Broken collar bone, two broken ribs and a punctured lung. Landed on a tree stump after an off over the table at the end of the Black Run. How many people has that bloody jump claimed?

The table is fine. I'm sure Spence will tell you as much, even after this.
The stump is GONE. It's cut off to ground level. It cannot hurt you.

The problem with the table is the riders, not the jump. It's not small, it's not easy, it needs respect.

I landed right on top of that stump last week, don't know how I didn't crash.
I find the jump kind of kicks you to the right on take off and the stump is there waiting for you.
