Road Gap Oopsie

My friends first time on a downhill bike, and his first time at the park... He didn't realize he was coming up on a huge road gap. He went for it anyway. #failofthemonth

haahhahahahahaha props

Technically, he stomped the shit out of it. No wonky air or bailing or skidding out landing. Just took a bad hop really.

I thought he was going to roll it and stop. I was more speechless, and jaw dropped when it happened. That's why I didn't say anything. I ran down there after the video cut

That is Snowshoe Mtn, West Virginia. (part of the PRO / GRT DH course.) --and when taking a friend out for the first time you should be leading? ;-)

What is a road gap doing on a blue square trail? What am I missing here?

Parkbuilder72 (Nov 30, 2015 at 0:23)

the man with the red Flag

the blue square trail breaks off before the road gap.

Road gap was put in for Gravity series race. Blue trail as stated is a right hand turn before that.

I love Snowshoe. Just got back form National's last month. I'd love to go and hit some of their DH stuff.

patch92 (Sep 8, 2015 at 10:52)

He had no idea what he was about to hit. Lol

morpheous (Nov 30, 2015 at 13:05)

You would feel differently had he broken his neck. You should have been leading with a newb. (and of course you should not have been on the race course as it was closed that day.)

Bike for sale... Only a hand full of miles on it

umm did the guy filming know the rider in front? Actually, it doesn't matter. The guy didn't even give a shit to see if the guy was OK. Man that's harsh. :\

Parkbuilder72 (Nov 30, 2015 at 0:22)

read bevore talking bull shit !!!

rcrdrvr (Nov 30, 2015 at 23:36)

Handled it like a Boss. Prob wanted to lead, balls man, balls.

LiquidSpin (Dec 1, 2015 at 4:44)

Parkbuilder: I wasn't talking bullshit. Where do I need to read where it describes what happened afterwards because I missed it. After watching the video the first time it looked like the rider behind wasn't worried and just turned around. It may have looked that way but I take back my post if I offended anyone. My bad.

rcrdrvr (Dec 1, 2015 at 4:50)

He said he was kind of in awe...so was everyone who watched probably...really did look slow enough to roll off instead he hopped at the last moment. Also, the bike sounded like it got hurt more than him, not that bad of a crash, except for a good ball blaster.
