Fogelsode #20: Enjoying the Long Days!

Mar 23, 2010
by Jack Fogelquist  
Daylight Savings Time is upon us, and what can I say…it ROCKS! Nothing like getting the chance to ride everyday, regardless of work or school schedules! So it’ll be of no surprise to you that there have been seshes at Post Office everyday of the week. It doesn’t get any better than that!

More details and video inside!Well almost. It could have been better if our buddy Brad didn’t break his ankle. There’s this cool new transfer off the new wood lip onto the landing to the right. Brian Miller has been killing it, throwing huge 360s and tailwhips over it. Brad wanted to try to ally-oop 3 it, which would be super crazy because he would be turning left off the lip, but have to transfer over to the right. He went for it, transferred over perfectly, but ended up over rotating and over clearing. He landed on his feet, but the way he landed caused his left ankle to break in 3 places. He handled it like it wasn’t a big deal at all, and ended up driving home later that day! He’s going in for surgery on Monday to get it reset, so hopefully it won’t be too long before he’s back in action! Get well soon Brad!

Towards the end of the week we realized that with a new berm and a few rollers here and there, we could have a little pumptrack that would weave through parts of the existing lines. By that evening it was done, and after a classic sundown sesh on the jumps, we turned it over to a big pumptrack session. It ended up being a great (and tiring) time, finding new lines and racing friends. With the warmer weather, the longer days, and events like Sea Otter around the corner, the “off-season” is beginning to transition into the on-season!
