 I don'y know why everyone hates clipping in, (I personally don't do it but if I was racing at events like this I'd consider it). If you really think you would have enough time to bail mid air in this circumstance your a dip shit. Unless your rolling into the jump ready to bail you wouldn't have enough time to get your feet to clear the bars.

Either way your going to have a nasty crash at that speed, The rider was just incredibly lucky that they were wearing a neck brace.

 All respect, it's amazing how fast you can get your feets over the bars when you think you're about to die. If they're clipped in, good luck.

 So everyone in this thread who's saying clips are stupid are actually saying they'd rather not win because theres a chance they'll stack.

 I saw a number of people wipe out on this section. This was the only one with clips. The others fell because they were not clipped in and their feet slipped off the pedals.

 Racing DH clipped in, like a playing a game of Russian Roulette?

Ah well, at least she survived this one, I wonder if she's a little hesitant to ride with her feet clipped in now, or she's just really hardcore and this crash didn't sway her one bit Wink

 a friend of mine just twisted her knee because she was clipped in. I'd never, ever, ever clip myself in on a MB. I know it's suppose to give you more speed but when you have to bail and can't ... that's scary shit.

 She came out of this crash pretty well. Only a scratch on her shoulder and some stiff muscles. She is racing in the ProGRT in Port Angelus this weekend... clipped in.

 YES.. That is why clip in's SUCK. I get that your doing DH but still I can keep my feet planted on my pedals. Just ride with long pegs.
