Crash - Broken Wrist
RCF - November 2012 - Broke my wrist going over the bars on step-up.

The bike looks ok. I look like I got hit by a car tho. They did xrays of my shoulder , wrist, knee, and both ankles. So, all things considered, I'm good. I saw the rear end pop up on the video too. Guess I wasn't paying attention and didn't set up back enough. Glad I was wearing my neck brace for that one.

Damn KID..you can see the rear end compress hard in the first few feet of the step up, then rebound really fast as the front end leaves the end of the ramp. The rest is history...glad that is the extent of your injuries bud. I think that bitch is still still too short and steep for the speed we are hitting it at on these long travel bikes. Thinking about adding a few more boards again or lowering the angle..is your rig ok?

Holy crap, surgery sucked. I guess the break was way worse than initially thought and it took the surgeon three hours to put the end of the bone back together. There is a big plate and 6 screws - or at least that is what I remember seeing in the x-ray. I'll get a copy and post it up. The holiday made it hard to schedule the surgery, so I had to wait for about a week and a half. The bone had already started to heal incorrectly by the time the surgeon got in there, so he had to re-break it. I hope this heals fast. Can't wait to ride.

my folks didn't know the security cameras were rolling and they got your crash on film. www.youtube.com/watch?v=k04ZTUPQGlk
