54 and and going for broke on Crabapple Hits

As I get older I seem to get braiver, Good? Bad? as they say in Monty Python, I'M NOT DEAD YET! Took me 2 weeks to get my head able to hit #4, Dreams every night of clearing this massive jump. Friends said I could do it, so I did, just on my own terms, no pressure, just some kids thinking I wish that was my dad! :) Crankworx, 50+ train Who is in? hit me up

 Good job on working through your mental block. It's important to not pressure yourself into hitting stuff but feel ready and in control. You were really clean on those jumps. Fantastic.

 Nice way to trust your ability and get it done. over 50 myself and still giving the young guns something to strive for as they get older. check a quick video search - snow summit OMB sometime you still hit the dirt. damn again way to fly with style OMB
