Death and Glory

 hah, wrong, I'm getting an 09 remedy!

 shhh

 actually it looks as tho your seat was set too high - dont eveerrrr leave your seat post high when youre jumping - or you will crack your seat post - you didnt have the correct measurement of post length inside the seat tube before you took the jump - that why it broke and yes there are warranties on bikes that you have damaged - lifetime warranty frames mean lifetime - but if they suspect it was a crash then you're screwed or the fact your seat post was et too high

 not sure what you mean by 'correct measurement of post length', or how that would affect the seat-tube failure, but that post was all the way down. It's a 15.5 inch frame, and the seat tube changes diameter to accommodate the front drlr (snapped right next to the weld where this change happens), so there's not a whole lot of room for the post. I needed enough length to be able to pedal the thing, so that was as low as I could set it. Like I said though I have no clue why that would lead to frame failure anyway

 dude the post was not all the way down if the post was all the way down you wouldnt see the post what are you talking about -all you would see is the seat- you have a long post then you have to CUT the post so it sits inside the tubing all the way if you're jumping - if not then yea that height is fine for Cross Country not Jumping - ...and its the number one cause of frames snapping - you dont know what you're talking about bud - and yes it did snap exactly at the base of your seat post tube -

 Hey, no need to get upset.

First off, this is my bike, not yours, I know that the post was all the way down: like I said, the seat tube changes diameter, so I couldn't push it down any farther, even though there is still some sticking out on top. I keep the seat post at this length (ie I didn't cut it any further) so that I can extend it to a comfortable riding height (this is about 2 or 3 inches lower than where I would set it when pedaling). Think about it: it still sits fully inside the seat tube.

That said I am still curious-- can you explain why the position of the seat post weakens the frame under the type of stress you'd get from a landing?

 mackm you're chatting shit. the reason it snapped is all to do with the suspension and the forces involved in landing a drop that big.

 if u didnt land on ur goddam ass u wouldnt have snapped the tube the hinge above the shock would break first

 Interesting theory, but you're dead wrong-- I ride clipless so my feet never come off the pedals--landed on them and nothing else, save my hands of course
