IOLO Posted March 7, 2011 Report Share Posted March 7, 2011 in the deep dark WET winter of Quadra Island, BC, Canada -2009.. i was hiking alone and came across a HUGE rock that over time had split and made a huge gap. i usually dont like the BIG TGS style moves, i prefer technical stuff.. BUT... seen as it was on natural stuff and covered in green slime and moss, it kinda stuck in my head. so i tried it. after i had hopped to the edge, felt my rear tire slide a little on some slime and then leaned forward, for a very very small fraction of time i questioned myself . anyway, the main point is i got across, and didnt fall down the 40ft hole of doom and literally die. i did rip my lever off, mangle the rear wheel and mince my shins though direct link below CLICK ME !!! also can be found on my website www.arancook.wordpress.com just found it online, thanks for the little edit paul ! aran. _____ 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sprog! Posted March 7, 2011 Report Share Posted March 7, 2011 I did not laugh. I was almost sick, just looking at the speed of the pedal when it came back and hit your shin... then it worried me even more when you collapsed literally looked like you died Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
