Hah! I win... Harper was betting that you would have no part of this
thread whatsoever. But I knew, as a pro yourself, you would not be able
to resist.

Me, I fall like an amatuer. And often like an elephant. And, come to
think of it, just often.

So far my best fall was when I was up at Whiteface, i got riding to
fast, my feet slipped off, I glided for a good ten feet and was launched
more than 10 feet through the air and into the dirt. It didn't hurt one
bit, but it was sure fun!

Crashes are fun, unless you get hurt. Theres nothing like flying through
the air and getting the wind knocked out of you. I love a good crash.

oh yeah, I agree with that one.

I had a great couple of crashes this weekend at the MUni weekend. You
know, the ones where you fall off dramatically w/ 30 people watching,
and get up saying "That was FUN!". This cements into the minds of
everyone that you're crazy.

my best crash this weekend was one where I cleaned a somewhat technical
MUni line with a huge hill on one side. the line was in a bend of the
trail, so that after coming out of the line I couldn't turn in time to
keep up with the trail. I bailed down an almost-cliff, and ended up
landing on my butt with my uni still between my legs. I think I flew
about 7 feet down the cliff before I landed and slid to a stop thanks to
a rock.

oh yeah, it was fun.

I also must agree...crashes are fun, especially the ones where your just
going along and unexpectedly get flipped onto you back and then slide
along for ages etc etc
or when your going to fast and your feet just slip off the pedals and
you coast for a bit then go flying, as long as they dont hurt crashes
are almost the best part!

yeah, they're fun until you get hurt

i was uniing in a fundraiser (walk/run) and i was going way too fast,
got launched off (wearing no pads, it was a 3-mile thing on roads) and
landed in a super-duper roll, but my elbow that i rolled on was
realllllly sore for a few daysj

a falling question:
i was doing pull gliding w/ my friend about a month and a half ago, and
i fell off the back onto my unprotected elbow
it still hurts to the touch in a 1 square centimeter spot (this is 1.5
months after the fall) and it hurts almost as much as when i initially
canged it
could the tip of my elbow have a little chip or something?

I doubt it, probally just bruised. I did the same thing hitting the tip
of my elbow on a doorknob 2 months ago, it still hurts when I push on
it.

I have a silver-dollar hole on my palm and a heel bruise so grevious I
gotta walk on my freaking toes. Muni falls onto rocks and shale are no
more fun than big rock climbing "screamers."
