I was riding down a trail called super highway which is a steep straight rock garden with tables. The second table is garbage and put my weight over the front tire so when I hit the transition the bike just stopped and I flew into the rocks. helmet shipped/cracked on impact and hit my shoulder breaking my clavicle. Walked out off the trail (1.5 miles) to the pavement and rode the mile back and then chilled the rest of the day thinking it was just a pulled muscle. yesturday (the 2nd) it was hurting worse so I went and had it x-rayed. Sure enough broken. Its the end of the season though and I should be healed by snowboarding season (my main sport). Before NW cup starts next year though I will definitely be purchasing a Leatt to go with the new brain bucket.
I don't have a leatt now because frankly I was just starting out and didn't expect to improve as much as I did in a single season. Getting a full DH rig (And keeping my current for all mountain xc) because I got some local sponsors that want me to travel to compete next summer
How do you like the gopro man? I LOVE mine and have tons of videos on youtube vimeo and pinkbike.com
Well i will probably get the Go Pro HD too if the new iPhone looks junk.
30minutes away from the press conference and even the the words "iPhone 4S" and pics have leaked on Apples website. So i guess that's that over and done with, no fancy new IP5 design. Now they are going to have to wow me with some secret iPhone4S features, either software or hardware.
