    I am the one that shot the video and if you can view it in slow motion, his ass hit's the back tire right before he leaves the ramp and his left foot comes off the pedal right after.

    Id have to disagree. I see neither of what you stated. It was all caused by him using the rear brake

    Thanks for the lead in offer Dell. I'm probably going up this friday straight from work and camping with some people. But any attempt I make at flow drop will be after 8/8/2012. I have a trip to dagobah scheduled and don't want to miss it on account of a flow drop failed launch. Let me know when your planning on going up too mammoth. I picked up a pass last time I was there so I need to make it back up a few more times to get my moneys worth.

    Damn that xray looks nasty. Stay positive and lotsa heeling vibes coming your way.
    Suggestion, get a trainer stand for your bike when your doc gives you the ok. Getting the blood flowing really helped me after a bad break.

    Boba died in the same episode. I will probably see some jedi's on my trip and maybe some bigger versions of ewoks.

    That break looks pretty gnarly. If you rotate the picture to the right a little it kinda looks like the flow drop. Heal up brian, you should be ready for the winter series!
