    I was on the rattlesnake trail and half ways there is a ramp that cuts through a switchback. It is probably the biggest air gain ramp there is on that trail because I can do the small ones but this one I failed it. Scraped my left leg and all bruised up. My balls landed on the post so that hurt the most but just for a while. I felt good though if that makes sense. Now something is wrong with my bike because the chain won’t catch on the 2nd ring and my left brake lever is all bend outward. I will attempt this once my bike is fixed.
    BTW I never BMX so jumping off ramps is new to me ;)

    Good to see that your not hurt too much.

    As for shifting, I'd double check the cable housing ends to make sure they are all seated right. When the bike gets all mixed up the cables can get pulled out of their spot and not reseat correctly.
