nice vid. Nice drops too. So do you guys bottom out on those drops or does you body hurt when you land???? Never done any big drops but when I see people doing them it reminds me of coming up long on a big double and realizing that the pain is coming.......
Good stuff and thanks for sharing.

Who's the guy on the miniature sled?
It's the "Hot Wheels" version of a sled....
Great Video, how is the leg?

.thanks ruff. landing the drops are pretty smooth, landing the drops incorrectly tend to hurt a little. i ignored a big tip from jesse and landed in a previous divit giving the rear end a little boost over my front end
i think comin up long to a flat on a jump just might discourage me a bit more however.

thanks lee, the leg is unfortunately pretty much the same as you saw it if not worse. havent seen the doc yet. i cant stretch the calf muscle to a normal standing position. i have to have my leg up kinda, well i guess i could wear heals, that would help, well my leg at least, not my dignity.

Your leg looked pretty banged up, get to the Doc (not Doc Baker) and get it checked so you don't miss any spring riding.
We need more endo video to laugh at in August....LOL

Well $4.50 a gallon and the equivalent of being pulled over twice (boarder crossings) a hotel stay minimum Friday night all to discover the mountain is socked in this weekend so no Pemby Ice Cap and you could have had the same snow conditions at Gold Creek and spent the money saved (by not going to Canada) on dinner for the whole fam at the Outback Steak House Friday & Saturday night which the wife and kids would appreciate and still had more money in the bank and hall passes to go on a sunny weekend - I ask you why you'd go out of town this weekend??

C'mon Rosco, loosen up the purse strings!!
The Party at the PemHo is well worth the price of admission. Dont be such a fuddy duddy!! No wife and kids here, and my playmate is joining me, so no future hall pass needed. And Outback Steakhouse? If I'm missing on THIS weekend, it better be at least Daniels or El Gaucho!!
Well I'm sure you'll have fun. In my life it's a lot more fun to take the wife out for dinner and drinks than spend a cold day from home sitting on my sled waiting for a break in the clouds that never happens. I'd save that for the sunny weekends! And hey Daniels Broiler has nothing on a Bloomin' Onion!
I'm certainly not as hard core as I use to be and that's because I've spent the socked in weekend in Canada, or up on Baker drinking beer on my sled waiting for the day to be over so I could hit the local bar in Canada and watch the waitress' puzzeled look as I ask for a Mac & Jacks. As I hit 30 I realized I had better things to do on a crappy weekend.
Besides you have to admit, there's nothing like sleeping in your own bed at the end of any day. So it takes some good conditions to get me away.
My $0.02

I'm with ya Rosco....not interested in driving 12 hours to sit and watch people rebuild their clutches at the bottom of a hill waiting to see.
As for the steak, the bloomin onion is good, but Jak's is my fav for some beef....and while you're in the area of issaquah, might as well hit Stan's BBQ...good stuff!!

Well after reading my post again this morning I realize I was a little negaitive and for that I apologize to ModSledr. I'm not trying to say my life is better, it just takes some good conditions to get me to travel up there. Yes, I'm afraid I've become one of those sledders.
Jak's huh - never eaten there, but I love a good steak dinner on a Friday or Saturday night!
Update on the leg!
soooo after almost a week of limping around the house and not working i decided to go to the Doc's today. turns out the calf muscle is torn and i'll need another week on my butt. but hopefully after this vicodin filled video game playing week i'll be back on the saddle and ready to put my adrenal glands to work once more.
and for those who missed it or just plain need another laugh here it is again.

Well sorry to hear your leg hasn't gotten better, but at least you didn't break anything!! And I guess if you're going to get hurt it's best to do it at the end of the season.
I hope you have a speedy recovery.

Downer dude...from the way you were walking it didn't look like it was going away overnight...hence the suggestion to stuff it in the snow...
follow the doc's recommendations...nothing to rush...next thing you'll be icing is the blister on your thumb from the game controller...
Whiners......
Sounds Like A Class Of Junior High School Kids Getting Ready To Run A Mile........all Complaining About What They Have To Look Forward To For A Short Period Of Time......
Look Past The Part That Sucks And Think Of What You Accomplished!!!
I Like The Bumps From The Point That 50% Of The People Or Better Won't Touch The Hill Because Their Back/arms/legs Hurt From The Bumps.......most People Give Up On Any Riding Due To The "bumps".....
