So if you could see your low point for this winter, would you want to see the video? I am talking anything.
Would you want to see the worst thing that will happen to you this winter?

No Way!!!!!
No thanks, I'll be seeing it soon enough...
flatlanders ask the silliest questions!!
and live in a town full of breweries!
Got this one last season, the guy on the Poo that you can see just when I flip over was moving slowly forward, crossing my line, so I thought I was gonna hit him-so I slam the brake in ~60 mph... The result speaks for itself.
However-the only thing that broke was one of the brackets för the handprotectors, so I got away pretty cheap-that time. Did something almost similar a couple of months later at the last ride of the season and broke the tunnel, a ski and the handlebar... (Lucky it was the last ride, but as they say-"never drink that last beer before you go home." I changed it to: "Never ride that last time of the season...")

I didn't think breaks really worked, your sled seemed to stop on a dime.

IF your talkin about a mild-moderate wipe-out, pretty sure we all want to see it
. no one wants to see anyone get hurt however. this question may be better suited at the end of a season so we all have an event to tie the question to. right now everyone might be assuming more tragic events as there lowest point. I will be the first to post my glorious wipe outs, and I hope that is as low as I get this winter.
I thought this was in regards to an avy.
In which case, I'd support seeing something of the nature.
People should have the fear of whoever put into them when it comes to avys.
Learn to respect them...not be ignorant to them.
The more we can understand about how they work, and what to do in such a case, the better it is for everyone.
Stupid and careless wrecks happen all the time, and if alcohol is involved, well, you deserve it.
But mother nature dictating her laws and drawing boundaries is a whole other thing.

Totally agree with that. I was caught in a small one last year...thankfully nothing too big. Still scares me, actually havent been riding since. I know it will make me a WAY more cautious rider next time i go out. I was pretty ignorant to them in the past and I got lucky.
