Default Rolled my stick over 10 foot drop.....

Can you say gut wrenching? I met TJeeperman for some wheeling this afternoon and to give the stick its first 'real' run and not 20 minutes later I go stupid and push a side hill way to far. Normally that is not a problem as it just means a flop on the lid but just under the truck was a 10ish foot drop.
Are you read to see the carnage?








Not for the weak of stomach.....










I'm serious!










Kevin these things freaking RULE! I just finished going over it with a fine tooth comb and aside from the bolt that the broken link end was on having a light bend it is still rock solid.

10 foot? that had to be at least 20. anyway, I'm shocked at how well it held up too. Now if I could only find gear cases that can withstand 200lbs of impact I'd be set

If you'd stop eating so much Taco Bell, Rob, you may not have that problem in the future!

Did you see the size of that Cosby kid Digler dropped off at the pool? Something had to prepare him to give birth to that thing!
