Funnily enough, the few major crashes I've had have happened on easier trails (greens/blues). Maybe because we let our guards down and ride riskier when we feel our skills are greater than the trail difficulty? In any case, my first big crash definately taught me "all the gear, all the time", even on the greens, an investment I've never regretted.

Well said Brian.
I'm glad you walked away from that one with just scrapes. That one definitely came out of nowhere!
It did! Thanks Chris!
Def check your helmet for any hairline cracks after hitting your head on a crash. Helmets are usually made for 1 good impact.
Totally.
Man, you were blasting through there like quicksilver! That claymore ejected you! I'm so glad you're okay! 🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼
Thanks buddy!
I am glad you are alright and thanks for sharing the humor and positive attitude. You had me cracking up looking like gun smoke just exploded like a western, lol! ha ha!
Cheers Richard!
@@TheOutsiderMTB Are the trails really more challenging than Mammoth? The docent from our mtb clinic was at Deer Valley I think the following week from you. He hit a tree with his shoulder. His buddy had like 5 crashes and on the third injured his elbow. It just makes me think.
@@richardarabian1276 Wow sad to hear that. There's a lot more tight spaces and trees to contend with here for sure.
Ridden that trail many times, one of my favorites! But there definitely are some sniper rocks that'll get you. Very sharp small ones that you reawlly have to look out for, even more than on the trails I ride here in Phoenix. Ironic when you really want to be admiring the views but you have to keep your eyes glued to the trail, haha. That did look like a hard hit, I'm glad you're mostly ok!
No doubt! Thanks!
glad you're ok Tony. On to Solitude! Living vicariously from Phoenix, so tell your wife that 106 sounds good right about now, ugh
Oh man! - Hang in there Bryan!
I tell my kids you don’t wear the pads because you plan to crash. You wear them because you never know what will happen. The gloves and elbow pads can save the day. Glad you are in one piece. Sorry the trip was filled with a couple spills. Random rocks on trails suck. Good thing you could ride out.
Appreciated Jason - thanks.
Glad you are ok! Could have been much worse. And it was your fault, you didn't see the rock! You are lucky! Thanks for sharing the bad and the good! And was there a mark on your rim?
Haha true! No marks that I could see on the rim...crazy.
Sorry, laughed a bit after seeing your dusty face :) But ya, one of those freak accidents that sometimes just happens. Glad you walked away "mostly" fine though.
No worries - I had a chuckle myself. Haha
I was riding this easy trail in Nashville and clipped a tree at 2mph! Just not paying good enough attention. Looking forward to more videos!
Oh no! Hate those types of crashes.
Your bars were definitely crooked after the crash, just rode it like that…yea probably a little concussion.
Haha yeah I noticed that much later.
Best opening and thumbnail ever. (Glad you're OK!)
Haha thanks!
Glad u r ok ❤ crashing sucks but keep pushing ❤❤
Will do Rick!
Glade you got right up and walked away Tony.
Thank you!
Trails look amazing, glad you are ok 👍🏽
Thanks 👍
Where is this park located?
Park City, UT
Wow! Glad you could ride outta that "OK".
I know, right?
Imagine if your carbon bars busted and ruptured an artery. Lots of stories of this happening. (I am a first responder). Plus you are alone. I mostly ride alone and have crashed before. Aluminum bars haven't failed me. Just my own opinion. In Prescott, hikers put rocks and sticks on the trails. Always look forward to your videos! thanx
Interesting! Thanks Bill!
Glad you're ok man! Ride on!
I appreciate it!
Can you explain what trails you are allowed to ride E-bikes on around Park City,? As far as I can tell, most if not all the trails around Park City do not allow Eebs.
Same kinda thing in Southern California, unfortunately.
The only place they're allowed is at Deer Valley resort. They're pretty strict about it everywhere else. You can ride them on the other side of the hill in Heber, though. WOW trail, for instance is fun on an ebike.
There's no need to explain anything, you ask and respond your self
tony, you look so gnarly! glad you're mostly good.
Thank you!
thats why never ride alone. you could of been knocked out
Some of us ride more than just on weekends. Tough to do when you ride 8-12 hours a week.
meh, you'll come to eventually : )
You have been riding mountain bikes and e-bikes for a long time. I remember that just you cased and passed out for a few minutes. I completely agree that you never take any trail, even smooth looking rolling hill trails for granted. Always stay focused and looking ahead as much as possible and keeping your body positioned aggressively throughout your ride. Personally I don’t wear a full face but I definitely think that it’s important for new riders or riders that are choosing more technical trails to consider. I sometimes wear the lightweight TLD knee pads. It’s just a thin layer of neoprene (kinda like wetsuit material) but it’s has saved me from smashing my knee into the dirt.
Good points!
