    Waited a while to edit this one... the crash clip was traumatic to watch 😂

    Just bought a Fox Proframe, I haven't even taken it out for a ride yet. We live in southern Utah and have rocks of every shape and size everywhere, I am already ugly enough so I figured a light weight full face would be a smart purchase - hopefully I'll never put it into use for it's purpose. Thank you for the great video, I can sympathize with the shoulder injury, I had mine operated on a few years back - I still am a bit cautious.

      Ah yikes, mtb seems to claim a lot of shoulders! Hope the helmet doesn't have to be put to use :)

    I have similar experience. Crashed bad on Garbage at Burke. CT scan and hairline fracture to T1. Upgraded to Fox ProFrame. And Leatt neckbrace.

      Oh no! Good excuse to grab good safety gear though. I think neck brace is next for me!

    I'm thinking about buying a fullface, but i've heard some bad things about this helmet and Fox as a brand in general. I'm not sure who to believe...
    Glad you're okay :)

    Hope you are ok, Buu. I ended up getting Fuel Ex8 over Remedy8 a month ago but that was a tough choice! Now I’m Just getting used to 29’ tyres. I was looking for the same helmet but LBS had none in stock. Did you order’em online? I wants to try some on before deciding even the size.

      @buulam  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      Fuel Ex8 sounds awesome! I'd be interested in trying 29 one day. My LBS did get some stock on the helmets but for a long time they were very low on stock.

    My LBS didn't have any of these in stock in my size, I got a GIRO Switchblade which seems cool, just more spendy which is annoying. Beast mode in the gym, that's a lot of plates

      Haha the bike got a couple scuffs... I guess it was bound to happen sooner or later but it's too bad I didn't get a ride wrap applied before taking it on the trails. Live and learn!

    @Robin_Hood381 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Hey, it looked like your front wheel snapped to the right, right after you hit the apex of the roller. I think perhaps you crashed because your front wheel landed crooked and threw your bike off balance.
