      I use a Sony zv1 and go pros. I have a small bendy leg tripod for the Sony and go pros on poles. I make my own stakes to drive into the ground then stick a go pro pole on top. They all need to be small so I can ride with it all on my back.

    I’m sorry to say but I think this tendency will hurt the sport long term and many young lads along the way. Someone has to draw a line somewhere and limit the size of these gap jumps… Make the jump as big as you want but put a tabletop so riders don’t kill themselves… Anyway my two cents. Just glad you and your bike are ok! 😉

    • @bestdayevermtb2
      @bestdayevermtb2  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I understand what you are saying. Once upon a time doing a jump was seen as extreme. Now a back flip is not even considered a trick that scores points in events. I do worry about young people ending up paralysed from trying more extreme tricks and jumps.

    As someone who's 10years younger than you, don't do jumps. It's just not worth the risk. The safest trails I do are the steep techy ones as I'm going so slow when I crash 😅

    • @bestdayevermtb2
      @bestdayevermtb2  2 ปีที่แล้ว

    • @bestdayevermtb2
      @bestdayevermtb2  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      I actually looked at the fall frame by frame and yes I did put my hands forward but didn't put my hand down flat but rather sideways then rolled. Didn't hurt my wrists. I did badly break my wrist once so try to avoid landing on it. It is funny though because I always crash on my right side no matter what happens.

    • @marcelknop1
      @marcelknop1 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      @@bestdayevermtb2 Ha- sounds like you've got some of that Jui Jitsu fall technique sorted then. Trick is to use the side of your hand and arm to roll your body on to your side/back and break your fall. A bit like a round parachute landing except starting with your hands rather than your feet.
      When I fall I'm like a cat except in the inverse. I always seem to instinctively turn to land on my back... which is not always a good thing [edit] Thinking about it, that's probably some of that Jui Jitsu muscle memory coming in to play, where the aim is to turn to land on your back.
