That was looking very cool while it lasted my man!!! Not to worry, like they say, nothing ventured, nothing gained. Can't wait to see you out there next time.
yeh that's annoying when that happens. I've buggered my wrist yesterday at Wylde (I was on the HT) going down Exile of all places.. ridden that unteem times and yet like you, lost the front and off I went (a 3000km front tyre is likely the reason for no grip). Left brake lever (SLX) snapped. I'll be off for a few weeks. Glad you're ok minus the scuff on the arm - bikes are repairable :)
What PSI do you think you were running Gareth? I've been a few times and certainly had more control with lower tyre pressure, but just letting the air out by feel rather than sticking to a certain psi lol

Thanks Mark!! 🙏
Unlucky mate. You will bounce back.
Going for a ride tomorrow!! 😃
dude 5:58, man I felt that. Glad you're ok
Thanks @bodo_mtb !! Yeah I’m all good now, ready to do some more shredding. Thanks for the concern!! 🤟

Thanks Marc!! We both got a bit unlucky🤘
No that poor SLX shifter, hope that your arm is fine and keep shredding bro
Out with the old in with the new!! 😁
Woah! That crash came out of nowhere. You were going soooo great too. Glad it wasn't that bad
Thanks Todd I’ll have to go out there and do a part 2!!
I washed out here on my left side, stopped had a breather went back up top then washed out on my right side. Called it a day after that 😂
🤣 I wish I got a second chance, super gnarly when you’re trying to build speed over there
It is groomed and hard packed best just after rain, I run very low front tyre pressure to help with grip. 😁👍👍
Thanks Gareth, definitely low tire pressure is something I didn’t have, thanks for the tip!! 😁

Ouch! That's gotta sting!
Hope you heal up mate, get the bike fixed and get back out there!
Mate I put hot water over it and couldn’t even move or feel my arm!! Thanks for the concern!!
Just realised I go to the same bike park wearing the same helmet and the same goggles
🤣 That’s too good!!
