David is a nut case, if it werent for him I probably wouldn't hit half the jumps I do... next time we go to this track I am gonna nut up and hit the big 100+ ft triple.

With a Buddy like that I would get right on his tail and follow him over. Guaranteed you will make it. Don't even watch anything but him.

I don't like to follow people because I am heavier than they are, but when David tells me how fast to go I trust his opinion.

Oh heck yea that would be a Very Big factor in your case! You make the Dale look like a little toy.

I crashed my Cannibal over the weekend and now have found 5 cracks in the frame all are up front, I will post pics up tomorrow. By the way here's how it happened going down the trail pretty wide and flat straight there's a shallow water hole in the trail, I'm in 3rd gear pinned on the back wheels to keep from getting wet and the back wheels hydro plane in the water sending me out of the trail I pop a tree with the right front wheel, and I go flying about 10 to 15 ft off the left side.

Sounds like a rough landing. I hope you're alright.
