Hardest I ever hit the ground.I may have hit it harder but that was 20 years ago.This one was bad though.The bike died as I left the jump face pinned in 3rd which it prolly pretty deep into 4th on stock gear,I run one tooth bigger on the counter.When landing with clutch in the wheel was locked like a rock was in the sproket.
It was all over then,over the bars and slammed a bunch.I recall my head hitting very hard and seeing the dirt going by super fast then a massive hit to my right side that at that instant made my thank the vest.
It was reset and reboot then,you all know the drill,
