  #1  Face Off, Literally  Posted 10/05/2010 @ 13:05
At Chatham dry slope last week, coming to the end of the night...

First jump, Indy grab, landed, second jump, roast beef, landed, third jump, some good air, landed, approached rollercoaster box, backside boardslide, landed, approach final box, toe edge, arms flung behind, legs in air, face first onto plastic.



going in to the office morning with a mashed up face, shirt and tie, fun times.


any of you had any nice injuries? :-)

Ouchies! That's gotta sting eh? I hope it heals quickly dude...!

No facial injuries for me, just the usual ankle injuries, ya'know the stuff you can't see. BUT last season I aquired the below after a sworn off (by a snowcat) tree root stabbed in my bumleg... that hurt and was less than comfortable to sit down for sometime

well, the scabbing and nastiness of it has long passed, however I have a slightly scarred nose and some red scratch marks scarred on my chin... war wounds I guess!

I'm glad I didn't hit that tree root with my face...
