fortunatly NO CARNAGE...just a few slip ups...carlin on his ass after attempting wallride hehe and me slippin out somewhere dodgy monty brakes
this is true. that was a fair effort mate.

and yeah, the lack of rider-initiated carnage was pretty cool... hopefully we can get some big air photos next week with the same thing.

Found a VERY nice stairgap (not too heavy - about 8-flat-8, with (I think) grass after the last step... Looked like a decent run-up too! Not too far from Central station.

Could be a great gap! 'Cause even if you screw up massive (a la Rob), you've got a grass and dirt landing at the very end of it. Looked like there was some other good terrain around the area too!

Well, the grass and dirt (not 100% sure it's like that, since I saw it from a distance) landing will definitely make any crash a lot more bearable, and judging by your ability, you probably won't have any problems with it, so you could go open-face.

But then again, there is no greater regret than owning good safety gear/armour/protection/full-face helmet, not wearing the stuff when you know you're going to ride aggro, then crashing and smashing yourself to bits. I know from experience (like having armour in my backpack, and then crashing while doing something that I should have had protection for...).

I hear ya. Hey, I'm no stranger to crashing (as many people will tell ya), and I totally agree with ya.

What I think is awful is owning safety gear, and not using it, then eating shit. Awful feeling.
