Day 20-21: we've got a bleeder!

Sunday, January 07, 2007
Rode at Chestnut Saturday with Annie & Jason. Park was closed but they had a couple rails, a box, & a jump set up on the main run. Of course I don't hit rails but for me the box & jump were nice. I did the biggest method I've ever done & I actually reached around & grabbed toe edge on it, although it wasn't on purpose. Then we had dinner & when we came back out the snow was a little icier, so I was kinda hesitant about hitting the jump again. But of course I did, and it was a big mistake. I don't know if I freaked out or if there was a rut in the transition, but I went forward off the jump & landed on my chin & knees, bounced onto my back & hit the back of my head, then I think flipped back over onto my stomach. To make this story shorter, I busted my chin open, bruised my knees (again) and bit the side of my tongue. Jason wouldn't let me ride anymore after I got my chin all bandaged up, so we left, & the whole way back to Rockford they made fun of me 'cause my tongue got all swollen & I couldn't tawk vewy well. When I took the bandage off & finally saw the damage for myself, I almost passed out. I think I cried a little too.
Sunday I went to Devil's Head with Annie & Forrest & rode like an injured person who's afraid to fall. It was a pretty short day for me. Hopefully my chin will be somewhat healed so I can ride park next weekend, maybe going to Boyne Highlands in MI 'cause I have to go pick up a surfboard :)
