Here's part of a PM I received from James last night. I don't think he'd mind me sharing.

Quote:
...it cost me a broken right radius through to my wrist. Seasons over, no more throw aways :homer: The break was literally on impact, not even from the crash.. the get off was minor, but the bike and me couldnt take the drop.


Heal up quickly, MM. :thumbsup:

I hit that jump in practice, came up short by 4 ft and the bike handled it no problem. I hit it again Pro moto1 4 grand more RPM and I should have had my 4 ft. What happened? I flew waay higher and landed short in the same spot. How did that happen?? Well, guess the jump face was scraped between practice and Pro moto1... so my miscalculation... I didnt know the jump was altered, but hey it is what it is. That was one rough landing :bike:

Man that took big marbles. I was in second behind you just going over the start finish line when I looked over at where you were. I got to say you where so up there. I didn't see you land but I thought to myself man did he just do what I think he did, WOW just wished you made it. Hope you will make Moto Park take care .I have a short video where my wife just caught you in the air for a second. Let me know if you want me to send it.

Since I'm not Motoeye - I did NOT react fast enough to get a pic of you doing that jump....but I saw it, and it was spectacular, I think there was a 747 passing by real close - you were UP there! I agree - landing/getoff did NOT look all that bad - you dropped almost vertical though, completely lost all forward momentum on that jump, you just did a bounce and off you went - mind you it was a BIG bounce, but you were up and on the bike immediately trying to get going again.
I saw you do it in practice, and even though you were ina foot of mud, you almost had it dialed, then you hit it with much better track conditions and much more speed, yes - you should have had that jump no problem.
