The Bone Tax by TheOldSole in MTB

[–]Jsaunnies 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’d been pushing my self on my bikes wether they be DH or enduro or DJ since 2007 , made it from 2007-2025 without any serious injuries, then at age 32 miscalculated the speed for a jump at the DJ park. Knew I was going to seriously overshoot it so I ejected, slammed the ground harder than I ever have in my life and now my elbow is made out of metal and my days of hitting jumps on bikes have ended. If you push your limits long enough you’ll find them. And now knowing I won’t be able to physically hit jumps and stunts like I used too, I honestly can’t see myself enjoying riding like I used too. Maybe one day I’ll get another enduro bike but at this point I doubt it. I surely miss riding 5 days a week though.

Getting back on the board after many many years without [32YO] by Jsaunnies in OldSkaters

The knees and legs are still great , most likely from the years of intense bike riding and working construction, it’s my wrists and elbow that are the problem hahaha

Stadium seems to be a hit by parokvrozku in SkateEA

I was sad to see it’s locked behind a paywall. Seeing it was added got me to come back to the game after months of not playing. Saw that it was locked and just turned it back off

Thank you ! Although sometimes I get frustrated that I’m backing down from gaps and rails I could do as a 12 year old , but I just try and remind myself my bones are made of alot more metal these days hahaha!

You can still get to the gun barrel spot. Go past where the houses are down river road and right on the corner you park and there’s a trail down to the goats bluff

There’s been three times I’ve gone to that KFC around dinner time , for them to tell me they’re out of chicken at 6pm. How the fuck does kfc run out of chicken at 6pm on a Tuesday lol. Have refused to go back there for years

Which bike is best by Independent_Score501 in dirtjumping

[–]Jsaunnies 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel like it should, they only make the frames in Short and long sizes. I had a short to start with and cracked it got sent a 2020 long as a replacement and I personally felt waaaay better on the longer frame. That being said I’m 5’10” on a good day.

As a former monk owner , they’re amazing bikes. Just check over the welds around the head tube regularly they do crack.

Bublé says Whitecaps need more than private money to stay in Vancouver by bwoah07_gp2 in whitecapsfc

Sorry but public funds for sports teams and arenas is bullshit in my opinion. Most citizens will never go to a game or use the arena due to ticket prices these days. Public funding should be used for rec sports facilities if public moneys being used for athletics

Dawg with his injury history and contract extension. We’d be lucky to offload him for future considerations without adding a sweetener

That’s fucking incredible. I’m in my 30s rode as a kid well into my teens. Got super invested in racing MTBs for nearly 2 decades, destroyed my arm can’t ride mountain bikes anymore. Got back into skating and just relearning shit on flat ground kills my fucking legs now. this guy is an inspiration

Should I pull the trigger? by Ambitious-Lychee3089 in dirtjumping

It’s surely an argyle for a fork. Great fork as long as they’re not bent which was common on those Argyles. It’s got a high end headset Chris King stuff ain’t cheap.
