i rode TW on wednesday and did alot of jumping etc. and kept overshooting EVERYTHING!!!
after overshooting a few things on Split Rock (including the right side line over/ off the rock), and shuttling back to the top, i launched into the top rockgarden and landed my back wheel right on the tip of a good sized, pointed rock and heard a crack... i kept riding and the rest of the way down the trail and i heard some dragging/ crackling noise coming from my rear wheel.
it was dark, so i couldnt see if the tire was flat or what, but what i ended up finding out when i got home was that i had snapped my rear axle and cracked the outer part of the hub itself...
HOW THE HELL?!?!?
anyways, has anyone ever had this happen???, it was pretty gnarl when i saw the damage.
now i get to go spend $125 on my bike oh wait...
