Perfect reason to wear a neck brace right here.

On RM at least, there was zero buzz about this race. Was surprised to see the video posted on facebook.

What were the results of the DH?

I'll just assume that gubby won the 4X.

1st-Gwin.
2nd-Riffle.
3rd-Hannah.
Graves got 4x.

Also,seeing that crash of Mitch in person makes me value my Leatt even more.

David K was 4th and EC 5th.

Mick came to a complete stop on the course, Never seen anyone so fast in fontana.

Damn, maybe I should buy a Leatt instead of new wheels...

 

[Tayrob]

Any one have pics form the race? Preferrably of Cat 2?
Also,since Stik posted 4th and 5th might as well post 6th place which my frined and newly sponsered Yeti rider Tyler got! Second national level pro race ever!

looks MR losts direction and clipped his bars on that rock on his right before stacking. Damn lucky he didn't snap his collarbone. Wonder if that brace saved it...

I thought it was common e-spec that neck braces actually make it easier to break the collarbone? But the upside was the breaking a collar is better than breaking a neck.
