Sumthin Sunday Wk 15- Road Gap gone wrong!

I'm sure everyone saw the photo of Brad jumping over the road in an earlier post. Well, Brad went to do it again and it just didn't work out right. The jump washed his legs out cuz of the lip. Here's the sequence:


After he hit I immediately put my camera down and rushed to him. I took off his board while alex lifted his arms up to help him breath. Brad started choking on some spit, we all though it was blood until it actually came up. there was a serious worry about internal injuries because he hit this snowbank right on his left side right in the gut. I rushed him to the ER. Luckily after some tests we found out nothing was broken or damgaed. Just some muscle tears and bruised ribs. He is seriously super lucky. If he would've landed straight on his back, he would've been paralyzed.

Moral of the story, don't come up short on road gaps.

Brad is recovering well and will be back on the board next week.
