I misjudged a table in the skiiercross, ended up getting big air and landing smack on the ramp of the next table, needless to say it rattled my bones.

Then i went and did a 7 foot drop (totaly massive man lol) onto flat ice. Small drop, but for some reason big pain (racing skis mayb?? doubt it tho) Top stuff!

Now any kind of one-foot-or-above drop or jump intimidates me.... sad but true.
