Hope it was nobody here...All I saw was a big crowd and somebody get taken away on a sled.  Heard stories of a massive overshoot and two broken legs.  Anybody have more details?  Wish you a good recovery if you are on here.

my thoughts exactly...two years ago i witnessed a gaper overshoot the table, go backseat, and break 2 vertebrae. Why can't they just learn?

Yeah dude it was crazy, people don't realize that you can't just case a jump like that or overshoot it and not have it be a big deal

yeah, 7 springs is the gaper epicenter of the mid Atlantic and there's no controlling who goes in the largest park, so we have parents taking their 6 year olde through the park and over the jumps??? because little joey wants to get his picture taken standing on top of the lip of the 70 footer. or you get the typical 12 year old who can hardly make it down the inrun to the jump who takes it halfway to the knuckle and breaks their leg or the racer kids who overshoot it by 80 feet to death in the flat. oh well pointless rant. haha.
