Constructive criticism - once you know you're going to go off, you have to commit to it just like anything else. Stand the bike up and go straight off, no turning, no hard braking, no immediate re-entering the track. By looking at the video, the main reason you crashed is that you were still trying to turn and/or get immediately back on the track. If you had stood the bike up and gone straight off you would've been fine (IMO).

Food for thought.

Thanks Glenn! I was trying to stay on the track, but as soon as I hit the dirt - because I had lean angle - it went down. You are right, if I would have stood the bike up straight and rode it out I would have been okay. But at 100+ it just happens so fast and my instinct is still "try and save it". Not to mention this was only my 2nd time running the full course, so I think maybe I got kinda lost because i am used to turn 11 from running the north course so much, not 7.

Haha yeah, the bike only flipped once. When it landed the camera mount popped off and the camera rolled a few times. GoPro or go home!

Was waiting for the crash...just fast forward to it. The flip was nice touch. 100 mph lay dwn. What does the bike look like?
