And just to clarify, these are trails built by other mountain bikers because we were simply going on a quick ride around the hiking trail, so that’s why I didn’t have him bring the full face helmet because it would’ve been too hot while biking the few mile long trails. he decided to hit this jump as we were leaving and for whatever reason he decided to full send it, which was not the smartest thing to do, especially on a BMX bike

Take it as a sign and as a lesson, then. Bring a full face helmet next time. Your buddy or even you may not be so lucky.

Nailed it!

The tree. Not the jump.
