Zilla at Coos Bay - 7 or 8 ft of air! (then bailed) |

Spent a long weekend down at Coos Bay, OR riding the dunes in |
|
July on my Zilla along with my cousin (also on a zilla) and some |
|
friends. First time I've tried jumping my zilla more than about |
|
a foot. Ended up getting way more air on the last one than I |
|
had expected :o and couldn't stick the landing (see end of the |
|
vid for that one). |

|
Any damage to the Zilla? |

No serious injurys, luckily. My lower back got a little bruised, |
|
cause that's what hit the ground first, but I rolled pretty well |
|
out of it. Bike didn't get to messed up, just a couple little |
|
things. The left side steering arm, where the tie rod attaches |
|
to the spindle, got bent up almost 90 degrees, from the front |
|
wheel dragging in the sand as it rolled. Steering was all screwy |
|
after that, but still ridable. Also the headlight cage got |
|
really bent over. Other than that, everything else was still |
|
ok. I straightened out the headlight cage with a rubber mallet |
|
when I got home, and the little steering arm is pretty easily |
|
replaced. Could have been a lot worse! |

I just had a flashback of me going off a dune & my chest hitting |
|
the gas tank & breaking everything (gas tank & a rib or two). |
|
These things are gonna kill me yet. |
