Standing water is bad

rode over a small puddle when leaning over pretty hard. off I went. nothing broke, cept a frame slider and a peg. fun day over all. many guys crashed that day cuz the rain.
rode when the track was wet, it was all fine. its the worst when its still wet in some area.

why the fk were u riding when it was wet

[sunnyjason]

@Retso the track was mostly dried.

Thought it was a bit harsh myself, the speed you were doin with that bit of water you shouldn't have went down.. Unless you can blame tyres or suspension set-up. Or maybe it's worse than I can see in the footage.... Oh well, good you walked bro..

[sunnyjason]

@r1gester the speed I was doing wasnt fast, but I had very big lean angle. its hard to see on the vid. I rode completely wet track before this vid was recorded, didnt have problem. its when it starts up dry and you start pushing.

@sunnyjason At first I was like, how did that happened? Then saw the slow-mo and your comment. You are riding twisted. Your head is over the tank and not off to the side facing the turn. This body position you used gives very little rubber on the asphalt. Work on proper body position and you'll see the differences. BTW, what track is this? No corner workers?

[sunnyjason]

@vegasstreetriders mind you my camera is on the right side of my helmet so it may seem like my head is over the tank but actually I was hanging off.

its MAM, there were corner workers.

I didnt show the rest of the vid when I getting off the track and the workers were waving red flags at me thinking I was someone else.

[breethwithme]

frame sliders saved my bikes ass 2 times already i wouldn't ride without them they work period

[fapposkid]

frame sliders FTW!

[LiterR1]

Water not good on a track ,good to see that you walked away, frame sliders :). you were very composed after a crash, most people panic and over react.

No corner workers? whats up with that

[vegasstreetriders]

@sunnyjason Oh yeah, I forget the fish makes it look so. Great footage BTW.
