Pro found a stump on first ride

[NeilV]

so i took my pro out this weekend for the first time and managed to plow into a tree that was broken off just below the snow. i was very impressed at how well it stood up to the hit. i will need a plastic for the front and a new bumper. the lower a arm took part of the impact as well but it only kinked the tubing, and it wasnt pushed back at all. managed to get it on camera from two angles too.

Wow that sucks man. you should really do your helmet strap up.

 

[jay]

did you cut the tree all the way down

 

[Summiteer]

Well that's not very good. Lucky you didn't rap your melon off the stump.

Never meet a tree that was ever nice, hope your o.k. she does look like she took the blow pretty good.

Ha. i actually did bounce my face off off it. ended up with a pretty good lump on my forehead and a cut under my eye. but a least i didnt break my goggles...

and no we couldnt cut it off. we didnt have a big enough saw

What jackass cuts a tree that high and leaves it or was the tree just snapped off?

haha I thought the same thing, but it looks to be snapped, as I dont see any saw cuts (i dont think) :/
