| I am still hearing about a white one that supposedly crashed after you did, sounds even worse than yours, also heard of a XP that crashed on 75y this weekend also. | |

| There was a group we ran into on a couple of different Red trails and they had a white XP or two and several S's. I think the one leading them was on a white one. Hope there all ok too. | |

| If you hit 75Y with no seat belt you are VERY STUPID!! However if you hit it with just lap belts like we did your just a DUMBASS!! I'm very lucky to be typing this right now I learned my lesson the hard way. | |

Don't beat your self up to bad. I've also got a bad habbit of just wearing my lap belt and not the shoulder straps.. I always say I'll put the shoulder straps on if I get to something bad. To be honest I almost never do. If the other guy wrecked on that trail with NO belt at all its a wonder he is a live. BTW if you try that again be sure someone films it next time Oh and wear your shoulder straps | |

| I do the same thing 8-ball, and seems its never bad enough to wear the shoulder belts until its too late. probably wouldnt be a bad idea if we harnessed up and wore a helmet. I have great hind site!! | |

| Glad you all walked away, machines can be repaired / replaced -people not so much.
I only where my harnesses when its bad but I only wear my helmet when I have to - might be time to rethink the strategy | |

| myself i think you should wear them all the time you never know when something is going to happen going down the road at a fast pace are something breaks that causes you stop fast or flip you never know when. i do wear mine but not a helmet all the time like i should. one lucky time taught me to wear belts did helmet for a while but it was hot need to get back to wearing it | |
