Top shock bolt sheared off. But we came up with a fix. Probably a pretty rough ride out for my friend. I imagine that a tree doesn't work as well as a fox float shock.

Funny, I remember his summit coming back out of the woods with a large stick trailing arm last year. Glad to see you guys are getting some riding in.

At least I know why my summit needed a splint there Jess.......
Ya that was kind of a sucky way to end a day, especially as nice as it was. Funny thing is that stick isn't too far off from the float.

I think we used as much rope on the shock this year as we did on the trailing arm last year. Both were great days.

That is pretty inventive. I had a slide retainer bolt come off last week, and my slide started to wrap around the inside of my track. I found a nut and bolt from my hand guard that worked, and got to ride the rest of the day.
