remfactor Posted January 28, 2014 Posted January 28, 2014 I think all safety gear will have its limit where it isnt designed to work on the severity of the crash or impact it takes and also where it might cause injury else where. I never went onto the motocross track without mine and when i had it on a felt alot more confident in my ability to push abit harder, without it i was hesitant to hit the bigger jumps... that too plays a role in crashing or not - confidence. Case in point 1 - I shattered my navicular into a few pieces and dislocated my 4th and 5th mettatrsal in my right foot when i crashed 13 months ago, i was wearing an R8000 pare of Gaerne mx boots, the severity of the impact went well past what the boots are made for. Case in point 2 - I dont think Trey Canaards neckbrace could have been much help with the severity of this crash... http://www.basherdesigns.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/01/IMG_30.jpgStrangely enough, Trey looks like he is taking more beating than Ryan Morais on top of him, but he came back strong in 2013 and will be even stronger when he comes back in 2014 after yet another injury. Unfortunately for him, Ryan ended his career right there and then. Go TC41!!!!!
