To be fair, crashing is the strongest part of my riding. I do it a lot.
More on the steep stuff coz I tense up.
Riding with Gavin (who you met at Redlands on the Commencal Meta AM) I had one of those crazy rebound crashes. On a local kind of steep track I though I was a hero and hit this awkward compression hard. The rebound kicked back violently and I went straight up the banking on the right, then did a back flip with the bike to the section below that was after the next switchback. Fell about 10-12 feet.
Gav thought it hilarious

Don't think I've ever seen you crash
Mostly because you've disappeared off in to the distance in the first 60 seconds of trail
