IMO it would make sense to get the EDC pump in your case and install it on the water bottle mount (if your bike has one), then you can run both. I currently run the 100cc pump with multitool and have a Snik device on pre order to run in the steerer tube.

SNIK in the steerer, OneUp pump w/tools attached to water bottle cage. Job DONE. I will be buying one of these on the day they become available. Hell yeah SNIK!

+1 for Snik coming sooner than later, I will be buying one for sure! 

Local shredder behind the company as well!

I second that !!!!!

Nice riding Perry. Also this frame looks awfully similar to a yeti SB x.x, no?

Wow that bobsled incident sounds nasty! Glad you are doing ok now. That trail got me too. It was a Damp day, and I was pedalling past the two drops you mentioned on the left of the trail. my chain snapped just as I crested the little downhill. Left foot slipped off the pedal and smashed into the ground and I barely didn't go otb. Foot was numb from the cold already because it was march. Got home and noticed my big toe nail was blue/black. Yada yada yada it eventually fell off and a new one grew in. Pretty awesome! 

Recounting my crash stories and hearing others is very liberating!

I had a nice one on Monday of the Labour Day long weekend. 

I was camping in Squamish with a group of friends and there was this massive log ride beside our campsite. I had been eyeing it up for 24 hours and we were now leaving the camp site. The log was not part of a trail or anything so, being from the north shore and riding and growing up on the shore i took it as an opportunity to get "sendy" and "freeride" my way into the history books of my non biker friends. 

Short version of the story: I climbed onto the log and easily rolled all the way down it (i don't know exactly how long but it was pretty damn long). It was not that skinny so balance was no prob. After you dismount the log at the end, it's a short steep bank with a small 1ft ledge. I cleanly get off the log, begin my descent down the short pitch, and as I went to hop off the ledge and continue to "send it" (gotta boost off everything am i right?) I lost my balance mid hop/takeoff and and that's where it all went wrong. I stuck out my left foot as I was falling but it all happened so fast that I was on the ground almost immediately. In the blink of an eye I was on the ground with a mouth full of dust. 

Damage: sprained left ankle, and nice road/gravel rash on my left arm and knee. Irony: I brought knee pads but didn't wear them since they were "all the way out at the truck" in the campsite parking lot. I did have my helmet on though, I don't really fuck around with out that piece of equipment.

I have video of it! but I don't know how to share it on this forum. I also did this move twice. Nailed it clean first try then went back for round two and went down. Lesson learned. Hit it clean first try? Move on! 

Now here I am, one week later. The x rays came back with no indication of a fracture! Just bad bruising below the ankle so that is great. Road rash is scabbed up nice and is a joy to pick at. All in all the damage wasn't too bad. I learned to not be such a show off annnd that I still got it. Oh and that I also am more fragile in my old age and don't heal as fast as when i was a teenager. 

Can't wait to get back on the bike next week!

So I was cruising down corkscrew around 4pm on Saturday. I noticed this guy on my left off the trail part way down, didn't think much of it- other than "oh there's a guy with a camera".
Now I am wondering who this person is and can you share your photos with us?!
