did anyone see jimmy blaze come up short, looked painful .
I saw the replay! I think they said he really struggled! Seemed like he was short on everything maybe now enough umph! The 2 strokes are over shooting the landing ramps!
 
quinlan, the godfather of snowmobiling, came up REAL short into the face of the landing. last they showed, he wasn't movin around too quick. Those gaps are big, goddamn.
 
I think there were traction issues on the ramps. None of the tracks were studded and I think they were having trouble launching. Lots of guys were coming up short. Jimmy looks to be in bad shape, they showed about 3-4 wipeouts from him in practice, he was hurting, those guys can't have much left for spines.

Snowcross tomorrow night at 8:30 Central.
 
Yeah it seemed like if they didn't land perfect and on the throttle on a couple of those jumps - they were gonna come up short on the next one. I didn't get to catch Blaze's crashes tho - pretty nasty?
 
I have seen worse, but he shorted a back flip. The skis went into the top of the jump and he kind of just face planted off the front of the sled. It looked like he re-injured something from earlier.
