Close call

i was skiing today in the trees at mary jane at winter park and i had the scariest accident i've ever had. theres this cliff in the trees where you have to jump down 10-15 feet to a little platform, then another 15 feet to another small platform, then somewhere between 15-20 feet to the bottom. well i started at the top and found where i wanted to land on the first platform and went for it. unfortunately i landed abuot half a foot back from where i wanted to be and all my weight went back and i fell the remaining distance down a way that is just suicide if you tried to ski it. Luckily i landed on my back between a rock and a tree. all that happened to me was a small scrape on my back and a difficult time getting one of my skis down.

anyone else have close calls like this?

oh yeah, and i went back to it on my next run and did it again, only that time i didnt fall almost the whole way.
 
one time i was riding trees at mary jane on invaders (bad idea) well anyway i was bombing thru em when suddenly i see what i thought was a semi burried log, hardly had enough time to check any speed. i hit the log and it shot me backward. so i flew ass first thru the air for about 15-20 feet and landed in some pow. no doubt if i had hit a tree ass first going that fast i would been toast.
