El Coyote Posted March 16, 2008 Share Posted March 16, 2008 (edited) anyone know what happened saturday night kind of on the back side of comp? i saw like 3 ambulances go back there and a bunch of people were parked on the hill with their lights facing something My boy went up Comp when dark and we guess he thought it was flat up at the top but instead flew right over the lip onto the backside. He's a very experienced rider and just happened to get disoriented by the darkness (I assume). He'll be ok.

Would Cptkllm be the guy in the rail? If so, please let him know that we all sincerely thank him for his voluntary help! Actually, there are quite a few people we have to thank including the stand-up guys in the Rhino that lit up the area where my buddy laid for an hour or two.

Thank you! I was too hence the reason for not riding up Comp....instead, I went around the back when I saw him fly up and over. Richard Cheese aka Jason on here asked me to meet up with the DDR crew this weekend but time went by so fast that I didn't get a chance to meet any of you great peoples! I did meet a few folks out at the South Pole Saturday afternoon. We just happened to be there when everyone showed up. NikInVegas (sp?) was out there but I didn't get to see her. I did run into her bf though...cool peeps!!!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Foxysandchick Posted March 17, 2008 Share Posted March 17, 2008 We were sitting at camp and mentioned that those lights had been on the hill for awhile, so Bert took Pauly Paul, Sand~Snake and I over there in the Tracker to see what was going on. Bert tried to get to the guy in the Tracker when we found out that they couldn't get to him, but we couldn't get there. We were sitting there when the medics got there and we asked them if they needed the help of a sand rail, they said yes and we headed back and got CaptNkllm. He loaded 3 medics and their gear into his rail and took them to the guy, they were very grateful. Bert towed the Raptor the rest of the way down the hill, so that us helping you (El Coyote). I do have pics of the bike and the frame wasn't broken, the left side tires were flat and the plastics broken. We waited while the guy was being pulled down the hill on the back board to see if he was going to be ok. We were told he was conscious and in a lot of pain, but that he was doing ok. We heard that he couldn't feel his legs at 1 point, but glad to hear that is not the case. Keep us posted on how he is doing. Glad the DDR crew could be of assistance . Tell him to stop by the site when he is feeling better . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would have been willing to dent or break something if it means a difference between life and death (it can always be fixed or replaced IMO) Like I said .. glad he si ok.
