    I crashed at Jennings in the alpinestars boots and they worked amazing. Was pissed having just got them but they came in handy and just a little scuffed but basically brand new still. Love them

      Yeah these boots saved my foot for sure! I was actually going to get the Dainese torque 3 but decided the astars would be better. I think the axial D1 boots I have are good but not sure about the torque’s.

    Similar injury and surgeries from my crash in 2023. Wasnt running the dragon tail went down heading into work and broke the left wrist. Took about 9 months to get back to work (job requires climbing). Year and a half later hand is just fine but have lost a minor amount of flex and rotation in the wrist. Hoping you recover quick and fully.

    I have a pair of SuperTechR and never felt they were the best lateral protection despite the high praise. I'd try on the Dianese Torque if I were shopping for a new pair of road-race boots. Please share your findings and choice. Glad to perceive you will make a full recovery and keep riding. Much respect

    I switched from an alpine stars missle V2 suit with super tech-Rs over to a Dainese Misano 3 with axial V2s. Honestly i couldnt be happier. The misano has way butter airflow, more comfortable, easier to get on, more flexible, built-in airbag, etc. The axials are easier to get on and more comfortable. Ill never go back.

      Came in a little too hot on a turn and went wide. Little bit of target fixation instead of looking through the turn. A truck was coming on the other side so I went for the embankment.

    No shame in that foot damage when a bike lands on it --- you could be getting fit for a prosthetic. Gear 1000% did it's job!
    The GAP is very unforgiving... I've been doing it since the late 90s (I'm in my mid 40s now) with various groups I've been apart of over the years... 1st with the Honda guys when I was in that scene - MINI Cooper guys... Foxbody guys... sportbike guys (the 1st time I was into bikes)... drone guys (yeah... I know... nerd shit)... B13SeR guys... and now back to bikes again. This time though... my RE GT650 has all of my attention - haha. I'm getting slower... older - or smarter -- or dumber... IDK which. :)
    In other news... let me build ya a FPV setup for the RC truck so you can sit on your driveway and "drive" around the neighborhood wearing goggles while you heal up - haha. Search "Tonka Summit FPV" on YT for inspiration. It might just cheer you up. STAY SAFE BROTHER and despite what it looks like... you won.
