I took my 12 year old son up to Cwmcarn on Monday for his first proper experience of an off-road trail. I thought Airstream at Cwmcarn would be a good introduction. After all, he's a sensible lad...

What could go wrong?

Luckily he hasn't been put off and is keen to give it another go. :)

    As if, not only did you produce a slow motion replay, you also immortalised the moment on YouTube, amazing.

    Yes, but entirely necessary. :wink:

    It was Tomos who wanted the slow motion section added. He is very proud of his artistic dismount. :)

    Luckily he escaped with just a couple of scrapes and bruises. There is no way I would put a clip up if he had received any serious injuries.
