Griz DH Crash! 19
Griz DH Crash! from J.D. Swanguen on Vimeo.
This past weekend at the U.S. National Championships in Sol Vista, CO team rider Sean “Griz†McClendon had a huge crash in his DH race run. Griz was Life Flighted to Saint Anthony’s Hospital in Denver where we would find out he had broken his left Collarbone, Shattered both sides of his pelvis, and dislocated his right hip. He’ll go under the knife a total of 4 times to have his pelvic bones pinned back together. Everybody send good healing vibes and wish Griz the best through this rough time in his life. GET WELL SOON, WE LOVE YOU!!!

Hey mate hang in there, get through the surgery and time in hospital, rest well, sleep well and eat well, then go hard as with your physio & rehab, why do I say this, becuase I shattered my pelvis in Jan this year, plates screws the lot! I'm now back shredding again & I am 42 years old, good luck mate you'll be right.
