ok about 2 weeks after i bought my fisher, i was trying to go down a somewhat steep single track off a mediumish hill and… drastically underestimated the technical stuff, i still made it over the big rocks, the mossy rocks and around a few fell trees, however, i paniced at the sand pit and went to wrong side, began to fall and reached out for the limb of one of the fallen trees.. my bike kept going with my feet still cliped in, swung round and hit the treee i grabed, pinning me between my bike and the tree. So heres the picture, im bent over a fallen tree, butt in the air (a big rotting tree at that) with my bike, gravity of a steep hill, and a very awcard angle not alowing me to unclip my feet. When my bike swung aroung it slamed into a branch as well and all i could do was yell for joel (bombadier) to come straiten my bike out so i could get off the tree and free my feet. Yup, i had a nice 14” x 3” branch shaped bruise on my upper thigh for a while after that.. That was when i desided i needed adjustable float pedals untill i got the hange of clipless 😏
