sandmandan Posted November 26, 2019 Share Posted November 26, 2019 He’s part of our group. He’s actually at Dumont now, with us. Very lucky to have a bad gash on his head, 9 staples, and some nasty bruises. Very lucky, but he’s going to be just fine. 9 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adrenaline Jackie Posted December 2, 2019 Share Posted December 2, 2019 Did he flip from turning too quick on a fairly flat area? What caused the gash on his head? Glad he's ok!! I'm asking cause I'm always trying to decide between helmet or no helmet in the buggy. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

According to Dan he had just got there, went for a quick ride and misjudged a dune with the sun in his face on the way back to camp. The hook where his headsets hang is what caused the head injury. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sandmandan Posted December 2, 2019 Share Posted December 2, 2019 Correct. Also, bad habit of not cinching his shoulder belts tight which allowed him to fly around more during the crash. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sandmandan Posted December 2, 2019 Share Posted December 2, 2019 (edited) Some of our group started wearing helmets. Probably safer but for sure, tighten all of your harnesses. Accidents suck but preventable injuries are worse. Edited December 2, 2019 by sandmandan Too much info in the pic 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crusty Posted December 3, 2019 Share Posted December 3, 2019 Those Billet type Headset holders are beefy! Yikes! Tight belts or don't bother wearing them is the rule. Really glad to hear dude will be just fine....cheers! 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
