Here's what a moderately bad week looks like...

Maybe a Ghost like Patrick Swayze. Were you making pottery with someone's wife? lol

 

Invisible friends? HA. What is this? Kindergarden?

 

That is the correct action to take when falling over. It doesn't work real well if ice is reason you fell, though. One time I slipped on a sidewalk downtown SLC. When I shot back up (your suggested response) I immediately fell right back over.

So unfortunately, if ice is the reason you fell, you are going to have to own your mistake and embrace public embarrassment.

 

I just about broke my ribs going down on ice last winter. Went down like a tree.

 

Where’s the video?

 

That's what I looked like when I fell. Was running across the street and jumped over the grass area (full of snow), landed on the sidewalk and physics dictated that my legs go over my head and I landed right on my upper back. Lucky I didn't break my neck. Then I shot right back up then shot right back down again. Wish I had a video to show yall

 

It happened right in front of my truck as I was walking back from a GOAL, chances are pretty good a trucker parked across had recorded it on their dashcam.

 

Try walking in ski boots on an icy parking lot to the lifts carrying all your gear. A guy can really get hurt walking around on ice. Penguin walk. Lol.

 

tl;dr

On the topic of multi-drop loads "sucking":

I've done runs with 20-28 drops out of a 53' roll-tite all over Saskatchewan in three and a half days. Most of the businesses are open 7:30am - 5:00pm so you work 8-10 hours a day. It's a cake run and I'll do multi-drops any day of the week.

Regular deck runs I'm making $250 CAD gross a day when I'm rolling. That multi-drop run I was over $330 CAD gross a day. Get out of the kitchen if you can't take the heat. I thrive on those adrenaline-pumping challenges.
