i wrecked a stoppie pretty bad on my friends 99 zx6r that is bought a week prior (but he totalled it 3 days after he got it so it as ok 
55mph into ditch broken all plastic and right clipon off) i was going prolly 50 and i flipped it because there was **** in the road that i didn't see. it cut me down to my bone 2 places in my left ankle and i got 3rd degree bones on my right ankle. It knocked me out instantly and i spent 2 days in hospital. Ended up braking a peg on the bike but no one really cared. i took the brunt of the damage its weird goign out stunting and then waking up in the hospital. I know kyle woods knows what i'm talking about :P After that i was pretty scared to do them. I was rocking out 100+ ft endos then and it took me a long time to start again but i'm rocking out aroudn 120 ft at 45 mph now so its pretty cool. it did take a long time to get usta it again. i think i wrecked on my buddies bike too because 99zx6r had alot better brakes than f3. Congrats on doing them again.

I went from poppa-stoppie to 100+ feet with a week's worth of practice.... Right when I thought I was getting decent...I looped one in traffic on 8 Mile in Detroit. Right in front of the bus-stop. I barrel-rolled under a Monte Carlo, which then just left. Now, I'm scared and back to 25 footers.... 
But it's too cold and my front tire is wasted. So, I'll let it go until spring.

I can see how crashing could keep you away from anything. About two weeks ago I got caught on my bike, on the expressway, during a snow and ice storm. I almost went down like 4 times. With either massive amounts of amazing luck or skill I was able to get through it but I can't even think about the experience now without freaking out and getting scared. It even effected me in the bad weather while in my truck.

keep practicin man endo are a blast... i always used them to practice in between practicin other tricks.. like id go out do 20 combos/12s get bored and start dickin with endos.. id say if your just learnin goto a road that has a -slight- downhill grade and keep the speed up.. faster you go more stable they are.... not to mention farther you go. I usually throw em up at or around 100mph (my bike indicated 125 and its 13teeth up) im rollin em around 650feet or so... im definatly no endo king but i have a blast doin em... oh and get your hands on a stiff *** damper!
