I'm so grateful Romain is safe. Wow… the risk we take is no joke, for those of you out there that forget that we put our life on the line for this sport and for what we love to do.

I have never seen an accident that bad in my lifetime and for him to jump out is an outstanding achievement for all those continuing to push the safety forwards. 5 years ago that would have been a different story.
