Quiver Rock Origin Story

Merry Christmas!

Or more properly, Boxing Day, which I have celebrated by purchasing a film scanner. So here’s some more vintage for you.

These are some pics of the finishing move on Dangerous Dan’s old trail, the Fleshy Wound. This drop was called the Quiver Rock, but actually in the first pic it had no name at all (look for a young Digger in the background, with some very tight pants).

He rode it out. Dale was next.

Full faceplant endo, and he blacked out for a bit doing the funky chicken.

Probably that golf club like stem had something to do with, or maybe it was the toe straps. Who’s to say?

Anyway, ever since then (1996 or so….) it’s been Quiver Rock.

One thought on “Quiver Rock Origin Story

  1. Yo love the memories…date is a little off I think…prolly more like 1993 or 94. Fleshy Wound was finished 1992 and don’t think I rode much with Dale past 1994. Also, pretty sure I’d lost the spandex by 1995 – could be wrong on this one though….the official comment from Digger “Dale was quivering like a dead squirrel”
