That never goes wrong... The NIL agreements need to have no-atv clauses in them.
Good to know the 'swimming with great whites while wearing a suit made of tuna' experience was finally taken off his schedule.His vacation itinerary...oh no...
Day 1: Arrival & Extreme Off-Roading
- Afternoon: Arrive in Moab and pick up a pre-arranged UTV rental from High Point Hummer & ATV.
- Late Afternoon/Sunset: Tackle the notorious Hell's Revenge 4x4 trail. The slickrock obstacles provide massive vertical climbs, steep drops, and intense adrenaline.
Day 2: Technical Canyoneering (Ephedra's Grotto)
- Morning: Meet your guide from Moab Desert Adventures for a full-day technical canyoneering excursion.
- Action: You will hike, scramble, and perform multiple high-exposure rappels (up to 150 feet) into deep, narrow desert slot canyons.
Day 3: Skydiving Over Red Rocks
- Morning: Head to the Moab airport for a tandem skydive with Skydive Moab.
- Action: Freefall at \(120\) mph from \(10,000\) feet with unparalleled, extreme bird's-eye views of the Colorado River and Canyonlands National Park.
Day 4: Multi-Pitch Rock Climbing
- Morning: Meet a guide from Cliffhanger Guides to conquer a multi-pitch traditional rock climb on ancient sandstone towers.
- Action: Scale the sheer, vertical walls of Castleton Tower or Wall Street, testing your endurance and exposure tolerance.
Day 5: Class IV+ Whitewater Rafting

- Action: Navigate legendary, high-volume Class IV rapids like the "Big Drop" series, navigating churning hydraulics and massive waves. [1]

- Morning: Book a shuttle to the top of the La Sal Mountains with Poison Spider Bicycles.
- Action: Drop into The Whole Enchilada, an extreme, highly technical \(26.5\)-mile mountain bike trail descending over \(7,000\) feet from alpine forests to the desert floor. [1, 2, 3]
Day 7: The "Ultimate" Via Ferrata
- Morning: Finish your trip at the Moab Adventure Center to complete the Rim Rock Via Ferrata.

Breaking everything on the ATV or himself??out for the season after breaking everything on atv ride
Because they're teenagers/20 something year old kids who want to have fun. I'm not condoning it, just stating why. Add to the fact that Brewu wasn't a teammate last year, he didn't experience what happened.Seriously though why are we doing this when we have a teammate who has probably already lost millions of dollars in future earnings to a stupid injury.
Somethings you don't need to experience. I remember Jay Williams was my favorite college player (he's a few years older than me), but shortly into his pro career he crashed on that motorcycle and ruined his NBA career. I didn't need to be his teammate to just be smart enough and stay the hell off of them as long as I was playing Sports and without making millions of dollars to boot.Because they're teenagers/20 something year old kids who want to have fun.

I get that. I do. But it is really easy for us to say when not in their shoes.Somethings you don't need to experience.

I think your being generous.I don't have the data to back it up but I believe 1 out of 3 ATV rides end poorly for the rider and/or others in the vicinity. That doesn't sound right, but you don't know enough about ATV statistics to dispute it.
Ranch threadTime to start a prayer thread? Lol
One exception to this rule occurs when the ride begins with, "Hey Bubba, watch this," which ends in a 50% fatality rate.I don't have the data to back it up but I believe 1 out of 3 ATV rides end poorly for the rider and/or others in the vicinity.
