Took a few years off my life today:

As I said in my original post, that's what surprised me the most. I think my younger days experience in motocross and hare scrambles helped me save it instinctively. But after the save, it went into a brief recoil tank slapper. I almost lost it there. Maybe it's peculiar to the isolastics, but I have never experienced that springy-recoil action before. I hope I never do.
