I don't have much time but. watch the full vid + 90sec secs before the down, why was your head humping/bobbing up and down like that? Listening to music or something else? It only happens a few times, maybe I am seeing more than what is there. Vids are like that...
Glad you spotted that. I saw it the moment I reviewed the video. I believe it was the bike pitching because I was releasing the brakes too suddenly.

I had a few moments that day that were similar. Trail braking, the bike not being happy with the way I was easing off the brakes and letting me know it.

In fact, JUST before this session I was talking to Ant about that and saying "Y'know, I can see how that happening in Turn 1 might wind up being my first crash." No lie.
