As long as he doesn't touch the front brake, he'll be fine.

Or the back brake.

Or steer.

Or move.

Might be OK if he's spiked tyres, if he hasn't I'd suggest he not have much up top to damage.

Keep it rolling, he might just bounce off the sides and keep it rubber side down. Always hang in there till your elbows hit the ground I reckon!
Tell me this is one of a series of pics?

as long as the the camera is turned back to the horizontal before he rides down it, it should be ok.

Fake. Never seen a wheel sink into solid rock before.

If he's got enough speed he'll be able to clear the ice, pull a one-handed-devil-gnar-hand-gesture and land perfectly in the soft snow beyond... go big man!

There were big stretches of clear ice like that on my commute on Monday, horrible. I managed the uphill section getting off several times to negotiate the worst bits but once I reached the highest point I gave up and walked off the downs to the road. There was no way I was going to try and ride even the gentlest downward slope on it. I was having enough trouble just standing up.

1. The rider is going so fast they huck off it in a straight line clearing all the ice and rock and landing in the snow?

2.They go down like a bag of hammers

Need more information. Is he approaching

a) Just ice
b) an ice conveyor

?

If it's a) then he'll take off. If it's b) the ice conveyor will cancel out the thrust & he won't take off.

I claim he drops it without coming off on the ice, then goes OTB in soft snow at the bottom just when he thinks he's safe!
