bjrogg:
If your like me and it looks like you might be to the stage where you start getting better and get fussier and you don't quit till you break something. Tip, Barb, base notching is where I break the most now of course I'm completely done with point other than notch.

Freeze cracks break early, that's gotta be your tip wasn't properly supported, you took too deep of bite, or hit a platform above center level. Looking much better man!

Sasquatch:
looks like you bit to high.  Sharpen the tip of flaker.

Sparrow:
