Default HIGH SPEED WOBBLE

Was out in Colorado last week from Florida.&nbsp\\; Riding fairly agressivly at higher speeds.&nbsp\\; Got a bit airborne after a dip and came down to a high speed wobble in front end.&nbsp\\; Anyone know if this is normal or do I need to get it checked out.&nbsp\\; Cleared up after a few seconds but sure got my attention.&nbsp\\; Thanks for the help.

This is entirely normal when you land with your front wheel slightly out of line with your direction of travel. If you turn your bars to any (small) degree in mid-air you will land in some serious sh*t.
&nbsp\\;
When you start getting wobbles without your wheels leaving the ground - That's the time to start looking for stuff.
&nbsp\\;
Keep on trucking.
