Go Shorty! He's looking good on the Katoom. I really hope he gets that SX win in 2011 he deserves it.

Andrew seems genuinely excited to be riding the 350.

Nice!

I guess FMF is out and Akarpovic is in with KTM... Looking more like the Europeen team.

You know, Short actually started getting better as the season progressed, finally capping it off at the MXoN. Hopefully this will only put him further up front. Maybe even win a supercross. That's Short's next step. He needs a win.

Come on Cyg.... have a little faith!!! Just because some other guy can't get starts on it does not mean it's not capable. I expect Roger D to have KTM's at the front of the pack this year. If there is something that KTM is doing to their bikes overseas Roger will get his hands on it and at least test it, you just can't tell that guy no. Go Shorty, Maybe we will finally see a great race season where more than 1 or 2 guys can win. Maybe that's just wish full thinking.

He does look good on the bike, and he seems to be practicing and training a lot earlier than some of the others.. Nothing wrong with wishful thinking. He's still fairly young.

I think maybe the people he's surrounding himself with (RD) are more important than the size of the engine.

He rode both the 350 and the 450 to see which bike he felt more comfortable on an SX track with. Seems like he likes the 350 a little more. I think the 350 has a better chance against the 450s on an SX track than it does outdoors.

"The plan was to ride both the 350 and the 450 and make a decision based off of that. However, after riding the 350 for a few weeks, I don't think it would be best to go the 450 route. I think the 350 is the bike of choice for me." - AS29

Great video, and Andrew seems like a great dude and very appreciative for everything he has, you don't see enough of that great attitude these days i think..

Yea, those factory 450's are so powerful they don't even get out of second gear the entire race. I don't see how using second and third is a disadvantage. Just more RPM control at his disposal for SX.

Actually, if you watch the whole video interview, it sounds like he never even rode the 450...marketing influence anyone? I guess they're trying to claw their way back from the awesome press Alessi's outdoor season earned them.

who cares if he rode the 450 or not. He looks damn good on the 350 esp in the whoops where KTMs used to struggle. Andrew will hold his own for sure. Wish him the best of luck on the Katoom
