Did anyone else listen to it? Thoughts?
I really like ryno, and the way he runs his show. Just wanted to get others opinions. Keep this thread clean no bashing or fist fight stories please.

Ryan has a strong personality and confidence. He is very passionate about what he has learned.
I liked the part about when he rode a 500 for Team USA and was too slow but figured it out by race day. Guys who had to ride those beasts have all of my respect especially when they never really raced them normally. Ryan and Emig both did that for Mxdn races, others also. Very cool!

I agree with you, TBI isn't SCI.........
And no offense B1LL31, but if ya equate TBi with a neck brace.....hell, I bet he was wearing boots and gloves too.
Those sure as heck didn't give a head injury.
I really don't give two craps about what Rhino has to say about it...he was a damn good rider with a lot of adversity in his life...and maybe he's a good trainer these days. But he sure as hell doesn't have any proven data to support his beliefs...
only events that fit into his agenda.
Sorry to hear of any rider passing....
Again, IMO
PS
When I get some spare time I'm going to write up an article from a psychological perspective on his temperament and how it is one of his greatest assets towards winning championships.
Neck braces did come up - I did not and will not wear them.
I can understand where his thoughts on neck braces come from, but to say that, "x" number of people died from wearing a neck brace last year and 0 have died not wearing one seems like a heavy claim. There are pros and cons to every decision we make in life and I do respect that he is not pushing his views on people, just stating his thoughts.
I understand what he was saying about the neck braces. They transfer the force of the impact to different places of the body. Yes I dare say they exacerbate the injury in places that would otherwise go uninjured Quoting Ryno off my head he said something like it transfers the force to other parts of the body like the shoulders and back.... yes thats the point!!! Having the option, I'd much rather break my back then my neck! Quadriplegic vs Paraplegic.

Did you guys listen to the podcast? I only said he has a valid point. As he explained it, If your going to land on your head, the body's natural instinct is to tuck your head. If you neck brace won't let you tuck your head then all impact is transferred to your head and the rest of your body. Which in turn causes TBi. To me, that makes sense. Is there proven data? No But is there proven data to support neck braces? No, no third party company has done any testing on neck braces. I don't see any agenda in Ryno, only his beliefs. Keep your braces on, I don't care. It's about personal choice for oneself, sounds to me like you guys are pushing an agenda.
He also contradicted himself on that explanation, he said getting on the back behind your knees is the most dangerous position you can put yourself in and then explains that RV gets away with it by pushing his butt back.
The fact is, there are motocross riders and bicycle riders doing backflips and front flips while wearing these braces, it's not impossible or that limiting if you know what you are doing.
Still don't subscribe to his neck brace talk but like he mentioned, that's fine if he thinks they are dangerous. Either way, cool podcast.
