Looks like he needs to stick to riding sand and the outdoors.

Save this video so in 2 years when he is over here full time we can compare. I'm pretty sure he will get it down by then.

His timing and whoops are a bit off but I guarantee after a few weeks he will look like a completely different rider. SX is all about comfort when you have bike skills like he does.

The first set of whoops are massive and he went through them fine...He looks pretty good, but I'm sure you couch racers would be better.

i think he looks good to say he's a 16 year old kid with no supercross experience! Look how fast roczen picked it up last year- if jeffrey goes stateside he will be fine! He's got 2 years to practice!

I was at the ranch yesterday and he was out there.. The kid has some serious skills on a bike. Austin Pollitelli, Weston Peick, and some Euro were out there too.. Austin's CRF250 sounds so beastly!!!

To clarify my post... Herlings looked good for just learning to ride sx.. he had more speed through the woops than anybody else out there yesterday.

Not sure if you're being sarcastic or not, but to think this guy wouldn't be able to adapt to sx is pretty absurd considering how young he is.

Nobody said he was an a-hole or got personal. They said he looked shitty on the sx track. So only rider's who are pros can comment on Jeffrey or moto in general?

For his first time on a supercross track I think he looked pretty good. By the time he does takes it seriously and has 3 months solid practice he will be fine. You can't ride sand like he does with have amazing bike skills and good timing, he also has plenty of aggression.
