Most likely down the hill, because that's the only side you can really see that mountain range.

I love that jump, you can just fly as far as you want and land wherever, kinda like a mini version of that insane tabletop at Unadilla.

It is a cool photo, but nowhere near the one at Glen Helen. The fans in the background make the ones at Glen Helen so bad ass.

Ok, so I think it is actually this one (there are lots of good pics of him at GH on the net)



The original photo in this thread looks cool too BTW.

damn fine pictures, he sure likes getting off the side. I have said it before, I hope he continues the way he is going and takes his time to get it back. I always liked Grant and it would be really good to see him up @ the sharp end again before the end of the year but time on the bike and a season without injury may be more important for his career.

Awesome photo.

It's great to see Grant getting his style & speed back.

Being hurt for the past two years must have sucked.

Thanks Scottie!

Here's a couple more photos of Grant from yesterday. The whip photos were on the jump after the uphill triple. Just a long table down the other side of the hill. You can pretty much jump as far as you want. Grant landed close to the bottom of the hill a couple of times though. Hopefully they keep this jump here for the National. Would be a fan favorite!

Grand could've been in the list "J. Stewart, C. Reed, R. Dungey, R. Villopoto". But injuries and bad choices about those injuries (starting to soon after a injury and stuff like that) have not helped his career and have blown the opportunity to become one of the big "four". Maybe one of the big "five" but with the injuries Trey keep having you need to doubt about his place too. (Sorry Treys Mom).

But Josh has so much pure talent that if he can race one or two seasons without major injuries that he maybe can create a new opportunity to become a name on the list of "big names".

I'm an admitted Josh Grant fan.

He has had a rough couple of years with so many injuries. I'm hoping he stays healthy this year, gets on the box a few times, and maybe wins a moto.

That would prepare him perfectly for being back into the top 4-5 of riders in the world. No question about it.
