I watched it on ABC at 12:30 today. My buddy Ty Tremaine got an invite and made the final strait from his heat race. He just turned 17 and I'm "super pumped" for him and his family!

Great close racing, prefer to sx any day. These riders got a lot of talent and guts. The way Taddy kept the bike on the rear wheel through the Matrix was amazing. Good ride for Cody after his injury. Nice to see him on the 2 stroke 300 Beta.

Anyone catch geiger jump that rock section before the log section? Only person I saw do it the whole time. Looks like they may have put a tuffblock on her takeoff after she did it but it was badass!..

That tough block was always there for the men. They built a dirt ramp over the log in the middle for the women and made the men go to either side where it was just the log. That's why it looked tougher for the men to get through. Just like they added dirt to the far left side of te matrix for the women.

@Slippy: i was really stoked for Ty! damn he came really close to tossing it away just yards before the finish, luckily he had a position to give.

I was bummed when Brownie went down. Seemed like every time someone closed on Taddy, and was about to challenge him, they made a mistake. Taddy is a baaad maaan! Cool

here is the vid:

Yeah O/C, lucky for Ty he's already 6'3" and had long enough legs to straighten himself in that matrix. I'd have been screwed, lol!

You could definitely see where Taddy's trials skills paid off. I'm a fan of Enduro X after watching that. Gotta go see one live now!

Laia railed. She doesn't like "Jumping" like the other riders; so, we've got to work on that...

Then, she can race the guys!

Hope they have one again the week-end of the SX finals in Vegas. Went to my first one this year and it was really a good time.

I missed my opportunity to go to the one in Sacramento at the old Arco Arena this year because I was sick. I'm hoping its back on the schedule next year. Of course, Vegas sounds like a good weekend too with SX, EnduroX and MiniMoto...

Holy crap she is good on a motorcycle. You aren't kidding, if she doubled some of the jumps like Tarah she could easily race in the men's class. On the last lap because of traffic she didn't even bother to go through the cheater line and passed a bunch of lappers...

Go watch Munich: she kills it by NOT using any of the "girls" lines.

Kills It!
