That right after the sand section looks like a great place for a block pass.

Easy track

What are hoops?

After the finish line the track crosses the start straight.

Hoop-dee-doos! How many times have you heard RC say, "hoops" in a press conference?

I was thinking the same haha. In his defense, they do make the track look easy. It's crazy to watch mid 90's to mid 2000's SX tracks, the jumps were so ungodly peaky. Perfect timing or broke.

For these guys...it IS an easy track. There is only one section on the entire track with ANY options....and they likely wont make much of a time difference (maybe once the whoops go in...it might favor JS and his crazy balls seat bounce ability from an inside line). The rest of the track...the P1 guy and the P20 (22 actually) guy are going to be jumping everything the same. The guy who called it an easy track was right, irregardless of his ability.

So basically what we have is a race of 180s and whoops...with some jumps that make no difference thrown in for crowd pleasing. After the MEC scare with RV, the last thing FELD wants is guys balling it up round 1.

agreed it's a track with few options but last year's was pretty much the same way. It had the quad after the sweeper that not everyone did but other than that it was basic and produced pretty good racing. If they build big whoops parallel to the extended part of the start, that first section could be interesting.
