Sorry If this had already been talked about...but where was he? I only was able to watch the mains and no word (that I heard) was even mentioned about him.

Just plain old bad luck and maybe some bad choices. He's one cool cat and smart as hell. That kid is badass. Look out.

He ran into a guy in the whoops during the heat. Caught back up to 9th place and tried to pass the dude on the outside and was pushed into the tuf blocks and crashed.

In the LCQ he was leading until they red flagged the race for a downed rider. On the restart he got a lousy start, quickly was moving up and into 5th. He tried to pass into 4th in the whoops and went down again ending his night.

You could tell he was just furious riding off from the LCQ, I really felt bad for him.

Hope he can see the bright side, not qualifying is still better than leaving in an ambulance.

Thanks for the clarification. I thought he didn't qualify in timed practice. My bad!

What?

So far over his head? He fucked up in LCQ when front wheel missed a whoop and bucked him off the bike. Martin was not riding over his head. Maybe he needed more patience..... but not over his head.

The only "bad luck" was the red flag. There rest was on him. You make your own luck Wink

He had troubles all day long. I was sitting by the whoops watching him. Went down in them in practice to (as well as alot of other riders) He had a line over the wall jump where he would wheelie up onto it. But he kept turning in laps and looking for his number to move up the board, and when it didn't he would do another. I'd say he turned more "race pace" laps in practice then any other rider.

Agreed.

I was super bummed for the guy, but it could have been worse.

Bad luck + no breaks + bad gates + stacked field = DNQ

2015 Field is deep!

To me it seemed that he was trying to rush things too much and made terrible choices that led to his DNQ.

Well.....shit happens! I felt bad for him. But at this point I really don't think it matters.....because Marvin has got a lock on this championship.

Outdoors......Him and Webb are pretty much going to destroy everyone this year. I think Marvin will give them both a run for the money in some motos....but I don't think even Marvin will ride the pace those two guys are going to put down for 30min strait.

Back to the SX.....bummed he didn't make the main , and I'm sure he's pissed. But again , at this point I don't think it matters.
