Alessi talked about it being dangerous & predicted some guys having trouble with it. He was airing it out there though...FWIW...

It's easier to complain then to step up and prove it. RV proves that he loves the sport, loves riding, loves racing. So to the Champ, you freaking rock. You make me want to ride better and stronger, faster and smoother.

obviously mx riders don't make 5 mil. a year. the point is that this is there job and they can complain and cry all they want how big the step up is. bottom line, if they want to "work" and make money, then they have to do whatever it takes.

Does it being "their" job make it worth putting "their" life on the line if they don't feel the jump is safe?

Imagine if you worked as a construction worker and you are working on the 14th floor of a building. The only way to get across from one building to another was a "tight rope" and you were supposed to get something on the other side. I'm assuming that since it's your job, you would walk the line?
After all, if you want to "work", you will do whatever it takes!

It's also their job to report their concerns regarding track conditions. These guys are the best in the biz and if they have issues with a certain obstacle you can't bet your bottom dollar it's warranted.

It is an AMA National..........the AMA goobers have control of the race and can make changes as they see fit. The AMA signed off on the jump..................so they thought it was ok.

If a rider has a problem that is the direction he needs to go.Dizzy
