I'm sure those guys he's racing are fast local pro's...and he wasn't even trying.

Sure shows the gap between local pro, and national pro...aaannnnddd...its bigger than I thought it was. lol

very cool, i bet those guys he raced with were super stoked to have one of the greatest pass them. that was sick watching him launch that single before all the fans on the left side.

MC whipped it alongside me at the Day in the Dirt one year and i had rug burn from the chub i had the rest of the race.

Cool to see him racing local events. That track (being new) should had been built bigger. Seems to tight and the Seattle area needs a good outdoor style track.

Cool to see how excited the fans were when they came up to Ryan at the end of the video

It was bigger last year. Not sure why they shortened it.
Villo's are good peeps. All of them.

So in order to go faster I need to OJ the f*** out of everything? Cool, got it. Shocked How do they do that? How is their stuff so good on the small choppy stuff and still can handle big hits like that? I'd have an erector set around both legs holding the bones together if I tried that.

Regardless, awesome to see him having fun still. Great stuff.

Not that I can talk from experience, but speed helps a lot, its a lot easier on the body to flat land with forward momentum then to just drop from the sky.. at least thats what Ive been told when I was brave enough to ask. Guess a good setup helps as well..

Every once in a while we catch short at the local track. It's so cool to hit a couple corners along side a national level pro and see how smooth and fast they ride everything. It just sucks they gap you so fast. Gotta really take it all in quickly Laughing
