If I was him I’d have a huge poster made of his Superman air.

“and here I am doing a Superman air for TP199, during our race”.

All I know is that the Cat deserves the highest praise for his efforts in his replica bikes and gear. With JS259 last year and TP199 this year, he has nailed them perfectly.

He pulled a Pastrana, Doug Henry and a JS7 all in 2 seconds. I still cant believed he pulled that off!

At first, I thought he was doing a Pastrana-move on purpose.

That was an incredible save.

Ironic how much it Made him Look like Pastrana , even though in accident it totally looks like a Pastrana on purpose move.
And I cant Mention the Name Pastrana without thinking how much of a Legend he is , he is like The evil Kneival of our Time.
Cool that people are already impersonating the legends of My Lifetime 1990's
And AJ seems like a very cool Cat as well

Any video of the landing? I want to see how he hit the ground. I thought he was toast, then you see him put his feet on the pegs and hope for the best.

I was at work watching this and I straight launched out of my chair and went nuts haha man I thought he was done when he launched the speed check. Imagine if he would’ve hit that 100 Yard Dash sign! Man I’m glad he didn’t!!! That was freaking awesome

The fact that he got right back to business shows just how badass these kids are.

I did the same thing minus the super man but add hand of the throttle side re gripped then launched. I ditched the bike at the point he found the pegs which explains why I have 4 plates and 22 screws and he doesn’t. Dide pulled it off like a boss and didn’t skip a friggin beat. Props to the CAT

Th Cat is a bad dude! The only save I have seen better than that was when Freddy Noren cased LaRoccos Leap and after getting bucked off landed back in his bike.

Really respect the Big Cat for going all out with his tributes to JS259 and Travis Pastrana... two of the most influential riders to ever grace our sport.

If RBSR returns for 2020, who will he impersonate? Roger "The Man" Decoster?

That was Evgeny Mikhaylov. It's on YouTube titled "Epic Motocross Save". Sorry, don't know how to embed.
