Just noticed Jo finished 3rd in the east points standings. Congratulations to the Japanese rider!!

He didn't had shiny rides battling for wins, but being there racing every round helped his cause. I'm looking forward to seeing him outdoors and how his career pans out.

Been surprised with him lately, he seems very composed for a rookie. He's earned a fan here.

Technically he’s very good on the bike. Once his whoop speed improves he’ll be podium bound.

Happy for him, but without 5 top riders missing races it would have looked different (Martin, Marchbanks, Hampshire, Nichols, J Smith)

I already forgot about smith. Is he locked up with PC for next year and do we see him outdoors?

He’s not racing outdoors and according to one of his recent IG posts he’ll be back at PC.

In many ways, he makes me think that he's the new Musquin, the japanese Musquin.

Yeah the batch of rookies are all pretty promising. If Shimoda and Brown figure the whoops out in the off season they are going to be on the podium a bunch. Same goes if Jett smooths out a bit. 2021 might be a battle of sophomores

Shimoda getting 3rd overall reminds me of mathes going 14-9 for 7th overall. #medalsup
