The same way they missed Tomac's 2nd moto at Southwick.

Because he just followed Martin over the hill, then turned back to the bottom.

I was skeptical, but still clicked it anyways. I got what I deserved.

What if Martin had gone down and they had the camera on Cooper instead?

Mart's would be exchanged for Cooper's in this thread title.
What if they had a camera on both of them?

It happened right across from us. And it happened fast! Swap, swap, and into the fence. Only guy I saw get sketchy on the rollers.

That would be a high speed get-off there, J-Coop should count himself lucky to not end up injured.

I was sitting on hp hill all day then went to take a leak and came back to hear he crashed literally 10 feet away from us. That section can get hairy, a few guys were swapping and getting kicked off one of the knuckles that formed.

Might I add it was insanely dusty this year. Reminded me of the first year I went in 98.

Yeah they went all 2021 on the prep and it got away from them late in the day. Hot and sunny and it was dusty as hell. Very few ruts compared to normal Shoug prep. It didn’t get all that rough either.

Too bad, threw away an overall! And a nice points gain….cant help but pull for J.Cooper, just the fact that he is from LI NY….. that’s about as far away from MX life as you can get…..

How do they let some camera stand right in front of the camera?....

Then I guess the next question is how many cameras/cameramen can they afford, and how close do you put them together? What do you prioritize the cameras focusing on? Not trying to say, "stop complaining that they missed a major crash!", but I think that was the only camera in that area, and it naturally followed the leader. 40 riders in about 16 laps with a limited number of cameras, things are bound to get missed, unfortunate as it is. It's not like they were focusing on a battle for 12th or watching Martin 20 seconds out front. They were just far enough apart that the main camera didnt catch it. Sucks but it happens.

Normally they don't. At High Point they had a photog blocking a camera and made him move pronto

The same way they missed Shane Trittler’s crash when he was getting lapped and ended up doing a front flip and landing on Damon Huffman’s bike while leading the race. Shit happens…
