On RacerX it stated that both Plessinger and Webbs gear deals are up and they are shopping around. Anyone have any hints of where they may land or if they’ll stick with Thor? I’d personally like to see Renen land a top athlete!

Based on some info I heard, I wouldn't expect Renen to jump in and just got top dollar right off the bat. I think Pete wants to grow it more over time than just buying a big name.

I've heard Fly's name thrown around with Plessinger...

Webb I'm not sure...

Again, all things in passing, nothing confirmed.

Fox will be hard with Webb wearing Bell, 100% and ASTARS. But not out of the realm of possibility.

I know there are some massive offers for Webb from more than one brand. Selfishly I hope they both stay put at Thor.

I hope they both get out of Thor. Their gear in particular has not looked very good the past few years. I feel like they’ve overused the “blue sleeves” thing - and the radioactive vomit gear was pretty fugly this year too Sick

I thought Webb’s gear normally looked on point the last couple of years. Plessinger’s on the other hand, not so much but he seems the type that would wear anything and laugh it off.

Fox could do it. They've done it before. But, they've already got Adam & Kenny; so, that would be a budget 'jump' if they went after Cooper. In this market? That would be surprising.

A-Star is the brand I could see going after Cooper.

AP going to Fly makes sense & personally I'd like to see him in TLD; but, I can see Thor keeping him -especially- if Cooper goes to another brand.

Personally, I really like what Pete's doing at Renen. He's got Ryder D and seems to be banking on the future. He doesn't need a high dollar Supercross/MX star. His "product drops" work like magic and the vast majority of his production runs are pre-sold or sold out within days of being announced.

I like what Pete's been doing with Renen too & yeah it makes sense that he wouldn't sign a huge name right now. Would have been cool to see ONE big rider with Renen on the gate. I could see CW2 going ALL fox - but I'd personally like to see more A Stars gear on the big riders.

I don't think you'll see Webb depart from Bell during this round of contracts.
