Is it me or does Barcia always look like his going to land in an Axell Hodges style endo? More than any rider his front end always seems so low mid air. Am I crazy?

No you're not crazy, just observant..I noticed that trait also once he moved to Gas Gas. I chalk it up to him being super confident and relaxed on the new bike. Downsiding jumps at that angle reduces front wheel impact and allows for quicker acceleration on landing.

It’s like he does it so he can get extra hard on the throttle in the air to level it out lol.

Nothing I love more then watching a battle on tv and all you can hear is Barcia revving the shit out of his bike in another lane or something haha. He must be so intimidating to race with.

Reed used to ride like that when he was confident and comfortable on the bike. Ricky even talked about it one time he was in the booth that a nose down chad is dangerous.
