Yeah the kid looks stylish and fast. If I had him launch in front of me off the Chad apult, I would think this kid will b trouble to pass. Better wait for the down hill. I would pick a combination of Damon Huffman, Bradshaw and jmb for craftiness and race craft. That would b hard to beat.

I guess most of you have never seen Bubba ride in person. If so, there is no other choice, James Stewart. .

Jeremy McGrath!

The guy had so much grace, style and flow. It's immediately recognizable.

I would take the ability and speed of Stew and mix that with the riding style of a Windham/Reed/MC and then add in the grit and determination of RC/RV.

At 67 years old and still riding, if I could ride like anybody it would be riding like my 19 year old self. For sure, if I could magically start riding like (fill in your favorite pro's name here) it would be fun. But, to be able to ride with the grace and abandon I once did would be the best.

To pick a pro....old school, Marty Smith, Jim Pomeroy on his good days, Brad Lackey. New school....Ryan Dungey.

Stew Baylor for Enduro. Duder rocks a beer gut and speaks with no filter. Then he whoops your ass sitting down in a 4 hour moto that he barely practiced on. He is 90's rebel moto in the Enduro world.

Herlings for me. Tomac rides with insane strength, Sexton has impeccable technique and Anderson has insane style. Herlings has a blend of all three that makes him look like some kind of dirt bike demigod.

Graham Jarvis og Billy Bolt for tight technical stuff

Kevin Windham. Absolute sound technique.
KW a lot of elbows down, leaning forward when he was tired 5 th lap usually. Watch him race in 95 on a yz125 ax riders handled him easily. A lot of hype on him. 97 he was phenomenal and hard to beat tho. It took him 3 yrs. KW is not even close to Damon Huffman on domination in the 125 class.

I like the flow guys as much as anyone but the two guys that made me laugh out load at how long they left the gas on going into corners were Bradshaw and RC (2-stroke days).

I'll take them as it would be fun to make myself laugh while I rode wide open down rutted out sloppy hills and somehow felt like that was okay.

BTW, I can't believe it took 3 pages before RC was mentioned. No one likes to corner? Just jump front end low like Hanny? I still remember RC on a supermini at Mt Morris back in about 1995. He literally did not let off. Absolutely incredible.

There are so many good choices in this thread. I read a name, and say “oh yeah him, that’s my answer”. For me personally it would be Marty Smith. He was so smooth, and always had the right form. He seemed like he never wasted energy or ran on the ragged edge. He was just fun to watch, and since Illl never actually be all that fast, I sure would like to have his style. Jett Lawrence intrigues me too. He seems like he is out play riding, and having fun at break neck speeds. I like when it looks effortless, I guess…
