Just got back from the Home Depot Center, practice was good, track is gnarley, SX on steriods. The guys looked good. It's amazing they can get around the track, everything is pretty peaked out.

The class is Super X Adaptive, 6 amputees and 6 paraplegics, it's supposed to be on ESPN live at 5 or 5:30pm PST tomorrow Friday.

Their going to award 3 medals in the order they cross the finish and behind the scenes they are supposed to give medals to the top3 amputees and the top 3 para's.


Good luck to everyone competing.

Chris is way above everyone else in skill. Not taking anything away from him, but really it's like watching James ride.

The sledder built his own fake leg.


They had a great segment on ESPN about it.

Think he got 2nd, for not even being a full time MXer.
