Will Axell Race SX?

dog_lover_136

I’ve seen his video about preparing for supercross. Which makes me think that he’s preparing for mitch to call him, other than that do we think he’s just trying to get back into it for fun or is he actually training for sx.

This isn't even close to being a semi decent trolling attempt buddy.

Screw the points, let him in for viewers. If anything let's finally get a replacement for KDub transfers!

i’m not trolling him, i’m just asking a question. What part of that is trolling, watch his latest video from helmet sx.

I’ve heard of Kdubs name but nothing else really, chad, james and ricky were battling the year i was born(2004) and before and after. But axell would be a great addition to sx, wonder what he will do over the finish and sx triples.

I don't think he'd even make the night show, he's defo not making the main event. I can't remember if they interviewed him at mxdn or an outdoor race and he couldn't even tell them who was racing. He makes more money doing whips and so he should, being that he's one of the best at it

Jump for show, corner for dough, and he’s not exactly known for his corners.

Not sure why you're getting downvoted. I saw the same video and wondered the same thing. 

I'd like to see him give it a go. Even if he doesn't make the night show, it's entertaining to watch someone like that and see how they stack up.

Like I tell my children. 

There is what you would like to see…

Then there is reality…

I saw him race SX before....or maybe it was Monster Cup? Anyhoo, he was at the back of the pack then and he was still trying to be a "Racer" at the time. The kid has huge balls, but im not sure why he would risk this now with all he has going for him.

He'd make the night show, no problem.

In my opinion, he'd make the night show...  But I doubt he'd make the main.  If he actually trained with a team and put the time in on the SX track, he might.

Probably a whipper tail, like 95% of the other dudes hitting it.

 

He'd make the night show for sure. Might be able to squeak into a 250 main as the field has been very thin the last few years. Why risk an injury when whips and wheelies pay the bills. Some of the shit he does blows my mind.

On a regular SX race night, I’d put him ~10 in the LCQ. 
 

Would be cool to see him give it a whirl again. Extremely talented individual!

He's never had a pro license...so I have just as much a chance of racing as he does...

I watched that video, too. He was skipping (not to be mistaken with skimming) the whoops through most of it, but he had the rest of the track pretty dialed. Can’t skip the whoops in a race, so I think it’s highly unlikely we’ll see him line up any time soon. I’m pretty sure he was just doing we we’d all love to be doing in the middle of the week instead of work… ripping around with his buddies for fun.

My question is, why would he? 
 

 He makes more than 90% of the 250 field riding his motorcycle in the hills with zero training. It’s a dream job.

Didn't he race a GNCC and his time matched the womens class?

Eh IDK man, might not be girding hours out on the bicycle but "training" comes in all forms. Dirt to dirt backflips over huge gaps don't just happen through dumb luck. 

 

His training is probably considerably more fun than racer's training though.

I'm not an Axel fanboy by any means but it makes me chuckle when people seriously think he doesn't have the ability/talent to make a supercross night show.

"He can't corner".... you really think a guy that has the much control over a motorcycle couldn't learn to corner fast enough to qualify for the night show?

Now the actual races (heat / LCQ), who knows, some guys don't do well with 21 other guys next to them, but I'm pretty sure he has enough talent to lay down one lap in qualifying.

You had me until you said Mitch. He has a ton of bike skills, and honestly a C class win at LLs is not nothing. It would be cool to see where he's at.

Yes he beat some good guys. He probably can qualify but he has very inconsistent results. He may make it but how good does he ride is another question........all-star.........or back of the pack keeping it upright........

True, but at that point, is it work?  
 

 The guy loves riding his motorcycle, I’d bet no pro enjoys riding their road bike.
