Is that I don't hear so much about J-Law anymore.
oh and thread diversity.
that's good too.
The best thing about Jett Lawrence hitting the scene
I can’t understand you anymore than I can him!!!
I got to see Hannah, Bailey, Ward, Johnson, Carmichael, Stewart , Omara, McGrath, Bayle, and countless others and now get to see Jett take this era to a new level. I am damn lucky.
Ferrandis, ever since Tomac came to Star, he's had a complex + the bike not great in MX. Roczen not there, Webb has always been average on the KTM in MX, Anderson not there, Sexton not there, Tomac not there. Jett is good but I have seen starting gate with better adversity. The only one who can match Jett is Plessinger but not on all tracks. I like to beleive in it but I m not totally sure either.
Scary to think that this is his learning year, he will only get better from here.

They think Jett, hunter, and j law are related.
They’ve been reserved with jumping right to the “undefeated” hype unlike what they did in SX, I’m pretty sure they polled the SX instagram about whether or not he’d go undefeated at literally A1…
At some point the whole broadcast every weekend is gonna become “undefeated this, 08 Stew that.” It’ll be great he will have made history but man is it boring in the moment. Good thing they have Haiden alone carrying their ticket sales on his bed bug infested shoulders.
Someone less refined than Weigandt would have said they're like crabs.
I don’t think he’s taking the sport to a new level, he’s just faster than everyone on the national scene atm.
While I'm not gonna claim anything it should be mentioned that after winning the first 250 moto in Germany Lucas Coenen said he watched a lot of the Lawrence's and tried to ride and 'float' like them..
So maybe there's a new level coming
Their not?
I think he has developed a new riding style. From attack the track to finesse the track. Dont ride the track like everyone else does. Find a way to avoid the nasties. I am sure this has been said. I would love to see a full race breakdown of clips of him hitting sections vs others.
“Float” I would equate that to smooth. I can remember when we used the same adjectives about Windham when he moved up to 450s. IMO, Jett is another Kdub without having RC as his competition.
He will and so will Hunter.
its great to be an Aussie right now.
Forever #22
No, there not.
But if J-Law were to come back for a National, now’s the time Hahah. Start a thread.
Watch moto 1 pala holeshot.
Jett jumps the 3rd corner from a breaking bump. To the exit. Every1 else is bouncing thru the corner.
Jett IS Kdub v 2.0 only there's no RC /JS/Reedy to stop him...................
Anyone
Pit Row
else
tired
of
these
titles?
I dont think so. He is riding the track different. I watched him at high point go half the second moto exploring the track, finding new lines and saving energy. Then he used all that to pass a bunch of guys and make up a ten second lead.
He's 19 get used to it he can possibly be racing 10 more years!
I've seen a lot of good talent over the years it's rare, I'm learning to appreciate the talent and know those brothers are good for the sport. Although I always root for anyone from the USA first!
Floating and finessing the track is not a new riding style. Kenny, Chase, Windham and plenty others have always ridden like that. Jumping breaking bumps into turns is, again, nothing new. I watched Bobryshev in Charlotte jump about 35 feet off a breaking bump into the corner behind pit lane.
That's a new riding style? You're kidding, right?
The best thing is everyone keeps saying he's only winning because its a weak field. But nobody has an answer to stopping him. Tomac and Chase's terrible starts would not have an answer either. Both would be scratching their heads.
The first time I saw Jett race was at Mini Os on the SX track. He jumped the inside landed in a flat corner made the pass stick all standing up. At this moment, anyone who saw that style knew Jett was "hitting the scene."
Agreed man, I think people often take comments like this as a negative, but it's just a fact. Gautier Paulin and a lot of other MXGP/MX2 guys do some cool shit along these lines too.
I do think it's also a fact that Jett, and Chase to a fair extent, have put all these pieces together and refined them and are perfecting this approach to riding, even if it's isn't new as such.
It's super impressive to see.
