Its just that, There's nothing as brutal as an outdoor national in July....
I'm glad to finally see pros strapping on the cams to let us see what these once top secret test tracks are like. That's definitely more frightening than any SX I've seen from the floor or ridden on.
My big wish is that people would stop putting helmet cams on just that, the helmet. While I can tell how difficult it is, you have to admit being that high up really distorts the perspective and makes jumps look like rollers. The GoPro chest mount really does it for me, brings more of the life out in the track for your average watcher who can't imagine how high and steep a triple face is.
Also, No surprise that they HD cam might look better...this one's not HD. But it is simple to use, and not all that expensive.
Good footage though.

How can you not like Shorty or Trey? Those dudes have skillz, and cool personalities.
Trey does some top notch goon riding. GuyB, did Trey bust out any goon laps with the camera on his helmet?
GUYB have you noticed that the practice tracks have not been maintained as well as they have been in the past? I don't ever recall seeing pictures of the SX tracks getting chewed up like in some of your photos. Maybe cutting corners here and there due to a smaller budget? Man hours and operationg heavy equipment isn't cheap.
I agree with Big Lenny, in some places it looked like he was really over-revving the 450. Almost sounded like a 250...
