I know a lot of people are going to hate the music but I came across this and it brought back a lot of memories. I know SX is next week but I still can not wait for the outdoors. This video has a lot of good footage like RC, can can ,to endo, to win as well as some mud. Henry, MC, Lusk, Dowd, Button, Lorrocco plus a lot of talent those years. It's a classic. http://vimeo.com/8060129

Awesome!! I still believe the YZ125 of Dowd was the coolest bike ever, especially with handguards!
Who crashed into the fence at the beginning of the vodeo? that was gnarly

that was one of the coolest clips i think I have ever seen. the part where (i think) emig goes outside to outside in that left and right bowl turn section is badass as hell.

The first helmets that fox came out with were the coolest helmets ever, if i could find one i would buy it. I was too broke when they first came out.

i think that's the only thing that the new great outdoor movies are missing,

some faster sections just to mix it up a bit the slow mo stuff is great but you need a faster bit thrown in here and there i reckon

Kind of crazy to think Limp Bizkit is already over 10 years old....


Thanks for posting... awesome footage.

Also, anyone know Robbie Reynard's injuries after that crash in the first turn towards the end? I'm just assuming he got hurt though, who knows; but it looked bad though...

I have the 250 review of that season, MC only made 3 rounds after a wrist injury, Emig came on really strong from Red Bud but then broke his thumb. Henry overcame Budds creed and Albee made the whole season uninjured to get 2nd in the points.

And Pichon took his only US 250 National victory at the opening round in Glen Helen ...

That's the best perspective video I've sen that really makes the GH downhills look STEEP..
Emig's outside pass in the Catcher's Mit was awesome, I remember a video of Bradshaw doing something similar back around '92. Anyone have footage of that? It blew me away at the time how fast he came into it.

Great vid, thanks!
