His timing looks good, now we only need to see how he does in the whoops. 

Edited to add: Looked like Farres rode by in the background towards the end of the video.

i’m impressed… looks smooth and i’m sure they will ease him into US SX whoops. It’s only his first day what did you guys expect to see him blitzing them already… come on man!

Looks like hell do just fine over here and get faster and faster.

Maybe its the bike but I kinda see Barcia(2.0) speed and flow without the over-rev.

I know this is the running joke to say, but he really does. Hope he comes over, the more the merrier.

He is coming in 25. Everyone at pierer knew he was going to be fine on sx and it’s what’s in his heart. The only reason for this test was to appease the bosses to “make sure” this is what he wants to do. I have this information on a reliable source. Y’all can believe it or not that’s fine.

Risk of injury screwing up his GP season.

He’s got really good style. Hope he makes the jump. He will do great. It looks like his timing and flow are already there. Just build him a few sets of whoops back home and hammer them out every chance he gets. Be ready in no time.

Unironically. I have no doubt after seeing this that we will see him race some supercross at some point.

I agree !! I was not expecting him to look that good and flow so well. He looks like he's spent time on an SX track. I know he's going to have to focus on whoops, but shit that was impressive.

Great article Lewis, this really laid it all out much better than anyone has so far.
