9 times out of 10, someone got landed on. Sad deal.
Damn, I rode there in september. Track was fun, it had a couple big jumps, and a little rhythm section that the novice riders were having a hard time with. I wonder where on the track it happened.

If you have ever been exposed to the death of a young one in motocross, you know what it's like. You can never forget it- it rips through your soul like knife through butter. There is almost nothing worse.

I feel for his family and friends!!! Truly sad.
I understand huck, I am gonna bite my tongue and not get on my "stupid sx-style jumps ruin motocross" soap box.
RIP little guy.

With the support of his family and his extended motocross family those that loved him will get through this trying time. He will live on in there memories.
Godspeed Wyatt and to your family, keep the faith and except the support offered by those around you.
I seem to remember it was NC, but I am not totally positive.
The jump where he crashed was a very easy tabletop with a very safe (non steep, almost rounded) take off. I was very surprised the hear that that was where it happened. The track was splitting up big bikes and small bikes all day, big bikes by themselves and 85s and 65s together.
So sad.
Godspeed young man.
Tear it up in the sky little man!
So sad.

This sport has been a part of my life since I was 8 years old (and I'm 46 now). But, I've basically been throwing rocks at it for the last 3 years or so. Fuck it, I'm over it. The sport out grew me, or left me, or somthing. You guys can have it now....
