How is Anton?

Any words on Anton Nordström? I think they mentioned he crashed before the red flag.

Imagine a foot ball player carted off the field and they don’t provide an update on their condition? Never happens, but in MX we don’t hear anything about the guy they stopped a race for 🤷‍♂️

Haven't heard about Anton, but I was glad to see Jalek Swoll up and around after his crash. He looked knocked out for a second there in the 1st moto.

But if we talk about the down rider, how will they squeeze in 3 deegan segments or talk about how that one jump is as big as an NBA court 5 times

Did something gnarly happen with his crash?  What were Jett, Chase, and Eli talking about after the press conference?  It looked like Jett was saying someone "flew off" something big?

Based on the length of time that it took for them to restart the moto, I would have to imagine that it’s a serious injury. I hope not.

And yet you still have dumbasses on here complaining that they threw a red flag and how they didn't used to red flag back in the day. Imagine whining that a moto had a slight intermission because someone was severely injured...

Not to be a contrarian, but I haven't seen any threads complaining about the AMA throwing the red flag at Washougal on Vital today.  🤷‍♂️

If the player is hurt in the first half you won't hear anything till the second half, almost an hour to 90 minutes later. Did you expect to find out in 15 minutes?

As 4all said - he’s good. Decent concussion and a full body slam.

There's a post about it with a video. Hand swaped off one of the drop-offs in the back, and his bike cartwheeled over the fence into the spectators.

Thanks for update guys. When they red flag a race it's USUALLY something very serious and to hear crickets is bothersome. So glad that the young man is OK and ready to come back.

That was Jeremy Hand in that video. Different crash, different rider.

To me, that’s disrespectful to that racer. He paid hundreds of dollars to compete at one of your races. And you stopped a whole race for him, because he has a potentially a life threatening injury, carted off the track in a stretcher sometimes even. But no mention of him at all? Like at all? Just avoiding the subject and go on talking about Jett or Chase…..
