Thank god Ryder got up. OMG

Because a rider usually knows whether they are hurt or not. They go off what the person tells them. It’s not just moto that does this. He was walking around after the race, basically fine. Hard to believe because it looked bad.

Watching his limp unconscious body get sucked into the back tire like that 😖

so so glad this wasn’t a worse outcome 

I think there’s a very real possibility 38 goes right into his back without a mess up. 

And nobody talkn bout how deegs was completely out of line sending that line at that time... he didn't gaf if Ryder lived or died... 

You want deathcross? Deegs gonna show ya deathcross!!! Lmaoooooo

That was one of the scariest things I've seen. When his head jerked after the second hit from the bike, my jaw dropped and my heart about stopped. When I saw him walking off the track, I couldn't have been happier. It was such a relief. Hopefully he won't have any issues with his neck or spine in the future.

It wasn't even "a line", he was cutting the track.

You can't jump over tuff blocks at the inside apex of a corner.

Deeges was cutting the track (cheating) again...

Should not have happened. 

I AGREE I  CANT BELIEVE HE WASNT IN A NECK BRACE EITHER SPECIALLY THE HITS HE TOOK WERE BRUTAL BUT THE WHIPLASH ONE HAD TO BE BAD . IF HE SAID HE WAS ALRIGHT OR NOT THEY SHOULDNT LISTEN TO SOMEONE WHO WAS JUST KNOCKED OUT ..I HEARD HE DIDNT REMEMBER THE ACCIDENT FOR ABOUT AN HOUR .THEN STARTED  REMEMBERING  EVERYTHING. .  IT SEEMS LIKE EVERYTIME THE KID GETS UP TO SPEED SOMETHING HAPPENS  TO HIM   

The kid has been on fire lately. I’m glad that he walked away from this.

He’s staying in the same program on the same bike…but, it’ll be white instead of red. That last part is kinda sad…but, I’m just stoked to see him goin’ into the ‘26 SX season with all this recent success.

It happened in the summer of 2005 with RC and Stewart.  I saw it happen enough times I saw the pattern and setup to get a photo of it at Binghamton. I had noticed a pattern of the 2 riders taking lines that cause problems at the bases of faster hills  with certain bumps.   

I think its just the 2 different styles of riding and the typical lines each rider takes that resulted in it happening with RC and JS and again with Haiden and Ryder . I am surprised it doesn't happen more often. But with darkfish being used to figure out the faster lines, I guess it also creates more awareness of riders of the possible lines being taken too.   

I was so relieved to see him up and walking. I do agree with the poster that said they should have put him on a backboard .  I can only hope that the medics did not see the crash and went off of the assessment alone, when they spoke to Ryder.  The last crash that I remember that looked that bad was Canard and  Ryan Morais . And they were both injured pretty bad.  It happening in a turn like that must have helped along with the sand?  

I'm just glad he's better then it looked like he was . Even if he has some injuries they are likely not as bad as I feared at first.  

I think we might start seeing the old Ryder D in 2026 and if thats the case he could very easily be a contender. He will be on a better bike and a more proven bike,, RJ won on it and i believe Ryder will too,,It looked like the GasGas was down on Horsepower this year
