This is like watching Happy Gilmore after Happy learns how to putt. What a clinic

Maybe watch something else. It’s only been one short race so far.

This is the classic case of the Glendale effect. You have a very big NFL stadium, so naturally the jumps are forced to be huge to fill up the space. The result is very long run-ups to each jumps and very spaced out rhythms making it easy for the riders to hit the rhythms perfectly -- because they have so much time to get enough speed for each jump.

Also note the massive straightaway is splitting all the rhythms so no chance for a proper long rhythm -- instead quick short easy triple-triples or just a simple triple before a chance to rest on the straightaway.

In contrast, San Diego was tighter so it forced riders to be more precise with their timing in rhythms otherwise they case a jump.

I'm used to seeing the forks on SX set ups barely compressing when a rider gets on the bike, but, I was struck by when Deegs came off the track, and the rear (well both ends) end was so high, to then see him put his foot down, unloading the bike, and it Not 'lifting a millimetre. Kitchens at least 'lifted', perhaps an inch.

They might compress just a bit more, if my Bear Bulk was applied to theit  bikes..... But I very much doubt I'd ever get their set ups near bottoming.

Does the broadcast on Peacock look really bright and washed out to anyone else? Thought it was just my TV but the commercials look normal, then back to the washed out look when the broadcast resumes.

The side effects are worse than what they're trying to fix.
