Our photog, Gerald G. Geronimo (aka 3G), got this great shot of Ryan Dungey going over the double just before the tunnel jump this weekend in St. Louis. Dungey rode really well and it shows here: head over the front fender, seat bouncing, and dragging his knee over a rutted double. Pros only!


Check out the rest of 3G's gallery.

Gerald G puts out some of the best pics out there. He seems to always take some good ones of Dungey. His photo of Dungey getting his bike late at Southwick moto 2 last year was epic..

Anyone that says RD doesn't push it hard enough to stay with RV should look at this picture. RD is one bad MOTHER FARKER.

Looks like his foot is wedged between the swingarm and edge of the rut, in addition to nailing his knee on the lip.

Ouch.

Dungey wasn't doing that every lap; Millsaps was.

Yikes! That is why you wear boots. Those toes look far to close to the teeth on that sprocket!

It's photos like these that make me pause and admire the skill that these athletes have. Wow.

There are a few of RC like that where he's dragging body parts and grips through the dirt, WFO.

Is this the next thing to pick up some extra speed? First the Bubba Scrub and now this. We need a name for it. lol

Great pic.

Dungey is a beast. I truly believe his riding style and the hard work he puts in will keep him in the mix for a long time.

I'm a Villopoto fan and I even put this as my background screen for now. It's pretty awesome to look at.

Screw the Bubba Scrub. It's the "Dungey Drag" . All the kids will be doing it in 5 years. Screw the footpegs, just use your knee. Smile

Bros! This is like declaring the SX champ after 2 weeks. It is a long season, some other photo dude might come up with a better one...
