Props to him and the team, including Will Hahn. He earned it today, no luck involved. Got the monkey off of team Austria's back too. Hope he can keep it rolling. Into the top 3 with plenty of races left. He's been bashed a fair bit, and he's definitely due some respect.
Mossiman deliver's a podium after showing speed all year.

There’s nothing on the track more exciting than when Bambam’s on the gas. When he was scrubbing/launching that blind downhill my jaw was on the floor. That had to be the gnarliest thing I’ve seen all season.

Barcia's fun to watch when he's feeling good and flowing with the bike. I hope he does some more winning this year, and can translate that into next years SX season.

It was never the bike. Barcia in top form makes most races much more exciting, fan or not.

...I have not seen riding like this since James was on his game.

What kind of talent and balls do you need to do this?

The dude was laid over low, feet on the pegs, and f@$# flat tracking off of that big ass drop off. Lap after lap!! I dont think even a young Stewart would do such. I took screenshots of it too lol.

I think he is so fit right now that he can throw down 30 +2 with confidence and abandon. He might not be clinical like Ken or Beast mode like Eli or unrelenting like Ferrandis but he is the wild child for sure. This is the Justin we've been waiting to see. I hope he can keep it going Wink

A lot of people on here were talking about him being the only signing for TLD. Lots of “he will do okay then go back to 8th and 9th place”. But he put in a super consistent SX season And now the same outdoors. He’s got a win in each series, which I think only Eli and KR can claim and he’s probably going to top 5 both series. That’s an impressive year 1 for Gas Gas and TLD.

Hopefully with Will Hahn coming aboard, they can add another tier 2 450 rider. Someone like DeanO, Antsie, or even a Noren type rider who won’t break the bank but will send it into the top 10 every now and then. The bike looks too good to only have 1 rider.
