Not good when your shoulder dislocates.

Droppping like flies, at this stage it’s looking like Reed might have a shot at the title

Championship getting turned upside down. Hope both he and Tomac get healed up soon, it’s a better series with them.

I guess it’s time to learn how to set up the bike to blitz the whoops.. would be a shame for him to not win a championship because he can’t ride whoops and would seem awkward that the “best rider” in the world can’t ride whoops..

Reed did say no rider has ever won their first championship in their 5th season. This is the world taking care of that.

Roczen and Anderson need to take advantage of this. They're the only two racing tonight who are a legitimate threat.

There are others who might have a podium or a win in them. But no one is doing it every week outside of these guys.

Damn that's a bummer, not even two races and it's looking like two title contenders are out.

It's amazing. Trey Canard was brought in to make the tracks safer and it only took 2 rounds to knock the top 2 contenders out of contention.

Yaa ive always found it super weird that he can be such a good rider and cant blitz a set of whoops, just like Alessi. But on the other hand how many times would he have wadded his shit up and gotten hurt trying to blitz a set of big whoops?

I guess they should remove doubles and whoops from supercross tracks.

I think it’s all mental.. he’s intimidated by them in my opinion

Im at the race and let me tell ya, Marv was HORRIBLE in the whoops. Like, shockingly bad. ?
He got knocked it before A1 through whoops. Seems to have made him more scared of them.

You can hardly blame rider error on the tracks....?

X2. SX is good for casual fans and tv viewing I guess. It lays waste to careers, though.

I like DV's Twitter comment. It does ring true. Seems like whatever obstacle on a track that is your slowest. You would work on till it was second nature.

I'm speculating here, but it looks like Starvin' Marvin has never lifted a weight in his life. Dude looks like he's 135 lbs soaking wet. Might be smart to add some weight lifting to his program to strengthen those joints and muscles to prevent injury.

Marvin just looked out of sorts in that heat race. The whoop jumping technique wasn't working. He just looked tight.

aldon probably overtraining the guy and not feeding him enough. because when youre a cyclist like aldon everything is the tour de france and you always have to weigh N-2kg
