All the talk of MA800 has overshadowed a couple other stories maybe.It's shaping up to be a great series this year between Alessi,CF,the 2 TM's and a bunch of dif manufacturers represented too.
Speaking for myself,I'm surprised at Hill so far.As good as Medaglia is,I didn't think he'd stay ahead of JH.Anyone have anything on him,team,issues etc?

How about not racing outdoors since 2008? Hill has skills which can shine in SX, but outdoors the best guys are usually in the best shape. Not sure what his training program consists of.

The Backflip ruined his career. Great kid, tons of talent, but he hasn't been the same since. He's actually lucky he can still go fast on a motorcycle, his ankle is trashed. Hopefully he can secure a ride for SX for '15.

He didn't look super pumped on the day, not real comfortable or smooth like I expected him to be. My VERY uneducated guess would be that he'd be well out of the top 10 down south.

But yeah, he didn't look very happy and he bike didn't look ultra smooth like some others. It was like 50°F so that might be a bit of a climate adjustment from the nice weather in California
