Insane amount of skill and balance to do that at the speed he was riding at through those whoops. Awesome stuff!

That was awesome. Was pissing the missus off with how I was going off about it. Deadset ballsy move at those speeds. She just didn't understand how crazy it was. Lol.

Great example of why ET3 is my dude. Becoming a bit frustrating to see him get OK starts and have poor first halves of main event 1st laps, but you can't deny the kid's talent. He makes the monotony of RD5's dominance entertaining to watch, at least. Big things in the future for him, no doubt.

Definitely the highlight of the race for me. He almost had the bike straight up.

Yeah it was cool but let's not forget washing out his front before finish line. Taking Reed out and then taking himself out. Oh wait also taking himself out in A1? It's all sort of relative isn't it?

Everytime you see that shit happen you're just like, wow, it's so fast, looks like they're doing it easy, why don't they do it every lap... and then you think of how bad things are gonna be if they miss a hoop.

WOW.

yeah i just think that must be incredibly hard to do and not wipe out.

and probably why he doesnt pull it every lap, just in the zone on some laps.

great to watch

That was entertaining to watch, the front bobbed up and there was no way he was gonna back off to let it down, how long did he go for 40 - 50 yards, in 10 secs?

What the fuck does all that have to do with him riding that incredible wheelie? Cant you just appreciate some great riding technique without spewing your shit? Christ.
