Recognizing Matt Burkeen, in the interview and riding shot was cool, along with talking to some of the riders we don't see in every video. Thanks

Jett barely cracks the throttle on that Honda. i bet he's running taller gears than most. kid is a freak of nature. amazing to watch.

[justlucky]

4:28 "Without the off track thing, and the kid and the dad and all that stuff..." Whats he talking about? I missed out and only got to watch the highlights.

[matthughes]

Jalek sure doesn’t like riding on the balls of his feet, AJ’s probably having an aneurysm watching him in those slow-mo shots lol

[RydenAround]

Only one bike sounded super sweet out of the whole bunch...

[Mxslots]

[lonestar]
