As most of his competitors fell by the wayside, literally, Soule stayed consistent and brought home his first X Games medal with a bronze. Motos and Friends, a weekly Podcast brought to you by Ultimate Motorcycling, and powered by the all new Suzuki Hayabusa—the ultimate sportbike.
Visit suzukicycles. The ultimate ride awaits! The iconic SV actually came out over 20 years ago, and it can be argued has subsequently become a cult classic, especially among the racing fraternity. Despite its age, this inexpensive middleweight still works extremely well with massive aftermarket support should you want to go fast with it. Chuck is an ex-racer and arguably the leading restorer of racing motorcycles in the country. Needless to say Chuck also gets to ride a lot of them, perhaps the most interesting one of which is the astounding Britten V which is displayed on the top floor of the museum, appropriately just outside the new Design Center.
Chuck rode the Britten several times so we get to hear his thoughts on that. Sign in. Log into your account. Forgot your password? Password recovery. Recover your password. Thursday, January 13, Get help.
Ultimate Motorcycling. A few months ago, Aussie Blake "Bilko" Williams wasn't sure if Best Trick was in his plans, but he's received an invite based on what promises to be a new variation. Bilko's one of the few who can claim even basic s; combined that with his silver medal that not just a few thought should have been gold, and it's fair to say the podium is within his reach.
The top slot, however, is a whole different challenge. Kyle Loza is both fully credible and a question mark. Ceaseless rumors about the bike flip backflipping the bike while floating next to it, connecting by one hand have recently been joined by rumors of a deeply tweaked wrist that won't heal and will make the trick impossible.
Count on him to have a couple variations of his trademark body varials, which have served him well enough for a Best Trick three-peat between '07 and ' He will adapt to the flow of the comp, taking chances if he has to and can. Loza is experienced and clever enough to do just enough to win or deliver something truly astonishing if the moment calls for it. Mark Monea announced himself to the world with a video showing a heretofore-unseen frontflip variation, the "Carry On.
He recently failed an attempt at the trick in front of a big Nitro Circus Live crowd, but reportedly didn't have practice time. But the secret to this trick is that it's considered easier than a typical front, as the off-axis nature of the spin actually decreases the amount of necessary rotation.
Now he just has to land it on the sport's biggest stage. Unlike most one-trick riders who have come to X wielding frontflips, Jackson Strong is an experienced freestyle rider.
Strong built a replica of the Best Trick setup, including the full drop-in ramp, at his home in Australia to get comfortable with what the Staples Center will demand. There's no question he can pull the front -- he's done it repeatedly under the spotlight of various live shows -- and his training should have him familiar with the tighter-than-usual set up. Strong will also jump with a full suspension others lock their front forks to get more rotation on the takeoff , so he should be able to hand whatever the landing throws at him.
If he pulls the first successful front in X Games competition, he's likely to be rewarded. Skip to main content Skip to navigation. Texans fire coach Culley after just one season. Houston Texans.
