2023 SX Discussion

Wasn't rooting for Webb to win either, but that just sucked. Battle was really good and I just wanted it to come down to the wire. Big up to Webb for retweeting AC's tweet saying there is nothing he could've done to avoid it. Hated to see Barcia go down too. Let's hope Anderson can bang a win out at least before this is over.

Welp

How absolutely random that was. It was also gnarly how he was just in the middle of a normal section with his foot maybe half an inch or less farther back on the footpeg. The timing is what was so cosmic. Luckily it wasn't a huge triple! Mount Rushmore has crumbled! Sexton looked so stricken and bewildered. We all were.

Is there a good replay somewhere? I couldn't tell where it happened.

All the replays don't have the greatest angles but it was in transition from the triple-over the table to the next jump. Here's a pic where you really can see his foot hyperextend.

This really sucks. Was such a good battle, guess this means no more Tomac, if he was already on the fence about getting out before. Also Star's post didn't make it sound like he'd come back.

Kenny to go 3 years in WSX, that's dope.

[jlv]

Thanks for the clips. Can't believe that's where it happened. Maybe a bit nose high but he didn't even overjump it.

[Pumaxcs]

Wow.

Thats all.

The broadcast team were already basically (without saying it) saying their farewells. We sat there for a while just in a stunned silence.

Part of me feels like he's going to try to find somewhere that will let him do SX only. As much as I love to see him outdoors, he has a real shot at McGrath's record

He does have a real shot, but if he averages 6 wins/year, he'll need to be around for 3 more years and start his 4th. He has 20 wins to go? Think farewell is in the books.

Think farewell is in the books.

Even PulpMX is already saying curtains for Eli. I think Eli is a tough, determined customer and want that record. He could very well come back to an SX only deal and grind out a few wins and end on a better note.

Achilles is a major injury. I don't think it's going to happen.

Really? Think he seemed rather indifferent on the all time wins list. Also the unwillingness to go beast mode this year signals to me that he's over it kind of.
