Red Bull Straight Rhythm Analysis



Can we see Super cross races like this in the near future? There are many questions and doubts regarding this style of racing. If you miss or fail a jump the injury can be extremely high due to the speed. Techniques will have to change as well as the bike. Techniques such as scrubbing harder and practice start more than turns. The bike setting will probably change to a faster and with more torque bike. This can heavily influence big industries since they will not focus on handling but more on speed or suspensions. With this being said, it can be inferred that racing can get really interesting. There can be more competition and probably new riders can now participate. The question now is, how far are we from this type of competition, 5 years, 10 years. Also another question can be, what racers will accept this challenge? Many riders are known for their incredible turning and rut speeds. In this races, they would be heavily influenced without turns.







                                              Scrubbing will be a technique that must me mastered in order to gain time. With a perfect scrub, you can gain essential time, giving you space to breathe. This will change practice formats and basically the whole sport. The riders will have to train scrubs and get used to the speed.









Whoops are also a major part of the straight rhythm. Not all riders can pass the whoops as James Stewart or Justin Bogle. Many will have to practice and believe me, practicing whoops are hard, or you go HAM or nothing. Whoops are extremely challenging as well as it requires technique, keeping the balls of your feet on the pegs and pressing hard in the legs as well as a constant flow of acceleration.




The winner will be the one who throws it down harder and goes faster.

The Top 10 Most Important Gear For Motocross

Equipping yourself with the proper motocross gear is essential for a safe riding. The gear you need to go racing can be expensive, but it can save you from a costly trip to the hospital. Having the proper equipment will help keep you safe but it will also give you the peace of mind to ride and have fun. I've listed it all in order of importance and offer a few pointer to help you visualize why they are so important and expensive.







10. Falling is part of motocross. When you fall, you usually stretch your arm first. When you do this and crash, you usually scrap your elbow. This can be extremely painful so that is why elbow pads are essential.














9. Wrist braces have just been discovered in the last 5 years. They were created after several riders would snap their wrists after applying so much pressure in order to hold the bike up. They are clinically researched and proven to be a must use protection.





















8. The kidney belt will help to support your lower back and internal organs. Many times a rider will be injured with internal problems like a split liver, bruised kidneys or split spleen so it is better to have a kidney belt. Better safe than sorry.










.

7. Neck braces have extremely high technology. They protect the rider from having vicious movements that can damage your neck. It is important to protect this part of the body since it is connected to all the parts of the body.
















6. Having a gear consists of a pant and a jersey. All of this combined create a set of gear. Without a gear, you are not allowed to race.













5. Gloves are extremely important in the sport. They will help you get a good grip to hold the bike and it will help prevent getting painful calluses on your hand.













4. A good set of goggles are always needed in motocross. Your vision is one of the things you need to have clear in order to have a good race. Goggles can come with many fun artifacts like tear offs or roll offs which help avoid dirt on your goggles.









3. Knee braces are not considered too much when it comes to protection. They protect not only the knee but the ligaments that are inside the knee. Motocross involves a lot of knee movement so it is vital to have it protected.















2. Boots can be uncomfortable at first but they are specially made for motocross. Once you get used to them you are going to find yourself using them at ease.









1. Helmets are considered to be the most important equipment a motocross gear can offer. This is because it protects one of the most fragile parts of the body which is the head. Helmets can be expensive but they are worth each penny you spend.
