i didnt relize people acually make a living for doing wheelies on a quad, i go to them because its alot of fuuuuuuuun, remember thats why we started to ride.......
and by the way the 25 dollars for third was because it was a rain date, it was on a wed night ....... im sure there will b alot more money at stake this time around and as far as dell making money off of it, good for him if it wasent for people like him there wouldnt be any of these events to go to to win money.......im sorry you feel this way man . im sure there will b alot of people there any way!!!

Yeah, that is a little rediculous. Stunting is for the fun, but a 3rd place in "pro" deserves a little more than 5 bucks profit. Guess I don't have to worry about it though. No quad... and even if I got in I deff wouldn't make pro, or top 3. Thanks for the warning Scott.

You know you're better than that. And for those who don't know; Hazen no longer rides quads, but when he did...
100ft motor killed manuals, combos, combos, combos, no-handers, ect, ect, ect. The man has skillz... Have a little confidence slappy!

Hazen, everybody has stepped it up a notch that's for sure. Unfortunatly you weren't on 4 wheels so we can't compare your skills to last year, but I'm sure if you were you'd be throwing it down like mad.
I didn't hear Jordan say it, but I know that Rizza and I both had a few issues the other day. He said his no handers were garbage for some reason, and my Bar Hops were terrible. I don't know if it was the heat or what, but my quad was just running like junk. I watch the video a few times and I'd land like I always did and the rotten thing would just drop....it's almost like I was hitting the rev limiter but I wasn't. I dunno if it's my plug or maybe a dirty air filter....probably going to change both of those things this week.
Oh by the way...if everything goes good this weekend you won't be the only 2 wheeled stunta we got
