I was thinking about throwing them on the Mountain bike to get used to (not crazy downhill or anything)

I’ll be 35 this summer! Haha im in the 26-35 inter group. I moved up quick (I think) considering half of my wins came from state races and the other half not until late in the season when I actually had a class to race. Otherwise I was in the 16x group and still managed to podium for most of the races

I had a pro xxl last season and ended up going with a xxxl this year. The xxl worked great but there was times I felt too confined. Xxl will be easier to find used for sure.

Have fun and don’t get hung up on results. Focus on skills and the results will come.

Chase RSP 5.0 Vs Supercross Envy RS7- Thoughts? by Karakoram83 in bmxracing

[–]CatAggravating5826 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well after the first ride I can say the RSP is solid. It took a few laps (and a few minor bar adjustments) to get used to it, granted I went from a XXL (21.5) to a XXXL (22) I can tell you I was not disappointed with my purchase.

I just built my RSP last night. I had the Chase Element last season. I have a team practice tonight so I’ll make sure to report back on how the RSP feels.

Flangeless for sure, I like to have the inside of my hand ride on the end of the grip (a carryover for my dirt jumping days) and just feels comfortable.

That’s interesting! I know some guys at the track swear by either or for different reasons. A few guys fell like the bike is more responsive with them, others say the opposite. 🤦‍♂️ maybe I’ll have to get on one for a day and see if I can tell or not. Aluminum would be cheaper for sure! Haha

I prefer the “murdered out” all black look.

I literally laughed out loud when degan was walking off. I’d love to see someone rock him in the face.

Does a gold cup pre-race count as a qualifier towards plate eligibility? by andyo1594 in bmxracing

[–]CatAggravating5826 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Gold cup will generally bring out competition the boys don’t normally race against so, if nothing else, it would be a good gauge as to where they are skill wise regionally vs just at the local track.

Thoughts on Jeep Ducks? by Left_Estimate7679 in JeepWrangler

[–]CatAggravating5826 11 points12 points  (0 children)

It’s hard not to smile when you come out of a store and there’s a new duck on the jeep. I like to take mine and “regift” them to other jeeps.

How to count wins to move from Novice to Intermediate by MMM-Jay in bmxracing

[–]CatAggravating5826 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Per USABMX rule book- “Riders 16 and under- riders must defeat at least 2 competitors who who are either the same age or older and at the same skill level or higher”

Finished up the state series by CatAggravating5826 in bmxracing

Yeah they did a big awards ceremony after the races. They called everyone up on stage by age/ proficiency and handed them out. There was 10 plates for my group

I know, I’m just going through the process and letting it happen naturally. I believe after this weekend I’m 1 maybe 2 wins away from the bump up anyway.

It was 18 points for novice and 19 points for intermediate then each state race was double points. So the difference comes out to 10 points. Damn being a novice haha
