The long awaited SherGas is due in 2010 also.  Well, not really, but someone from the Thumper Talk forums created an image of one.  It seems the consensus is that the 2010 Sherco and 2010 GasGas look an awful lot alike.  See for yourself.

9/14/2009 What rule should be used to score this ride?

September 14th, 2009 12 comments

In the following video of Steve Krouse riding section 10 at Jersey Shore there is a sudden interaction with the ground.  The rider was awarded a “5″ but he did not agree with the checker.  I have read the rules a couple of times and couldn’t find a rule that states if a handlebar touches the ground it is a “5″.  Which was the call by the checker based on the mud on his lever.

The score cannot be changed.  It did not affect the outcome of the trials event.  This is not a debate on whether or not the checker made the right call.

It does beg the question, what rule should be used to score this ride?   Lets see if the current rules posted on this site can be used to determine how to score the ride.  What do you think?
