I hope the 3 mains make the racing interesting. The track isn't helping to make this fun to watch. Why cut the whoops before practice?

Dear Feld, grow balls, put real whoops in. The fact that you have a max of 13 whoops when sx used to have 18-22 is sad.

The whoops are a joke. With how much they've already broken down, will they even make it to the final main event?

The whole track is a joke. 30 seconds of it is a triple, then a choo choo train, followed by breaking bumps, then a 90 degree before a triple.

I'm all for Matthes throwing out jokes, but not on Saturday when he is supposed to be a professional journalist. Craig is going to take some serious shit for this comment, assuming it is in fact a joke.

Not sure if it was meant to be a joke or not. I’m not all caught up on Canards deal, but isn’t that who the riders are supposed to be voicing their opinions to?

Yes, but I'm not 100% sure on how it all goes down. I don't think Canard is at every round and I also don't know how much power he really has. Cutting down whoops to breaking bump size before practice even starts does not, in my opinion, fall under the safety umbrella. It appears to be a tactical decision to help rider(s) who have an injury.
