GoPro: Ryan Villopoto - Monster Energy Cup Win 2012

[@SmokeumPeacepipe]

the skill and strength possessed by these riders is alien like. these guys are not your standard human beings. so frickin impressive.

[@AncientGreek]

hybrid reptilians maybe?

[@sigurd2498]

Only top notch athletes can do this. The hardest sport to master, and the hardest sport to do physically and mentally.

[@Loostrek]

WOW ! Now I'm convinced by the low light and audio performances of the Hero 3 ! And Ryan Villopoto is impressive !

[@BaNgAs13]

The sounds quality of this video is so good, i love the sound of 2 strokes!

[@alchemist3724]

You do know there are no 2 strokes in this video right? You do understand these are 4 strokes correct? You do not honestly think this is a 2 stroke bike right?

[@IIOllieFTWII]

Holy shit... watching this, you really do gain an appreciation of the speed and skill involved. Simply Amazing

[@JuiceboxTNWP27]

The new mic is amazing. I hated the wind noise on previous models. Good job gopro. You guys are the best

[@OldManCassius]

I could watch this all day. Just love watching a pro do his thing.

[@TheKnightRider24]

Ryan Villopoto and a Kawasaki, two beasts on one track.

[@devodar2579]

RV and the Goat, best riders of all time, no doubt about!!!!!

[@outdoordj]

Gotta love the HERO3 audio - great improvement!

[@KTMracer189]

Would be badass if you guys did a complete version of the race! RV is the man!

[@AshitaNohana]

Thanks for the ride, that was insane !!

[@jakeflores3077]

Ryan dungey 5 flew a barrier at ryan villopoto

[@crazylegs1014]

After a year of Villopoto not racing... He came back STRONG and riding FAST! :D

[@Tide12NC]

By far the best of the Monster cup tracks. Only thing is they could have went on up into the stands on that one turn.

[@alexbarcic]

It's insane how consistent he is every lap. Same spot every time.

[@JemileDancer]

true man how can u not like this

[@MSteinbacher1]

This sounds so much better compared to the old Hero2 videos.

[@robschwartz2555]

love the dirt bikes - these guys are awesome...

[@toddjacobs5660]

Villopoto was faster than Carmichael & Stewart at times , crazy fast ...

[@eric6rock]

So sick, this was my first "Supercross" race ever i was about 9. Just recently i came back for my First SMX race ever and 2nd race out of the state of Cali! Man i remember getting the MEC 2012 hat, that thing is long gone now lol.

[@nivrasi]

i have been there, villopoto left the other riders no chance to get close to him he was amazing!!

[@CPRUCorp]

Dude this guy is ridiculously fast. Especially the Kawasaki that cant stop wheelieing like a boss... so much power

[@Roflmao0001]

Dude. For about 4 years I owned a '03 Scorpa SY250 and did Trials competitions. Now I ride a '64 Honda CR250 and do VMX. I've got a fair bit of motorbike experience. And unlike most people I've learned to ride a bike that isn't easy and doesn't handle everything properly

[@NordiskVillmark]

Amazing sound quality? YES

[@NERFable11]

Villopoto = best rider to ever live Like if you aggree

[@MLGtroll365]

damn that epic start tho, how can you dislike this...

[@phillewee]

this is how videos should be made !

[@TheBombdre]

Hes one of my favorite riders.

[@lived666]

“In racing, when you whip your bike, you stay a lot lower and you get back down on the ground faster, and the quicker you get to the ground, the quicker you can get back on the gas. You definitely have to hit jumps faster than normal when whipping, because you lose a lot of kick off of the lip, so to make up for having less air, you have to go faster in order to clear the jump." -- Kevin Windham

[@RyanMcIntyre]

Wow, Grant had awesome timing over the step on/step off at 1:34

[@Noah-rc3ip]

i think he was trying to quad, but he still hit the line really well

[@yfzshane]

the real responce is that most do it for style but the pros and A class etc do it to "scrub off speed" off the lip of the jump turning the bars alowing you to go faster up to a jump and not overshooting it.

[@simm1mar]

Tough block nearly went from GoPro to Go4aRow. Only a few will really experience a ride like that. He's a great rider and fantastic to watch but being aussie I have to say 'Go Reedy 22 motorsport. Bring on Chad with a GoPro.

[@georgedktm950]

Ryan is THE man ! go champ !

[@NJditt]

They move their rear wheel to the side in the air to reduce the hangtime. The more time on the ground, the more time they can accelerate.

[@MenacingTrees]

It's mainly to keep the bike lower to the ground... but honestly its just to get in to the flow of the track. gotta feel it.

[@waydej87]

Dude 2013 supercross is gona be insane.

[@NBproductionspresent]

sound is sooo much better

[@roger1793]

Wow impressive video and riding also. Thats why i leave it to the professionals.

[@tylershaud3603]

youre the man vilopoto!

[@awsomenorwegianguy]

Thanks mate!!

[@Radmx-com]

GoPro Hero 3 Black Edition, looks sweet in 1080p.

[@15jonpaa]

Awesome video!

[@N2Dsander]

Awesome audio

[@SimpleAbundance]

He is ridiculously fast, incredible.

[@ZacFries]

You need the case for the standard mounts, and the case is definitely the main protection for it

[@blakedotexe]

Didn’t even show him going through the joker lane :(

[@psychotyrone]

Excellent race.

[@harveyantrobus1147]

Go ryan

[@AirOwnage20]

Aw man this was my favorite underwear!

[@LucasKussowski]

Full of excitement, suspense and danger - WHOAH!!! :)

[@MrSleeps]

props ryan very nicely done.

[@chrismorris9882]

I never realized it before but I believe that Dungey let RV go around him approx 1 min into the video. In the previous turn RD looks back and sees that its RV and then he lets him go on that ski jump / roller to straight section.

[@jonathanschultz3629]

Dungeys shifter was bent. Stuck in 2nd gear

[@ATVSANDPYROTECHNICS]

I would reccomend buying a 4 stroke. Brands like Honda, Yamaha, or KTM are all great they are not the cheapest but will work for years and years and are well worth it.

[@icool247]

I don't like Villopoto but the dude is crazy fast. Who will knock him off of his champion streak?

[@DirtRacerProductions]

Great audio.

[@7domonic7]

CAN WE GET JAMES VIDEO !!!!!

[@Clintwoodz]

This video made my nostrils clear up.

[@vartian]

Was the audio also directly from the GoPro? No external mic attached? If so, the quality is remarkable.

[@FUNKYFINGERS4U]

he stands up so hes steady and you can move your eyes you know not your head anyone can do that

[@seanmccullough6077]

so insane, i would've went down so many times riding like these guys lol

[@hannamorningstar5067]

you are still my champ

[@Tawmmy]

I get worn out after 2 laps of riding. These guys are insane doing 20 laps going 5x faster than me and in front of thousands of fans and on tv.

[@Roflmao0001]

No it doesn't, if anything it increases drag. They throw the bike sideways making a larger surface facing forward which would slow them down. The only time it would be beneficial is on a hip jump where they need to turn in the air. I've been around loads of people who rode before people did whips. It's to look cool that is all

[@sonyxyde]

WOWW AMAZING !!!!!!

[@MattS6993]

The idea is to cut through the air more efficiently and to keep balance

[@riotmaxxx1984]

man! dungey almost had him with a tough blocks! good thing RV2 is still up on his wheels! GO RV2!!!

[@LAPIERREJOJO]

you are the best travis !

[@Rgarcia133]

This makes me want to ride my dirtbike again!

[@Jessehandle-c2r]

I wish I could let the Beast out of a 450 like them guys can

[@Roflmao0001]

Have you seen the guy who was number one in NZ for years in the late 70's race? He is not slow. Have you ridden a 400cc 2 stroke motorcross bike? They are not slow. Whips are and always have been just for style, and that's coming from people who were around when they were first started being done. Scrubs are different, but whips are just for looks.

[@Dobanat3r]

Description says shot 100% on the HD HERO3® LOL NOOOOOOO, they switched the camera mid race and told everyone to start racing again lol XD

[@79brumley]

I'm a fast 450 A rider and the guy in last place would lap me easily, That tells you how fast the top guys are!

[@awsomenorwegianguy]

Thanks for the help!! i'm going to follow your advice

[@royrodrigator]

They are crazy!!!!!!!!

[@MrPoutiainen]

25%Motocross 25%Supercross 50%Rev Limiter

[@AndrevossDe]

great sport

[@awsomenorwegianguy]

Great!! My quad is a Honda. So i think i'm just gonna stick with that.(ktm is my dream but those cost so much). So you would recomend for example a Honda 250 4 stroke?

[@VahaByT]

вау!, я сидя в кресле тяжело дышу. Вот так адреналин!!!

[@nielsscherpereel471]

its called scrubbing... they can keep the speed up like that, and dont jump to high..

[@Truggy811]

EPIC!!

[@leodu56]

Merci Codjordan

[@rfolmar286]

its called having style

[@ATVSANDPYROTECHNICS]

Its helpfull I rode a 350 quad for a few years before getting a dirtbike. Its defintetly is completely diffrent. What type of riding do you plan on doing trails or something like motocross? I ride a 2 stroke wich is sometimes a pain on trails , dont get something with to much power like a 250 2 stroke. I would recommend getting a 125 2 stroke or a 125 or 250 4 stroke. Reply if you have anymore questions i would be glad to help.

[@ASTALAVISTAREC]

AHH YEAH HELMET CAM WITH VILLOPOTO! :D

[@89Trashmaster]

like a game, awesome

[@WindFireAllThatKindOfThing]

If you would have told me these guys would make these track times and that much air time and acceleration on a Thumper, back in the 80's, when we were JUST getting Mono-Shock 2 strokes, and Jeff Ward was just a new kid on a Kawi, I would have told you to lay off the Peyote.

[@MXRewind]

NEVER MvA is discontinued now.

[@hawkplaya94]

This is the epitome of "what goes up must come fucking down"

[@CarlRaagel]

makes it look so easy

[@Thatguy5806]

That's so incredibly fast!

[@vadimkilller]

STYLE POINTSSSSS!

[@Smumpism]

For some reason I've always considered this to be the easy version of mountain biking. It's probably just as hard in its own way.

[@Tormentality]

hahaha the 'braaap' he gave JG as a warning "I'm comin in on the inside" was swell.

[@coreybotdorf1568]

Pass on the ktm gave me chills

[@IntoTheDirtshop]

how the hell do they correct the sound on these videos??

[@abrarchowdhury4776]

Can someone please tell me how they see what the mechanics are saying when they’re going this fast

[@MotocrossRacer711]

Gopro edited the video to the last lap at 3:05. He hit it. It just was edited out of the video.

[@tianchung8293]

My favorite youtuber Jake Dunning is good dirt biker. I like this video thank you GoPro

[@RCMarty]

Nice block-pass Villopoto !!!
