Chase Sexton opens up about training with James Stewart - Gypsy Tales Podcast

Chase Sexton is the next generation of Supercross supertar. At 22 years old, he is entering his 2nd year in the premiere class for 2022. We have been wanting to do this podcast for over a year now and I am stoked we were able to make it happen. After the struggles of 2021 for Chase, it was the perfect time to make it happen as he builds into 22' a wiser young man.

Chase seemed a little reserved about going into the experience of working with James. I imagine it was a little bit of a bad match but he showed respect to the fastest man on the planet.

[@Ghostdog4]

One Athlete who is at another level trying to teach another Athlete who is at another level has its limitations. That unexplained extra talent/ability/desire can't be taught. Great to see MX guys who have an intellect. I'm impressed with Mr Sexton

[@thebordenasylum7726]

It would be like asking a Shaolin monk to teach you how to stand on your head using one finger in a year. What James could do can't be "taught" and if it could, it would take years to master. It's not something that you just tell somebody how to do and it gets done in a few coaching sessions.

[@pv6304]

I've done a lot of Martial Arts over the years as well as Motocross. I've always had a belief, that the most talented competitors in any Sport are not the best Coaches. Because things that they can do, come naturally or in the moment, they can't explain or teach you, because they just do it, and can't always understand why you can't. The Best Coaches are the Guy's who maybe are top 10 guy's, that had to work their butts off to even get noticed. These guy's had to learn the hard way.

[@lukekelly5115]

Alot of the best competitors left it on the field with nothing to prove, thats why they don't push it in coaching. A guy that never achieved anything themselves still has a lot to prove.

[@pv6304]

@@lukekelly5115 I don't know about that, many top athletes I've met over the years in multiple of sports aren't always the best Coaches. Especially if they are extremely naturally talented. Because they can do things without thinking about it that many others just can't. It's almost freakish how they make something look so simple, yet only a very rare individual is capable of doing it. I've always found the guy's that had to really grind it out to get to the top, and go that extra mile, made the best Coaches. If you look at all the sports world wide today, many of the Top Coaches were not always the best player's. Don't get me wrong, they were bloody good, and probably made it to the top in their field, but they weren't the Best of the Best. They weren't a Ricky Carmichael or James Stewart, but more like a Michael Burn or a Ryan Huges etc.

[@lukekelly5115]

Like I said theres no reason for them to explore trying to quantify or teach how they were so good.

[@pv6304]

@@lukekelly5115 I'll agree to Disagree, I'm not sure they can explain to someone else how or why they were so good, because it came naturally to them. Even a guy finishing 15th or 20th, leaves everything they have out on the track. There are 100 different things that can determine the gap from 1st to 20th. But even a guy who finishes 20th in a National or a GP is a badass on a bike. We are often talking about a 100th of a second here or there but if you have 15 corners, and just as many jumps if not more, that can very quickly add up to 1, 2 or even 3 seconds a lap. Likewise a simple suspension setting may cost 1 or 2 seconds a lap.

[@spainobmxer69]

Can’t agree with you more, the best coach I ever had for BMX as a teenager was a guy that would make the A final at nationals a couple of times a season. He had next to no natural talent but he trained himself half to death and had to teach himself the techniques that the guys on the podium could do naturally. He could pick apart everyone’s technique and tell you what you need to do to improve. He would have a guy there that would podium every week with him but all he could do was show you how to do it, but the coach would be the one to tell you how to do it after you’d watched, and why? because the guy who podiumed week in week out could just do it and it was second nature, but he had no idea why he could do it but others couldn’t. The ones who have had to work for it always make the best coaches because they’ve either taught them self or had someone teach them and those lessons stay with you. The naturally talented guys just had to make sure they had a good diet and would ride once a week, maybe twice if it was the week before a big race.

[@Joelontugs]

I get exactly what he's saying you can't teach what James Stewart had as they often imitated never duplicated

I totally get what Chase is saying. Coaching/teaching is an art and not everyone can do it and be good at it. Ex champions usually don't make good coaches. Just because you were great at something doesn't mean you can teach or motivate someone else to also be great at it.

[@hung8969]

In any sport. The best at it, sometimes are the worst coaches. Some people just can’t coach. It’s not a bad thing on them. I’ve experienced this in many sports, wrestling, fighting and bodybuilding. Sometimes these guys are so talented they skipped so many steps they don’t even realize it. Especially the top level. Some just make it look so easy. That they can’t break it down in steps for someone who doesn’t get it.

[@sunrealclothing]

Cool to see you grown up Chase... You've worked so hard... Your style reminds me of KR & AC. Which is awesome! What James had in common with Jeremy is they both optimized their drive on the downsides and through the corner apex... But they would pump the track a lot like bmx racers... so if you ask me, your foundation is as solid as it gets... and now it comes down to percision and being in the kind of physical shape to literally pump the tracks the entire moto! You're definitely a Championship and podium contender! Don't let the mental side get to you... it's really not all that serious compared to the crazy world we're living... You got God, your family, and the right small circle to realize your dream'SUNREAL!

He has completed one series on a 450 the 2020 Outdoors. 2020 sx, 2021 mx, 2021 sx all out with injury, and he choked his 2nd 250 chip by wrecking. I recommend going and looking at how many seasons he hasnt completed it's like 60% incomplete. I like AC as a person too lol just being real.

[@Homemcardoso]

oh.. i´m sad for this.., i was still hoping to see sexton ride like JS7.. if james thinks he can. I miss the show.. the rush, and the style we had when james was around. So diferent these day, no cohones in motocross. yep, james was the man.

[@somerandomdude19]

I think a lot of that excitement faded away due to supercross tracks becoming very one lined as well. I can't remember the last time I saw a track where riders could double-double or full send the quad like in the late 2000's - early 2010's

[@fasterthanyou7605]

No cohones in motocross? Have you ever watched Ferrandis? The current champ? He rides the wheels off that bike and sends the biggest shit ever

[@fasterthanyou7605]

For example that quad uphill last year that not one guy hit then literally two laps to go to take the lead he hits it 160 feet no practice middle of a moto just sends that shit even the broadcasters were shocked

[@somerandomdude19]

@@fasterthanyou7605 that was definitely one of those rare crazy moments. I just wish they happened more in supercross. But I also understand what Sexton is saying about 450's having crazy power compared to back then so it makes sense that everyone is hitting quads. I just wish there was some way to separate the field with the track builds

[@fasterthanyou7605]

@@somerandomdude19 totally agree the problem is that those 250’s are tapped out trying to stay up in the tracks, we had so many guys get hurt casing jumps last season on the 250’s the key is going to be fluidity, Ferrandis and roczen ride a gear higher and ride the track incredibly smooth yet also on the edge, if they can both translate that to Supercross you’ll see some badass racing this season

[@gabrielgrigonis9840]

After seeing Chase on the last few interviews, I think he needs to talk to Deegan Sr. I think Chase biggest problem is Chase. Hope he get it together, would love to see him make a run for a championship.

What kind of equipment are you using for the podcast?

I mean no disrespect to anyone...but in this reponse, Chase seems so humble, respectful, and thankful for the chance to work with James. Class act. I listened to Stewart's podcast yesterday, and maybe I took it wrong, but it seemed like he was kind of joking on the kid. It rubbed me the wrong way a bit, especially after hearing this side of it. I'm sure Stewart doesn't give a crap about how he comes off, and who can blame him. Just an observation. Love the podcast, thanks for posting.

natural talent can not be taught, thats what makes it natural. Also when you have natural talent and you do stuff second nature you dont know how or why you do it you just do it without thinking. I was a very good top tier skier at most mountains (not so top tier at pro events) early on i would get people asking me how to do all types flips and i would think your pretty good at skiing sure. they all ended up on their heads( I stopped telling people how to do them) Once your upside down 20 30 feet off the ground everything goes out the window and you need that natural talent to take over ( at least back then before foam pitts)

[@spainobmxer69]

Also just sheer balls when you’re upside down, even the best athletes shit themselves upside down if they aren’t used to it. As a teen I rode with better riders but only I could flip, as they just had a mental block of being upside down

[@thebordenasylum7726]

I kind of hate how a lot of these younger generation riders keep making jabs at the older gen guys like James or Ricky- saying "yeah, we're jumping stuff, or going faster and doing this different than what they were doing..." like, no..no you're not. If anything, I wish we could get a Stew or RC at their peak on their 2006 bikes and set-ups and match them against the dudes today. They could get a nice wake up call on how gnarly those dudes actually were. There's an old video from the 2007 season at Glen Helen where RV hits a 150ft jump doing like 70mph on a 250- someone filmed it from the side of the track and it's insane. Could the guys do it today? Sure. Would they? I don't see anyone risking something like that in the 250 class today.

[@jhamelin119]

I would imagine lap times on outdoor tracks havnt changed that much (depending on how deep they till it). Im sure james and rickys 2006, 2007, 2008 lap times would rival todays top guys. In fact the mid 2000's guys seemed to take more risks.

[@motoguy7281]

Please explain how everything is alot different now and when James was on Kawi, Suzuki, and Yamaha 450's. Chase did not do a good job explaining his side. I feel that Chase is a Kevin Windham style of rider and James is James Bubba Stewart and wanted Chase to hang it out loose more and they did not mesh.

[@Perryjr19]

Chase definitely has hard feelings with James. He definitely stayed professional.

[@Rapidlaser]

Yeah they got a lot in common, both fast but both always falling off when out in the lead.

[@thekiid3]

"I kinda do stuff my own way".. "I'm not hard to teach but also been listening to the same person my whole life" - and because Sexton says it on this podcast everyone just runs with it that Stewart is not a good coach???? Lmfao 😂😂

[@RubbishFPS]

No, Im sure hes a great coach for certain people or styles. But the point is someone whos so fast naturally without the most perfect fundamentals isnt going to be the best to teach proper fundamentals is all. Im sure if your goal is to just send it then James is your man. Not everyone makes a good teacher even though they are a top professional in their field.

[@j43y]

Why learning to coach is a whole separate skill and not just work with me because I was good.

[@airkid1298]

Never will be another js7. We’ve had plenty of McGrath’s/Reeds and Rvs/Rcs. Stewart reminded me of tp199 or magoo those 2 gave it everything they had every second on the track and didn’t give a damn about crashing. Keep the records we hardly remember those but I bet u can name something u saw James do that made u sit and think how it was possible, sad to say motocross in the USA has been dying since stew quit racing. The wheelie boys get more love than pro racers now.

[@RubbishFPS]

Lucky enough to have seen JS7, RC4, CR22 and TP199 in person at Unadilla. Time, age and nostalgia cloud my mind but im pretty sure RC4 and JS7 were far more exciting to watch than the current races. Stewart on a 125 was savage poetry in motion. I dont think those two will ever be duplicated.

It's funny to watch this video, recognize the link between Sexton and Stewart and then look at how many times Sexton has tossed a perfect race because of a crash. How many times did we watch Stewart do the exact same thing? Slow it down and win. Consistency is the key. If Stewart had toned it back 2% he'd have been a much, much more successful rider.

Stewart's style changed over the years too..I always felt to his demise for mx at least..look at years he was on kawi's he rode more leaned back and still neutral..he went to yami's he was neutral which I think why his sx ability drastically improved for.his speed plus suited Yamaha setup...but once he came.back and went.to.Suzuki he was too forward-central and basically rode that front end ..and at his speed for outdoors he was struggling suspension setup..nothing they could would work..I think it was because he was too far forward..and he was twitchy..and lost his comfort.

That’s why trainers are trainers and athletes are athletes trainers can do amazing things but are too knowledgeable and this holds them back due to the battles of logic and reason taking place in a professional arena for example risk vs reward. An intelligent person will hard pass on high risk high reward situations out of pure logic and reason where an athlete will negate most of the time these factors and do what is necessary to inch out the edge even at the expense of their long term quality of life. 🤷🏻‍♂️

Supercross it's James as far as speed goes and second all time in wins, but he only has 2 titles and raced more years than ricky and he has 5, would be 6 if he didn't miss 04 with a knee injury. Ricky also knew how to come back and step it up to be able to be on par and push james into going faster than he was planning.. it's caused James to crash multiple times. As far as wins (150) and titles (15) I'd go with RC... when it comes to raw speed and ability in supercross, it's James all day long. But that style doesn't make for a lot of titles unfortunately.

@@yamahakid450f imo, when referencing the best to ever do it in any sport, championships and rings and records don't mean everything. In football, Emmitt Smith is the all time leading rusher... and not even on the radar as being the best rb. Bo Jackson never won anything...and is widely considered one of the best ever. Same idea... im talking about ability... and willingness to hang it out. RC is RC... no one can hate on that dude.... but championships aside... imo, js7 is the baddest to ever do it. And even RC will tell ya js7 is the fastest to ever do it, hands down.

@@yamahakid450f Difference between the fastest ever and the best ever. The best comes with results. RC is the GOAT. JS is the most talented to ever ride.

I think we're going to see Chase in the title fight this SX season.

[@mateonicholls7875]

Ferrandis, Tomac, Roczen, Cianciarulo and Barcia. Sexton is a 5th place rider. He might win a few races but he is no were near to the top guys. Chase is pure hype... He won his 250 titles because he had no competition. If Forkner would of stayed in 2 wheels Sexton wouldn't have any 250 titles. He won the easy coast while Ferrandis and Cianciarulo were battling and destroying the other coast. Sexton is slow if you compere him to the guys I mentioned. Ferrandis is just way to good for the USA. He wins this years supercross and maybe he wins motocross again.

@@mateonicholls7875 i’m not sure about AC and Barcia. Great riders, don’t get me wrong, but like you said about Chase they might podium or win a race or two, but I don’t think they will be in the title hunt for long. Also, not to mention you completely glossed over Webb, the current SX champ, and Marvin who skipped this past outdoors for a supercross only contract. Idk its such a deep field in the 450 class and with some of the too riders switching teams, Tomac, Anderson, Plessinger, and the new factory KTM bike for that whole team. Who knows how they will all do with new bikes. Its a tough toss up if you ask me🤷🏼‍♂️

[@tommyrichards8449]

@@mateonicholls7875 I get that, I thought he was all hype too, but he looks good on a 450. Not sure Ferrandis has what it takes to pull of a supercross title. Hes an outdoor guy.

[@mateonicholls7875]

@@adam_allday9470 How did I forget about Cooper Webb... So Sexton is way further than I thought. He is never winning Webb in supercross and I think he might win next year again. Damn so my predictions for 2022.. Webb SX champ. Ferrandis MX champ. Yeah, Im a Ferrandis fan his the best. Chase sucks, Tomac is an animal my fav USA rider. Roczen is a way to good but he always complains about something. Anderson is way to inmature and Barcia is just fun man... He is so cool to watch. Cianciarulo is so fckng fast he is always eating some dirt. because we all know Cianciarulo is the fastest of all. For real if AC had his bike on 2 wheels for both seasons he could win both. But we all know what happens to humpty dumpty.. he will always have a great fall.

[@adam_allday9470]

@@mateonicholls7875 this season might be different for AC though. he got the surgery on his arm that had the nerve damage, so who knows how much of a difference it will make with him. its so tough to make a choice because literally everyone that has been mentioned here has at least a 250SX title and some with a 450SX title as well. I think the top 10 (maybe a few more) are all capable of winning races this year. it'll be interesting to see how the guys who switched bikes will perform though. that could play in favor of some of the guys that are running the same teams/bikes. I really wanna see Webb finally get his back to back 450SX titles. all I know is, its going to be a crazy season if everyone stays healthy

Should of stayed with him. Been going down hill ever since. He better win won before Jett gets there.

I know what you mean, mcadoo gives me the same vibe since he signed with pro circuit

JS7 was by far the most talented rider ever ! But not GP Fast! Jett is Probably the only Rider that is Gp fast rider right now !

why do you guys AVOID talking about James CRASHING a lot. Maybe him teaching a class on Crashing is up his alley .
