//
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.

I always forget that Jase is filming on the other side of the planet. He does an amazing job making it seem as if they're having a conversation from across a table, not across an ocean

[@jakeoakley]

I think alot of the time they are in the same room but ya some times they are not.

[@MatthewC137]

@@jakeoakley I think they are very rarely in the same room. Of course I could be wrong.

[@TheChapMX]

I did not know that, but I had picked up on the delay each time before he starts talking. That makes sense then. Interesting!

[@jordanxlongoria]

They are in the same room, he has a studio in cali 🤨

[@johnnybirdman]

@@jordanxlongoria thank you thought I was gonna have to tell 'em 😂

[@ItsTheRufus]

Fuck, this kid is so smart. Always been a fan. Chase and his family were parked right next to us one year at Loretta’s when he was still on 85’s. Definitely one of the better families in our sport. Hope he can get some wins next season.

[@fabreezo]

Chase’s talent scares me, and makes me scared for all the top riders this year. Including Cooper Webb who I’m a fan of. I believe Chase is gonna be a beast and is super precise. Last year he didn’t really get a chance to show himself being injured and what not. I hope I’m not right, I was never a fan but fan or not you cant deny he’s got serious potential

[@psychofunksoldier02]

I’m old but in good shape. Just started riding last year and focusing on technique, it’s a lot to process but really cool and interesting.

[@FoundationTraining]

Great to hear Chase discuss Foundation Training. We’ve worked with many Moto and Supercross athletes. The changes happen fast with disciplined practice. Thank you for recommending our work!

[@GYPSYTALES]

I’ve started doing the routines chase mentioned and I can feel the difference for sure!

[@cooganbeggs4942]

I couldn't“t believe it when Chase mentioned Foundation training! Ive been doing it now for a bit over a year and the first time i did it I was like holy crap this is the attack position on a dirt bike! It really is incredible for any sport but particularly Motocross 👍

[@derkbrock5996]

Chase is full of knowledge, I’m very impressed from this interview

[@tacoenvy]

Chase is awesome. He can 100% be a future 450 champion. I'm glad he's on here finally.

[@zeekdavis11]

After seeing him go toe to toe with Tomac. The kids the next “guy” unreal speed. He’s only getting faster too. the fields in trouble come 2023

[@eli9494]

You called it 🤟🏻

[@peopleschampgarage7869]

Well spoken and confident for 22.

[@dekancaine]

He’s gonna be a future champ I believe.

[@ataiken8406]

Just looked up foundation training and I like what I am reading, good stuff!

[@djp3819]

Where did you find the info mate? I had a look but couldn’t find anything.

[@ataiken8406]

@@djp3819 hey bud, here is a direct link to the website that i found. I believe it's the "original" if there is one. Enjoy, pretty cool stuff

[@djp3819]

@@ataiken8406 thanks mate much appreciated 👍🏻

[@derekbentley334]

Quads but have done some moto trials I found that help alot for rider placement being in the best line ready for the following obstacle

[@imtheonevanhalen1557]

Leading the race a few weeks ago, by a LOT.....he should open a school for "How to face-plant in an easy corner"....never seen anything like that, simply amazing!!!

[@gawdszn302]

hater

[@rodneypurbrick7899]

It's always a balance when developing personal technique. We see others do things that we want to do but sometimes it doesn't help us. Trying things to see if they work without fucking our own riding can be tough lessons. Always love learning new skills and techniques. Onya Jase.

[@joelballard4952]

Trying to improve is fun. I agree 100%. Even if it’s just baby steps gettingbetter

[@jordanemede]

Millsaps Pastrana Reynard Ryno off the top that been on that technique game for a minute. Gary Bailey taught me the attack position around 2003 and it certainly wasn't the first time he taught someone that way. People are focusing on it more now but it's been fundamental from the golden era of moto

[@mattseaton3521]

Surprised you put Pastrana in that group. Always found his style a little off / goofy but probably just because he's so tall.

[@jordanemede]

@@mattseaton3521 he does look a little goofy but Gary Bailey had his technique pretty sound. Elbows up, attack position,knees behind the foot pegs, head up. I agree tho sometimes he just looked lanky lol

[@chrisjacks2599]

That guy is a good guy!

[@ryanlorance6168]

Yessir 🤘🏻

[@derekbentley334]

Can u work the golf ball? Hook draw fade slice high low hit opposite. 214yd hole in 1

[@supershawn3]

Unrelated to this videos but holy F the comment you made about taking a break from jits and coming back better somehow is so true! I have always wondered why that happens. It’s gotta be a mental thing with getting slightly burnt out and coming back excited and confident. Also just might be a combat sports phenomenon because I don’t think Iv really experienced it at that level on a bike.

[@justinfritz3635]

I was stoned one day and thinking about this and this is the answer that popped into my brain. You know how you be going to the gym and then take a break for like 4 days and when you come back you feel way stronger. Muscles recover and come back stronger. The brain is a muscle, doing the same thing over and over requires a rest for your brain from that “workout”

[@schmittyshow8998]

its not just combat sports. Ive experienced this in other sports. My thought is when you take a break from a sport you give your brain and muscle memory the time to forget things a little which opens up an opportunity to reprogram new habits into your style. I think it works best when you take a break physically but mentally you are doing the correct repetitions in your mind. On and off the bike practice is of equal importance imo

[@shobo7545]

Gypsy shirt is sick jase

[@Kawiboy]

Sooo Rad 👊 👍..

[@chadnelson1777]

I like chase a lot, but technique isn’t the only thing that gets you wins. Gotta have the drive and speed to get there. I do hope he wins one before he retires

[@ropedb]

I guess my definition and chases definition are different. Flawless to me means keeping it on two wheels. If he ever learns how to do that he might get a championship.

[@dhbldr]

A small improvement in his race craft and everyone had better look out !!!

[@sml2238]

Jase, I think as Chase pointed out here, it's not the best idea to be thinking about specific positions that you MUST be in on the bike while on the track. Maybe a little bit if you're just drilling one particular thing doing turns or a single section or whatever, but thoughts like that while on the track can be dangerous as you could end up being far too rigid out there and end up screwing up your balance and crash or what not. I think doing some excersizes and drills both on and off the bike would be good, but when you're actually on the track your thoughts should be more high level like line choice, remaining fluid, using your legs/core, etc. You need to be only conciously focused on minimal things and allow yourself to remain completely focused amd instinctual, riding off of feel. trying too think your way around the track is going to end up much worse than someone who drills good habits to be natural and is riding off instinct only focusing on some core high level things. Reaction times are better that way, balance is better that way and your technique ends up being better that way as well because you've done the training to know how to ride but you're letting your instincts control your body movements based on what you're feeling in the moment.

[@MichiganTrailRider]

Attack position !

[@Hugo-py2ce]

The technique you learned from james stewart chasey boy?

[@lovelygelvlog]

Watching here and thank you #lovelygelvlog

[@reese3407]

He needs to get in the technique of not crashing😮

[@derekbentley334]

Waggle waggle load up stay down drive thru the ball and rotate lol

[@kadeem070]

Flawless..but he couldn’t keep it on 2 wheels this year lol

[@andy347495]

It's new? It's the new way people ride? That's part of the seven fundamentals of riding a motocross bike. I learned that 10 years ago in a motocross school.

[@TheShift1313]

Yup. Ride on the balls of your feet. Knees back. Chest forward. People like Aj really drill that but it isnt new. Also point your toes in a bit to help grip the bike.

[@apptouchtechnologies3722]

Chase turn your aggression clicker down one click. Eliminate crashes and you’ll win. Even though I want Eli to win another title if Chase reigns in a notch and stays smooth, he’ll win more titles than RD/RV.

[@amdesigns9162]

I cannot stand reading comments like this. What the fuck have you accomplished to justify telling an elite racer what to change in order to win?

[@apptouchtechnologies3722]

@@amdesigns9162 logic. Try it.

[@jacemarincic5496]

Ferrandis and tomac need to turn it down a notch too. Way too aggressive. They’d have more titles

[@wfodavid]

Style or no style you're only as good as your last race. Brutal sport and I respect these guys for what they do but RC and JBS didnt have the greatest style but they got it done. Maybe they did have the style....

[@jordanemede]

JBS??

[@jordanemede]

I certainly hope you don't mean Stewart lol literally the sickest most influential style to ever grace the world with his presence.

[@SKIDSnSTUFF]

Jeezuz. Its got fuck all to do with where your knees are, that is just a by-product. It's about taking the forces of the bike and body position and putting it down through your feet to create balance, stability and traction. He even alludes to this talking about that foundation thing.

[@GYPSYTALES]

So put your knees anywhere you want?

[@FoundationTraining]

@@GYPSYTALES more important to control body weight through hips and the muscles that surround them. The feet transfer forces to hips as long as the knees arent trying to hold them themselves. Practice makes perfect.

[@hughglass9618]

You can have all the technique in the world, but you need the speed to match. I think some of these riders are too concerned with technique.

[@anthonymacella4677]

Not a new technique. My friend taught me that coming out of MTF over a decade ago. Especially under braking, if your knees are forward you need to use a lot more muscular effort and/or you can’t brake as hard. Also, bumps can buck you easier.

[@philipsmith6152]

Chase wasn't the pioneer of that technique...Ryno was the pioneer !!

[@mav459]

Technique? He crashes more than anyone I know. RC might be a better candidate.

[@mav459]

RJ Hampshire would give him a run for his money.

[@jjpods5165]

Flawless except for the crashes and late moto fails lol?

[@OneSon744]

The Christian and the Potty Mouth.

[@thebordenasylum7726]

Can we stop with the hyping and talking about Chase's talent and skill on a bike like he's the next coming of something? He's got 7 total career wins- across SX and MX in the 250 and 450 class heading into his 5th year as a pro. He's a great rider with the potential to accomplish great things, but the fact is- 7 wins over 5 years isn't that impressive on paper.

[@mikbusby221]

I couldnt agree more with this comment! I'm a exracer and huge fan of the sport and hearing all this hype over his style like hes somekinda of 94 clone... well it hasn't worked out for the 94 very well now has it.. jmo not hating on the kids hes sick fast just not a fan of him

[@simondow7996]

Chase is actually one smart dude bruvv extremely smart 🤌🏽
