Joel Hetrick switches to Yamaha for 2021

[@ononewheel7]

Only company making a quad i think its a right choice! He can ride anything and be super fast so its really about support! Wishing the 88 the best of luck in 2021!

[@Ripitupfilms]

Thank You!

[@andrewignatovets2723]

I am pumped for Joel, He is probably the fastest rider in atv mx history, and I hope this switch to yamaha makes him even faster. I wish a good season for him.

[@Kermit46]

I would say 2008 -2010 Wienen was the fastest or at least the same.

[@stevemillerjr.6229]

Glad to see it. We shouldn’t be supporting a company that has dropped sport quads. Racers have catered to Honda for YEARS but it’s always been a one way relationship. Good for you man!

[@dyrberg1690]

I think its super cool that you have switched, wishing you the best luck og 2021.

[@gioi8892]

I switched my 2018 yfz450r and went to a can am 450xmx best move I made so far. But good luck on upcoming season 2021 . Yamaha was so unreliable for me... Hopefully one day again the sport quad racing will be like it was in the past.. Awsome sport

[@neatlybeatnmeat5658]

Im a Honda fan through and through i just wish they would love us ATV guys like we love them....... RIP TRX 450ER but best of luck out there get that championship!

[@jaredmorse2352]

Deffinetly a weird look now but he’s still rippin on that thing so more power to him 💪🏻 sick video

[@Ripitupfilms]

Thank You!

[@DaltonHeavelow44]

I'm glad to see Hetrick on a new quad for the 2021 season. I'm also excited to see how this plays out for phoenix racing.

[@nelsonchapple3943]

I’ve heard it going to “Phoenix racing Motorsports”

[@Elidogz]

I think was a good switch to the yamaha first time i ever saw you race was back around 2006 at lorettas . I said look at this lil kid go hes gonna make it to the pros & so you did & have been crushing it , congrats joel in your raceing & family life . Take care friend 🙏🏼

[@dpt560]

I live a mile down the road from Facility 15 and whenever I hear quads rippin i always know Nick invited you down and thats its you i hear tearing shit up. Yamaha is gonna be good to you

Gotta stay competitive and having equipment from 2014 at the newest can’t make it easy, I’m happy to see you still kept a lot of red on it, the trx will always be one of my schoolgirl crushes though

[@nickrought3078]

Congratulations on the switch! Looking forward to seeing you out there next year!

[@tgarrett1984]

Love the switch! Best of luck with off-season training and can't wait to see the results next year.

[@ononewheel7]

He’s fast as hell doesn’t mater what he rides i think this was the right move and I’m sure the support behind it is way better vs honda! Mayb more of this will get some of these other manufacturers to put something new out there!

[@brianburbank5175]

You look super happy with the change. Congrats! Looking forward to an exciting next season.

[@HisPeopleRestored]

Badass video!! Track looks super fun as well! NJ is where all my family is. Looks like you’re already getting comfy on the new Yami. Sounds like those wins will be coming a lot easier now, good luck next year🤘🏻

[@kylerrykhus7098]

Joel you look amazing on it glad you got the yami you’ll have that number one plate back next season

[@Spaceshuttlegunner]

Joel it’s great to see where you are at in your career! I remember working on your bike when you were on your CR80. If you see this tell your mom and dad Hello!

[@smokemboe1876]

Love the switch! Good luck on it!

[@bjparsons2225]

So pumped that Joel is finally on a yamadawg rip it up Joel good luck buddy !

[@Themanu2222ful]

I love these videos... awesome images and no music just the pure sound of the machine. perfect! I have a TRX but It is true, Honda is doing pretty much nothing for the sport Quads. Perhaps is the time for a change.

[@Ripitupfilms]

Thank You!

[@JVltr450]

Soooooo sick!! Already looks like he’s been riding yamaha for years. Sick vid gloop

[@ononewheel7]

He does look good on it right 😁

[@Ripitupfilms]

Thanks man, and thank you for all your support!

[@jamesfrize9149]

Worth a change everyone now and then. good luck with the new quad

[@Sloppyjogaming]

I love it!! Can’t wait to to see rip that Yamaha at the nationals. It’s gonna be weird seeing you racing a Yamaha but I could get use to it

[@adamstevens5422]

Have a lucky season champion its good change 👌🏾👌🏾

[@robertoamaral7466]

Excited to watch you rip on your new ride next season

[@bensainzjr6386]

Possibly one of the biggest surprises of the year, was very odd seeing a way different look but now I’m pretty stoked about the new change, good luck hombre

[@Neville852]

You were 4 seconds faster a lap cant imagine now. Your corner speed is definitely faster! Ready to see you kill it this year dude you got this! 🤟🏻☝🏻

[@austinlong3143]

Dude now that's a sickk build I never though I'd see the day Hetrick went to Yamaha but he looks good on it and I can't wait to see him out there ripping it up at daytona

[@ononewheel7]

He looks killer on it for sure! But these guys all can ride anything it comes down to support and this is proof! Hopefully this will push other company’s to build again!

[@austinlong3143]

[@ExRider43]

This is great and I love the color, definately something we have not seen before, good luck guys!

[@trumanweimer506]

Different to see you on a raptor been watching you for so long ripping that Honda but you look good on the bike keep on doing what you do you inspire a lot of people

[@tylerfrisch3283]

It’s crazy that he switched I would of never expected it. But I’m excited to see what the future brings on the yzf.

[@charliegarza2106]

Great move!! Can’t wait to see what’s in store for 2021 season, it will be interesting to see how the bike performs on race days

[@chadriddle3517]

Honda fan always , but Yamaha 2nd but I’m glad you switched to support them because they still make sport quad ! You will be better off for 2021! #88

[@jonnyquad12]

You look happy about the switch, that says it all. Good luck in 2021 Joel

[@cousintrey0332]

Ridin like a boss as always! No matter the brand. Can’t wait to catch the SOB race again next year!

[@chosengamers5565]

We hope it can hold up and not have mechanical problems like your old one did I love to see you ride

[@bmatt413]

You’re going to love it man! Congratulations

Great edit btw 🤘🤘🤘

[@Ripitupfilms]

Thank You!

[@shaunrider5921]

Can’t blame him for the switch. Although I prefer hondas, with the new technology ect Yamaha are just overtaking. Plus, they will continue keeping sport quads a business if more pro riders choose them.

[@honda70kd]

Honda pull factory support for EVERYTHING INCLUDING DIRT BIKES

[@shaunrider5921]

[@Cummins2519]

I've been n YFZ's my entire life, it's all i've owned for quads. It's a great platform and i'm glad to see you with a company who still invests time and money into sport quads. It only makes sense to be riding the latest and greatest, and you weren't getting that on an outdated platform (Honda). Best of luck next season, keeping killing it.

[@oscarpages3751]

Super stocked about this decision... That red looks hella good on that YFZ. Best of luck next seson!!

[@finks_journey6564]

He’s made a living jumping on whatever brand and killing it 💪🏻😎

Looks so comfortable on it already. I am a local by Hawkins pit but sadly cannot ride there anymore and I just got a yfz to 😭 hopefully that could change

Welcome to NJ where all pits are rough like that 24/7. So sick to finally see you on a Yamaha. But man you caused havoc on the FB pages with people posting trx450s for sale or trade for a Yamaha lol. Huge influence on the sport for sure

[@dylanmcclellan2348]

Best thing you could have done, Yamahas are definitely one of the best handling machines and and best turning machines out there too, plus supports the sport by giving the only company still in it even more initiative to keep building and improving. I see lots of improvement for you this off-season and you’ll dominate in 2021!
