SCARIEST FIRST LAP! Thunder Valley National *450 Moto 1*

[@Rubbinz24]

Appreciate you wiping that shit down for all us dreamers here pretending we're actually riding like this man. You ripping as always Walk and I love that you still provide us with some amazing GoPro clips. 🙏 I really wish they'd let you all use them, putting them wherever the fuck you want!! It's so dumb. Anyway...*Rant over* Keep up the great riding my man. 🤜 We're Always rooting for you and those other privateers up here in 🇨🇦too. You guys are like the glue that keeps this amaca shit going, so keep it up! 🇺🇸🇨🇦🤜

[@Shogun35FTW]

For sure

[@DutchGamers]

couldn't have said it better man 💯

[@knaushouse151]

they’re not allowed go pros?

[@AK_Performance]

I believe the no gopro thing has more to do with copyright guidelines. There's a process to able to run one. Correct me if I'm wrong, not all the riders/teams are allowed to even apply for that process.

[@markd2858]

Great effort JW! Keep up the good work.

[@Boshby97]

Fuckin' Gnarly dude.

[@JvincentR]

Anyone that can qualify for a national is a great rider! Congratulations

[@unstoppableplayz6948]

Facts.

[@joshcandela13]

We're at sunset ridge this weekend with full dreams

[@Tom-pq3kn]

Ben Clark would disagree

[@straighttimestirrups]

The average guy watching this couldn’t keep up with a local B class champ at their home track. When you think about how skilled, fast and in shape J-Walk is in comparison to yourself is it makes you wonder just how there can be people still faster than him!

[@JvincentR]

@@straighttimestirrups I never qualified for a pro national and couldn’t be close but people talk shit about the guy in a national that finishes in last. I would like to see any local guy or keyboard racer try and go beat that guy. Like you said. Most can’t beat a B class rider let alone a pro sport or A class rider. Most kids that make it Loretta’s can beat most adults.

[@Heckman_Productions]

Love this footage, gives a glimpse into what its like to be a pro. What would you say can get more sketchy, pulling a tear-off or wiping off the camera? lol

[@robearbouche66]

J walk and Matty b !!!! Let’s goooo!!!!! This is sick bro!!!!!!

[@CptnYarface]

This is the only way I will ever see a pro moto-x track from this vantage point lol I appreciate what you do Jeff Walker and it's great to see you out there!

[@skeeb5317]

dude u r killing it. and casually wiping the camera off. absolute legend.

[@LilLefty27]

Just went to Thunder Valley today for open practice ride and they kept the full pro layout and jump peaks. Holy hell you boys make it look EASY!

[@pop4783]

can you ride with a camera now? thought you weren't allowed to do that, wish more pros did it

[@gregorythegreat7332]

How can anyone be a hater here. Just to line up with the best riders in the world is a dream I've held all my life and he is living it. Us mere mortals could never even ride at this guy's level.

[@JDycus816]

I always watch for you on the screen! Glad to see you making some good laps

[@MinimalcomplaintsTv]

Shout out MBG Enterprises 1:03

[@ohiomoto]

You got the best shot of Jet's pass on Cooper. That was cool!

[@benvarley2927]

What place did you get?

[@Frankie-ni2oj]

Cleaning the camera lens during a national is badass! 👍👍

[@DADSGETNDOWN]

Also a drawback.

[@matthewtoes6433]

That's why the suspension has to be set up correctly for YOU THE Bike needs to be stable predicable if it was me I'd seek training from the moto academy or Ryan Hugh's training programs Ryno will change everything you know about riding Fast

[@28Phoenix]

Brutal Track. Dude on the green bike looked like he was trying to die doing that risky downhill triple midtrack on race day. Masterpool maybe idk... I was sitting at the bottom corner watching the leaders every time by so I should know who it was but I don't. You could probably get ALOT faster if you weren't getting all the drag from those massive balls swinging ...also triple up in the whoop section after the finish line. It was working well for the guys who did it. I'll come say hi next year. Cheer you on.

[@Molly-hk2rk]

This Is Amazing Footage, feels like it's been years since we've had decent race poverty footy

[@natel7382]

Ty for getting some footage of top chicks boots. Ty. Lol😊

[@canyoumimic]

that roost! the guys up front got it easy! sick video as always!

[@chrisheiney8469]

Growing up racing locals at Thunder Valley 20 years ago, that exact same thing happened to me at that first double and got landed on.

[@griff1493]

Something about that right hander inside half way around claiming a fair few people😅

[@shaehatfield1899]

Dude, going for tear offs and keeping the camera lens clean while fighting for your life is sick bro!

[@wannaseethevid]

I would totally mess up and run into that line of 30 second card babes. um accidently of course.

[@diogoinacio1725]

Beeen past all The time and have a good GASGAS Go sleep bro😂😂😂😂

[@vaughanhodgson]

When the blue flags came out I bet u had no idea it was gonna be hunter first

[@vakarisdegutis4326]

Hey you are a great rider but why dont you use hand guards?

[@G10yamaha]

Where is the guy who cheers on Jeff every day? 😂

[@biro0]

What does the blue Flag mean??

[@Randy_Cox]

Great stuff dude. Your doing a good job in the middle of chaos. Track looked fun and not near as rough and bumpy as I have seen some of the rounds get. Glad you made it into the main so cool that we get to see footage like this because no one else seems to care to make it, besides MattyB.

[@Woodrum317]

You racing highpoint

[@orka212911]

Looked like ol Marv about took ya out.. Not a big fan of that guy, met him a couple times. anywhoo.. good ride dude. Knarly track for sure.

[@JeffWalker84]

Might be talking about Ferrandis, but I don’t take it personally. These guys are trying their hardest to make up another valuable position on the last lap. I’m just trying my best to stay out of their way haha

[@TrevorAvrett]

Action cameras never do jumps justice: I’ve seen that blue ‘finals’ step up jump in person, and that thing is pretty big!!

[@dmadeitright]

that roost looks so painful

[@zachlehner4966]

WHAT GRIPS ARE THOSE

[@YZinger.244]

Race washougal !!!!!

[@Bobbyg296]

KZbin must pay pretty decent if you have the mindfulness to be wiping the GoPro mid moto. Always love your videos stay healthy and stay ripping!

[@dustinsmith9822]

Jeff, great race, man! While we appreciate being able to see and know you want the content, you should not be wiping the camera so much!!! Focus on you and your race, big dog, we can see you on TV! It's important that you focus on yourself during yourself and don't get distracted wondering if we can see, haha. Trust me, the real fans are looking and watching for you! 🤘

[@chrismarona8596]

Dude just completing the first lap of a pro national is a freaking ACHIEVEMENT. That is absolutely wild

[@Chuck0820-t2l]

You said this is the best you have ever felt coming into a season like 5 videos ago. You also said its the fastest youve felt. Now youre saying youre recovering from injury and dont have the intensity.. “deepest field” like all these excuses bro 😂. Field was deeper in 22 and you were getting top 20’s

[@jeffhicks1008]

I didn't know they sang our the national anthem in the communist country of California

[@motograndpajoe9357]

Mad props to you JWalk ! We are ALWAYS cheering for you ! Love to watch you ride and have such a great time talking to you and Pops in the pits ! Best of luck on all the rest of the rounds !

[@819jt]

Mike Kiedrowski lost a championship because his hand got hit by roost.

[@chongorlz9716]

How much faster do you think you would be on a factory bike? Insane first lap!

[@juancarlospita3227]

¿Have you ever won a race ? No hate just asking ❤️. And if you did can you put the link to it…

[@DeanoLupi]

GasGas 450 (2022) best 450 I've ever ridden. So I bought one- thanks Jeff. Rockin it here in Michigan.

[@davidornelas5835]

Great ride. Yeah, that first near death wasn't fun. Really, really appreciate the pro move to wipe the camera lens each time. Routing for you Jeff!!

[@grahamdyas9523]

I think I speak for all of us Jeff when I say we appreciate all you’ve done for us as an awesome creator, but race day is race day man, focus on yourself and the ride at hand and don’t worry about wiping down that camera mid moto for us gettin dirty is a part of the game, we want you to stay locked in on race day, we never want you to sacrifice 2 seconds in a corner just to wipe our screen clean

[@johnkrukiel8502]

Love to see our local pro James Harrington make an appearance. Not only saw him in the moto but you lined up next to him on the gate too. For context as well, he OWNS the local A class at our local track. Hopefully you guys can duke it out some more when the series comes back east.

[@lifewithbreak4450]

Living the dream man. You rode great, & you're only going to improve during the year. Good luck my dude.

[@NCER999]

blows my mind the level you all ride at. I watch your footage and you're so fast, then to see the speed of the top 10 is another level.

[@yfngme6730]

That boy Jeff like that 😂😂💪🏼💪🏼cleaning the go pro for us mid race

[@weaverswalls4674]

bruh the cam clean mad props let alone riding with the wolfs! love it if only it were so easy! good riding new fan!

[@ryanlamb8118]

Big cajones, bro. Really fun to watch!! Thx.

[@bstefans99]

Another great ride!!! Hope to see you up at Southwick at the end of the month!! Keep up the awesome rides!!

[@trevorwright6828]

Dont beat yourself up too bad. You're out there racing against some of the best guys in the world! The fact that you are out there is incredible. And the fact you are just getting back from injury speaks even more to the caliber of rider you are! You are currently doing what most could only dream of!

[@Siuu888]

nice

[@darrellmabry699]

I think that's pretty damn good bud. That should really tell you alot

[@shaehatfield1899]

Track section with the big triple then two into the turn looks so fun

[@Realhighlife]

I wish the would do on board helmet cams for all the riders this is so dope adrenaline rush for sure

[@angrysweet8932]

What's the deal with only thumbs down !???

[@INSIDELINE65]

Thanks, most of us never made it to this level and most never will, any rider that makes main events is #1 in my book.

[@braedencottrill3029]

met you at high point yesterday! hope to see a high point video soon

[@MrKtm200exc]

0:22 good reminder to turn the quality up to 2K!

[@DBGROWS]

bro your killing it! out there wide open wiping a go pro alone is insane! mad respect bro and keep it up!

[@danielczyta...5218]

good stuuuuf

[@brianchristenson6055]

Great ride J Walker. Cool to see you and Matty B our there!)

[@jokerswildization]

You will get there, I'll be cheering for you every week 🎉

[@archer_2024]

its cool to see matty you and dayton all kinda in the same situation rn

[@NolanGriffithmx]

Let me just say, if you were fully locked in you wouldn’t be wiping that camera and worrying abt the tube. I hate to say it but u were the most locked when you were so focused on moto that you weren’t posting on youtube.

[@JeffWalker84]

If racing made me money, then I would happily put the camera aside. Sadly the camera is what makes me money

[@G10yamaha]

KZbin makes the money so he can ride at these expensive races! Appreciate the behind the scenes content and go pro footage of himself and all the other riders! To even qualify for one of these races is an achievement in its self! He’s an animal! Keep up the good work and content and keeping wiping that camera 📸 😂

[@DipherixHD]

Yup keep cleaning people out at Supercoops and your intensity will get there 🖕🏻 like we get it your bro you’re 20 times faster then everyone there. Take a different line instead of taking people out that are just trying to have fun.

[@JeffWalker84]

Genuinely did not touch anyone at supercoops. Crashed all by himself right in front of me and I happened to run into his bike. But ok man🤘🏼

[@TboneSTEAK111]

Maybe the dude shouldn't have crashed lmao

[@mike.ferrin762]

💪🏾

[@LPatterson3434]

[@amcmann925]

Great race Jeff, keep up the hard work.

[@darrynruzicka2883]

Why no commentary after the race?

[@Santiago_jacrispy]

Holy cow that roost is no joke hahaha

[@chrisbutler176]

Love the action, great video man !!

[@vwgtdturbo]

sell gasgas buy honda

[@Noah_Mejia127]

Love the videos man!

[@Captainknor]

I feel that start 😂😂

[@Chris-fg8om]

Amazing ride!!

[@D.race833]

Keep ripping Jeff

[@DaftPunx666]

👽✊🏻🔥

[@LocDog-my2uz]

If you're not finishing in the points, then why do you guys do this? It looks dangerous and not worthy of all the risk

[@dawsonvandecar1612]

So many reasons

[@TboneSTEAK111]

I mean there is a certain point where if your as fast as walker any normie track day is filled with riders that slow you down and you can't get better. You get better racing with these guys

[@crazychad2720]

No hand on chest for the anthem? Guess im old school idk.
