MOTO TIP OF THE WEEK // NEWEST RIDING TECHNIQUE FAD 

MOTO TIP: The most popular new riding technique in the motocross world right now is to keep your feet on the pegs all the way through the corners. This doesn’t mean that you stand the whole time; it simply means that you leave both feet on the pegs all the way through the turn. Even in Supercross, top Pros are able to keep both feet on the pegs, especially to stay balanced coming out of a turn into a whoop section.

QUOTE OF THE WEEK //HUNTER LAWRENCE ON MAINTAINING HIS HEALTH WITH ALL THE TRAVEL

It is very difficult. After the main event, I always get a runny nose for some reason. I don’t know why, at first you think “oh no, I am getting sick.” But that is why diet and nutrition are so important.

TESTED // 2023 HUSKY FC450 ROCKSTAR EDITION

MXA MINI TEST: BLUR B-60 MAGNETIC GOGGLES

The new B-60 goggle comes with a hard-shell goggle case, mirrored lens, magnetic lens system and an outrigger lens lock. Triple-layer foam is used to boost comfort and keep sweat out of your eyes.

VERDICT: The B-60 has one of the best lens-changing systems we’ve seen. The lens snaps in and out easily and doesn’t pop out by accident, thanks to outrigger locks on both sides. Plus, there are plenty of foam vents on the frame to help reduce sweat splash on the inner lens.

DIGITS: $99.99—www.bluroptics.com.
