@kittylitter5000 I love how you bring the Greatest Of All Time into this conversation. RC is arguably the greatest rider of all time. I never said that a bigger guy like Windham was a "better" rider. I personally think guys with a bigger build have more control and stability on the bike.
@zachzepplen He was in title contention throughout the season, but faded to about 20 points back in 2nd place when he went down with an injury. Didn't race the last few races. Obviously he dropped in the standings after that.
Is it just me, or does Villopoto look really small on the 450. I think that that is the biggest problem for a lot of guys in the SX class. They can't stay up when they get out of control. I think that that's the reason that you hardly ever see a guy like Kevin Windham on the ground. He's able to put his feet down because he's such a tall guy. Villopoto on the other hand doesn't look to be in control as much, and I feel that is why you see him crash a lot more. He's still a good rider.
i agree with monsterDGAF but i think being a bit smaller help you and is easier for you to stand up. cause im like 6 foot and standing up is a pain but also i find i have more control when sitting down.
@MonsterDGAF Villopoto has always ridden a little bit ``on the edge`` if you will I guess when we say that hes out of control thats his comfort zone, in a way. it just the way he rides.
