    Info on Knee Braces

    The Asterisk/CTi's have a hinge that follows the arc of your knee. Think of it as a "compound" hinge that bends and slides back at the same time. It causes less binding in your knee joint. Asterisk developed the compound hinge and incorporated it into the CTi product line (they used to be a...

    Info on Knee Braces

    Not true on the Asterisk & CTi as they have a stop built into them to prevent full extension. You can still break your leg if you wear braces but I guess that's better than torn ligaments.

    Info on Knee Braces

    EVS is a cheaper product with a bad hinge design...CTi and Asterisk have a superior hinge and a better product. Search Innovation Sports for the CTi braces. There are several models of the CTi if you can find it.

    Info on Knee Braces

    Get a prescription for CTi's. I have the Astrisk braces. They are bulky and get hung up on my frame and they slide down my leg after a while causing me to have to constantly pull them up. I guess they do the job, but the CTi's fit a little closer to your leg and you can get a knee cup for them...

    Do you think this guy should race pro? (video)

    If the guy is "that good" he should be able to convince USAC to move him up after 1-2 National races. I don't agree with people going straight to pro but I guess it happens if you hold another "bicycle" pro license. If he has a point to prove then he should have no problem smoking experts for a...

    Dirt Club Summer Series Race Calendar

    I just wanted to make sure your series is still going on July 25-26. I'm interrested in camping out there and don't know the details on that. I have a 26' RV and I would like to camp at the event. Do I need to get there early to get a spot, or can I get there on Friday before the event? I'm also...

    Lets discuss Dual

    Totally aware of that. I think the idea needs to be re-hashed. It was a successful formula in the perfect location...EC and TLD need to do it again.

    Lets discuss Dual

    Does the sport need to grow (in the U.S) from the ground up or is it established? I think the sport needs a "re-birth" in the U.S. There is no money to produce these "made for TV" events unless RedBull or Monster gets involved. They will not get involved if you can barely fill a Pro mens...

    Lets discuss Dual

    DS/4X in the off season would keep gravity in the media year-round which would make manufacturers happier I would think. Same reason SX/MX has opposite seasons. Also, NO MORE FLAT TRACK COMPARISONS!!!

    Lets discuss Dual

    That's cool. I was just giving you a hard time :twitch: Have you ever ridden a dual slalom course (a good one)? I think you might have a better understanding if you have. DS is one of the harder things to do when you are first starting out. I remember trying it for the first time in Irvine...

    Lets discuss Dual

    Is there anyone I can get in contact with to help out? As far as 4x...EC nailed it with the comment about $$$ and US racing. Four guys with shovels cannot get a 4x course built and tested in the time they are given. UCI (as said before) has a formula, and a budget, that works thats why UCI...

    Lets discuss Dual

    Well...there's the proof from Stik! When do we see "a good 4x at night with lights music and beer, is very enjoyable to watch."??? Seriously though, it would be nice to have a permenant track that was on some donated land. Sell it like they sell skate parks. I can dream, right?

    California Gravity Calendar

    What is SGDC? Is that in Los Olivos and is it open on all weekends for DS (just to practice)?

    Lets discuss Dual

    Right on. That makes sense. The tracks he was designing were HUGE and I don't think they were suited for anyone less than a pro (male). The first Sea Otter 4x was another one he did...I remember everyone but Cedric casing that 40' double on their first try. Those were the few good american 4x...
