I just watched something called enduro cross and I’m not sure I liked it. I just didn’t look exciting enough for me. Did anyone else watch and did you like it?

Endurocross isn't new, its been around for about 5-6 years and its getting pretty big. And it is pretty exciting to watch if you ride a bike, or enduro. You have to ride bikes to really appreciate endurocross and know how technical and demanding the course is. Its not flashy like motocross, but its definatly more physically demanding and punishes the body mentally and physically. I just don't think it will ever replace outdoor MX or SX.

I didn’t think it was new and I have ridden bikes much longer then atv’s. I just live in a world with basic cable and I don’t get all the sports stations that carry any kind of racing.lol
So I have never seen it before, I agree with the fact that it’s very technical and it looks like it’s very hard to do. maybe it was the fact that there was a commercial every 5 minuets and it was hard to get into it.
I was just wondering what everyone else thought about it.

We have a touch of it in WORCS the last couple years .
At Wash. state its called X-cross and its very cool !
ALL classes had to endure a portion of it , but the Xcross competition had its own and the Pros ran alot of it on the Sunday main .

logs, rocks ...cars....good stuff !:macho

On a resent bike mx on line radio show they said that the sx was out for xgames in 2011 and that they were going to have endurocross instead. Someone please push for the pro quads to be in this.

It is hard enough to ride EX on a bike, let alone a quad. That would be brutal on a quad!

Been done before and I believe the worcs pros have some time on these types of stuff. I guess it depends on how it is laid out if a quad could get around it or not. It would be cool but also ugly if it goes bad. The above race was shown on a lucus oil on the edge speed tv show. Some guys went with mx setups and looked stupid out there. Tim hauled with some huge like 22" rear tires.
Also see.
