Race Report from Jordan Lopez: 

“As I look back on another Sea Otter, I have to say that it was one of the best in a long time. With a dry DH and Super D course, the racing was fast and fun.

- In the Super D, I placed 9th of 45 with a horrible start - another rider grabbed my bike and started to ride off with it, I yelled at him to remind him the it was not his, he realized this and cast my bike aside.”

- In the Downhill, I placed 37th of 51 with two crashes in the lower section. This placing was a frustrating finish because I felt as though I had my lines dialed and I had one of the top split times at the bottom of the “log drop” (mid way point of the race).”

    Sea otter has 6.6 written all over it, not a big bike

    My 6.6 was good on the first few days of practice and on the top section of the course, but by Sunday afternoon the course war so rutted out, that the 6.6 was very inconsistent and was skittering all over the course. My Morewood Izumu only weighs 36.4lbs, so there was no weight penality for riding a “big bike”
