Pretty cool....but anyone know why he wouldn't be running supermoto tires? Or at least dual sport? I can't imagine knobbies being the best choice for those surfaces.

Dammit.

Ended up being pretty uneventful...still don't know why they use knobbies though.

why not knobs?

Just thinking that knobbies would be less stable and provide less grip, and I'd think you'd want plenty of both in attempting a jump like that. Guess not though.
