glad you are ok DeeO. i didnt realize how big of a fan of watching you ride i was until i literally blurted out OH NO! when you crashed on the stepdown
Bro, I love that you finished the motos despite circumstances (no Stewart here)! Thunder Valley and the BigCat Racing team not mixing well lately. Proud of you two (you and your Dad) for making a day of it. We need to make an overdue sacrifice to the moto gods.
Thanks, dude! Since bitching out of the Arenacross two years ago, I've been disappointed in myself and never want to give up like that again. It stinks riding around in last place but at least I have my dignity I guess. Didn't want to let my "fans," friends, and family down.
I'm beat just watching that, You rode awesome dude! shame about the wreck's though. You are a beast for finishing that last moto when it made no difference. You demonstrated the perfect attitude to take racing, Thats why I love your channel!
Thanks so much, Quaussie! I didn't want to let anyone down so I pushed through to the checkers. Had some bad luck on the day but that's how it goes sometimes.
Had a triscuits ad right when you went sideways off the step down. One of the most suspenseful 15 seconds in my life. Glad you're ok man. Race days are tough, but in my experience, positive thinking on a bad day can pull you through. Not trying to tell you anything you probably already know, but I had that problem myself last season.
That wreck coulda been a lot worse if you went high side! Im sure it still didn’t feel good! Nice video, bet it was a fun day riding and hanging out with you Dad. It’s awesome he records and supports you
Hey dude these things don't always go out way but thanks for racing and making the video I know it was a super long day and I appreciate you riding and creating content for us great video and good luck for this year
Glad you low slid, had a similar go of it in my opening race, but high sided over a roller. And don't worry about the finishes, is vets do it for the fun of it!
Great video man :) I must say you rode really well considering it was your first race after quite some time! Glad to see you in one piece after that crash, those counter slids at the face of jump always suck! Anyway, you did great and I can't wait for the next video :)
Lol at 19:24ish I thought to myself “damn that was a clean tear off pull”. I had to rewind to watch again. Apparently you thought it was too. Thought that was pretty funny.
Haha I sure did man! I think it's the first time I've ever done a whip (even though small) and ripped a tearoff. Silly but it was cool. Glad you liked it!
Awesome to see you racing again, gonna have to take it easy a couple days after that crash (and if its easy, take it twice, but you know that). I'll be attempting my first race this weekend so we'll see how that goes.
Man finishes aren't everything especially when you only do it for fun, as long as you enjoy yourself thats all that matters, my results recently have been bad but im competing on big national events but i had fun and thats the best part
ReturnOfDeeO I rode my bike first time in 6 months last weekend since my shoulder injury was good to get out on the bike did a 60km loop just about killed me haha
Good job on getting the hole shot device I think I said something in ur last vid about getting one. Wether u used it or not still good to see u got one when u do use it you'll notice the difference on your starts
That was a scary crash looking at the footage I'm glad you slid like you did was that a baseball slide or a NFL quarterback slide lol glad your ok love watching good luck the rest of the year
Awesome racing man! You did great 👍🏼. Few questions I just ordered a pro shot for my GoPro, what setting do you recommend recording in? Wide 60fps? Or normal 60fps? Also you said you were riding with your glasses on, how was it because I wear glasses but don’t ride with them and I was thinking about getting contacts for racing. What are your thoughts?
Hey deeo if you want to get better start if people are in front of you going into the corner pull ur clutch in and rev your bike then the people will get scared that ur gonna run into them and they move out of the way
Out of curiosity will you not use the helmet that was in the crash again? because helmets are one impact items and it looked like it took a decent hit (hard enough to break the mount)
Hey man I just moved here and was watching your videos on the tracks to get a idea of where to go to ride and I was wondering where did you get that ramp I’ve really wanted a better set up then what I have
Welcome, Evan! Let me know and we can meet up and ride! I got the ramp when I bought my old bike. It is an Ogio Step Up but has since been discontinued, unfortunately. Might be able to find one used.
ReturnOfDeeO thanks Deeo I really appreciate it !!! I’m headed to IMI today with my KTM and my YZ and I’ll be at the thunder valley Thursday . That would be awesome for us to link up and ride brother would love to Seriously
Just the typical oil and oil filter changes and air filter changes. 8 - 10 hours on oil, air filter every other ride or when it needs it. I don't go too overboard with it. Also of course things like chain wax before riding and checking spoke torques.
Your gopro didnt really get to record the better part of 3/4 motos and you still were able to turn it into a 41 minute video! Hey, do you start in 1st or 2nd gear when you have to power up that hill at Thunder Valley?
I do it for the kids! Many thanks to my pops for getting all the footage to make the motos worthwhile. I was doing second. I've heard of people doing first at TV before, but I feel you'd have to shift halfway up the hill and lose ground. I need to experiment with it more!
I think 6 laps but I got lapped so I did one less. From gate drop to checkers I think it was 12 minutes for me, so probably about 14-15 minutes for the lead A rider.
ReturnOfDeeO Okay thats not that long as I thought. Our Amateur Motos here in Germany are between 20 minutes for the 125 youth classes and 25 to 30 minutes for the usual 250 or 450 amateur classes. But nice ride in the 2nd b-moto ! Looked quite solid.
Would you be fine if your yz125 was your only bike? Im looking at getting one but im not 100% sold on the 2 stroke. I love it for being cheap to rebuild cuz i dont have a ton of $$$ so it be more convenient. People who ride 4 strokes say they rebuild there motor about 1nce every 2 years, i cant see spending 1k on a motor rebuild? Basically what im asking, Do you like your yz125
well id be more for trail riding/ trace and hare scramble every here and there. If its acutally 20 hours then its a no go i do not have the time to do that.
well that would last a lot longer i was pinned all the time on a moto track soo... it didn't last long but if your riding trails you should be got for a 50-60 hour rebuild then if not longer and its only around 200 so you cant beat it.
*crashes* FWAM FWAM FWAM 😂😂 Dude that’s so me.
Haha you know it bro!
glad you are ok DeeO. i didnt realize how big of a fan of watching you ride i was until i literally blurted out OH NO! when you crashed on the stepdown
That means a lot to me Dogbite, thanks man.

Thanks so much, Quaussie! I didn't want to let anyone down so I pushed through to the checkers. Had some bad luck on the day but that's how it goes sometimes.
Man ounce you start to ride lose you put down some good laps! Also impressed how you gained confidence from the first moto to the second good job.
Thanks, Nathan!
nice video man. i won for my first time at thunder valley this weekend.
HELL YEA!!!
Thanks bro! I saw! We were on the line while you were tearing up the Schoolboy class, good job!
Nice!
Nice
Had a triscuits ad right when you went sideways off the step down. One of the most suspenseful 15 seconds in my life. Glad you're ok man. Race days are tough, but in my experience, positive thinking on a bad day can pull you through. Not trying to tell you anything you probably already know, but I had that problem myself last season.
Haha the suspense! Thanks Hobos. I tried to be positive but I'm just an anxious and nervous person so it can be rough.
That tear off swag was siiiiick!
Thanks Dirty Joe!
That’s racing bud, good days n bad days but the very good days make up for it all 😎✊
So true!
that beautiful chocolate cake track😍
It was good!
Awesome vid man. You popped up in my recommended. Glad I clicked! Just subbed man, keep it up
That's great to hear! Thanks for checking out the channel!
That wreck coulda been a lot worse if you went high side! Im sure it still didn’t feel good! Nice video, bet it was a fun day riding and hanging out with you Dad. It’s awesome he records and supports you
For sure man, like I said in the video! Yeah it's always a good time spending time with him :) .
Great video as always DeeO 19:23 was dope!
Thanks bro! Probably the coolest tearoff I've ever grabbed haha
Hey dude these things don't always go out way but thanks for racing and making the video I know it was a super long day and I appreciate you riding and creating content for us great video and good luck for this year
Thanks so much, Michael!
Great video Daniel. You ran some kick ass motos even tho the odds weren’t in your favor. Glad everything’s ok and can’t wait till next time.
Thanks Kayden! Tried to make the most of it for sure.
gnarly crash...glad you made it out and even finished that moto! Nice riding man!
Thanks Dave! Crazy stuff out there.
DeeO is so Underrated solid riding!
Oh you! Thanks bro
Hey man, Keep it up brother. You seriously inspire me just to do MORE. 💯💜
Yes i know he crashed. STILL solid riding tho 💯!!!!!!! the fact he got back up on the saddle.
That was a pretty sick tear off pull I have to give it to you!
Haha thanks Connor, felt pretty cool :)
Glad you low slid, had a similar go of it in my opening race, but high sided over a roller. And don't worry about the finishes, is vets do it for the fun of it!
Definitely dude, got lucky! True that! Thanks for watching, Robert.
Damn dude that was a gnarly crash god thing you sent destroyed after that!
Tried bro! Thanks!
Dang that was a scary crash glad you're alright and were able to walk it off. Awesome day of racing you did really well.
Thanks, Yarden! Definitely scary, I'm glad it went as well as it did.
Glad you walked away from all the carnage!! I think I saw the gopro fly away in one of the slo-mo shots..
Thanks Brian! I'm very thankful. I'll have to rewatch and look out for the gopro!
On this episode of damn with deeo: deeo edition hahaha! Glad you’re okay man, definitely lucky you low sided though!
For sure lucky! I was thinking about doing a Damn! with DeeO on the crash!
Great video man :) I must say you rode really well considering it was your first race after quite some time! Glad to see you in one piece after that crash, those counter slids at the face of jump always suck! Anyway, you did great and I can't wait for the next video :)
Thank you, MotoJan! All in all it was a pretty good day.
They need gopro tear offs attached to the goggle tear offs
That'd definitely be nice!
Damn buddy... crazy crash but I’m glad you’re okay. No bad days🤘
You've got that right! Thanks man!
Lol at 19:24ish I thought to myself “damn that was a clean tear off pull”. I had to rewind to watch again. Apparently you thought it was too. Thought that was pretty funny.
Haha I sure did man! I think it's the first time I've ever done a whip (even though small) and ripped a tearoff. Silly but it was cool. Glad you liked it!
Awesome to see you racing again, gonna have to take it easy a couple days after that crash (and if its easy, take it twice, but you know that). I'll be attempting my first race this weekend so we'll see how that goes.
Thanks, man! It was fun to get back out there. Luckily I wasn't TOO beat up from that crash! Good luck at your race, I'll expect a full report!
Thats good to hear! Haha depends on how the race goes ;)
Wow that was a good one glad you're ok bro!!
Thanks Nick! I'm glad I am too haha
I've been waiting for this video all day!
That crash looks like it hurt
I hope it was worth the wait for you, Scott!
Man finishes aren't everything especially when you only do it for fun, as long as you enjoy yourself thats all that matters, my results recently have been bad but im competing on big national events but i had fun and thats the best part
Definitely bro. Just gotta have some fun with it and if the results come with it then that's great but not worth stressed out about too much.
It’s so dope that you get to ride and race the same soil that 80+ of the worlds fastest riders do
Definitely man. I sometimes take it for granted, but it's pretty damn cool to think about like that!
Glad your ok.... deeo keep the fun factor.. That's all that really matters
Thank you, Jason! Definitely man, not making money or going pro from riding, just gotta enjoy it and have some fun!
Good on you dude for sticking out the motos you came off in only way to get better is by doing it right so keep it up
Thanks, Clark! I gave up a few years ago at the Arenacross and was pissed at myself, didn't want to do that again!
ReturnOfDeeO I rode my bike first time in 6 months last weekend since my shoulder injury was good to get out on the bike did a 60km loop just about killed me haha
Good job on getting the hole shot device I think I said something in ur last vid about getting one. Wether u used it or not still good to see u got one when u do use it you'll notice the difference on your starts
Thanks CoreyBama!
The rev limiter going through the rollers. ❤️
Letting 'er eat!
That was a scary crash looking at the footage I'm glad you slid like you did was that a baseball slide or a NFL quarterback slide lol glad your ok love watching good luck the rest of the year
Thank you, Robert! I definitely could have stole second base with that slide!
Love your videos!!!
Thank you! I'm happy to hear that :)
The 100% winter gloves work good in the cold
You know deeo loves us when he wipes off the gopro mid moto
You better believe it, I love you guys so much! Always trying to make the best content available and keeping a clean gopro when I can.
Glad you’re ok man!
Me too bro! Thanks!
Great video 👍🤘
I'm glad you liked it, thank you Leonel!
Awesome vid
Thank you, Carlos! I'm glad you enjoyed.
MISSION FAILED YOU’LL GET EM NEXT TIME
Good shit, awesome racing
Thank you, Chad!
Yes I have been waiting for this video
I hope it was worth the wait!
I have watched every single one of ur videos sence u started riding and let me tell u that u have gotton alot faster
I appreciate it Aidan, thanks!
Awesome racing man! You did great 👍🏼. Few questions I just ordered a pro shot for my GoPro, what setting do you recommend recording in? Wide 60fps? Or normal 60fps? Also you said you were riding with your glasses on, how was it because I wear glasses but don’t ride with them and I was thinking about getting contacts for racing. What are your thoughts?
I run my gopro in Superview 60fps. I'd say try riding with glasses for yourself and see how it feels and go from there!
Hey deeo if you want to get better start if people are in front of you going into the corner pull ur clutch in and rev your bike then the people will get scared that ur gonna run into them and they move out of the way
Isaiah's Productions 14 yeah that might work in 65cc beginner but not going to do anything to B riders lol
Out of curiosity will you not use the helmet that was in the crash again? because helmets are one impact items and it looked like it took a decent hit (hard enough to break the mount)
Nah, not going to replace it from this one. I need a new helmet eventually but not from this crash. The velcro on the mount just came undone.
Damn with Daniel oooof
I was thinking about doing one on this actually haha
Get on that gas son none the less good job!!!
I thought I was on the gas, but thank you!
Hard to tell sometimes with GoPro
dang that crash was knarly. So lucky you didn't highside.
Definitely bro, would have been bad!
Man Wheres The GoPro When You Most Need It :D The GoPros Are Really Sassy xD
They really are!
Lucky! Wish I had a Sonic that wasn't an hour drive away lol
Ah dude, it's so close to my apartment, it's bad haha
ReturnOfDeeO all of the ones that were close to me have shit down. It sux. I want those chilli cheese tots man lol
My dad got those after the race haha. I haven't had them!
ReturnOfDeeO So good!!!
Love your license plate number!!
Reppin' that 803 hard!
good vid as always !!!
Thank you, Josh!
ReturnOfDeeO no problem man. If I had some money I’d for sure b a patreon. But I’m short on money right now. Soon tho ;)
Hey man I just moved here and was watching your videos on the tracks to get a idea of where to go to ride and I was wondering where did you get that ramp I’ve really wanted a better set up then what I have
Welcome, Evan! Let me know and we can meet up and ride! I got the ramp when I bought my old bike. It is an Ogio Step Up but has since been discontinued, unfortunately. Might be able to find one used.
ReturnOfDeeO thanks Deeo I really appreciate it !!! I’m headed to IMI today with my KTM and my YZ and I’ll be at the thunder valley Thursday . That would be awesome for us to link up and ride brother would love to Seriously
Good vid deeo loved it
Thanks Jackson, I'm very happy to hear that!
You are super lucky it didn’t catch and high side lol
For sure, that's what I said in the video!
Try creeping forward slowly on the starts
What kind of bike maintenance and how often do you do it?
Just the typical oil and oil filter changes and air filter changes. 8 - 10 hours on oil, air filter every other ride or when it needs it. I don't go too overboard with it. Also of course things like chain wax before riding and checking spoke torques.
Finch was on rails Sunday all his motos! I couldn't find ur pits Sunday so couldnt say what's up :/
Yeah he's so quick. Totally killin' it. Ah lame man, sorry!
Ever thought of racing a harescramble Deeo?
Not really!
What is the name of your watch??? Love the video
Polar FT60!
Might be a dumb question but do you still have the 125
Yes I do!
Your gopro didnt really get to record the better part of 3/4 motos and you still were able to turn it into a 41 minute video!
Hey, do you start in 1st or 2nd gear when you have to power up that hill at Thunder Valley?
I do it for the kids! Many thanks to my pops for getting all the footage to make the motos worthwhile.
I was doing second. I've heard of people doing first at TV before, but I feel you'd have to shift halfway up the hill and lose ground. I need to experiment with it more!
Instant like when i saw the temperature in celcius. Dont gotta go do the conversion
I'll remember to add that in to future videos!
That crash was definitely a dam worthy crash
I was thinking about doing a DAMN! with DeeO on it, maybe I will!
Dude I’ve had that same feeling that my front end was pulling on my 15 and 17 hondas. It comes and goes I don’t get it!
Troy Hubbard longer link definitely helps the 17+ a lot. Also different engine mounts.
I think the front brake perch was packed with mud causing the front brake to drag and pull me around. I hope you get yours situated!
damnn dude, soil samples are never fun lol, hope you're ok!
Not at all! Thanks bro!
nice
Thanks, Jake!
No way in my head I was thinking u haven't had a good size crashed in a while and then that happened
You jinxed me! Thanks for watching, Alfie.
You should make a edit or something using a beartooth song. Itd be *sick*
Puppy Monkey Gaming unfortunately copyrights are a thing.
ReturnOfDeeO good point. I forgot lol
How long are These 450 B motos?
I think 6 laps but I got lapped so I did one less. From gate drop to checkers I think it was 12 minutes for me, so probably about 14-15 minutes for the lead A rider.
ReturnOfDeeO Okay thats not that long as I thought.

People who ride 4 strokes say they rebuild there motor about 1nce every 2 years, i cant see spending 1k on a motor rebuild? Basically what im asking, Do you like your yz125
Snickers when I raced 125 I was doing rebuilds every 20 hours or less on them but it’s only like 200 ish every time
Snickers a yz 125 is a great bike for the money
Two StrokeKiller but you.dont have to your probably riding it really hard👍🏻
well id be more for trail riding/ trace and hare scramble every here and there. If its acutally 20 hours then its a no go i do not have the time to do that.
well that would last a lot longer i was pinned all the time on a moto track soo... it didn't last long but if your riding trails you should be got for a 50-60 hour rebuild then if not longer and its only around 200 so you cant beat it.

What’s a hole shot device
Exactly what Isaac said. It locks the forks down so you can get on the gas harder without wheely-ing.
Ok thanks
