The final Pro results were
determined by moto scores in
LD2 and LD3 (LD1 being only for
Sportsmen) and, coincidentally,

(Above) Trystan Hart made it an SRT Husqvarna 1-2. He ran consistently
up front all day, but he had to settle for second. In LD3, he and eventual
third-place finisher Taylor Robert helped each other up some of the gnarlier
routes. (Left) Kyle Redmond leads a group through the new boulder bin
section during the Pro-only prologue, which determined the starting order
for the LD2 heat, where he finished third. In the LD3 final heat, though, he
ended up dominating to take the overall for the first time since the inaugural

was the only rider besides the
top three to complete LD3's two
laps of a grueling loop approxi-
mately eight miles long at Glen
Helen Raceway Park.
