• Hi everyone,

    As you all know, Coffee (Dean) passed away a couple of years ago. I am Dean's ex-wife's husband and happen to have spent my career in tech. Over the years, I occasionally helped Dean with various tech issues.

    When he passed, I worked with his kids to gather the necessary credentials to keep this site running. Since then (and for however long they worked with Coffee), Woodschick and Dirtdame have been maintaining the site and covering the costs. Without their hard work and financial support, CafeHusky would have been lost.

    Over the past couple of weeks, I’ve been working to migrate the site to a free cloud compute instance so that Woodschick and Dirtdame no longer have to fund it. At the same time, I’ve updated the site to a current version of XenForo (the discussion software it runs on). The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.

    Unfortunately, the new software version doesn’t support importing the old site’s styles, so for now, you’ll see the XenForo default style. This may change over time.

    Coffee didn’t document the work he did on the site, so I’ve been digging through the old setup to understand how everything was running. There may still be things I’ve missed. One known issue is that email functionality is not yet working on the new site, but I hope to resolve this over time.

    Thanks for your patience and support!

Jason Anderson (Husqvarna) - Andrew Short collide

This sx season has had several odd occurrences already this yr.., Here's AS29 crashing badly while running in 2nd place. That's odd enough but then a Husqvarna rider, Jason Anderson, crashes into him while running 3rd? Do they still make Husqvarna bikes?

Certainly hope AS29 is ok .... This guy just does not crash. Maybe another foot of travel distance and his suspension would have maybe taken the impact ...
 
Nothing broken for Short. Not sure of anything else like a concussion. Looked like it knocked the wind out of him though
 
Here's a ~blurry view of what coming up short \ ~casing a jump is about. The Wil Hahn crash last week was a little different. Wil did not even get close to clearing his front wheel over the receiver... Here, you can see AS29 comes up short a foot or so behind the receiver ramp peak ... That leaves the rear shock to absorb all the impact on the wrong side of the ramp ... This moment is where you gotta have a rear-suspension or maybe you are bucked off into the ozone layer.


Next 2 shots show the forks are already collapsed as he rolls ~up&over the peak.

(This gives a pretty good view of KR94 suspension work also. He's at the bottom of his front and rear stokes also.)

This looks about the perfect position AS is in now to keep the read-end down. JA21 did a good or accidental job of missing AS.

That leader board was changing alot with the top riders moving around. Its like the track is not big enough for all those riders..
 
I just noticed JA21 gives a very good example of why you do not want to over-jump in a section like this also ... That buck-up he's dealing with was ~probably not started by over-braking.

RV2 says: Not yet...wake me up before next month, ok?
 
And Anderson ran into another fallen rider later, was as far back as 13th, but rallied for a 7th. Anderson was fast out there.

Any Reed fans?? haha
 
How about the Oakland SX? That was some good stuff and congrats to Malcom.:cheers: Roczen may have a headache this morning...Ouch!
