Anaheim One 2026 Breakdown on the Kickstart Podcast

Presented by Maxxis and Outhouse Coffee Co. Well, the Southern California leg of the 2026 Supermotocross World Championship has come to a close, and the Anaheim Two Supercross was packed with action on the track, in the stands, and back in the pits! The Swapmoto Live team of Chase Curtis, Donn Maeda, and Alex Ray go over everything that they saw, heard, and learned at Angels Stadium last Saturday!

Presented by Maxxis and Outhouse Coffee Co. For as exciting as the Anaheim One season kickoff was, round two inside San Diego's Snapdragon Stadium was 10 times more thrilling. From the three-way battle for the 450 win to Chase Sexton's last-to-fourth jaunt through the field, and from Haiden Deegan's authoritative pass on teammate Max Anstie for the 250 win to Levi Kitchen's last-to-fourth comeback...there was a lot to talk about on this week's Kickstart Podcast by Maxxis and Outhouse Coffee Co.!

Presented by 6D Helmets We were driving through Menifee, California, yesterday, and passed by Jeremy McGrath's race shop - which also used to be home to SML - and saw that MC was out front working on his Kawasaki KRX UTV. We pulled in to say hello, and thought it would be a great opportunity to catch up with McGrath and see what he's been up to! Of course, we also reminisced about some good old times, plus did some bench racing about last weekend's Anaheim One Supercross! Enjoy!

Presented by 6D Helmets Last Saturday night, Eli Tomac earned the 54th 450 Supercross win of his career at Angels Stadium and made it 12 seasons straight that he has won at the highest level of the sport. "Wow, that makes me feel pretty ancient," he joked. "But winning Anaheim One is the big one - it's our Indy 500, right?" ET3 joined us for this installment of the 6D Helmets Midweek Podcast to talk about the WSX rounds, pre-season testing, what it's like to work with Roger DeCoster, and lots more. To hear him say that he gets stoked to pull up to the track and see his new KTM is just plain cool...enjoy!

Presented by Maxxis and Outhouse Coffee Co. Where do we even begin? The Anaheim One Supercross was everything that we had hoped it would be, and more!

Presented by Maxxis and Outhouse Coffee Co. We hope everyone had an enjoyable Christmas with family and friends! On this week's show, we recap some of the things that have developed in the sport over the holiday, plus talk about what swap saw at the Baker's Factory last week when he paid a visit to Florida to see Malcolm Stewart, Aaron Plessinger, RJ Hampshire, Jorge Prado, Daxton Bennick, Casey Cochran, and more, prepare for the 2026 season.

Presented by 6D Helmets Unless you're one of the elite few who earn a factory ride, racing Supercross and motocross professionally is not sustainable for years on end. Finding a career that keeps you involved in the sport you love is the dream for most racers when they retire, but even that can be a challenge. Jared Hicks was a Supercross privateer who teamed up with German privateer Philipp Klakow to start a custom graphics company to support their racing habit, way back in 2011. These days, Backyard Design USA has grown exponentially, and Hicks and Klakow are working full-time to grow their company from both sides of the globe. Hicks is also one of Dirt Bike Magazine's staple test riders, so he still gets to spend plenty of time in the saddle of a motocross bike. Jared joins us on this week's 6D Helmets Midweek Podcast for a super-enjoyable chat!

The sport received some massive news over the weekend regarding 450 Supercross Championship contender Jett Lawrence and an injury he suffered on Friday, during a practice crash. Alex Ray and Chase Curtis discuss Jett's injury, how it changes things for his championship rivals, some late silly-season news, and more on this week's Kickstart Podcast!
