We ran into JGR Yamaha’s Josh Grant at the grocery store today, and we just happened to have a video camera in the TWMX Tundra to grab a quick update. Fortunately, JG’s X Games injuries were not as bad as initially feared, and there is a slim chance that we’ll see #33 in action before the end of the season.

i love to watch josh ride and everything an i hoped he'd win the championship this year but i think its time to get out of those cheezy no fear Boots. Thats probably the reason for the injuries. look what happend to ferry. yeah those boots are expensive but they are useless. hope to see you at the Wick Josh.

thats a bummer grant was out i think he had reeds number maybe not for the championship but deffinitely raw speed
August 19th, 2009 at 2:31 pm
Ferry wears Scott boots not No Fear boots like JG33 so I'm not sure what your getting at there my friend
August 19th, 2009 at 2:37 pm
I really like him and it's a bummer cause I was hoping he'd take the championship this year he really deserves it. I think he's one of the most under rated pros out there right now.

ferry is wearing gearne sg12 boots
August 19th, 2009 at 4:31 pm

When Ferry wore Scott, he did something to his foot at Daytona.
Grant is wearing no fear because they are one of his sponsors
August 19th, 2009 at 5:25 pm
yea if he was wearing tech 10s or something i dont think he would of messed up his feet as bad…
August 19th, 2009 at 5:46 pm
yeah put he's not sponsored by astars he's sponsored but no fear thats why he's wearing the boots!
August 19th, 2009 at 6:05 pm
no he wears o neal boots
August 19th, 2009 at 7:03 pm
Too bad he threw away his best shot at a outdoor title. With Alessi, Villopoto, and possibly Stewart back next year he has no chance. He had a very slim chance this year but he threw it all away trying to get somethin that means nothin. Teams don't care about x games gold. they want SX and outdoor titles. But you know what they say " stupid hurts"

I was at Washougal and watched both Grant and Reed jump this down hill corner double/double thing. Pourcel tried it a couple of times, but quit. Nobody else even tried. It didn't even look possible. After the first practice they took the lip off the first jump, I think all the other riders were scared. Those two made it look easy. Cool to watch. I wish somebody, somewhere had some vid of it.

ferry wore o-neal boots last year, did supercross with scott boots, and now is in the gearne sg-12 good move, real comfortable boots too
August 20th, 2009 at 7:11 am
"teams dont care about x games gold"
uhhhh….think again bud. you couldn't be more wrong.

The only problem with Josh coming back is that Chad Reed keeps getting faster. James Stewart is really going to have his hands full now! There was a time when James was unbeatable on the Kawi, but I think the Yamaha is plagued.

josh grant is the man! fast, down to earth, aggressive, nasty whips… great rider

The AMA made the track take out that section because of safety reasons,they didnt want someone to get landed on sice they were crossing lines in the air. I saw them doing it also it was pretty cool, I saw Goerke do it a couple of times also
August 20th, 2009 at 5:23 pm
pontus is correct I looked it up Ferry is sporting the Gearne sg12 boots my bad.
August 20th, 2009 at 5:46 pm
Ive owned a Kawasaki KXF250, a Honda CRF250, and a Yamaha YZ450F and I say the Yamaha has been the best bike I've owned so far but it is all about personal preferance.
August 20th, 2009 at 7:52 pm
If he was only wearing Gaernes
August 20th, 2009 at 11:09 pm
GRRRR!
August 21st, 2009 at 8:55 am
yamaha plagued? ru serious? stupidest comment ever, ya stupid plague made him come back from a near impossible situation to win the title this year… oh ya and without fuel injection. HA
August 21st, 2009 at 6:26 pm
Wouldn't this have happened to one of JGR's riders sometime since it was caused by a faulty part. I mean, wouldn't the eventually use it because why would they have parts sitting around that they end up throwing away??

The way Josh was going off on his mechanic like the way he he did was an embarrasment to his team. What a kook!
September 24th, 2009 at 9:11 pm
dude your a retard
September 26th, 2009 at 7:08 pm
Does not change the fact that Josh Grant spazzzed out like a little child on nation-wide TV…even Carmichael recognized that jp73dumbass! Did you really not see what happened? Come on dumbass.
September 26th, 2009 at 7:19 pm
You spelled "your" wrong. It is spelled "you're." Who's the retard? Plus, there should be a comma after dude.

it's true, everywhere you go people are either selling their yamahahaaas or pushing them off the track. And this is not an opinion I developed over night. No offense to you or the color blue.
