MITCHELL FALK
2016 has been a breakout year for Orange Brigade’s KTM’s Mitchell Falk. The californian has stepped up his game since getting on a training program a couple of years back with Buddy ‘Budman’ Antunez - one of the most successful arenacross
riders of all time. Falk has been regularly dominating the B class in every major event that he’s contested, only losing out in 250 B at the extremely competitive RCSX and being forced to settle for a tenth place finish. Supercross is a completely different animal than outdoors and the track this year for the Daytona event was extremely hard to pass on. In 250 B Limited he took first place as well as putting in a solid third place result in Schoolboy 2 13 - 16. Other than that minor setback in the form of a 10th place finish, Falk has claimed a seemingly countless amount of number one plates, most notably sweeping all of his classes at the Freestone Spring Championship. He’s currently on a winning streak that would make James Stewart do a double take and his confidence will be soaring as a result. Falk will be looking to play off of that momentum coming into the California Classic. Will he be able to keep his streak of first place finishes alive?
