The RPHA 12 Helmet is a masterpiece of engineering, embodying the perfect balance of aerodynamics and comfort for motorcyclists. Built with the revolutionary Premium Integrated Matrix EVO (PIM EVO) construction, it offers a lightweight yet robust structure. The helmet's design prioritizes aerodynamic performance, featuring an optimized rear spoiler and shell shape that significantly reduces lift and drag, enhancing stability at high speeds.

For comfort, the interior is fully removable and features interchangeable cheek pads for a custom fit. The emergency pull tab is an added safety feature, allowing quick helmet removal in critical situations. Meeting DOT standards, the RPHA 12 is an ideal choice for riders seeking a helmet that excels in both performance and quality.

2024 RIDERS

INTERVIEW What initially sparked your interest in Supercross, and how did you get started in the sport? My dad raced locally when I was little and I wanted to be like him and once I started to race I watched Supercross and Jeremy McGrath was my idol. I knew I wanted to race Supercross from then on!

As a professional rider, you must have a rigorous training regimen. Can you walk us through what a typical training day looks like for you? A typical day of training is a good cycling or rowing warm up before heading to the track to get some riding laps in. Usually a set schedule that varies in overall lap count for the day then once that is done we come home and do a recovery cycle or gym work depending on the days.

LIQUI MOLY BETA RACING

In his first official season in the 450SX class, Colt is ready to prove why he deserves to be there. After winning the 250SX championship, he doesn’t expect anything less. Colt also won the 450 SX Rookie of the Year award and will be looking to add to his hardware while riding on the brand new Liqui Moly Beta Racing Team. Behind Nichols' success lies years of hard work, dedication, and relentless training. His passion for the sport and commitment to excellence serve as an inspiration to aspiring riders everywhere. As the Supercross season unfolds, all eyes will be on Colt Nichols as he continues to chase glory and strive for greatness on the track. With each race, he will showcase his status as a rising star and a contender for the championship title.

COLT NICHOLS

Colt Nichols, hailing from Muskogee, Oklahoma, has been making waves in the world of Supercross with his exceptional talent and unwavering determination. He began his journey in motocross at a young age and has since risen through the ranks to become one of the most exciting competitors in the sport.

Supercross races can be intense and demanding. How do you mentally prepare yourself before heading out onto the track? I like to mentally prepare myself by throwing my headphones in and listening to music during my warm up. Then I sit and visualize the start over and over as well as the race itself and that gets me ready to go!

Off the track, what are some of your favorite hobbies or activities to unwind and relax? I’ve really enjoyed the cycling and it’s been a bit of an escape sometimes for me but I love to play golf when I have time or just hangout with my family and friends.

You've had some impressive performances in past seasons. What do you attribute your success to, and how do you stay motivated to continually improve? Having discipline and a good work ethic is key, racing Supercross is such a hard sport and it can never be perfect so you are constantly chasing the other riders but mainly yourself to feel like you are performing to your potentially when it matters and that keeps me moving forward and motivated.

The Supercross season is known for its ups and downs. Can you share a memorable moment or race that stands out to you in your career so far? A memorable race would probably be Indianapolis 3 in 2021, I got the holeshot then crashed on the first lap and fought back up to a 3rd place finish for the night and saved my championship run.

What are your goals for the upcoming Supercross season, both personally and professionally? I personally want to enjoy the race weekends and feel like I raced to my potential and left it all on the track each time I race.

As a role model to aspiring riders, what advice would you give to young athletes looking to pursue a career in Supercross? To just never give up and have a strong work ethic to progress your skill and get to a supercross level.

Supercross fans are incredibly passionate. What's the most memorable interaction you've had with a fan? Seeing fans each year from the same cities if really cool about going to same venues and hearing some fans that have named their kid after you or something along those lines is pretty cool.

Finally, if you could sum up your journey in Supercross in one word, what would it be and why? Perseverance, I came into Supercross as a privateer and worked really hard to get to a factory team and to win a championship and be in the position I am now on a factory 450 with more goals to check off the list.
