- HEADING INTO THE NEW YEAR
Heads up! A new video has dropped! To help ring in the New Year and kick off the Supercross season, Bell Helmets just released a new “Under The Helmet” segment with professional Supercross rider Eli Tomac and his father, Hall of Fame mountain biker John Tomac. “John was also a Bell athlete throughout his career which makes for a cool connection,” says Bell Helmets Media Relations Manager JC Maldonado. “The story talks about Eli’s rise to success with his father’s guidance and his latest career transition as he seeks to cement his place as one of Supercross racing’s greats.”
Somewhere on a ranch in rural Colorado, there’s a supercross champion gearing up for an epic rivalry. The stakes couldn’t be higher for Eli Tomac, who just stunned the world with his jump to the “Blu Crew” at Yamaha. A new bike, new dreams, and a whole new upper limit to explore-it’s now up to Eli and the only trainer he’s ever known, mountain bike racing icon John Tomac. Get this first-ever behind the scenes look into life on the ranch as Eli goes full throttle on this new beginning. There’s no doubt he’ll come out swinging in 2022.
Can you imagine an entire nation of people working hard to achieve like Eli? Motocross is America. This sport is practically the only thing I can stand about our Country right now.
Wow, thank you Eli. I don't think I really thought about how much he has meant to the sport as I have grown up watching it until this video. It's going to be a sad day when ET3 retires, but he has earned every bit of his success and I wish him all the best. To me, his retirement will feel like the end of an era. Great video, and really great to see the personality behind Eli after so many years of what seemed like a disinterest in the media. I agree with some of the comments below; his switch to Yamaha and whatever is going on in his personal life seem to have really brought him to a more comfortable, open and happy place from a fan's perspective. Really enjoyed this.
"My Dad was a professional mountain biker"...understatement of the year! John Tomac is a GOAT!
THE MAN Eli TOMAC the legend in Supercross & motocross rider.
Refreshing to see a man and his family doing things together the right way. HARD WORK. Thanks for your inspiration Eli!!!
The most "Mysterious-Man" in Motocross
I lived in Cortez Colorado in the 60s and 70s I watch Eli's career go all the way up he's a awesome man and a good person he deserves to win and whatever he decides now he learned it cuz he will always be the champion long live the king William Leonardo route 23 Cortez Colorado Montezuma high School Cortez Colorado
No brainer our dads rock thank you dad
Whoever built this video should get an Oscar, I have never seen this and its awesome
Eli is great! Watching him in Beast mode is what got me back into the sport! Getting older and having a family and working as much as I did running a restaurant for 23 years you do not have a lot of time for things. Then one night flipping through the channels I stopped on a supercross race to watch for a minute a couple years ago and missed watching and then I saw #3 come through the crowd and how can you not love that. And then to find out what a great person he is and humble I loved it. Thanks Eli!
Best start of all time @9:11 lol.
Family as it should be, is AWESOME!
Another in a long list of championship riders in our sport that is an absolute class act.....
Let’s go Tomac!
You two make a great team,Cherish every moment,Time goes by fast.
ET3 is a living legend!!! Glad I am able to witness it all. Goat 🐐
I think they need to do a movie on some this supercross guys and put on Netflixs
Been an Eli Tomac fan since his early days with Honda. I could tell by his relentlessly aggressive riding style that he would either become an iconic legend of this sport or suffer a career ending injury. While he has had some pretty bad injuries, he's always come back, which cemented his legendary status forever.
You cán see he was a sweet boy.love when he says “what is it PAPA?? LOL
Excellent video .
Wasn’t much of a Eli fan til he went Yamaha. He’s opened up way more since the switch. Seems like a great guy with a new lease on life.
Don’t see how you couldn’t be a fan of Eli.
Who asked
So you don’t like someone because of the bike they ride? 😂😂
Sport personality of the year goes to Eli Tomac or should do. What a career so far for this formidable athlete.
Great guy .. great dad….solid mentality congrats for all the success 🎉🎉🎉
Such a clean rider , always a pleasure to watch .
Fast Forward, Won the 2022 450 SX Championship, 2022 ESPY Mens action sport award, 2022 450 Mx Championship, and Contributed on the efforts of Team USA winning MxOn.
this year was Killer for Eli Tomac, many had doubts of the switch but he proved us all wrong even surpassing his old records. He should be regarded of this sport greats to ever grace into.
what an absolute fantastic place you got there, would love to live at a place like that
Man I wish nothing but the best and the good lord’s blessings for Eli and his family. Great people.
But the selfish side of me is dying thinking about Eli not lining up anymore. This dude is just flat out the truth and is ALWAYS great to watch. Physically he’s got a lot left in the tank , but I get it. All us fans say we’d do it forever if we were there in their shoes, but truthfully we have no idea what these guys go through. I just hope we get a few more seasons before he thinks he can’t hang anymore.
I dont think I've ever seen Eli as good as he is on a Yamaha! If he's this dominant in supercross, I cant wait to see what he looks like outdoors. Class Act 100%
I can't wait to see Tomac in outdoors on the Yamaha now that he has his old shock mechanic back.
What a cool video and family!! The Tomas’s have always been on the quite side and that has always drawn me into watching. No trash talk just class act. So cool to see that a father and son can stand the test of time together when they are solid. You can tell the respect comes first over everything and I feel that is help them be so successful. All good things come to an end and I sure hope Eli doesn’t lose the fire for a few more years as I am long time fan of his and the sport. I don’t think I have missed watching a single supercross race since the 1989 back when you had to tape them in the middle of the night just to watch the race weeks after you knew who won. My hat goes off to the Tomac Family enjoy the ride and I have so enjoyed watching.
Great video edit and back story on the family that made Eli. This guy is pushing the limits in the sport some of the best racing I have ever seen. Eli for president “4 more years!”
So deserving!!! This is what hard work and good parenting does for you!!! Well done papa John and mama tomac!!! And great work eli!!Eli!!! Let's go Yamaha!!
We finally get a story, there wasn't much on Eli before this, awesome
Amazing father son dynamic, they both get it and have taken it to the very top of an incredibly difficult sport! Being from Colorado we’re crazy proud of Eli and his accomplishments. He’s always the consummate pro and his level of maturity is a testament to his parents and western upbringing, altogether it just makes him hard not to like.
Hope he wins a few more championships and then hangs it up, buys a ranch close to his folks and just spends the rest of his life in solitude chasing deer and elk with his kids and wife….thanks Eli for all the great rides we’ve been able to witness!!
A true champion 🏆
One of the GOATs
Love how tomac never takes his feet off the pegs. Shows how good his balance is.
I'm from the Philippines my name is Glenn Balneg and an avid fan of motorcross and supercross especially the man of consistency endurance durability and patience. I admire most of him is his style.be great and God is always at your side and your family.God bless....
I love their family dynamic it's really incredible
Almost made me cry when he said what is my bike papa.
Just lovely to watch. Family support is everything. Best of luck for 2022. Best wishes from Tasmania Australia.😀
heartwarming, what a nice family.
I’ve always been a fan of his talent and raw speed, add that with being down to earth and humble. It’s hard to not root for Eli. Keep ripping Eli!
I'm a huge fan for many reasons. Love watching the sport, it runs in my blood as well. Can't wait till motocross comes bk on from the break. Hope u get championship too!
I will confirm that ET has quite a few more years of racing and winning
Good family structurer and a discipline athlete for many more years
You heard it here first folks
ELI TOMAC 👍👍👍✌🏽✌🏽❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️🤩🤩fc Thailand
Eli is my favourite rider of all time, by the time I started to watch motocross and supercross Stewart, Carmichael, and villapoto were already either retired or on their way to retirement so I never really got to watch those guys race, but I did made it in time to see the beginnings Eli’s pro career and he quickly became my favourite rider.
When it was announced that he was leaving Kawasaki for the relatively new star racing Yamaha team I was skeptical, but seeing what he has been able to do this year has been an awesome experience. Let’s go ET3!
U did miss much but if go back to the rides from 70’s 80’s until Bradshaw & McGrath / emig era after that kinda got boring but Reed good but ELi, Anderson, pleassinger Webb Wilson are makingit interesting again
Tomac rules 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Great vid. What a nice man Eli grew up to be. He is unstoppable now on his yamaha. May i suggest after winni g everything this year which hell probably do... Go to Europe race theb mxgp I think he's the only one who can compete and win there
Potential new GOAT 🐐? Absofreakinlutely👍
this was so well done i luvd the story how the vids of him as a little child fit in his father so into the sport and supporting his son and even his mum the way shes speaking to him on camera all loving great family now he is the superstar of the sport literaly won everything u can win now winning lanations so cool ..This vid was well done and thanku ..👊 🤙
Ha! the General that's funny, always been a fan of Eli.
Well balanced person and family, hope ELi keeps competing for couple more season.
I hope that time to let it go is far away. Absolutely love watching you race every weekend. I find you on the start gate, which is pretty easy since you have a red plate, and pray you get the holeshot and the rest is history. You've been riding lights out this year.
Congrats! Good job guys! 👍
Come on Eli you’re just getting started! ET3 bringing another one home let’s go!
Such a great family, great people and great for our sport! ✊👏
It’s been a amazing season so far on the yammi.
true champion
I have that same purple n yellow cobra 50cc right now!! Great video!!
Hats-off Eli, you can do this- Just make sure they got the "Good Start" chip plugged-in!
What an awesome video! Love Eli and his work ethic
I think now a days a lot of teams train together and Eli keeps it just him and that’s why no one can match him always been a Tomac fan because everyone knows 💥 3 is going to be coming lol
This is a must watch!! Keep at it Eli your gonna do great this year!!
You’ve been proved right!
Best of luck Eli, see you in Seattle and Washougal!
He's a legend in motorcycle racing doing what he loves watched him at loretta Lynn's ranch every year always solid as a rock family team granulation on all your accomplishments
Awesome video. This dude will be around for a few more years if you go off his words and this year's results. McGrath record is done
Noones catching Jeremy's record. Not even Eli.
@@69mjar If Eli rides 4 more years and gets 8 wins per sx season will end up close.
Class act Star yamaha got themselves a real champion here
Looks so nice to grow up on a farm. Wish i did.
Excellent.
Family- Eli’s world is racing, but the constant thing in his life always comes back to Family! Living in Cortez where he is away from things helps with focusing on racing but zJohn and his Moms values seem to be spot on for Eli and now he has an awesome wife it seems to bad we will never get to know her how we have got to see a side of his dad but he seems to have the perfect little family and he is happy I hope for us fans that means more racing after the injury and the rise of Jett going perfect his rookie year we wii have to see how it goes! I would love to see zJett eating beast mode roost!
Looks like Eli still has the fire, and the work ethic: ruclips.net/video/7_gLvqbO5cM/видео.html
Very cool. Kicking ass this year. 💪🏽🏍💨
Gonna be a sad day too see the #3 hang it up!! But its been one hell of a ride!!
Legend
He’s amazing!
Thanks! "one more gear".
I think that Eli is a little surprised that he is picking up and learning from this experience and that being around danger boy has given him a little shot of being young again and some of that excitement of becoming a pro and starting out your career! Deegan only has 1 year as a pro under his belt and it is good for Eli to spend some time with him! I am sure at first it has been a little awkward until the got use to everything John as well, John is totally different then Brian but hats of to Brian for being right there with Haden and given him that comfort of his father being there with him and all four are going to be the better for it.
I participated in a MB race back in the late 80’s and I remember John smoked everyone.
He might be the only one to make McGrath sweat, before he’s done.
It’s funny he started on the same little pw50 bike as a million Other kids -
but his parents were both world champion level athletes.it’s all in the genetics and the upbringing!
I don’t know about the genetic aspect but his upbringing seems so much better than most.
U know when i became a serious fan is when i saw a video like this hmmm may be 5 years ago an i saw this track at his house i watch him ride with total admiration because that is a awsum track an it aint cheap ti have that....if u aint serious about ur riding...then u wouldnt have that...i road race an im still trying ti figure out how bad i want a road racing track in my back yard...im doing ok with the jonesing..i hooked the super moto league up with my local go kart track thats a mile from my casa....so now i can go ride a R6 there an tell them its a 400...cc...peace thanks good stuff keep up the Good work Eli...pretty awsum so far...
Eli at 45, yes im still kicking butt, so ill just carry on winning races and championships.
Legendary
Family ❤
Class act!
Started in a Yamaha, may as well finished his career in a Yamaha. Full circle there!
Keep racing until it’s not fun. When it becomes work, a job, that’s when it’s time
When he's done racing him and his dad need to do what Alden Baker's doing.
Awesome
And bammm wins the supercross and is winning in points on the outdoor with 4 round left......great year....
Amazing
Awesome video. Fkn legend
As he is '' erring '' towards the tail end of his professional career. He has mellowed, it has made him a better person, rider. When he was younger I saw him as contemptible. But better now.
GOAT!
As a ROAD RACER and a supercross rider....i really have respect for the rider who brings his A game to every race i dont care what bike he rides i race a honda in motocross an a yamaha in Road racing...so the brand has nothing ti do with the rider im a fan of...im a racer what ever bike i race it because its handle the way im used to an has power ti get a holeshot...its like sports some times ur favirite player get traded to other teams...u are gonna give up on him as ur hero because he lives in another city an is on a different team...if they bring the A game everyday all day...u gotta love that an be a fan...im not a fan of energy drinks am i gonna stop watching SX or RR or MX because of that hell..no
Beast Mode!!
