Taddy is the unquestioned current King of Endurocross and the XG Enduro X favorite. But surprisingly, he grew up competing in trials and had no plans for full-sized Enduro-style dirtbikes. But then he entered the grueling Erzberg Rodeo race for fun, and he went so fast that KTM offered him a factory contact on the spot. Then he won the race! Since then he's been nearly unbeatable in Endurocross in the U.S. and Europe, as well as Extreme Enduro events around the world. Despite the trials background, Blazusiak attacks tracks with the aggression of a Supercrosser, making him spectacular and effective. Blazusiak has been dominant: He's won 13 AMA EnduroCross events in his career. No other rider has won more than 3.
