Following a first-turn fall at the January 24 Anaheim 2 AMA Supercross round, Honda HRC Progressive rider Chance Hymas is scheduled to undergo an operation on Friday, January 30, to repair the labrum in his left shoulder. Hymas’ recovery is expected to be eight weeks.
“It wasn’t the best start on my end, but I was still in a decent position coming into the first corner,” Hymas explained. “Another rider crashed, which ultimately took me down as well. Unfortunately, when I put my arm out to catch myself, I put it in a weird position and ended up dislocating my shoulder. It’s devastating on my end going through everything I went through to get back into racing shape, but fortunately I have a good group of people around me that support me 100%. All things considered, the team and I decided it’s in my best interest to get my labrum repaired this Friday and turn my focus to being 100% healthy and ready for outdoors.”
Before the injury, Hymas was third in the 250SX West Coast standings after a second place in A1 and a sixth in San Diego.
