Triumph Racing’s Jalek Swoll Suffers Preseason Injury
Press Release | January 9, 2025
Jalek Swoll suffered a preseason injury, which may rule him out for the rest of the 250SX East season. Triumph Racing will now be represented by Jordon Smith and Stilez Robertson at the opening round in Anaheim, California.
The following is a press release from Triumph Racing…
With Jalek Swoll suffering an unfortunate preseason injury in the lead up to the 2025 AMA SuperMotocross World Championship season, Triumph Racing will now be represented by Jordon Smith and Stilez Robertson at the opening round in Anaheim, California.
Entering his second season with the Triumph Racing Factory Team, Swoll was eager to build upon his successful 2024 campaign. Initial symptoms indicate a tendon injury, although Jalek will undergo further detailed medical analysis for a full diagnosis.
The injury may rule out Swoll for the 250SX East season, so Austin Forkner will switch coasts from West to East with Stilez Robertson now set to make his Triumph Racing debut this weekend inside Angel Stadium. Everyone at Triumph wishes Jalek a fast recovery as we look forward to the 2025 season kick off.
Jeremy Coker – General Manager, Triumph Racing America: “This is a very unfortunate injury for Jalek as he was riding very well, and I do believe this will just be a small speed bump for him and he will return stronger than ever. Triumph and the team will be here ready to go for him when he returns to form.”
Ian Kimber – Head of Global Racing Programs, Triumph Motorcycles: “It’s a real shame for Jalek to be injured this close to the season, especially after seeing how well he had been riding in off season practice. He was the backbone of the team last year, and I’m hopeful he makes a speedy recovery, so we can see him step it up again this year. Swapping coasts for Austin and Stilez will ensure that we have the best representation on the gate possible and continue to build on the successes we had last year.”
