its weird how much the focus of the X-Games has shifted from like barefoot waterskiing behind a seaplane and bungee jumping to skateboarding/bmx/rollerblading and now they're all about motocross in all forms. They're a ratings machine, thats for sure.

why would they drop inline, as its most likely one of the top courses. if they actually had a decent park, then it would more exciting.
plus they added rally cars, which is total weaksauce.
oldschool xgames were the best, all about ice and speed climbing, and street luge and shit, it was all baller

Shit you're getting pissed now? I bet none of you remember the shovel racing they had. That was the craziest shit I've ever watched and was very sad when it got removed.

Yes! I've always hated MotoX! That 360!? more like a tweaked backflip, and i think they even called it a flatspin. Shit is so boring.

i love surfing and i surf alot... but i have to agree with you. it's pretty boring. i can't believe they ousted wakeboarding. how retarded. now they have rally???? what is this, fucking speedvision?? soooo lame. maybe danny way will get a little more exposure. he really needs it. what the fuck, xgames are so corporate now, it's not even about the sports anymore. i'll bet you anything that if travis pastrana could wake board that it would be the flagship event. fuck espn and the horse that it rode in on.
All times are Eastern (-5)
