X games are starting at nine tonight eastern time. I'm into this stuff.

i went last year it was amazing

I am waitng until it comes to philli again then I will go. this yer it is in carson california and I'm not going to spend 400 dollors on flight tickets. Do you do any extreme sports?

yea i went to the philly one also it was way too hot that year lol but ryan nyquist was amazing but broke his sproket on the spine

Yeah I like the park stuff because it's more creative. It's amazing how things have prgressed. a few years ago backflips in motoX were the best thing they could do. now they do backflip combos and 360s. I used to skate but it got way to competive and complex. I'm into extreme scootering now. I can do tailwhips, 360s and grinds. I think of it as a combination of BMX and skateboarding. It's only a matter of time until it's in the X games. I have a little 14 second vid I whiped up in 5 minutes bcause my friend didn't believe me. no whips or 360s too hot out.

DOUBLE BACKFLIP YEAAAAAAAAAA

I can't believe that 11 year old. shuvit boardslide shuvit.

that was awesome i saw alittle of that alot og young athletes are there this year thats cool

Ryan sheckler got 2nd yay. I saw some show on MTV and he said he bought his dads BMW. he was only 14 at the time.

they should have a mini ramp in the X games for Bam to rip up.

miniramps are a waist of space, and bam is a joke. he couldn't skate with Danny Way, Pierre Luc, Burnquist, or Mac if his life depended on it. Theres no way in hell you could even put him on the same level with them or any other skater at the xgames, lol. if you want a real event, try skateboard vert

Anyone here ever been to Rye Airfield? I can finaly land fakie in their vert, still trying to get the fakie 3 on the other side though, but damn is it hard to keep the momentum going to the second pump (especially since I havn't mastered landing fakie).

I used to skate. I could kickflip and do some grinds. all my friends got really good and I mean really good fast. one of them can do pop ollie 360 flips. do you know why most skateparks don't like or allow scooters? because where I go there is allways some kid who says "what are you doing here with one of those. they are so stupid."

Heh, if I had to guess it'd be that they somehow damadge the ramps (like bikes do), or some insurance thing. Yea, I got my 3 flip about a year after I started skating every day. The only real hard thing about the trick is keeping the board under you. I have a tendency to have the board land about a foot infront of me, but i've just learned how to jump forwards with the board.

I used to skate, but these days my main out-door hobby is juggling. Why out-door? Two words: fire clubs. I'm getting the hang of 'em now. Haven't burned myself in ages

Phht, doesn't sound that hard... lets see you do it while ideling on a unicicle... on a tightrope... over a pool filled with kerosine! Yea, then talk

Don't forget the 16 flaming chainsaws.
