X-Games Anyone?

X-Games 15 starts Thursday at 6pm PST on ESPN

I have already reserved the TV for the next 4 days and will be planted front and center for the start. This year should be awesome, I like the FMX sports the most. Step up is cool, but "best trick" is my favorite. Kyle Loza will be going for his 3rd gold medal with a trick called "kiss of death". I did read that 2 other riders are planning a forward flip for best trick, no one has landed one in competition yet. I have been a fan since the day Mike Metzger landed his first 80' backflip 5-6 years ago which was unbeliveable. Then last year Travis Pastrana did a double backflip to win the gold.

My son has run BMX freestyle at Woodward East for some years now. For those who know about the X-Games would know what Woodward is.
