Oh my gosh...my husband and I are completely HOOKED on the X Games! It is amazing what those guys can do on motorbikes, regular bikes, and skateboards! Some of it I swear defies gravity and most laws of physics!
I don't know any of their names, don't know anything about the sports, but I cannot stop watching them do their tricks!!!
Last night, a skateboarder fell 50 feet off the top of the ramp...and walked away!
These dudes are CRAZY!

I don't normally watch that stuff either but i watched the Big Air competion, and now i am hooked. The guy that fell was Jake Brown, he walked away with no broken bones. He has a bruised lung and liver! Its on Abc today starting at 11am i think if anyone is interested.

There is something completely insane about having to take the elevator up to the top floor of a building in order to get to the top of the ramp with your bike. Can you imagine having that kind of nerve?

Well Jake Brown did have a broken bone, but it was only his wrist so nothing too serious.:thumbsup:

Our DS's are dirtbike junkies. The younger one wants to race and be a trick rider when he gets better. I cringe at the thought. They have been watching this for the past few days and love, love, love this. I too have found myself watching with curosity wondering how they do this stuff, especially the mega ramp. The thought of going that far that fast on a teeny tiny skateboard is beyond me. But they are great.
