Anyone watching the Xgames?
The rally car racing was cool, and the skateboarding is great.

No, sadly Dinner Plain has terrible TV, you would think that a resort village that caters for action sports would pipe Fuel TV and the like to homes over winter.

I know it is possible, it just seems those in charge have NFI.  mad

I dont know the skaters name, but I tried to find a video and couldnt… but some skater did a huge BVS180 kickflip down about 20 stairs and seriously tweaked his ankle.
It was on an ESPN injury report I saw.

Ryan Sheckler broke his ankle. I believe this is the video:

That’s heavy, looks like his ankle took a lot of impact.
