Metzger got hurt a couple of weeks ago (concussion and wrist injury) doing one of the sickest tricks out there, the motocross backflip with a heel-click. Someone did it yesterday. Deegan did a sick 360, which Pastrana later tried and wiped out...but got back on and landed a perfect one, after time had expired - he did it for the fans.
Nyquist tore it up on the bike dirt freestyle.
Glad to see the X Games getting bigger and bigger.
Now the Olympics even want to add some of the X sports.
As Tony Hawk said "The Olympics need the X Games more than the X Games need the Olympics."

I am a wimp and can't stand watching them fall off their bikes and twist ankles and cracked skulls and... I don't know why I watch football either.. but anyway.

Awesome tricks and wipeouts as usual.

I watched the replay last night! Totally sick! Pastrana is fun to watch. I went to the FMX event here Aug 2nd. Nate Adams won, he was the only one to do a back flip...eveidentally they had made a pact not to do the backflip and he broke it....I told the guy next to me "if I bought this ticket came down here and didn't get to see a backflip I would have been PISSED!" It was a great time!

I used to ride my bmx all the time but I haven't in the last few years and now I'm fat. I really need to start riding again. I would wath the X Games but I don't have cable. Can someone let me know if Dave Voelker is riding this year and if he is how he's doing?

You'll be missed.
I watch it every night, I love it, and I'm not exactly in the age-demo that it's targeted for, thats for sure. But, hey, it is entertaining, and thats the bottom line. I think those guys deserve a lot more respect as athletes than say golfers.

I agree.
But in football you really don't see the guys get injured. Something happens, and then they are on the ground.
