So The X-Games are back and what an exciting first night. Danny Way on Big Air was insane. The guy breaks his foot on his first run or so and continues with the rest of his runs. He almost got first but Bob Burnquist pulls of an insane fakie 360. Here is footage of Danny Ways crash and his runs after the crash.

However, in Motocross best trick I was disapointed that the front flip was not thrown down but it was still a good competition.

I am looking forward to seeing BMX big air to see what ridiculous event might happen like last night.

Eh, I think they will keep big air around. Just goes to show that skateboarders are arguably the best athletes in the world.

I don't think skateboarders are the best athletes in the world. That is retarded. They are so specialized in their abilities. Every top athlete in a sport is going to be good at different things.

It's hard for me to watch big air. It's so sick but so dangerous. When somebody dies it'll get banned, though in many ways I think it'd up to the skaters. On a larger level X Games can easily decide to get rid of the event if its too dangerous but nobody can really stop this kind of thing from finding its own independent competition.

Kyle Loza's Electric Doom > every other MotoX event.

But seeing Way/Brown/Burnquist go consecutively was the best moment of the whole games.
