Anyone else see the finals last night? I'm not a skater but holy shit that was awesome! If you dig skating definitely check out a rerun. Everyone agreed that it was one of the sickest runs they had ever seen. It was really cool too cause the guy who won was the last to go and had been cheering on the other guys all day. The dude was possessed!

 

The X-Games are the greatest!!! I'm not a skater either but it is so much fun to watch.

My friend got 2nd Place this year on Inline street in the X-Games and another guy I know got 3rd place. My friends always compete in the X-Games.

 

im kinda a skater i can do some tricks,i can kinda grind but i dont have enough heart to learn new triks, but its fun to go to the skate park

 

yes, quite incredible - skating and rollerblading has come quite a long way. makes me want to go out and get a board, but not many places around here to do that. ok, so I'll come out to the coast and skate on venice beach!

well dammit, when I was there..uhmmm uhmmm uhmmmm ok crap I'm showing my age even though I aint that old!

So who won?
IMO the X-games a actually a piece of cake compared to what pro street skaters do on an everyday basis.
Skateboarders will probably remember the Jeremy Wray gap between two giant cylindric oil reservoirs... that was hardcore!

 

Here's Tony Hawk's review and a link to the full article.

"I think these people came to see a show and they got to see way more than they ever expected. I think that Bob's run was the best vert run we've ever seen. It's insane I mean almost any trick he did, I'd say half his tricks, would be contenders for the Best Trick competition." - Tony.
