X Games 15

So the X Games may be a lot more mainstream than they once were, but it is still the same competition that gave us Tony Hawk’s 900, a 10-year-old skateboarding champion named Ryan Sheckler and hopefully someday the sport of aggressive watersliding. They start this weekend in LA, and will probably be all over espn and abc. For the schedule of events click here.

Winter X Games start this Thursday. If you are in Aspen make sure you catch Hannah Teter and Shaun White tearing it up on the snowboard. We are old enough here at Freshtoid to remember the ‘inaugural’ games back when Johnny Mosley was king and snow shovel riding was a sport. Look for big things out of this year’s games.
