Not sure if it was posted before, but wakeboarding has been eliminated from the x-games this year for bugetairy reasons.
 
Didnt even notice, but im pissed now. Totally forgot about wakeboarding. xgames are fucking up, fuck freestyle motox.
 
fuck moto step up that shit is gayer then a coldsore on ur lips after sicking a dick

not that i do it would just suck
 
they had a winch tow rail jam for wakeboarding and wakeskating in the parking lot. it didnt get air time on tv but you could watch it for free if you were there
 
its weird how much the focus of the X-Games has shifted from like barefoot waterskiing behind a seaplane and bungee jumping to skateboarding/bmx/rollerblading and now they're all about motocross in all forms. They're a ratings machine, thats for sure.
 
no kidding! seriously, how many backflip variations can you watch before you die of boredom....
 
ya like rory bushfield does a switch double back and gets know media at all lik whats up with that i think next year they need to pull out something crazy to keep it in the games like a 1440,1620, or double frontflip
 
why would they drop inline, as its most likely one of the top courses. if they actually had a decent park, then it would more exciting.

plus they added rally cars, which is total weaksauce.

oldschool xgames were the best, all about ice and speed climbing, and street luge and shit, it was all baller
 
Shit you're getting pissed now? I bet none of you remember the shovel racing they had. That was the craziest shit I've ever watched and was very sad when it got removed.
 
wow i cant believe wakeboardings gone. thats sooo gay. probly my 2nd fav event. next to skate big air.
 
just think now they have more room for the real fucking bullshit sports like RALLY, yeah thats got xgames written all over it, oh wait, never mind, its just more bullshit so people can get more medals, like danny way, this blows
 
don't forget 'Modified' shovel racing... i still shed a tear

and street luge was pretty intense to watch too.. cut!
 
fuck the x games. they used to be cool when they actually cared about the sprots. now they just want to get the moneymaking people.they also used to have downhill bmx bike racing i think.pretty soon theyll drop street skaing. cuz they dont even bother to show it anyways.
 
fuck the xgames, it was never about the sports

i went to it once when it was in phili and watched some amazing inline vert and bmx but the rest of the shit sucked.
 
Yes! I've always hated MotoX! That 360!? more like a tweaked backflip, and i think they even called it a flatspin. Shit is so boring.
 
i love surfing and i surf alot... but i have to agree with you. it's pretty boring. i can't believe they ousted wakeboarding. how retarded. now they have rally???? what is this, fucking speedvision?? soooo lame. maybe danny way will get a little more exposure. he really needs it. what the fuck, xgames are so corporate now, it's not even about the sports anymore. i'll bet you anything that if travis pastrana could wake board that it would be the flagship event. fuck espn and the horse that it rode in on.
