X Games Update!
Written by: Simon Tabron
I’m finally back home after the craziness of the X Games.
Vert had a new venue this year, the Nokia theater, and it made a great stage for a wild contest.
I got worried when I saw the list for my Elimination round – a bunch of serious bad-asses – I was worried I wasn’t gonna make it. I needn’t have worried though as I made the final pretty easily.
The big show is always nerve-racking and I was feeling pretty exhausted after four 30 second long runs in prelims then four more in finals. I held it together pretty well though and, as the session clock ran out, I was tied for 2nd place. PHEW!!!!! Job done for another year!!!!!
Back to the ramp today, time to get ready for Portland Dew Tour in 10 days!!!
Thanks to everyone at Rockstar for all of the support!!!!
