Default X games

Anyone catch Danny Way's fall tonight? It was brutal but not nearly as bad as last years dramatic fall! Bob Burnquist has balls the size of Toledo. He won with the most ridiculous trick. Backside 360 landing backwards. The crowd was stunned... they didn't know what to make of it, but if you ever skated you'd know that this was INSANE.

Also, I thought I heard them say the all new WRX 265 hp tonight? Maybe I heard wrong?!

Loza's trick was so crazy. It was like two insane moves in one.

I guess that Ralliant or whatever the hell it is... isn't so special anymore.

Bob's trick was insane, people didn't seem to react at all when he landed it. Nice to see some older guys (Danny,Bob) holding it down.

I thought that was a mistake about the WRX, no? 265hp sounds nice to me!

I will definitely watch on Sunday. I want to see how the 08' does. I assume there will be an 08' STI in this, right?

I am still trying to imagine how the hell Bob B pulled that off.

Bob B's trick was awesome... but Danny Way coming back after that fall just took it all for me... I forget who kept doing the back flip over the gap, that was amazing.. as well has the 360 ollie(no hands!) over the gap... wow.... also caught some of the Moto-x with the guy doing the double back flip... yikes!

Did catch the EVO flip. I wonder if its on youtube yet?

I want to know how much they spent to make that super park. That thing was incredible.

I was recording back and forth from the superpark. The guy in the very first 08 was driving like a champ. Almost too tail happy IMO. I think he was from the U.K. Possibly the best driving outta the whole thing. It was cool that the father and son team got out there.

Anyone know if any of these people are members?
