X-Games Day 4


*click*

Today was the 4th and final day of the X-Games. I hung out around the house in the early morning and watched the Skateboard Big Air on TV, I was in no hurry this morning. I am sooo sore after the last 3 days of these events. I can only imagine what you would feel like if you were competing everyday. On to Big Air.

This event was nuts. I have a few pics from it and I actually remembered my digi camera. Honorable mention goes to Morgan Wade for doing a Sheep Hills 360 over the jump. He landed kicked out and pulled it. It was wild. The finishings were:

3rd - Allan Cooke - X-up Flip and an air. He crashed trying to double whip the jump on his next 2 tries.

2nd - Chad Kagy - Flip Double whip to sketchy seat landing. He was able to get his feet back on in time to air the giant quarter and do a double whip air.

1st - Kevin Robinson - Tuck No-hand Flip, Tuck No-hand Flair at about 15 feet. On Kevins last run he did the same main jump and tried to double flair the huge quarter it was nuts.

After all was said and done, K-Rob and Kagy went back to the top of the jump and rolled in for double teamed flips. K-Rob over the 50 footer, Kagy over the 70 footer.
