ok, if you don't watch any other event in the Xgames, you have to watch the skateboard "best trick" event. I'm sure ESPN will be showing this one over and over and over this week. Its just a HUGE halfpipe in the middle of Stapes Center with a bunch of the best skateboarders trying to throw unfuckinbelieveable tricks. At one point Tony Hawk threw a 540 varial heelflip, and i thought that was going to be his big trick. with about 7 minutes to go the other riders start to throw the 900. Tony had said before the event that he would most likely NOT try to throw the 900. For the last 5 minutes all you watch is guys bailing on huge tricks and trying and trying to get the 900. Then Tony trys. He bails on a 900 attempt, but the crowd is so dumbfounded that he threw for it that they just go crazy. So at this point you know he's gotta pull it. With 14 seconds left in the competition he nails the 900 and wins the event. All i can say is "GAWD DAMN"!!
