Stunting at X-games?

I was just watchin some of the crazy **** these guys pull off, and then wondering about stunting getting bigger with more shows and events. Is there any possibly an stunt X-games event in the years to come?

**** they put rally dirt racing in there, why not a stunt comp?

Who knows? I think the only reason that rally **** got in was cause of Pastrana.

Re: Stunting at X-games?

were ballerinas on motorcycles....theres nothing extreme about stunt riding, well except that its extremely expensive and extremely boring to watch when put in the same forum as dudes doing double back flips over 80 foot gaps....flatland bicycles didnt survive at x games and neither will stunt riding. x games is NOT the symbol of make or break for stunting. xdl is moving forward just fine. **** the x games.

i completely agree...circles are baller and all but boring after a rotation or two...the excting aspect of stunting is when its on the streets...and thats not really what they are about lol...

but who cares lets just ride
