3D should be in the X Games.

That double back flip was insane.

In the BMX street comp today, some guy launched a transition, rotated 180 and landed on another transition backwards.

BMX double flair on the vert ramp.

yeah the double flair was insane, except it was pretty much just a double backflip.

I watched it a little whilst bar hopping last night. Buuuut, my mind was a little to preoccupied to really devote any amount of attention to it. And yes, that double back flip was the sh*t.

I travelled with Travis on an extreme tour called the gravity games. He is a great guy to hang around.

I watched some of it, last night a freakin EATING contest came on, and they acted as if it was the sh*t! If they make a big deal about eating then freestyle could definintly make it to ESPN. When i saw pastrana land the double backflip me and friend went APE!!! It was BADASS!!!

Travis will win the freestyle. With Adams and Twitch out I think it will be no problem for him. Now the Supermoto If he gets in the top ten I will be impressed. He has been racing supermoto all year against many of the guys that are in X. It takes more than x-large ball bearings to go fast on pavement. All about throttle control. Travis has that it just needs to be WFO for him to be happy!! At least there is something good on the tube for a change! Why can't we get coverage of a flying event like the hot dog boys?? World darts??? Lawnmower racing??? Somethings got to give. Jason
