I still have a hard time believing people watch the x games.

What's not to like, the cute girls or the people careening down a mountain for your entertainment?

Post by: pissclams on January 31, 2011, 08:26:50 AM: sledding would be a great event. could have two divisions: first one could be those weird sleds with metal rails, second could be the cheap plastic sled that you couldn't steer.

another good event would be the run where you run on the street and see how long you can slide for while standing up.

could transfer over to summer X with socks on a gym floor as well

Post by: pissclams on January 31, 2011, 08:50:21 AM: yup good idea with the winter x/summer x combo event. would definitely attract more competitors since they could compete 2x a year and win more X medals/trophs than 1x per year event competitors.

i wonder if the same guys would win the trophs in the winter X as won in the summer X?
