Something that hasn't been mentioned: the X Games "Play by play" guys are so incredible. They really, really love snowboarding
I wish there was a little bit more description of what some of the base terms mean. So an average X games fan like myself can start watching without asking "wtf is a rodeo?" every 30 seconds. Maybe I should go back in time and ask my 3rd grade self who played Tony Hawk pro skater all day what it means. But yes, they do an excellent job of getting the audience pumped up.
Just wish Sal Masekela was still reporting. That guy, man.
