Stunting In X-games
Re: Stunting In X-games
the fun is only removed for moto-x and stunting when it enters x-games if you think of it has removing the fun. if you love to ride ur bike then do it for the love of riding even if your doing an x-games point scoring run jut think of it as just having fun on ur motorcycle. i don't want any rider to lose the love of riding i want to see riders who love to ride and don't care weather they win or not. pastrana, deegan, metzger they all ride for the fun of riding even in comp.

Re: Stunting In X-games
Most of the famous riders I've met seem to be enjoying what they do immensely. There's this "thriving under pressure" thing they have going, where they seem to all have a wire-tight atmosphere around them. Very few are truly mellow during qualifying, or during a race day. Don't hang with them otherwise usually, but it'd be cool to do a day off type piece.
Of course, when you're talking to someone who is likely to write down what you say, ya probably get a little bit cautious about complaining.
I'm not one of *those* journalists, but I totally understand the mistrust exists for self preservation purposes. So i can't say I really 'know" any celebrity riders, despite having spent many hours trying to think up good questions to ask them, and really listening to their answers.
It's my opinion that the FMX fellas especially love competeing.

Re: Stunting In X-games
What about a different show... seperate from x-games... cause I dont see big simularities with x-games and Stunting... but I'd be happy about a show for itself all together
