Set the TIVO kids...

X games step up and freestyle is on This weekend...

I hear Pastrana has perfected a super man seat grab while doing a back flip.

That sounds insane.

VForcedave · August 04, 2006, 08:21:21 AM

I think he is going to try and pull off the double backflip. I saw it in slow motion in a Sports Illistrated my son gets for kids. 2 complete revolutions and still lives.

Fox17 · August 04, 2006, 11:33:57 AM

he (suposedly) has both the superman backflip and double backflip. Im definately gonna be watchin it. when is all the motox stuff? we are goin ridin tonight. i guess ill set the thing to record.

53yfz450 · August 04, 2006, 09:51:49 PM

Alba450 · August 04, 2006, 10:44:35 PM

Pastrana just did a awsome backflip and he was extened INFRONT of the bars. He got a 91.20...rd Place...Thats a bunch of bull S*** Im telling you its all set-up

Alba450 · August 04, 2006, 10:46:42 PM

It looks like Pastrana is putting on extra gear for his double backflip.

Alba450 · August 04, 2006, 10:52:59 PM

NOTE: Pastrana wants the launch ramp 5FT back. Dang This guy is going ALL-THE-WAY

Hondarider22 · August 04, 2006, 11:07:07 PM

Thrumud · August 04, 2006, 11:15:36 PM

Hondarider22 · August 04, 2006, 11:16:48 PM

i give him props though, THAT WAS SICK!

#74 crf250r · August 04, 2006, 11:18:06 PM

pastrana landed the double back flip that was crazy, everyone pulled off some good tricks but pastrana is awsome he really steped up.

RAD 450r · August 04, 2006, 11:20:43 PM

Pastrana is awesome, hes my new hero man, idk who is the idiot judge that didnt give him a 100, he got like a 98. something. I mean what more could u ask for? He looked like a scare-crow though with that plaid jersey

Fox17 · August 04, 2006, 11:23:32 PM

dont be hatin the plad jersey.

the judge that didnt give him a 100 needs to have his head cut off. he is a few bricks shy of a house. he needs to DIE!!!!!

yfz450man · August 04, 2006, 11:24:09 PM

Totally nuts! All of them have some serious khahuna's, but Pastrana always seems to come up bigger than everyone else. Awesome, glad I got to see it live....

Alba450 · August 04, 2006, 11:57:12 PM

Congrats to Pastrana on the Backflip 2X...................The guys has "MUCHO GRANDE COJHONES...(I think you spell it like that)

arod · August 05, 2006, 02:43:24 AM

went to a sports bar with some friends tonight. when i walk in i instantly told the manager to put on x games at our table. so he does, everyone around me was like 'dude what are you watching?' after a brief explanation everybody was up to speed including all the people sitting around me that overheard me, they all got into it. when it was TP last run i told everybody he was going to attempt the double back flip and win, they looked at me like 'your kidding right?'. sure enough TP lands it! all these people freaked out!!! i have to say that was the most awesome aerial display on a motorcycle ever, i would love to see who or what trick will top that.

RacerX5 · August 05, 2006, 06:04:12 AM

Travis is the man!!!!!! hes insane!!!!!

UncleRico · August 05, 2006, 11:48:57 AM

Just when I thought freestyle was played out, and that it couldn't get any more exciting, TP comes up with this insanity.

I just can't imagine the BALLZ that it takes to even attempt something like that, let alone land it?

That was awesome!

>:(I'm going to rent a welder and rip the sheet metal off my neighbors shed to build a kicker ramp today.

Fox17 · August 05, 2006, 02:57:57 PM

great idea.

SWFRider · August 05, 2006, 03:42:19 PM

UncleRico · August 05, 2006, 11:12:11 PM

Fox..

I just like giving you a hard time.

Hell, I'd take any of the quads...Suzuki, Yamaha, Honda...you might even be able to get me on the Kawasaki 450 once it comes out.

Peace Out
Uncle Rico

Fox17 · August 05, 2006, 11:30:18 PM

i want travis too win, i want him to win all four events.

UncleRico · August 06, 2006, 03:44:22 PM

I can't believe TEAM YAMAHA pitted early. Who's running that Factory team?

Honda smoked the pit stop.

Amazing race.

Score one for the O G's.....Jeff Ward - 45 years old.

ScooterB · August 06, 2006, 04:14:59 PM

Pretty intense last 2 laps

Fox17 · August 06, 2006, 04:27:34 PM

that really sucks. mc's stupid bike broke. what kind of gas tank was that? i will never buy one of those!

Fox17 · August 06, 2006, 09:47:59 PM

ok travis pulled off a double backflip, won the rally (9 stages of brutal driving), put 2 of the best freestyle runs ive ever seen (1 in prelims and 1 in the main thing) then trips and falls and cant ride any more. that is screwed up. he can do anything he wants to on a bike or in a car but he cant walk. anyway congrats to pastrana. he did an excellent job. way to go.

i think this was the best x-games i ever seen. all the stuff was awesome.

Grassman68 · August 07, 2006, 06:31:46 PM

Foam pits + large ones = Double back flip??? Those guys are just sick!!!!!!!!

KXKID · August 07, 2006, 08:12:02 PM

i cant belive that travis did the double backflip
