Easily the gnarliest sport ever invented. The amount of courage you have to have to front flip over 100 feet with hundreds of pounds underneath you is wild. Props to these dudes.

No doubt. That was a wild flip to throw. Honestly just jumping a mx bike is nuts. But to do what these guys do is insane.

The fact that Bink got his body back over the bike was absolutely f*cking incredible! Dodge a massive bullet

Taka doesnt have the best tricks or most variations but that man lands perfectly countless times nobody lands their tricks on a consistent basis better than Taka does hes so smooth with every single landing no matter the difficulty of the trick

This beautiful sport needs more support. I really don’t want to see it die off from a lack of views and fans. Even if the bar can’t get any higher I’ll always love the sport and the community around it. It’s such a badass dance in the face of death and I’m curious as to why the viewership has gotten as low as it has. Everyone comment and subscribe and like for the love of freestyle moto

it will get harder. i predict in 10 years they will be on 500cc 2 strokes, or some insane electric bikes pulling tripple back flips. shame that the marketing around this event isn't near the same standard as the athletes themselves

I think the problem is that it’s kind of hit the ceiling at least now. The last 10 or so years it’s either a double backflip or a front flip that wins

Honestly it's only because there aren't enough personalities anymore. I don't think it is too dull (even though it is a little dull still, for the same reason), but there isn't really a face anymore. The only person that might get recognized by someone not a hard-core fan (or Japanese if it's Taka) is Jacko Strong, and that's because of Brian Deegan, the leader of the Metal Mulisha, one of the groups that started this sport. When this first kicked off at X Games in 99, everyone in it was a known commodity. Anyone that liked this kind of sport KNEW who these people were. And the ATHLETES knew that too, so they worked with that as much as possible, played the roles WWE style as much as they wanted to. You had people like the Godfather Mike Metzger, The Destroyer Nate Adams, Cowboy Kenny Bartram, riders from the Metal Mulisha like Jeremy Twitch Stenberg, Todd Potter, and of course Deegan, and so many others. And then of course.....you have Travis Pastrana. Travis Pastrana is the Albert Einstein of this sport. The Gordan Murray. The Michael Jordan AND Jackson. You see where I'm going with this 🤣 he was the personality AND the innovator. He was the wonderkid. He is the reason, even to this day, that FMX is what it is. And that's also part of the problem. He's STILL that. He still is the person doing that, because not really anyone else is taking up that mantle. Some people are for other sports, like Ryan Williams for BMX, or Moto Shibata for skateboarding. But no one is really taking that "face of the sport" mantle here in FMX and it sucks. Badly

Watching moto x the last 2 years after not paying much attention since Pastrana and Nate Adams. Just completely baffled. I remember the days of if you had a regular plain single back flip you had a top 3. Now, no double back flip or front flip, no podium.

Progression has come along way 4 sure! If a guy just throws a single backflip and no combo it's a throw away run. Also you heard the commentators mention it without a double backflip and or Frontflip your not cracking the top 2

Freestyle motocross riders are the most underpaid athletes in the world. High air acrobatics on a 200 lb machine is way more entertaining than watching someone throw a ball through a hoop.

absolutely great performance by all riders!

Ackerman threw down almost as crazy as Sherwood would. The kid RIPS.

I haven't watched xgames in a minute and everyone busting double flips and front flips with ease. 😬

Can you please make it best of 2 runs? Tired of seeing them send one run and straight jumping the second. It would also make them commit to front flips or leave them out.

I love this sport but i miss them performing in front of a full crowd for the x games. Its just not the same without the roar of the crowd. Not that they arent amazing because they are but when did moto x riders start trashing runs once in first place? If i had paid to see them i would be disappointed by them not giving it everything. Like i am when football players take a knee for the last 2 minutes of a game.

Why don't the FMX guys get a jam session like the BMX guys and skateboarders? I believe they do for the whip contest but 1:45 sec runs it seems like they spend the majority of there time getting set up 4 there tricks. The commentators are always harping on that. Why not a 30 min jam session 2,min runs?

Wind is not kind to FMX.
