Travis's double flip clip still gives me chills with how insane the crowd is even before he goes off.

Yeah when Josh Sheehan landed the triple, that was just ridiculous I really don't want to see anybody try that again, hitting a ramp at nearly 60 miles an hour being probably 70 something feet in the air, I'm glad Josh did it because he landed it and I'm glad no one else has tried it, one of the few tricks I feel that way about because, well yeah.. anyways, unreal!

The stuff they're doing now is just insane to me. That fact that nearly all of these pull double backflips like its part of basic training now

It's so overwhelming that within the space of a couple of years the backflip went from the most electrifying move to a common move in everybody's arsenal

Same... Travis is the only pro-race driver I've ever met that I've struggled to talk to... He's been successful at everything... He has wins in some form or facet in pretty much every form of motorsport except off road trucks and formula cars... Dude is one of the most talented people with a motor under him ever... Period... He's driven everything: Mx, Sx, FMx, WRX, WRC, Nascar... Dude has done fuckin' everything.

To me I've always seen Travis pastrana as the hero of motocross. Even watching him on his shows and doing things off the bikes, the guy had zero fear and was amazing to watch

I mostly watched X Games as a kid for the skateboarding but always got so excited when a Travis Pastrana run was coming up

14:37 even his bike is proud of him

Man xgames in the 2000s was the best ! It just doesn't have the same feel today ,, seats are empty! ,, before social media took over ! Before everyone was on their phones , you just lived in the moment

Travis after his double:"I hope I never do it again" *ff 10 years*: "yeah I think I'll go for a triple"

The crowds now vs before is just sad

Right when it was ONLY in Cali at staples inside especially in the early days

That is why Travis Pastrana is my idol and hero. So is my father, but Travis is hands down the most amazing human being alive. The significance of what he did, then to apologize to his mom for worrying her and putting her through that. Its just what i respect. How you treat animals and your mom. This guy is the pinnacle of what i consider to be a truly awesome human being.

Travis is a freaking madman !!! That double will always be the peak of the sport! The energy in that building is insane!

Lands a double backflip “I’m sorry mom” haha such a LEGEND

I still get goosebumps watching Metz doing those back to back backflips

Being in the staple center that night was a feeling I’ll never forget. Everyone collectively holding their breaths as he went off the lip and when he landed the walls shook, I was just about in tears of excitement watching my hero pull that. 13 years of ago at that time and still remember it like it was yesterday. Forever the 🐐 199🙌🏻

Let's give some credit to Carey Hart. He's the one that showed the fmx backflip was possible. He lit the fire. And now, if you "only" do a backflip, something must have went wrong.

Theres so much nostalgia watching this on cable tv

Wow the energy of the 2003 X Games was so different. I started watching in like 2008 and I was still a kid. I had no idea how crazy it was then.

When Mike Metzger hit those backflips it was like time stood still for me as a kid.

15:50 to 16:00 is one of the greatest camera shots in the history of sports. Iconic.

Amazing memories ❤️ never forget Metzger’s “double” backflip, and Pastrana’s double. The world was watching Travis that night. Chills.

That trick chuck did has to be the hardest trick ever. Nobody even does that trick ever. Everyone is afraid of it.

David Rinaldo just brought it back this year for best trick and kinda added his own style to it. Was really cool to see someone else busting that trick out.

I was so big into motor x and the video games with it, THP back in the early 2000’s

I had a lunchbox of travis pastrana sending that double backflip as a kid, jesus that was a nostalgia trip

It’s wild how much milder the crowds have gotten over the years.. wish the energy would come back again!! So rad. I remember growing up watching those earlier x games!

I miss the old days of the x games in the staples center. It doesn’t have the same energy in the big stadium.

Crazy how most of these tricks are common now

Travis's double backflip is iconic

7:53 I think he ment front flip lol

Tp is the goat of all sportsmen imo. Weapon

We Love You, Chuck Carothers!

Killer mix, Rock On!

I still remember staying up late to see Travis go for the double and fell asleep during the comp. I woke up right as Travis was hitting the ramp. It was like a dream. I don't think I slept at all the rest of the night. Had to watch it a hundred times just rewinding

The standing "OHHHHHHHHHH!!" From both casters when Travis landed. You knew that was a moment in world history right there. closest thing to Modern day Evil knieval.

Great tricks and clips, but Carey Hart coming back after his injury and nailing the back flip is one of my favorite moments.

X games was so special back in the day when it was just in Cali at staples now it feels empty

Amazing! Insane! Fabulous....! Much much respect!!!

04 step up battle was awesome remember watching it live!

Dang this was sick!

I remember watching Travis do the double live. It was absolutely insane!

We Missed You, Chuck Carothers!

that first front flip was cooler then a normal front flip lol. travis double was the best i witnessed live tho

Travis when he tired to do the mulisha twist was iconic

Gotta say, I teared up on Mike Metzgers run. A very special run for sure.

To this day I'm upset that Pastrana didn't get a perfect 100 for the Double Backflip that night LOL It was literally the best moment in X Games history, hands down 💯💯

I remember when you would go get your favorite dirt bike magazine & then rent the best video & then get home and play Jeremy McGrath Supercross 98 with your buddies. Those were the times! 🎧😁🤟

Chuck Carothers, You Did It!

best part Rinaldo screaming 5:09

Travis=🐐

Freestyle in the coliseum was elite

the Carolla is way under rated

Travis is the Real Goat 🐐 For ever

I remember seeing Mike Metzgers' double back flip live...I'm glad he did that in Philadelphia

Oh my god He on xgames bruhh

Pastrana was obviously a shoe-in for multiple entries in this video, but when I saw it in my subs my first thought was "Mike Metzger, back to back flips". I'm glad you agree! Is it just me, or has the popularity of these events really dropped off from those 'glory days'?

For sure. 03-06 was the best. Mulisha and pastrana. Riders today are amazing but meh.

Pastrana es legendario, fue un antes y un después desde su doble backflip en los xgames

Firts Dobel backflip from TRAVIS in X games...., I remember this moment

Metzger was always my favorite guy in FMX growing up

Where did the crowd go? Sad seeing those empty stands.

I seen this moment 10 years ago and now

Man, moto used to be the biggest sport at the X Games. Those were the days. I honestly think it has just reached a point where the likelihood of serious injury or death is so high, it doesn't have the same mass appeal it use to.

If you went back in time when Metzger did the double and told him that someone would do a rock solid backflip do you think he would believe you

all the best tricks were done on 2 strokes....2 stroke is king

I'll never do it again,but It was time,i have that skill ,so did it again.

Travis Pastrana the king of motocross freestyle 👍🥰

love moto cross

2:00 was the opening backflip monumental or something? (The gap length?) Because I'm not seeing any other reason that average run is in this vid. And the 360 was done earlier, so I'm confused

Вот это мастерство!

At 4:00 deacon knows he's gonna loose i still remember that night even nate adams was 2 place beat him too

So technically, Chuck did FMX's first-ever body varial type trick in 2004

Who remembers Carey Hart's backflip bail

there's not a single drop of sanity in these guys blood, that's for sure

Kyle Loza is my favorite of all time❤️

David freaking gnarly

No deegan 360? Ahh the good ole days when they actually promoted Xgames....

Jamais on aurait réussit à faire sa avec no y'z des années 80 mais aujourd'hui elle sont tellement bien équilibré et marche plus fort aussi

Diana is gorgeous ❤️😊

Lot of times the commentators called the backflip the front flip, and vice versa. lol

Travis Pastrana is the greatest of all time

Me hubiera gustado que se incluyera a Kyle Loza en este vídeo.

Lets be honest. The most popular guy and most memoriable is travis. If you say mx you think of travis

I wouldve brought up Lusk
