Thank you X GAMES! Not only did you give athletes careers and take action sports to where it is now but you fueled an entire generation of kids to follow their passions. Regardless of what we’re doing now, the X GAMES literally helped raise a generation. Now we get to watch the next take it further than we ever imagined. 🤘
Amen to that! Dude i was 8 went tony hawk nailed that 900. I remember watching it on the edge of the couch literally shaking i was so anxious for it to finally happen and BOOM! He lands it and i jjst jumped and screamed YEEEEESSSSSSS!!! And then i cried while laughing its all my friends and i could talk about. Im so thankful for being a kid when i was.
@@jamesbower8245 I was ten in 1985 and I got my second bmx, but this one was good, a Raleigh super tuff burner, I love bmx, it may have broken many of my bones over the years but it was worth it.
Hope you catch some likes, you’re fishing
@@bradleymitchell3808 this is a year old. good one lol
Bob Burnquist's final run in the 2001 Vert Finals, is still to this day, the single greatest thing I have ever seen on a skateboard. Bob is my all time favorite. Watching that man on a skateboard is pure magic.
I think the greatest thing about the X-Games today is that it dosn´t matter who you are or where you come from....it only matters that you share the same passion, the same inspiration or just enjoi the same feeling. So please keep it up for at least 1000 more years!!
Wish you didn't eliminate Inline competitions, as well as not highlighting them in a 25th recap. Taig Khris double backflip, and basically every run the Yasutoko brothers ever put on could have been a nice add to anniversary
this is one of the best X-Games videos ever
I remember watching X-Games in the late 90s early 00s with my dad. He was a computer programmer who never stepped on a skateboard in his life.. but to my absolute delight, he was always excited and enthusiastic about seeing these beautiful moments with me.. We saw Tony Hawk's 900, Bob Burnquists 2001 miracle run, Travis Pastrana's double backflip... Im so grateful my dad shared these moments with me and now I have the memories to treasure. I miss him so much. He was a good father to me. To any fathers out there, please find something you and your kids can both love and celebrate together. 😁
that 900 of Tony Hawk still gave me goose bumps
That clink of the coping makes it even better
Tony touched
for me it was that Travis Pastrana double backflip never forget it and where i was when i watched it
Guys let's not forget the unsung heroes of X games: the camera staff . THOSE SHOTS ARE 🥇🔥🔥🔥
BRING BACK THE ROLLERBLADING...these cats in these days are GNARLICIOUS.
not a single mention of rollerblading on the whole video, no the yasutoko brothers no fabiola da silva, its like if the X games want to delete this sport , SAD
This is one of the most nostalgic things I have ever seen. I remember watching x games and metal melisha etc in the late 90s and early 2000s as a young teenager. This sparked my love for 2 wheels and the rest is history!. Thanks for upload, genuinely loved this one. So many sick memories.
Thanks for this awesome time-capsule X-games ! Would have loved to see the Yasutoko brothers ripping the vert on rollerblades tho..
Yeah they were HUGE back in the day!!!
One of the reasons dave mirra got so good is the fact that he had mat Hoffman, and the other slightly older riders who really took him under their wing while at the same time treating him as one of the lads and pushing him to do the very best he could, and showing him love and friendship because they admired his talent, the 90s were the golden age of bmx, from 2000 onwards the vibe of bmx changed, for some reason the competitive side of the competition riders seemed to spread through all the companies and the riders, and instead of everyone pushing each other and helping one another, they started to play mind games and try and put people's riding style or ability down and almost looking down on the riders who were coming up.
Glad I got to see it and be a part of it from 1983 onwards.
I remember being 7 years old when I saw my first X Games on TV. I'm now 30 and still watch the X Games!
34:22 That effortless snatching of the bug was impressive.
🤣🤣🤣 I I wonder if he did that on purpose or that was just his body language at a very lucky moment.
From the old school days to Mid school and beyond
I’ll always love BMX!
I remember back in the ln the mid 90s hearing about this thing called the x games, and they were actually behind the things I loved and did every single day, I was a skater in the 80s and in the late 80s I switched to bmx (freestyle, flatland Street) it was all one thing at the time,
I found that the x games were on one of the five terrestrial TV stations we had in the UK back then.
It was on twice a week, a one hour show of all the different events, well I programmed the VHS, put a tape in twice a week for six months and watched the bmx events and I found my heroes, dave mirra, matt Hoffman, Denis McCoy, Jay mirron, Simon tabron, Jamie bestwick etc etc, it was the best thing ever to watch dave mirra on the street course with my mates and then go out and ride and push each other to go further and get better, all because we were hyped at the things we watched the vert, street, and dirt bmx riders do, I had many many great years of riding bmx with friends.
Rip golden boy.
bring back rollerblading!!
Agreed aggressive inline needs a comeback
Best reaction ever for me was to Mitchie's 1260.... "KNIGHTS OF COLUMBUS!!!!!" - Also growing up watching x games, back in the day, like late 90s early 00's, you could miss a trick in a run and still podium. But that is part of the days gone by. Once you got your nyjah's and your yuto's and your shane oneills, etc, there is no room for error now. X games happening multiple times a year was the best change...I still watch replays from 2017, 18, 19 big air, park, street...god I love the x games.
Thank you guys for keeping action sports alive much respect from nz
I remember watching the first few x games with lumberjack events, BMX Racing and rock climbing AND surfing 🤦🏾♂️ I’m old 😂😂😂
Gary Ellis raced at the X Games?
Bmx racing was sick
@@XGames Blading is ready to return to the XGAMES. 2020 made people realize how fun it always was. And its progressed so much. There was a worldwide skate shortage. People wanna blade
@@Habeev07 I agree with you, but I don’t think these sports are going anywhere. Just like with rollerblading. It never went away, it just got more “core”.
Sal Masekela. What a legend. The X Games isn’t the same without him.
Thank you X Games. Watching them with my dad every summer is something I cherish to this day.
EPIC Compilation, really great job X Games for putting this together! Really Amazing Memories ,))
Its incomplete though. Blading needs to be represented.
i love this sport but i have missed all those great moments.....thanx to you onw i can now watch them all in one video and get my mind blown, goosebumps & unbelievable inspiration/motivation!!!! also nice to see the legends talk, they all seem very humble and positive!
The summer of 99 was the best year of my life ! Tony set the world on fire ! Inspired a whole generation to pick up a skateboard! Good times
I am truly grateful to have fully experienced the early 2000s era of X Games
Xgames is my favorite thing to look forward to in the summer for like the last 20 years
15 years later and theyre still scared rollerblading would might damage bmx and skateboarding industry.
One day soon blading will be back in the games.
This is crazy entertaining . I’d say give me more but this is huge. Big thanks.
What more would you want?
Man I still remember watching that vert best trick and tony kept trying the 900 and when he finally got it we all went nuts. Before the internet was a fun time.😢
25 Years of X Games and no Inline Skating in it...
Love the Deegan-Pastrana rivalry. Both great guys who helped make Freestyle Motocross what it is.
Sickest edit I’ve seen from X Games in a long time
The best 45min ever uploaded to UA-cam !!!
I will never forget Bobs pefect Vert Run.....gives me chills everytime!
Bring back inline skating!
Had to watch that double back flip by Pastrana a few times. Gave me the chills. It looks like his head touches the ceiling!!
This was so cool!! I could’ve watched it for 3 hours!!!
Core memories revitalised - thanks X-Games!
You guys fueled my childhood. Thank you
Congratulations X GAMES see much more years and all the success in the world.
Greetings from Mexico.
DEAR XGAMES youtube authoritative manager... Please Voice this & bring back Sal Masekala to X Games.. this guys made the commentary so much better!!!!
Woah justin sal muskela is retired back a year ago man
Sal and Blading
The most memorable ever!!
Thx x games for delivering awesome action i love the best tricks I love skateboarding the 900!!
It's crazy to see how far bmx jumping has come, from the first x games where the jumps were more about dirt riding and the jumps were on a down hill slope for speed, to now watching bmx big air, these lads are doing insane stuff that makes evel Knievel stuff look tame, although I don't think any of us would have even rode a bmx if evel hadn't been the massive world star that he was, so glad I grew up with all that stuff.
It still amazes me that so many girls and women can do this, and just that thought gives me confidants to try and skateboard again.
True female empowerment
Why don't you guys do aggressive inline, vert doubles or bike racing anymore?... Like go back to the roots, I think it'd be a big hit. I LOVE aggressive inline.
ALL of these need to come back. Events like these will keep the freshness that it has lost over time, and needs to be revived
X Games 25th anniversary fyi on video game EA Skate (2007) i remember big air and street course was amazing ! And sal muskela you make a legend host
No mention of rollerblading. They had a big part of starting the x games.
amazing compilation, but how are you not gonna talk about Shaun Palmer?!
I love this its like a birthday gift!
Is it your birthday?
Happy birthday!
Yeah well tony hawk landed the 900 on my birthday 😂
Who The Fook Is That Guy lucky
X gane por siempre!!! Muchos recuerdos y vivencias por tan solo ver la programación de los grandes personajes del deporte extremo... Un contagio deo que a uno le gusta siempre ver....
My mom grew up with KRob, he came to my school every year. I taught his kids how to swim. Such a great guy. RIP
I’m currently 20 turning 21 years old in a few weeks but.. I’ve kept seeing X games and getting myself into skateboarding Maybe even BMX and inline skating but I’ve never been to a actual X games before I hope for there 30th they do the classic logo for it and hopefully I can attend more events like this.. from Australia I hope I can see the sport grow again like it was in the 2000’s
This was so sick and inspiring but i'm kinda sad that you included almost no winter xgames because I like them at least as much as I do the summer games!! Anyway still insane 25 years letss gooooooooo!!!
The Winter X Games started a few years later than the summer version so we've got a few years to work on that still!
No, this is for summer games. They need to add blading back
I love xtreme sports this is awesome!!!
Me encantó el vídeo
Shalom afternoon howdy how.
Thank you XGames for showing the world what hard core sports are all about, taking that hard core basic nature, to the next level, again, and again, and again and again!
In my opinion, every one of you athletes are Jedi knights of the craft!
Shalom
Stoked 🤟
X-Games... Please dont ever leave us!!
I love this. Goosebumps
This is so cool
So Sick!
Wish they would bring back aggressive In-line
Two words for the X Games: Totally radical!
44:16, the fact that he landed saved that with a firecracker is almost better than if he'd made the full rail.
7:17 Brian Deegan is right!! It will never happen again!!
THIS NEEDS TO BE BROADCASTED WORLDWIDE
How can you make an 25th anniversary episode without mentioning rollerblading. Its part of X-games past and now it looks like they try to erase it from its history. They talk about love for sport and recognition, but i still see some exclusion an discrimination. So i guess some extreme sports are more equal than others.
Yeah they don't really talk about some of the sports that were very important back then, like rollerblade or luge or surfing
22:48 this shot…..chills everytime
love it i have always loved the x games i look at it like its its own sport all together but my one big question is what is Sal's favorite extreme sport ? i have always wondered he strikes me as a skater but just wondering lol
true love
Not a single mention of any rollerbladers. Even though x-games was started with them and was the main event for first 5 years. They showed lots of clips of rollerbladers but still no love. Kinda sad. Now go ahead call me a fruit booter. 😁😘
Fruit booter. :)
I’m saying, in-line skating is as 90s as it comes...
One day soon I feel blading will be back. They cant deny the level of skating.
Mirra riding vert gives goosebumps
Bring back the Inline!!!!!!
YES. I cant believe they didnt have a section for blading in this when Blading is arguably the reason Xtreme sports took off in the 90's
That Jake brown slam man. It's the worse because theres literally nothing you could do about it
a nice show
Nice
“Supercross racing bikes” 🤣 what a dork! It’s called a DIRT BIKE!!
i grew up emulating this! :D
Humanity needs rollerblading back!
The lack of love for inline makes me sad. The battle of the brothers was legendary
42:49 Iron Lotus..
Are you guys nuts? U completely cut out aggressive Inline? Thats not right. Ok, in the end the yasutoko Brother destroyed it, but cmon, that was several years of progression too.
Tony hawk legend
R.I.p Dave mirra we love you The Godfather of bmx…..
Xgames for Life!!.. THPS for Life!!..
Yeah amazing make it happen
Where are Eito and Takeshi Yasutoko?
So why is roller blading not in the xgames anymore
Bc it died. Ever see someone doing tricks on roller blades since the 90s
@@jmajesty9739 it died bc xgames decided to ignore it. It was as popular as skate at the moment.
@@jmajesty9739 Its actually in a good position with companies being skater owned now. Blading is close to being back in the games.
36:17 cameraman da real mvp
❤
That Xgame really screwed over the rollerblading committee by taking it out of the Xgames!! It lost popularity because of that!!!!
I ran into a bunch of rollerbladers last year in Minneapolis they were having their own contest outside of xgames they sounded so salty! 😂😂 “yeah we’re here cause we got exiled from xgames!”
Is P. Rod 's gonna be in 23 Jump Street?
That Backflip destroyed great Riders like Clifford Adoptante, Dan Pastor, Jake Windham, Trevor Vines, Dustin Miller, Kris Rourke, Jeremy Carter, Kris Garwasiuk Etc.
Protect Sal Masekela at all costs
nice
10:22 scotty cranmer has like 9 x games medals not 3!
9 total: 3 gold, 3 silver, 3 bronze. The title says "3-time gold medalist" though.
Sorry I thought it just said medalist not “gold” medalist.
Que buena vídeo
what good video
how did he get up???????????????????????
I need to go to an x games.
