[@LVM5584]

2:10 one of the most nostalgic themes of the 90’s. 1995-2001 was the Real X Games. 2002-2006 still very good. 2007 on they were never the same lots
Of the good events became obsolete

[@funkyjitz]

Badass, I remember sitting back in my corduroy big shorts and airwalk ones to watch me some XGames.
Good times, wish I could like it twice.

[@robscaglione1960]

I rode for airwalks when they 1st came out loved those shoes

[@KaTiToYs_81]

This was the era i was hooked in BMX.... i love this.....

[@JoeBushOnline]

Yooo thank you for ripping this whole thing. I had the VHS tape of this film like a decade ago and got some of it uploaded to UA-cam but my VCR ended up failing before i could get the whole thing off

[@1Kinetic]

Thank you very much for uploading this.

[@Oligampla]

So cool. Too bad, i was only 4 years old when this happened and i had no ESPN channel in my TV anyways. The Playstation 1 game of this brought me here. Thanks for upload!

Skateboarding is the number one best event in the X Games.

[@jamesrockefeller7808]

This is amazing I was 5 when this happened

[@bdiddy2951]

I was there every day. Free admission back then

[@dustykh]

Do you happen to remember all the events? i've been looking around but i cant find a single source showing what all 27 things were

[@SilverCali11]

Classic. Would do anything to go back.

[@demondsofdogtown]

This aged so well. thank you

[@NewEnglish860]

Was there...special time

[@MikeMuellnerMD]

So basically Street Skating was a bunch of Vert Quarter Pipes and then what appears to be a random El Toro sized handrail and set of stairs in the middle of the course.

[@BrandonKohout]

Tony Hawk with a 540 McTwist!

[@vhr]

i was curious how the skateboarding street course (35:00) looked in the 1st X Games as I've never seen it before. Kinda bizarre to think about the best skaters in the world today (Nyjah, Yuto, Shane O'Neill, etc) skating on that. Sure have come a long way!

[@BrandonKohout]

RIP Dave Mirra

[@bmxscape]

this is so dope! no matter the sport all of these dudes are extreme
LOL wheres the 2021 barefoot waterskiing championship

[@freshzinn]

[@BrandonKohout]

Warning! This video of the 1995 X Games contains moments and stunts performed by real experienced professional athletes. Don’t try any of these stunts at home. Unless, of course, you have professional instructions to wear the proper safety equipment that your instructors recommend.
