It was a night for history and heartbreak at this year's X Games Skateboard Vert final. Athletes took two wall-to-wall runs across a 60-foot halfpipe, combining technical spins and lip tricks. Judges ranked riders based on aggressive execution, variety, originality, continuity of run, style and degree of difficulty.

It was an exciting day for RallyCross at Austin's Circuit of the Americas. The event featured 20 drivers competing on a narrow, mixed-surface course including asphalt, dirt, jumps and other obstacles. For the 10-lap final, the six best drivers faced off with the top three earning the coveted X Games medals.

In most X Game sports, the competitors aren't even old enough to shave.  They are so good at riding bikes and skateboards because they haven't gotten a learners permit to drive yet.  Enter Global Rallycross.

We are eat up with Global Rally Cross... especially HoonKaboomTX.  We sat with the wife of GRC Competitor Andy Scott, and we had a blast!
