Hey errrybody, the Winter X Games start this Thursday night and I implore you to watch some of it. Set your DVRs to record all of it, then just pick out the parts that look stoke-able and watch those. This will let you skip over stuff like the snowmobile races. BO-ring.
The mean age for Winter X Games competitors is about 18, but the magnitude and complexity of the tricks is off the charts. Check out the crash from training today in the video below. Poor Simon Dumont hits the deck of a half pipe (which is pretty much pure ice) like nothing I’ve ever seen. And, he gets up and skis away; after being knocked unconcious.
The crash happens around 4:15. The rest is somewhat unspectacular.
