Just got back from the X Games in Aspen and it was amazing! If you didn’t mind the crowds or the cold it was flawless. The parking was easy, the event was free to the public you get close to alot of the athletes. I guess if there was a negative it was that some of the events were watched on the big screen until they far enough down the mountain to be seen live. Even so, it was still exciting to see them blast the last couple jumps or race to the finish line.
I’m also very pleased to see that adaptive sports are taking a bigger role in the X games. There was Adaptive snowcross and mono skier x. This is great exposure to the general public about adaptive sports. Most people think that after an accident your days of competeing in sports is over, this definatly showed the fans that is not true.
Big praise to those athletes and Big Ups to ESPN for inviting adaptive sports into the X Games
