X Lames

I wanted to see the step up at the X games but I could not sit through another hour of booring skateboarder biographies. I really like the things the riders of most of the sports are doing, but I get turned off when 75% of what is shown seems to be just wasting time or a 30 minute dissertation on someone doing a 360 on a skateboard. I also was wondering that so many of these riders seem to fall, I know freestylers fall too, but it seems as though errors with skateboarding and BMX seem to reflect a lack of preparation, while the freestyle MXers really train hard because the consequences are greater.
