01.26.09 FLIPPING, SPINNING STILL POPULAR AT X GAMES
The Winter X Games came and went this weekend — yeah, I missed it, too — and the big stories were Shaun White becoming the first person to win consecutive golds in snowboard superpipe and the video above, which is the first-ever double back flip on a snowmobile. Except technically, Levi Lavalle’s double-back doesn’t count, because he didn’t stay on the sled. But are you gonna tell that to the FANS, man? The fans don’t care about technicalities, man, ’cause they were there, and that shit was real. So don’t go tryin’ to tell them what’s gnarly and what isn’t.

FLIPPING, SPINNING STILL POPULAR AT X GAMES
I’m not sure, but I think that I hate Shaun White more than any other human. Fucking daywalker.
So, he crashed. It doesn’t count. And that takes 5 minutes. I hate x games bullshit.
And all gingers creep me out.
That ain’t nothing….the last time I went snowmobiling, I got lost in the woods and had to call my nephew to come get me. Very proud moment that.
I’m never watching something called “X Games” unless it’s preceded by the word “Rated”.
Do a trick!!!!!!!11!
@Smello: According to comedians, women are the ones who ask for directions…so what’s your deal?
I was most disappointed in the weird sit-ski paraplegic event. I watch the X Games to witness people becoming paralyzed. If they start out that way, it takes all the fun out of it.
Apparently women are willing to ask for directions because we (or at least I) can’t accurately read trail signs…or maps.
I’ll tell you what IS gnarly- this new growth that has appeared on my little general.
To me, the most extreme trick is our lord and savior Jesus dying on the cross for our sins. He really nailed it.
Enrico, you’ll be happy to know that Shaun White won on reputation alone and should have been given the silver. Even he was surprised.
/yeah I watched, so what?
@Yamabushi: Know the difference between Jesus and a picture of Jesus?
@WDYA: you only need 1 nail to hang a picture.
Wonder-twin powers activate!
Form of a punchline!
