At #XGamesAspen 2009, X Games changed things up for Big Air and used a fan-voted head-to-head format to determine the winner. Simon Dumont always knew how to fire up a crowd and his double frontflip with a superman extension led to an easy gold medal. Dumont retired with 9 total XG medals, including 3 gold. #XGames #30YearsofXGames

"She can't even drive a car yet" @ChloeKim earned her third straight X Games gold at X Games Oslo 2016.

He now owns three Knuckle Huck titles. #XGames #30YearsofXGames

WORLD’S FIRST At #XGamesAspen 2023, Megan Oldham became the first woman on skis or snowboard to land a triple cork in a contest. Oldham’s 1440 was absolutely perfect. Literally — it scored a 50 and led to Big Air gold. #XGames #30YearsofXGames

Judges called this run "probably the best women's slopestyle run in history" At #XGamesAspen 2022, Zoi Sadowski-Synnott finished her run with a backside double cork 1080 to a frontside dub cork 1080, making her the first woman in competition history (both ski & snowboard) to land back-to-back double corks in a slopstyle run.

When the course designers build a hidden feature, Boyd Hilder uses it Boyd's second run in BMX Street at #XGames Japan 2023 began with a wallride to tailwhip out on the pagoda, a feature that the course designers didn't even expect athletes to use, and he rode away with gold 🥇 #30YearsofXGames #BMX
