A little over 10 years ago, Ryan and I started attending X Games eventsas they started to really get a lot of things right, like the course, the invited skaters, and the format. We've been attending as spectators ever since, watching the evolution of their big event. This year, we're pleased to announce that we're working with X Games and ESPN as the skateboarding organizers for the Men’s and Women’s Street and Park disciplines. For the next three years, we'll be mixing skateboard business and pleasure with our friends at ESPN, as we all continue to help evolve their skateboarding events. This year, X Games is in Austin, Texas starting June 5th.

X Games 2014 Skaters
6/3/2014
This year at X Games, we're taking an initial step into top am skateboarding with the first X Games Am. We complied the input from key people in the skateboarding industry like magazine editors and other influential skaters to get a short list of 12 top ams to have in this one. Then when we discovered how many of them can't make it, we return to the drawing board to rearrange. Repeat that process like five times and you're at this list of 12 confirmed rippers below. The process for Park and Pro Street works in a similar way. Watch for more on our plans for am skateboarding after we get through an already packed summer of good times at all these skateboarding gatherings. Here's the list of skaters you'll see this week in X Games Austin 2014.

I hope you caught all that on ESPN for the Street Finals for both men and women. It was a fun and ripping afternoon of skateboarding here in Austin, Texas. After Grant Taylor skipped town and gave up his spot in the cut to Alec Majerus who had just missed it yesterday, I was certain he was going to take it today. Then Nyjah came with new tricks and of course his usual bag of destruction. Get the full week's results here. Congrats Nyjah, Lacey, and Pedro for gold in Street and Park this year.
