<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE (Jumkie @ Aug 3 2009, 10:31 AM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}><div class='quotemain'>The judges were a bit inconsistent I think. They also had a BMX competition at the same venue (Staples Center had the "big air" events, while the Home Depot Center had most everything else). Anyway, this kid does a 'double FRONT flip on the BMX bike and the dude didn't get scored enough to make the podium. Everybody was booing and stayed booing for a while. It was the first attempt and landing of this trick ever. So how it didn't get the first place was mind-boggling.
That was Anthony Neapolitan and he is amazing. Something happened to the x-games a few years ago, and it became a popularity contest. Anthony is a good man and he got screwed. Not to mention they took away his other event dirt jumping. The dew tour is the new x-games. The x-games can just go away.
