X Games Austin | Stadiums & Stampedes
Austin's first (and certainly not last) year as an X Games host was successful, to say the least. The weekend delivered—by hand, foot, two and four wheels, via ramp, a mighty stellar observation tower, by grass and amphitheater—a remarkable lineup, optimal weather (albeit a bit humid, though it's June in Texas), and back-to-back action sports that kept everyone dancin', taking illegal dips in the venue's pond, and on the edge of their seats.
X Games Austin, Just Around the Corner | June 5-8 | Preview
The countdown is on. In just five days, the X Games will be taking over Austin's Circuit of the Americas for four days of badass action sports and even better music. On Thursday, June 5, X Games will take over downtown Austin for a free event that includes its highly anticipated Skateboard and BMX Vert competitions afront the Capitol—then, featured by Myspace, Holy Ghost! will put on a sure-to-be dancey show at Austin's famed ACL Live Moody Theater on Congress Street—also free.
