MOTO X
They said it couldn't be done, but we found a way. Leave it to ESPN to take a summer sport and make it work in the winter. Some might wonder, but no one is complaining about the addition of Moto X Big Air to the 2001 Winter X Games. Not a sport for the weak hearted, Moto X throws predictability to the wind and common sense out the window. Incredible displays of drama and even higher levels of danger make Moto X a sport impossible to not appreciate.

MOTO X BIG AIR
Moto X may be new to the Winter Games, but far from old at Summer X. Moto X Big Air is unlike any other sport. Still in its infancy, but progressing at a rapid pace, it is a combination of insane amounts of air and tons of adrenaline. Similar to the Freestyle competition, the object is to go as big as humanly possible, pull a death-defying trick mid-air, and land with ease on the other side. Instead of having a course filled with multiple jumps and 60-foot transitions even Evil Kenivel would be impressed by, riders will have three attempts on a single jump. Seven riders will take their turn racing up the 15-foot ramp to launch over a 70-foot gap and pull off their best trick. Using a bag full of aerial moves such as the Superman Seat-Grab, the Cliff Hanger, and the Hart Attack, riders are guaranteed to leave you with your mouth wide open.
