Red Bull X Fighters

Post by dirtyboy »

I see their ad at the bottom of the page lately. They got a good website there. Nice pics and video.

I guess that they were at the Bar U ranch doing some publicity stunts and such with the Rocky Mountains in the background. Cool pics.

Look for the ad at the bottom of the page if interested.

They've sold 21,000 tickets so far, basicly sold out, may be some standing room left? I'm going! :applause:

I don't know about you guys, but I think I've seen enough heel-clickers, supermans and backflips for a lifetime... Yawn. I'm going riding.

BUT I would definitely go if my lovely friend :nworthy: Jolene Van Vugt was going to do some stunts!!

Well your in luck, the show does not start until 8:30. That leaves plenty of time to go for a ride and still show up for the event. :redneck:

A big thumbs up to Calgary for bieng the only Canadian city on the tour! These guys are amazing athletes! It says something about our Moto culture! I agree with Suzanne, its pretty sad when a plain backflip is now "easy" Actually I was planning to go, but my young lad had some "issues" and that priveledge was revoked. :crybaby:

Went with my boys last night, I was a great show. Amazing how after seeing a few back flips and so on, it seems to get boring. I think its' more interesting to watch me take down a tree, fracture a few ribs, swear at my bike, etc, etc!

I got the best of both worlds, went riding during the day, saw 3 bears on Barwell, and then went to the x-fighters. It was the first time I've seen that stuff in person, not sure I'd be so excited to do it again.

I went with Rackman, and thought it was awsome except that Robbie Maddison won. I think Mat Rebeaud should of won and not just because he rides KTM, I thought when Mat competed against Maddison, Matt was 10 times smoother and had way more style. But thats just my thoughts
