X Games celebrates a 20-year legacy in action sports with the “20 Years, 20 Firsts” campaign – a collection of 20 of the most iconic “first-trick moments” beginning from the franchise’s inception in 1995 through the debut of X Games Austin in early June. The first moment of 20 was unveiled today on XGames.com and will be followed by the reveal of one new moment each succeeding week through April. Beginning in May, two moments will be revealed each week until June 5 – the first day of X Games Austin. The top 20 firsts will include moments such as Travis Pastrana’s ground-breaking double backflip and Shaun White’s perfect
SuperPipe score of 100 and the stories behind them.
XGames.com will give fans a chance to vote for their favorite first moment starting in May, while those onsite at X Games Austin June 5-8 will also be able to cast their votes to determine which “20 Years, 20 Firsts” moment has withstood the test of time as the fan favorite.
Following X Games Austin, all 20 moments will air in a one-hour special on June 29 on ABC. Check local listings for complete details.
