Highlights and Results

Day 1 - Thursday, August 2nd

*Jake Brown lost his board on his way up the quarterpipe during a skateboard run in the Big Air contest, falling 50 feet to the floor. Incredibly, he managed to walk away from the fall, but suffered a bruised liver, fractured wrist, and bruised lung. In replays, it was shown that he changed direction at the last second which forced his back foot to push the board away from him. This allowed him and his board to follow in different directions. Jake Brown would be released from the hospital on August 4th and was at the Moto X Freestyle preliminaries though he was walking with a cane.

Men's Skateboard Big Air

Women's Skateboard Street

Note: This was the first year that competitors had to win to medal.

Day 3 - Saturday, August 4th

BMX Park

Moto X Freestyle

This year introduced a new rule that stated that once a rider "bailed" or had fallen, their run was over, reinforcing the medal contention.

Rallying

Pastrana/Edström were disqualified in the semifinals after crossing into their competitors' lane just before the finish against Foust/Beavis. Pastrana defeated Ramana Lagemann for the bronze medal. Lagemann replaced Colin McRae in the bronze race because McRae's car was too heavily damaged.
