We can't continue to compare medal counts to today's competitors. When Pastrana competed there was only one contest. Now there's potential for a single competitor to walk away with several golds per year. If Pastrana competed today his medal count would be untouchable. There's gonna be people with way more medals than him but Pastrana is the guy that got regular people interested in X-GAMES in the first place. He's the goat, end of argument🤷♂️
@@mattywright86 did I say argument? 🤦 Maybe if you've payed attention to this years competition you'd notice that they keep posting medal counts of the OGs compared to the current winners. So far I've seen it in skating, FMX and BMX. Wanna argue about it?🤣🤣🤣
@@thelonewrangler1008 my intention was sort of agreeing with your statement and never to argue with you and sorry that you misread my comment. You obviously enjoy wasting time and energy online arguing with people that dont matter to you with a reply like that and I am not that person. Roll on buddy.
YESSS!!! Julien vanstippen DESERVED that good medal!! That dude had HUUUUGE whips!!! And he was doing it over the 110 foot booter when no one else was!!
I've just bought a kx450f and it sounds like the apocalypse. Just starting up saves my day. So happy about it. I loved my 2 stroke too and was rad but this is something else.
@@robertjarmai2627 I grew up racing in the 90's on two strokes. When four strokes started getting popular my friend got a YZ450 and I was amazed by it, never ridden anything like it until that point. I loved how I could be in any gear and almost any speed and just roll a wheelie on because of the low end power.
I had to skip forward a little bit when she was asking Tyler questions, when she asked him to say what a wip is after he just broke it all down was too much cringe for me 😂.
@@gblonde2331 you may be correct. BUT it’s called Best Whip. Not Whips… and he By FAR had the biggest best whip. Wether it was on 1st or 2nd ramp don’t matter IMO
You bring up a good point. But TB said thw format was that they would be judged on both whips over 3 or 4 runs to come up with a winner or final score. Ur right tho his whips were large.
Not the first time Axell threw away a gold place finish. His first run put him in gold position and then he played it safe. His last two runs were weak. He did the same thing in big air, Colby Came back on the last run and put two feet on Axell.
I think he just gave his best and enjoyed the whole thing. I was competing mtb dirt in the 2000's and won some competitions like redbull dirtride and local nationals, but never really risked anything. I have no regrets when I came up 2nd or 3rd because I enjoyed riding and the same I can see in Axell. I don't see why he should try harder and I reckon I have seen him doing better in many of his videos. He rides best when he has the flow experience. Like fish in the water :)

Julians first whip on the 120 got me like 👀
YESSS!!!

I totally agree!!!!!
Amazing contest, Julian had crazy whips off that 110 footer
Every time Tom whips it he looks so smooth he makes it look easy, perfect landings everytime
I am a mechanical engineering but I haven't got a clue how those physics work at 17:11 😅. Such a sick jump!
X Games best scrub would be awesome
I didn’t know there was three types of whips till Tyler explained it cheers
Best Whip is still an event because it uses the same ramps for the Freestyle event.
Don't lie.
Would rather see speed and style.
Watching it back that was a GENIUNE reaction from bilko when Vanstippen threw that first whip off the 120
What happened to 2 strokes? The sounds are amazing. 4 strokes blow!

Agree to disagree

Anyone else notice the Genki Wantanabe was using a 2018 kx450f and not his 2022
I swear nothing looks crazier than a big whip to me.
It really looks like physics is breaking down
Just time stamping Vanstippen’s massive 110 footer @17:11 🔥
thats the whip that got him gold

Dudeeeee at 17:14 min idc that one whip won the comp. He shoulda won
He did Win though
Todd Potters had the best whip in dirt bike history. No one can top him!!!
Potter rocks too yes
Hard to argue with that
So sick!
who is jimmy coleman
Personal feel like McNeil should’ve had 3rd with that first whip in the first run. It was tweaked.
His all looked so good
Dude an stippen str8 up sent it off the 110 wow
I can almost guarantee in a few years they will be doing 360’s, wips somehow, and bars.
They have been doing 360s
This looks so fun but how on earth do you even get into this without having loads of money xc
Sick!!! But who tf is Janky????
I’d be super suprised if he didn’t win gold the 2nd whip on the 110ft blows everyone else away.
ya but his first whip always looked awkward and forced. axle did a better job looking good on both ramps.

When is moto x best trick on
The way they whip it makes me think they can just spin a 360 like a bmx

Blake LOVE TUKIE BRITCHES CRRY
Not the same without the fans and nowhere near exciting
Everyone does the same trick over and over
but we cant have aggressive inline?
What happened to Tod Potter? Probably having a beer right now.
Twitch need to come out of retirement
It's unbelievable that motocross rider are afraid of breathing air. That's not the spirit.
man vanstippen
Sheeny hahahahahha
Best whip but no rollerblading?
Inline is dead to the world unfortunately. Might as well make Soap Shoeing a competition at that point.
Rollerblading 😂 ur funny
