X Games Replays – Aussies clean up in Minneapolis | News

Aussie FMX riders collected a fair share of silverware at X Games Minneapolis, winning medals in almost every Moto X competition.

Jarryd McNeil won Moto X Step Up, jumping to a height of 40-feet! He was the only rider to clear the bar at this height and collected gold for his efforts – his fourth X Games Step Up Gold Medal in a row!

Corey Creed snatched Gold in QuarterPipe High Air from event favourites Tyler Bereman (second) and Colby Raha (Third).

Moto X Freestyle was an all-Australian affair with Rob Adelberg, Josh Sheehan and Jackson Strong finishing first, second and third, respectively. Japan’s Taka Higashino was fourth, Harry Bink fifth and Clinton Moore sixth.

Monster Energy Moto X Best Trick saw French rider David Rinaldo unveiled a brand-new trick which won him the Gold. A backflip body varial, an insane trick you have to see to believe. Aussies Jackson Strong and Josh Sheehan finished second and third.

American Tyler Bereman won Best Whip, no surprises there. Bereman is known for throwing down the most insane whips and he didn’t disappoint in Minneapolis.
