Lets be real if X Games had a normal rail jam not one on the slopestyle course but a good ol fashioned rail jam with a coupe of boxes and rails that aren't 10 feet in the air it could bring a ton of variety to the athletes and it would be fucking sick to watch. Maybe instead of all the mega famous pros we would see some people like Andy Parry or Will Wesson in the games.

I'm always in favor of adding more events to watch (especially with the knuckle huck success), however, after the judging in this years contests. it seems like big spins/pretzels would be favored over style.

Should be rider judged, no one can argue with the results then.

Since when has judging not favored big spins and pretzels?

OP, if xgames had a rail jam, it would only be top name pros. You can't expect xgames to make some core localish style event, they only have events to make money, not help the sport. Tom's rail jam will be back next year (hopefully) and I think an event like that will fill the void of such contests.

ESPN is not involved with the rail jam, they made a world of xgames about it but its not an xgames/espn event.

This would slap, especially with the knuckle huck doing so well and being a new favorite.
