Flashback to April 18, 2013. X Games has gone global and after winter stops in Aspen and Tignes, we dipped down to Brazil for X Games Foz do Iguaçu 2013. On day one, young guns and seasoned veterans produced a Skateboard Big Air show for the ages in Brazil. And in the end, Brazil s own Bob Burnquist draped yet another Big Air gold medal around his neck for the discipline s first threepeat. We ve had these MegaRamp events here, and I ve gotten wins here, but, this was unique, Burnquist said. I m really stoked. And to do it here at home, as the first main X Games I can t ask for anything An onpoint Elliot Sloan claimed silver. Australia s 38yearold Jake Brown took home the bronze medal, along the way penning a new page in the history books with skateboarding s first 720 ollie. If you were there, this was one Big Air comp to remember, and in case you missed it, enjoy this trip down memory lane X Game
