ESPN X Games 14 is here again

The countdown is on...X Games 14 is here. There is a lot of anticipation in the air with all the newcomers and new tricks that will be unveiled, it is pretty exciting to see what is in store for us.

Today was Media Day so I headed on down to the Home Depot center with my sidekick, Michele Johnson of MX Girls. One of the benefits of Media Day is that they always have some cool swag for everyone. From packs of 50 blank DVD's and T-Shirts to X Games branded skateboard memory sticks. Schick being one of the sponsors, they always have free razors. Are they trying to tell us something? Maybe so, I caught Ryan Leyba using his new razor/beard trimmer earlier today.



Of course, how can you shave without shaving cream right? Well, Edge is another sponsor of X Games and to help promote their product with the younger generation, the have come up with clever catch phrases! You be the judge.



After having fun with our new swag, we headed on over to catch a glimpse of some of the BMX practice. Here are some photos of what was going on at practice.

Michele Johnson and Dave Mirra







So stay tuned for more X Games coverage over the next couple days.
