XGames 2025

A new year and a new location for X Games 2025.

16 MotoX riders represented Thrill Seekers in Salt Lake City, Utah on a spicy hot weekend in June.

Is it a mandatory requirement to run Thrill Seekers on your seat if you want the top spot on the podium?

It seems the answer is, Yes.

MotoX Best Trick

As the sun was setting over SLC Friday night, Rob Adelberg stole the show and earned his 10th XGames gold medal by landing the first ever Frontflip Stripper (hell of a name). Thinking back and watching GoodTimeCam’s footage is still mind bending because this trick certainly defies most laws of gravity and science… yet he pulled it so clean and stylish. Congrats, Rob!

Rounding out the podium of Aussies were two brothers, Ben and Tom Richards who both landed different types of body varial with perfect execution.

Crazy thing to say that MotoX Best Trick is STILL elevating! Muy impresivo, boys.

MotoX Best Whip

Night two of XGames presented the Best Whip contest. Julien Vanstippen, Tom Parsons, Jarryd Mcneil, Tyler Bereman, Wyatt Fontenot, Wanky and Vicki Golden went upside down and all around for one of the closest whip podiums I’ve witnessed.

Julien (Gold) came out on top, with seasoned medalists Tom P (Silver) and McNeil (Bronze) earning their awaited return to the podium. Yeah legends!!

While many of us were missing Pat Evans and the electric domination of whip madness, there was no shortage of action or steeze during this competition.

MotoX QuarterPipe High Air

On the final day of XGames, the highly anticipated QuarterPipe High Air took place mid-day when the only thing hotter than the air was the tension on the field. The riders had practiced twice in the past two days, moving and adjusting the ramp constantly to try and best suit everyone and ultimately make the competition as safe as possible… although ‘safe’ is not a word anyone would ever use to describe this contest.

The runway up to the Quarterpipe ramp was shortened from years past to now being only 75 feet, which meant the riders needed to take off with the intensity you’d use off the starting gate of a race. Colby Raha came ready to fight, jumping 52’6” - two feet higher than anyone else that day. Raha earned his 5th Gold Medal in XGames QuarterPipe… Madman.
