Just like I predicted Rune Glifberg sailed into the X Games and took what he wanted. And by what he wanted, I mean the gold medal in Park. He skated that course head and shoulders better than anyone. There was Chad Barbie, who likes to party and throw shrimps on the barbie, who hung around for a little bit, but Rune was just too much.

Once again, Andy Mac was lingering and managed to pull in a silver. It's rad to see a guy able to do it as long as he has, and manage to still medal at the X Games. I only have one question. Pads? Really Andy. Omar Hassan, was skating with a torn ACL, no pads, was killing it, and failed to medal.

Anyway, we all knew Rune was going to win it. The contest was for second, I'm stoked to see the Australian terror known was Bartie was able to medal, but just a little bummed there was no medal for Omar. Pads? Really!!!

Results:
1. Rune Glifberg
2. Andy Macdonald
3. Chad Bartie
