ICYMI: Women’s BMX Park made its debut as a medaled event at #XGamesVentura 2024! 🥇 Hannah Roberts, Perris Benegas and Kim Muller made history as the first female athletes to make up the first-ever #XGames Women’s BMX Park podium. Nina Buitrago, who has been a pioneer for women’s BMX for over 20 years, commented on seeing her dreams realized at X Games: “The entire time I’ve been pushing for all this, I’ve been hoping that companies would see what a little support would do for that progression. Having something like the Olympics and bigger events like X Games making this happen, I really hope that the visibility for the women will increase. It’s accessible now.” - Nina Buitrago, X Games athlete and pro BMX rider #BMX #WomenInSports #WomensSports

Everyone watches (or should watch) women’s sports 💯 “The numbers don’t lie, women’s sports are creating incredible business opportunities. And the progress in women’s sports is being made at breakneck pace; hesitate and you may miss your shot to score big.” X Games has introduced 5 new women’s disciplines in the last 6 months, with 2 of those during #XGamesVentura - Women’s BMX Park and Women’s Skateboard Vert Best Trick. And we will continue to be a driving force for women’s action sports because we believe that women’s sports deserve the spotlight just as much as men’s. 📝: Liz Elting & Forbes #XGames #womenssports

"Our fans spoke, and we listened..." This year's X Games Ventura 2024 presented by SONIC was truly unforgettable! We kicked off with the inaugural X Games Forum on Thursday, unveiling exciting details about the launch of the X Games League (XGL) and engaging discussions on the future of action sports. Over three action-packed days, we witnessed record-breaking athlete performances, fueled by an enthusiastic crowd. The music stage featured 10 incredible artists including Wiz Khalifa and Kaskade, with an electrifying surprise performance by Machine Gun Kelly! We introduced several new initiatives that were met with great success, such as the exclusive SONIC Club '95 premium lounge, the Owner's Club, and the exhilarating Session the Pro Course experience. X Fest was fully packed with attractions like the Vive Wakeskate Pool, the U.S. Army X Fest Street Course showcasing rollerskate and scooter demos, and daily pop-up performances by the talented Rowdy the Skateboarding Dog. Additionally, attendees enjoyed the O.C. Ramps Mini Ramp, the Onewheel Course, and the interactive park by STACYC featuring the thrilling GromSquad Jump Show every day! And the merchandise was a huge hit that featured collaborations with Kaskade and Danny Duncan (merch is still available online at shop.xgames.com)! What made this year's event even more special was our commitment to listening to feedback from fans and implementing significant improvements from last year. It's essential that the fan experience evolves year over year, and I am immensely proud of my team for their dedication to delivering a top-notch experience for fans, athletes, and sponsors alike. Until next time (sooner than you think!) ...
