Question

In snowboarding is the xgames bigger or the olympics?

Answer 1

The most exciting platform for ANY extreme sport is the X Games, some of the best riders/skiers in the world don't train for the olympics but they know they have to step there game up for the X Games.

Answer 2

Sorry guys, to weekend warriors and tourists the x games and olympics are important (also maybe snowboard jocks) but snowboarding isnt about that and most care more about a video part than any ridiculous money maker for energy drinks and the navy

Answer 3

Yes I agree all the way.  No bigger stage then the Olympics.

However the X-games still manage to put on one h**l of a show.

Answer 4

There is no bigger stage nor greater triumph in sports than an Olympic gold medal.  The competition is fierce and the pressure greater due to the global audience.  Hence, the olympics would be bigger...much much bigger.   Shaun White got plenty of play for winning all these X games medals ... but his career (and the $$$$ for endorsements) really took off after winning at the Olympics. -- Everyone in the country knows who he is because of the X games ... everyone in the WORLD knows who he is because of the Olympics.  --

Answer 5

Man the XGAMES are so exciting and no one really cares about snowboarding in the olympics its all Xgames which i think is better

Answer 6

oooooooohhhhhh I dunno - x games is kinda cool
