Dallas Friday wins her third straight ESPN X-Games, giving her 4th career X-Games Gold Medals. Despite all the media attention on Dallas this year, she kept a cool head and threw down like she was on a mission! Taking her OHH, Tantrum, and Batwing way out into the flats Friday secured herself her 3rd straight X-Games Gold.
O'Brien rider Josh Sanders also continued his domination by placing 3rd in X-Games Men's Wakeboarding. Only one week after winning the Pro Wakeboard Tour Title, Sanders rode to his best X-Games Finnish. Sanders was followed in 4th by fellow Australian and O’Brien Teammate, Daniel Watkins who in the finals threw and landed the first ever double backroll in X-Games Wakeboarding history.
Congratulations to Dallas, Josh and Daniel on an amazing X-Games performance!
