The 13th annual X Games are quickly approaching. Three new events will be featured this year: surfing, BMX freestyle big air and motocross racing.
While X Games 13 will take place August 2 to 5 in Los Angeles, California, the surfing competition is scheduled for July 3 to 6 at Puerto Escondido, also known as the Mexican Pipeline. In addition to women's surfing, this year's competition will feature a "USA vs. the World" format that replaces the "East Coast vs. West Coast" approach from past years. This format pits surfers on opposing teams against one another as they compete for the highest score based on speed, control and power, all in support of a team victory.
The surfing competition is less than a week away. Until then, this video should hold you over.
