Perhaps one of the most unexpected occurrences in the Rally Super Special final at X-Games 14 was Dave Mirra tying for bronze with Ken Block. Both qualified into the bronze medal match, but both experienced mechanical problems that kept both of them from driving in the match. A tie was declared which subsequently awarded Mirra his 23rd X Games medal, a seemingly untouchable record for most medals ever won at X Games.
RALLY CAR RACING SUPER SPECIAL FINAL RESULTS:

1. Travis Pastrana / Carolyn Bosley / Annapolis, Md. / South Burlington, Vt. /
2. Tanner Foust / Chrissie Beavis / Capistrano, Calif. / San Diego, Calif. /
3. Dave Mirra / Alex Kihurani / Greenville, N.C. / Philadelphia, Pa. /

The SuperPark finals at the X-Games started with 10 people. 5 of them made it to the superfinal and Ryan Guettler was one of them. Making it this far is an accomplishment. Unfortunately for Ryan some of his wild moves did not work out the way he planned it. The 1080 into the deep end got stopped before he completed the third full rotation and the frontflip into the spine would have been sweet. Ryan ended up on place four, just missing out on the medals.

BMX history was in the making tonight at the Big Air event over at the Home Depot Center in Los Angeles as the 7 invited riders stepped onto the roll-in of the Big Air ramp set-up. With the “short” gap being 50 feet long and the long gap being 70 feet is was going to make for some serious entertainment before they his the giant quarterpipe at the end. Dave Mirra was one of the invited riders and the most decorated X-Games athlete added another medal to his extensive list of accomplishments. Dave performed his 360 no-handed backflip over the 50-footer and followed that up with an awesome 11 feet high tailwhip flair on the quarterpipe. Serious madness.

1. Chad Kagy / Gilroy, Calif. / 96.00 /
2. Dave Mirra / Greenville, N.C. / 94.66 /

With over 70 pro riders in the Park finals it was hard to make the top 12 cut to get a spot in the finals. Even good runs with hard tricks did not always make it. Maxime Charveron rode very well and found original lines on the massive street course. Flairs, whips and handplants were not enough for the finals though and he was stuck on 18th place.
Two places higher up on the qualification ranks we found Ryan Guettler who had already won the dirt comp and got 4th on the miniramp but Ryan could sit out the park finals. Ryan felt pretty sore anyway so it all worked out for him.
Big Money B (aka Alessandro Barbero) qualified in third place and that’s exactly what he got in the finals. He did a triple whip over the box, 3-whipped the smaller box and flipped the spine. Flairs, windshield wipers and non stop tricks on all the ramps on the course got him a podium spot. Alessandro is also pre-qualified for the next Dew Tour stop so you better keep an eye out for him.
