November 16th, 2006
The ESPN Winter X Games will add Snowmobile Freestyle to its sports lineup at the Winter X Games 11, January 25-28, 2007. Winter X Games 11 will air live on ESPN and ABC from its home at Buttermilk Mountain in Aspen, Colo.
Snowmobile Freestyle will feature 10 riders competing on the inaugural Winter X Games freestyle course.
Riders will take individual runs amd test their skills on jumps ranging from 45-100 feet. The bigger the tricks, the bigger the score.
Joe Duncan, Snowmobile Sport Organizer, said, “This will elevate the sport to a new level, allow new talent to emerge and bring incredible tricks to an already amazing sport. With 500-lb. machines doing backflips, it is sure to amaze on-site spectators as well as our television audience.”
