2006 Asian X Games

This was the highlight last weekend. 3 day event, starting Friday. Held in Sunway Lagoon Theme Park. Got the free passes from Joyce (thanks!). When we arrived, Sunway Lagoon took the opportunity to increase their sales that day by giving the X Games visitor a chance to enjoy a 'All Park Access' for just RM 10. Since Dav had never been to the theme park and also he wanted to experience 'Malaysia's First and Only 360 degree rotating pirate ship - PIRATE'S REVENGE!'

When I was young, I used to loved to go on theme park rides.. but my fear increase as I age... Was really afraid to go on it cos it turns ard! In the middle of the ride, it even stops in the air! Imagine get tangled upside down for a few seconds...

So instead of heading straight to catch the X games competition, we detoured to take a ride in Pirate's Revenge. How was it?? It was pretty SCARRY!!!!!

Back to the Asian X Games... it used to be held in Bkt Jalil from 2002 - 2004. Went in 2004 with Joyce & Penny. It was quite fun... esp when u get to check out the cute skaters and getting autographs. On top of that its free! So this time round, Joyce has informed me few months back and make sure I block out my calendar to go with her. Unfortunately, she had to work (which is more important la, earning money mah) so I ended up going with Dav.

Events that we saw that day:
1. Moto X demo (5 aussie drivers doing stunts in the air)
2. Skateboard Vert finals
3. Aggresive Inline Skate Park finals
4. Aggresive Inline Vert prelims (my fav!)

Highlights:
- 10 years old Jap boy skating on huge vert and doing backflip! Remember Joyce the 8 yr old boy 2 yrs ago who fell and starting cryin in the vert and then consoled by the Yasutoko bros? The same boy is back in the games! He has improved ALOT!

- Discover Gerhana Ska Cinta, a malay band which sings quite unique type of music but nice different.

Promised Joyce I would put up some cool pics we took. See what you missed...
