FMX

Any fans here?

It's one of my favourite sports but the lack of tv coverage is seriously frustrating. All we really get is X games.

I got hooked watching Rush HD back in the day (moto pig was awesome) but now there really isn't any regular programming apart from X-Fighters which is on for about 6 weeks (months after the actual event) and low quality coverage on Eurosport occasionally.

Nitro Circus is ok but what i'd really like is a way to watch some of the best US events, even if it was just streaming.

FMX mentioned in General Motorsport? I fear this will not end well...

I'm a little FMXed out to be honest. Its so hard to move the game on now, its hard to see where the next advancement in trick or course layout will come from. It has however lead me to the very enjoyable AMA Supercross and Motorcross, along with Endurocross and Hard Enduro (Sea to Sky etc).

Maybe I'm too old for all that trickery now days but I just find it it all a bit samey and pedestrian.

I enjoy FMX but I don't think watching it on telly does it any justice. I first got into it when I saw them doing it indoor at the NEC about 6 or 7 years ago. I attend a few events a year where the U.K. guys are performing because of my job and in the flesh it never seems to get any less spectacular. I don't think you can really bash it as a sport because it takes so much balls. Anyone who hasn't seen it in the flesh I'd recommend taking the time to go and watch it at Goodwood Festival of Speed or another event.

I find it fascinating to watch but struggle to view it as a 'motorsport' I'm the same way I have issues with drifting. Anything that involves a judge awarding points is a little too opaque for me.
