The thrilling world of the X Games goes to the beach this Summer at the World Surf League (WSL) Lexus US Open of Surfing and we brought a halfpipe. On the south side of the Huntington Beach Pier, X Games hosted the Lexus X Games Vert Pro, with top pro and amateur Vert skateboarders in attendance. The competitions took place during both weekends of the highly-anticipated summer festival, starting on August 3, 2024.
With a massive 13 foot skateboard Vert ramp right on the beach, fans can get up close to legends like 12-time X Games medalist Jimmy Wilkins, 16-time medalist Elliot Sloan, and Tony Hawk’s protege, 11-year-old Reese Nelson, all hosted by the loudest voice in action sports commentary: Jason Ellis.

LET'S GO JD! So awesome to watch him progress from a fresh-faced boy to the shredding young man we see here.
GG, boys✌️💕 Gui & JD killin it
Let’s gooooooo!! 🔥🔥🔥🔥 Beyond stoked to do my first XGames!!
Who shot this? Camera so washed out and de saturated. Its a bright beautiful day out. Atleast colour correct
Jd had way more technical tricks and way more amplitude than Gui I am convinced that he lost to veteran status.
Edit at the time of this comment ^^^ I had yet to see Gui do his final run and having said that and having seen it I still say jd had the better run.
Going to be interesting to see how JD Sanchez incorporates the 900 into his runs.
that front boardslide to backside revert was awesome by AJ
AJ bringing some hesh to this event!
Love me some Gui, but JD deserved the win in this, IMO.
JD JD JD JD JD JD JD JD JD JD JD JD JD JD JD JD JD
20:54 He should put that on a shirt.
DUDE I cannot believe how Amazing it was
Kokomo Aj Nelson 🤘🤘🤘
Watching Dan Corrigan channel when AJ was with Powell, I never knew AJ was such a showman. AJ was always messing around clowning around making it fun watch. And on top he was ripping!!
JD on the other hand, he progressed so much & grew so much too. With all that tech flips he has done, I believe he would’ve won if did a 900 instead of that 720.
I know he hasn’t pulled a 900 as of yet before this contest, but he pulled his first ever 900 after the contest!
scoring made no sense, looks like it was done by AI
I know AJ Styles is already taken, but it's fitting here too
JDs my new favourite now. Got the tech but skates big
The woman commentators skate knowledge is of high caliber
29:47 how did he roll away from that!
Who is screaming THE WHOLE TIME!!! – I know it's not Jason!
Where's Moto? Also loved the Misfits tracks playing in the background
jason ellis is the gary rodgers of vert. as in shut him up already.
AJ killed it, Ben Raybourn vibes
So stoked JD getting the recognition he deserves!
Jd from braille to here
AJ Nelson! my fav one!
That tiger jump!! <3
YEAHHHHHHHH, JD 💯💯💯
I told myself after the Army commercial that interrupted a run, that if JD Sanchez didn’t get a 90 off his steeze alone, I was leaving a comment shading the X Games
Hey, X Games. Suck it XXX
Was Braille actually holding JD back..?
JD you Rock! Love your style!
guis third run was jaw dropping
selema is my fav commentator out of everyone, he brings the passion
JD is the future
JD's skating is like tony's tech plus hosoi's height and style, insane
🌐🌐🌐
É o Brasil porra GUI KRURY..
Women will be beating some of these guys soon. The bar's higher every day too.
JD’s progression is amazing. From kid to master in a couple of years.
