The X Games will be televised live this weekend and that includes wakeboarding.

The Pro Men's and Women's finals will be televised live from LA on Saturday.

The Pro Women will be up first from 2 p.m.-4 p.m. ET on ESPN on Saturday (8/7).

The Pro Men will be on ABC from 4 p.m.-6 p.m.ET on Saturday (8/7).

We don't know exactly when or how much they'll show, so you will have to tune in the whole time to be sure to catch it.

No. Unfortunately I've got a soccer coaching class to attend tomorrow. :-)

I can't believe that the organizers of both Wakestock and the X-games didn't see a problem holding both of these great events on the same weekend.

its been pretty cool so far..thursdays MotoX best trick was off the chain with that kid throwing down a body varial for the first time ever and man those Backflip variations are out of control..pastrana's backflip superman/kiss of death deal was huge and sick..he probrably should have got second..man these guys are pushing the limits..these guys show what real contests should be run and how competitors bring their best..they dont always go out and throw a standard trick ,they work all year on bringing a new one ,one that you either hit it and win or you may get hurt and be out a year with and injury.,.definitly the most extrme of extreme sports..wouldnt it be great if the Pro Men wakeboarders threw a new trick or their hardest stuff every run in the contests instead of trying to just get by and make the podium??

I'm sure it will be aired again, but I haven't been informed as to when that will happen. I'll get it up on our TV Schedule as soon as I hear about it.

Unfortunately I missed it. Will X-games be replayed on t.v. in the future at all?
