From producing his own YouTube videos hoping to get invited to X Games, to winning X Games gold in BMX Big Air, Ryan Williams is the quintessential X Games model for chasing your dreams. Several years ago, Ryan Williams was an aspiring scooter and BMX rider that could send it over the Big Air gap on any form of transportation he could find. Then, people started asking him about X Games, but no one had seen Ryan ride the Big Air quarterpipe before. Then, he posted a video of himself hucking huge frontflip flairs and inverts, and a few weeks later, he scored an invite to X Games Minneapolis 2018. Now three gold medals deep in BMX Big Air, Ryan Williams is the new face of Big Air. Not seeing him ride X Games in 2020 has been tough, so we reached out to Ryan to see how he's doing! 1:00 What is your title? 2:00 The Hot Box Segment 5:00 Hot Box Standings 5:25 The new NBD 7:00 How do you come up with tricks? 8:16 How's 2020 going without traveling to events? 9:55 I actually rode rollerblades first. 11:20 When did you realize you could go pro? 13:25 Making scooters more legit 14:00 Meeting Travis Pastrana 16:00 Getting nervous at comps 17:40 Making noise about getting into X Games 18:54 I'm going to the X Games 19:30 Joining the BMXers at X Games 21:30 The Frontflip flair 24:00 Winning gold at X Games Sydney 26:50 X Games Shanghai 29:30 How high did I go? 33:00 X Games Minneapolis 2019 35:40 I'm not a daredevil 37:20 If I don't land straight.... 41:00 R Willy's YouTube channel 43:00 Never being satisfied 44:00 R Willy land 45:30 I still haven't talked to Tony Hawk --- Progression at its finest!

Hailed in Supercross/motocross as the "Greatest of all Time" (GOAT), the now retired Ricky Carmichael won more AMA SX/MX races and broke more records than any rider in the sport's history. Carmichael dominated AMA Supercross after beating McGrath in 2001 and won every AMA Motocross overall championship he contested from 1997 to 2006. Then he took on X Games. Starting in Moto X Racing, Carmichael took gold, followed by two more gold medals in Moto X Step Up in 2008 and 2009. On top of all this, Ricky Carmichael competed in 2019’s Real Moto competition, earning a bronze medal and fan favorite. Now, he’s taking on the biggest challenge of his career: Brando’s World of X.
