X-Games '07 Big Air, Jake Brown, Men's and Women's Vert Results, Photos And Video!

I'm sure you've already seen this on Youtube, but hey we're 411VM and we have to fill you in on what's happening in the skateboard world.

So I went to the Big Air contest and witnessed some of the most incredible things ever done on a skateboard. Not to mention one of the worst slams ever!! All I can say is Jake Brown is my hero. Makes you wonder why a guy that kicks a soccer ball around can get payed $50,000,000 a year. I say Jake Brown gets a raise from all of his sponsors, because he sure is doing more than just kicking a ball around a grass field. See for yourself. Way to go Jake!!!

SKATEBOARDERS WILL RULE THE WORLD!!
