The X Games are watched by millions. But only a few viewers are skating, snowboarding, and action sports experts. Which means that�to casual fans�the trick names called out during a run might as well be a foreign language.
Our challenge: decode the tricks of X Games so that casual sports fans could understand what they were watching and become bigger fans.
We created Trick Track, a feature of the new XGames.com and X Games apps which uses real-time data and 3D models to display an athlete�s run as it happens�listing tricks by name and giving fans a simple explanation of what they actually mean.
Trick Track appeared on the new XGames.com and X Games apps, helping raise site visits by 72%, page views by 99%, and time spent by 57%�and opening the door for casual viewers to actually understand why X Games athletes are so incredible.
