By Josh Helmuth

X Games Austin is just around the corner. Josh Helmuth and Nash Herrington both have new tips on how to make it a great weekend.

Josh's top 5 include:

  1. June 5 is free!…downtown Austin in front of the Capitol building there will be free BMX vert and two skateboarding events.
  2. Tony Hawk will be putting on a free demo that same night.
  3. You'll also be able to witness Jamie Bestwick go for his 9th straight gold on the BMX vert June 5.
  4. There will be live music everywhere, including the Battle of the Bands. Don't miss the Flaming Lips show either.
  5. Don't forget to watch 14-year-old stud Tom Schaar on the Big Air. He's the only skater to ever land a 1080.
