X Games Sacramento 2026: BMX Delivers an Unforgettable Weekend

X Games Sacramento 2026 has already produced some incredible moments, with the world's best BMX riders putting on a spectacular display across Park, Park Best Trick and Dirt. From championship-winning runs to world firsts, the opening days of the event have reminded everyone why X Games remains the pinnacle of action sports.

Justin Dowell Defends His BMX Park Crown

Justin Dowell successfully defended his Men's BMX Park title, putting down a championship-winning score of 97.00 in his final run.

After crashing on his second attempt, the American responded under pressure with a flawless run featuring a 360 double tailwhip, triple truckdriver, flair barspin, backflip barspin to turndown, truckdriver to downside tailwhip and a massive 900 no-hander.

The victory marks Dowell's second consecutive X Games Men's BMX Park gold medal, backing up his victory in Salt Lake City in 2025 and further establishing himself among the world's top park riders.

Logan Martin Continues to Deliver

Australia's Logan Martin once again found himself on the X Games podium, earning silver in Men's BMX Park with a score of 95.66.

Martin's highest-scoring run included an opposite flair opposite whip, 720 barspin flipwhip, double downside tailwhip and double flair, demonstrating the consistency and technical riding that have made him one of BMX's biggest names.

The Olympic champion wasn't finished there, adding another silver medal in the Dave Mirra BMX Park Best Trick contest later in the weekend.

Kevin Peraza Returns to the BMX Park Podium

Kevin Peraza claimed bronze in Men's BMX Park after posting a 94.00 on his final run.

After winning Dave Mirra BMX Park Best Trick at X Games Salt Lake City 2025, Peraza arrived in Sacramento looking to return to the podium in the Men's BMX Park discipline after narrowly missing out on the medals in that event last year.

His bronze-medal run featured a can-can one-handed tire grab, Superman seat grab, barspin transfer to wallride toboggan, 360 double downside tailwhip, big alley-oop air, no-handed pocket air, flair, truckdriver to tabletop, peg grind over the wagon wheel and an incredible flair tailwhip to fakie over the box jump.
