Seth traveled to Aspen for hiis 12th Winter X Games last week, looking to win his ninth xgames medal. He definitely didn't disappoint, finishing second to Aspen hometown hero Nate Holland in an absolutely thrilling final. Seth had the early lead in the race but a bit of trouble in the rollers slowed him down, and Holland took full advantage to win his fifth consecutive xgames gold. Check out the full results here, and watch the full race at the bottom of this post.
An X Games gold would have been nice and all, but Seth has his sites set on something bigger - namely a second Olympic Gold Medal in Vancouver on February 15. In a post race interview Seth said that getting edged out for the gold this weekend gives him just the motivation he needs to make a run at his second Olympic Gold.
We'll be posting regular updates here as the Olympics draw closer, and look for an update this week from the man himself while he prepares for Vancouver.
