"It's the biggest action sports event in the world," said Kevub Peraza, a X Games gold medalist and BMX competitor.
"I was a kid dreaming big, picking up a BMX bike like everyone else," Peraza said. "And now I'm here after many, many years of hard work and sacrifice."
"I used to come to Sacramento all the time when I first started riding BMX," Ducarroz said.
"Once you drop in, I feel like the crowd kind of goes away," Ducarroz said. "You really zone in on what's in front of you, and for me, I'm trying to concentrate to nail everything."
"This takes some real time to put together," said MoonPay X Games spokesperson Kevin O'Connor. "We've been on the ground for almost 30 days now"
"Sacramento is the first-ever kickoff of the MoonPay X Games league, so this is our inaugural event... There's a $500,000 prize purse on the line," O'Connor said. Hosting the games is expected to be a multi-million dollar economic boost for Sacramento, with nearly 5,000 hotel room nights booked.
So when it comes to world-class competition this weekend, X marks the spot right here in Sacramento.
The games start Friday at 3 p.m., with single-day general admission tickets costing $39. There's also a concert with electronic music DJ Kaskade at night.
