    Script:

    The X-Games meet at the Circuit of the Americas in Austin, Texas, came to a conclusion on Sunday (8th June) with finals for the BMX Park, Stadium Super Trucks, and men's and women's Skateboard Street competitions.

    The Stadium Super Trucks final had to be halted after Bobby Runyan Jr flipped his truck going over a ramp.

    The Californian driver's aggressive path on the ramp proving that bit too tight,

    Thankfully the driver appeared to escape unhurt.

    Mexico's Apdaly Lopez held off all other drivers to win in a time of 27 minutes 29 seconds, six seconds ahead of Sheldon Creed.

    In the BMX Park, local Texas star Chase Hawk scored an 89.66 run on his second attempt to take home the gold medal - the first of his X-Games career.

    Robby Gordon took bronze.

    Lacey Baker's first run of 90.66 was enough to give her a first career X-Games win in Skateboard Street.

    The 22-year-old American had two silvers and a bronze heading into Austin, but bettered Pamela Rosa (87.33) and Leticia Bufoni (86.33) to claim her maiden triumph.

    Meanwhile, Nyjah Huston won his sixth X-Games gold in the event after scoring an impressive 95.00 points from the judges for his second run.

    He was over seven points clear of second placed Luan Oliveira, who only managed 87.66.
