X-Games Hits Dubai

E365 -- Who says the middle east is only good for oil and, um, camels. Ok, nobody, but they definitely wouldn't have been saying it if they'd been at the recently held X-Games in Dubai!

News is kinda slow coming in from the desert and all, but we've still got the lowdown on who placed where in the competition.
