Description: Flashback to April 20, 2013. X Games has gone global and after winter stops in Aspen and Tignes, we dipped down to Brazil for X Games Foz do Iguaçu 2013. On day three, Kyle Baldock rallied to his first X Games medal in BMX Park.

"I can't tell you how I pulled it together," the Gold Coast native said right after the victory, highlighted by tailwhip flairs, corked 900s, and a backflip 360 early in the event. "Practice was pretty hard for me because I don't ride courses like this. But seeing everyone throw down made me want to get out there. And to actually pull it together? Against Pat [Casey]? I have no words. I'm going home the happiest Aussie ever."

Pat Casey stalked Baldock for much of the final jam session with stylish barspin flairs and double tailwhip 270 transfers. But during his final push for the top of the podium, Casey lost his line and settled for the silver medal.

Dennis Enarson returned to the BMX Park course with his brand of fast and stylish park riding and led the finals for most of the jam session. Near the end of the jam, Enarson hung his back wheel on a bowl air. He declined his final run of the contest, but his score held up to earn him the bronze medal.

If you were there, this was one BMX Park comp to remember, and in case you missed it, enjoy this trip down memory lane!
