Extreme History of the Day: The 2012 Winter X Games came to a close tonight with two back-to-back moments of historical significance.
27-year-old Heath Frisby earned himself a gold medal in the Snowmobile Best Trick Final by performing the first ever in-competition Snowmobile Front Flip.
His accomplishment was slightly overshadowed a short while later when pro-snowboarder Shaun White picked up his latest gold medal along with the first-ever perfect score in SuperPipe.
Watch Frisby make history above, and then watch White make some more history below.

“We have had good matches over the years,” Federer said. “I enjoy playing him. The crowd really gets into it, which is nice. We have a lot of respect for each other, which is good too.”
“I hope it inspires future generations or other players, you know, being nice to each other on the court and all that stuff.”
sportsmanship (:
