The X Games are back in town. Running from June 2-5, at the Circuit of the Americas (COTA) extreme athletes from all over the world will be descending upon Austin to compete in events such as "BMX Vert," "Moto X Freestyle," and "Skateboard Big Air."
Texas Orthopedics' trauma specialists will be on site at COTA to treat these fearless athletes if injuries occur. Common injuries they face include fractures, sprains and strains.
These orthopedic trauma specialists have covered the event since 2014 when the X Games first came to Austin.
"It is satisfying to meet and treat athletes involved in these non-traditional sports, experience their passion for the even, and appreciate the skill level they possess," says Dr. David Laverty.
The X Games is an annual extreme sports competition organized by sports broadcaster ESPN. Athletes vie for bronze, silver, and gold medals, as well as prize money from participating sponsors.
