Sponsor Break: Turf Wars 2024

This is an emergency broadcast. After finally laying the building blocks to settle the debate of East Coast vs. West Coast, both areas defined by the idX Map have shown a push towards the 50000 Bisk prize. Here is a quick summary of the rules:

Let the best coast win. We've made one slight alteration as 1 Edit = Number of Likes on idX or number of hits in an edit (which ever one is the most - we've adjusted accordingly to the standings). Finally, all points tallied as of April 5th have been.....

Here are the current standings as of Tuesday, April 9th at 3:30 PM MST which are viewable live on idX:

Handling the March Madness on idX

March Madness, Marchasaurus, March Mania, call it whatever you want. Indubitably, the app has seen some uploads in March that might only be able to be described by Future. We try to equate and recap the madness by relating everyone who uploaded in March to a current or former basketball player on idX.

Dribble Drive Terrain Park Penetration

full_mast - Dennis RodmanWhen we think of full_mast, we really couldn't think of anyone other than Dennis Rodman who embodies that energy.

‍cravingcolt888 - Steve Nash

‍✅ Facilitating the East Coast rise up from all areas of the world
✅ Pushing progression on the rails like no other
✅ Giving dev feedback and new ideas
✅ Canadian

We think this checks out.

‍thelifty - Jackie Moon

‍Always clowning, never stopping.

‍shady - Shaq

‍We think the paint to Shaq is the Woodward "Chillington" Park to shady. Absolutely dominant and unstoppable on the rails.

‍ethan.connell - Anyone of the Monstars from Space Jam

‍The Monstars did some incredible things like big dunks from 50 feet away. Likewise, ethan.connell seems to be sending it about 50 feet every time he's at Woodward.

‍conyayeasttt - Calvin Cambridge

‍We're pretty sure conyayeasttt said "Make Me Like T Rice" when he sent it off this 30 foot cliff.

‍novybbg - Allen Iverson

‍A master of all traits and a student of the game that puts others others on the map (through filming). Sounds about right.

‍gutturalhawk3 - Caitlin Clark

‍Caitlin Clark is the best women's basketball player right now and there is no better woman on idX than gutturalhawk3.

‍Prestonski1 - Kevin Garnett

‍We're not sure of the exact similarities here, but both seem to play significant time in Minnesota so it seems to check out.

‍chictoucan7 - Derrick Rose
‍Both Chicago Area Legends.

‍n8 - Brian Scalabrine
‍The glue guy that every app and basketball team needs.

‍bake_groot - Ja Morant

‍The hype man on the court or in the park with all of the idX edits being dropped. Sometimes I can't even tell the difference.

‍Skian - Wilt Chamberlin

‍We think Skian could hang a hundred tricks on any park in the world any day of the week.

‍conordavis - James Harden

‍I fear the beard and whatever comes out of Mountain Creek

‍blendbuster2 - Will Smith from the Fresh Prince of Bel-Air

‍All we know is that blendbuster2 is hitting any feature in the streets and according to the Fresh Prince of Bel-Air theme song, that means he's up to no good or just pushing his progression (pretty sure those are the lyrics but don't quote me on that).

‍jusluca - Jimmy Butler

‍The electric styles filming, skiing, and hooping all seem to match.

‍foxh3aps - Victor Wembanyama

‍Things we know about foxh3aps: he's dropped a Dub Cork 10, a Fat Cork 7 to eating shit, an Unat Cork 9, Locally Developed (best edit we've seen on idX this year), and has come onto idX with full effect. Just like 7'6 Victor Wembanyama.

‍jamison.tidwell - Steph Curry

‍I mean, both guys can do it all.

‍flamingo_plug - Air Bud

‍Arguably the best to ever do it, everyone needs a team player like Air Bud or a plug at their local mountain/hill.

‍marco_sskiing13 - Drake

‍Drake isn't a basketball player, but he does big things and is from Toronto (I think). Same with this Sw 5 from marco_sskiing13.

‍ewillsnowboards - Kevin Durant

‍Just as Kevin Durant plays under the big lights, he also dropped insane games at Rucker Park in NYC. Likewise, ewillsnowboards is doing the same thing in his backyard.

‍SlightlySeasoned - Lou Williams

‍idk. SlightlySeasoned came into this email as I was writing it, but the name reminds me of Lemon Pepper Lou. Hopefully you're not going to Magic City on a Monday, but seasoning Blue Mountain to it's core.

‍skiingisfun - Metta World Peace

‍Creating World Peace through 1 180 at a time is always respectable in our book.

idX Devology

After this current blog, I think I just said "make me like Mike" as I opened up my laptop. Anyways, hoping our devs say the same thing and that we're dropping things this week. If you haven't checked it out, peep the Snowbrains Article that was written about idX by Jesse Orlean. It is a good one!
