Patrick Evans won the gold medal in the Best Trick category at the 2026 X Games while riding the electric motocrosser "Stark Varg." The whip he pulled off during the competition has generated significant buzz.
I think it matters a great deal that an electric bike stood on a freestyle podium. Electric's naturally smooth torque delivery is actually an advantage for trick repeatability. Speaking through results rather than emotion, the Stark Varg's X Games win is a case that pushed motocross electrification a step forward.

What was the Stark Varg's peak output again — is it tuned specifically for freestyle?
It's originally a motocross spec, but switching power modes should let it show more freestyle-oriented character too.

Precisely because electric is so quiet, the visual impact of the tricks might stand out even more.
A best-trick gold medal on an electric motocrosser — just genuinely feels like the times have changed.
