EXTREEEEEEEEME! That’s what you’ll hear all day Friday and Saturday at the brand new Bank of Kentucky Center at Northern Kentucky University. The Action Sports World Tour will stop in the Cincinnati area for the first time since 2005 when it hosted an extreme sports competition at Sawyer Point. This year’s contests include BMX and skateboarding, with a freestyle motocross demonstration thrown in. With $75,000 at stake, expect some of the world’s best to perform extreme stunts like the back flip, the nollie and the double Donkey Kong. Live music from Rock bands Theory of Deadman and Kardinal Offishall, whose choruses double as inspiration to “go big” or “live like there’s no tomorrow” will also be on hand. $60 for VIP; $30 for ramp seats; $15 adults; $7.50 military and children.
