Next Level Sports now ventures into the world of Red Bull for news on the X-Fighters and their aerial acrobatics from around the world.

Takings to the skies tonight the Red Bull X-Fighters battled it out in Madrid, Spain with Levi Sherwood claiming the title. Sherwood upset local favorite and defending champion Dany Torres by a single point, 87.5-86.5 in the head to head final round. 

Friday's victory was his second of the season, and Sherwood now holds the top spot in the overall standings with 230 points after just three of five events. He won the 2012 X-Fighters opener in Dubai, but has his work cut out for him on August 11 when the X-Fighters roar into Munich's Olympic Stadium.

Todd Potter, the previous leader was unable to compete in the finals in Spain due to an injury he suffered during practice. This coming after a victory in the previous event which was held in San Bernadino, Cali. With the option to have his lowest score dropped Potter is by no means out of the hunt. 

He sits five points behind second place Chilean rider Javier Villegas who is 80 points behind Sherwood.

Looking ahead to the final event in October fans can expect more of the same high flying tricks and action that they saw tonight.

Red Bull sponsors some of the biggest events in action sports, and the X-Fighters are no exception. The riders allow fans to get a taste of freestyle action even when the X-Games are not around.
