X Games 2017 - Street Finals Highlights. The Street event here at X Games was a wild one. I mean, I was looking through a camera the whole time trying not to fuck up, but I had a really hard time picking placings. I just felt like everyone was absolutely killing it...I wouldn't want to have been a judge for this one.

X Games 2017 - Dirt Qualifying Highlights.16 dudes battling it out for seven spots in the finals to join Kevin Peraza, James Foster, and Ben Wallace in the finals on Saturday. I'll let the runs speak for themselves...or maybe I'm just really tired.
I'm not gonna be factual, but in my opinion, this was the best vert event in recent history. Everyone rode well, the back and forth of Vince Byron and Jamie Bestwick made for a hell of a contest, and DMC was all right...that's good with me.
Monster Energy congratulates Kevin Peraza for his winning run on the BMX Park course at the inaugural X Games Minneapolis. The young rider made short work of the competition taking the victory in convincing fashion. This year X Games spared no expense in creating what many athletes are calling the best Park course in the long history of the games. Set inside the climate controlled US Bank Stadium in downtown Minneapolis, the deep bowls, unique features and silky smooth transitions afforded riders free reign to bring everything they had to the competition.
Unfortunately for the rest of the field, 22-years-old Kevin Peraza was on fire today. In a three run final, Peraza went to work right away bringing his tech street style to the big transitions of the park
