X Games Real Street is back this year with two of our very own competing against a grouping of some of the most talented skateboarders out today. Roughneck General Fred Gall & Roughneck OG Bobby Worrest are going to submit a 60 minute video part to be in the running for both a X-Games gold medal and $50,000. After the videos air during the X Games broadcast on ESPN2 on Sunday, July 1st, a panel of judges will pick the winning X Games medal part.

But first, all 16 videos will debut on xgames.com/realstreet on June 5th, and you will be able to vote in a tournament-style bracket for your favorite part each week leading up to X Games LA 2012. The skater who racks up the most votes from skate fans wins $50,000. The fan Favorite Award is in addition to the judge’s gold medal and prize money.
