X GAMES Reveals Real Series 2017 Competition Lineup

A forum for the world's best riders and filmers to create premium video content, the Real Series brings together the worlds of competitive ACTION SPORTS and core video parts. Originally launching with the Real Street competition in the summer of 2010, the Real Series has now grown to include six video competitions each year - adding Snowboard, Ski, BMX, Moto and Wakeboard disciplines into THE LINEUP - due its popularity within the ACTION SPORTS community.

This year, Real Mountain will extend the series even further by debuting a digital-only competition featuring seven North American big mountain ski resorts. Aspen Snowmass, Jackson Hole, Mammoth Mountain, Revelstoke, Snowbird, Squaw Valley and Whistler Blackcomb will each submit 90-second videos showcasing their resort-sponsored athletes skiing and SNOWBOARDING in-bounds terrain and natural features. The CONTEST will run on XGames.com in November 2017. Fans can join the conversation using #RealMTN.
