A new medal event for X Games 16, Real Street is the first contest of its kind. Twelve of the top individual pros in street skating have filmed 60-second video parts on street terrain for X Games. ESPN will be drop two parts a week for the six weeks leading up to the X Games, beginning June 21. When the final two parts drop July 25, you'll have one week to vote for the fan favorite (the winner gets $2,500). Then, on Aug. 1, all 12 video parts will air on the final day of the X Games 16 telecast, and a panel of pros -- Pat Duffy, Ed Templeton, Jamie Thomas and Geoff Rowley -- will choose the winning part and award the skater $50,000 and an X Games gold medal.

The 17th annual ESPY Awards Show was held Wednesday night at the Nokia theater in Los Angeles, where Shaun White took honors for Best Male Action Sport Athlete. This marks the fifth straight year in a row he has won the award.

Other athletes nominated this year included surfing's Kelly Slater, skateboarding's Ryan Sheckler, and motocross rider James Stewart. Unlike the other nominees, White is the only athlete to compete professionally in two sports, snowboarding and skateboarding, which may have played a deciding factor.

Roxy rider Torah Bright was also nominated for Best Female Action Sport Athlete, but it was surfing's Maya Gabeira who took the award in this category.

The show, hosted by Samuel L. Jackson, will be televised on ESPN and ESPN HD on Sunday, starting at 9 p.m. ET.
