Tucson native Kevin Peraza cleaned up in the BMX disciplines at the 2023 X Games July 21-23 in Ventura, California. Peraza, 28, won the BMX Street event Friday, making him the first X Games BMX competitor to own gold medals in the street, park and dirt disciplines; but he wasn't done there, adding a silver Saturday and another gold (the fifth of his career) Sunday.  A sold out crowd watches on as Tucson native Kevin Peraza does a 360 tailwhip off of an obstacle into a nearly 10-foot drop to the ramp to earn his second gold medal of the weekend on the last day of X Games in Ventura, California, on July 23rd, 2023.
