The new season — dubbed "Stakes are High" — premieres 5 p.m. Monday, Feb. 20. The reality show follows a scrappy pack of boys at a summer camp for skaters and BMXers.
By shifting to a challenge format, the season hopes to induce new drama, at least that's what the season five trailer insinuates. "Team Black" is pitted against "Team Yellow" for the grand prize trip to Woodward Bejing.
