The only reason not ALL of the X games sports are in the Olympics, is because not all of the X games sports are recognized as world sports (They are practiced around the world, not only in a few countries).
For example, snowboarding/skiing/cross country skiing are recognized as world sports, so they are in the Olympics. However, skateboarding, motocross, ect, are not, so they can't be competed on in a world level.
I remember hearing this somewhere, not sure where exactly.
