What do you get when you drop a waffle in the sand? No, not a Tommy Sandoval, that's what you get when you draw an oval in the sand. When you drop a waffle in the sand you get a sandy eggo, get it San Diego. And ovals drawn in the sand, and sandy eggos, both apply to this San Diego native, Chula Vista to be exact.

Tommy Sandoval has been turning heads for a few years now. One moment that sticks out is his performance at the 2009 Maloof Money Cup, yeah he finished second in street and everything, but what really sticks out for me is the gap ollie to backside 50-50 across the big wall that he was attempting. To pull it off he would of had to land one of the biggest 50-50 re-entrys I've seen. Not to mention, the gap to 50-50 part, it was pretty damn insane. Everyone was on their feet from Koston to Rowley, and everyone in between. Anyway, here's a 10 Tricks video clip courtesy of www.blackboxdist.com:

Street League 2012: Nyjah Huston Wins Kansas City... Again

Street League's instant scoring allowed for the possibility of pressure-packed moments, but very few times did the skateboarders deliver

The 2012 Street League season kicked off in Kansas City this past weekend as it did last year-- with skateboard technician Nyjah Huston taking home $150,000. Huston's ability to land difficult and technical tricks consistently makes him almost unbeatable in the current Street League format.

"It was a hard one tonight, that's for sure!" said Nyjah. "I definitely had to work for it. I love the challenge, though, and to skate with these guys is great."

Street League..
