Maloof Money Cup NYC 2011 went off this past weekend. The finals were a head-to-head format with Greg Lutzka winning the cup and going home with $160,000 and Dennis Busenitz taking home $40,000 for runner up. This was Theotis Beasley's first Pro contest as Baker just turned him pro at the TWS skate awards. Congrats Theo!
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."
