Reaction to this year's Maloof Money Cup has been through the roof, and deservedly so. But if you were lucky enough to catch the webcast this past weekend, you already knew that, didn't you?
The contest, which had a truly next level cash purse of $450,000 US, took place July 10th to 12th in Costa Mesa, California. You can catch the highlights over at the FUEL TV site. Transworld Skateboarding also has extensive coverage here. No doubt a pile of clips will show up on YouTube soon enough as well. In fact, there are a few to be found there already.
Chris Cole took first place in street, solidifying his spot on top of the skate world right now. Adam Dyet took best trick with a kickflip backside tailslide, Alex Perelson took first on the mega ramp, and Leticia Bufoni won the ladie's category.
