The final results surely show who was throwing down big time, but the top 3 could have gone any way. Chris Cole deserved 1st place no doubt, but this could have been a 3 way or 4way tie. Nyjah was being Nyjah and one upping everyone’s lines with huge gaps and rail tricks like no other. Word has it Tommy Sandoval was launching HUGE tricks, large, tech and gnar shit everywhere. Chris Cole is the man! This guy must skate with a checklist in his head because he literally does EVERY trick in the book. Cole is so good and now… he is instantly $100k richer, not that skateboarding hasn’t paid up for him already. Young gunner Torey Pudwill won the “video game” award with tricks that normal riders just don’t do, ever. Nollie flip back lip on the fatty four set?!! Maloof Money Cup is the event the big names and the newcomers alike all skate as progressive as they can because the course is so sick and exclusive and there is so much money on the line.
Video killers Filmer X and Duncan Barnes have got the evidence on video and the edits will be pouring in ASAP. Have you seen the edits on the site so far?!! Crazy, next level tricks going down all over the custom cement course. The Maloof course was designed after famous skate spots the most of these pros spend time filming on, so the size and angles of the features are somewhat familiar for some. We’re stoked on the Maloof Money Cup, stoked that we got some of the first ever videos online on our site and super stoked that we have friends like X and Dunks down there getting it done for all to enjoy!
