The Maloof Money Cup 2009 Hits Hard this Sunday
Thursday, 16 July 2009


The Maloof Money Cup, the ultimate showdown for pro and amateur skateboarding, turns two. This year, they are offering a small fortune in prize money for the contenders. To the tune of $450,000.

 

 

The three-day competition, which boasts the largest purse in the history of professional skateboarding, rolled into the Orange Country Fairgrounds in Costa Mesa, California last weekend and hosted three professional competitions— Men’s and Women’s Pro Street, Men’s Pro Vert and the U.S. Amateur Championships.

 

The event, created by Joe Maloof, included an innovative new street course designed by some of the top names in the skateboard industry and a 40,000 square-foot interactive festival village featuring action sport retailers and skateboarding activities.

 

All of the street legends and icons made an appearance to the event, including Paul Rodriguez, Terry Kennedy, Ryan Sheckler, Geoff Rowley, Chris Cole, Erik Ellington, Nyjah Huston, Eric Koston, Greg Lutzka, Chaz Ortiz and Braydon Szafranski.

 

NBC will be broadcasting the Maloof Money Cup this Sunday, July 19th from 2-3 EST.
