Street League 2012- Who Will Prevail?

23 Jul

August 26th, 2012 marks the finals of Rob Dyrdek’s Street League Skateboarding championship competition! 24 of the world’s greatest professional skateboarders are chosen to show off their skills.  When finals roll around, 8 skateboarders are left to compete. This competition is held annually May through August with $200,000 & the title of “Champion” on the line. Don’t worry, the losers get prize money as well.

Rob Dyrdek actually first came up with the idea of Street League about 7 years ago. Dyrdek’s determination helped his vision come to life resulting in a multi-million dollar business. He was able to bring Street League directly into the public’s homes, proving that skateboarding isn’t just a “street” thing. The first Street League competition was held in 2010 and now it is hitting its second year anniversary, gaining more and more popularity each year.

Who do you think will win this year? Most people’s money is on the 17 year old professional skateboarder, Nyjah Huston. He has snagged more that $650,000 in prize money and has won 6 of 9 Street League competitions. A huge accomplishment for this young man given his age and achievements. Will he prevail again this year??? There are some other big names in Street League that might ring a bell like Paul Rodriguez, Ryan Sheckler, Chris Cole, Chaz Ortiz, etc. Pretty hefty competition if you ask me. Currently Paul Rodriguez is on top of the leader boards, but the numbers can always change. So tune in onto ESPN2 on August 26th for the finals to see who wins the prize money and the title of Street League Champ!
