Founded by 20-year professional skateboarder and entrepreneur, Rob Dyrdek, Street League features 24 of the world's top street skateboarders competing exclusively for a groundbreaking $1.6 million prize purse.
In 2010, fans witnessed historical endings at each event with Nyjah Huston, Sean Malto, and Shane O'Neill all having to land their final trick to clinch the first place honors and $150,000 in prize money. When the dust settled, sixteen year-old Nyjah Huston was crowned the overall Street League champion.
The stakes are being raised for the 2011 series with the addition of a winner-takes-all Championship on August 28th. Only the top ten Street League pros will qualify to compete for $200,000 and the Street League Championship watch and ring -- the largest first place prize in skateboarding history. Winners of the first three stops will have a golden ticket directly to the Championship event with the seven other championship contenders being determined by overall ranking.
Adding to the excitement, the series will introduce section elimination during the finals. Two riders with the lowest scores will be eliminated in each section, reducing the field from ten finalists to six for the final big section at each event.
To purchase tickets for the Series and for more information please visit www.streetleague.com.
