panna_mmc.jpgWhat a weekend!  Maloof Money Cup might have taken the cake of all cakes with this event.  Entire concrete street course, the most amount of money ever, top pro's from everywhere in the world, from all the best teams!  Talk about incredible!

Jereme Rogers completely destroyed it with every variation down every spot, during the semifinals and finals.

Feeble, switch feeble, smith, switch smith, it was back and fourth and Jeremy was running it! 

Cruising through the semi-finals, Jeremy was prepped for the finals.  Again, blasting trick for trick, Jeremy was on the program.  For the efforts, Jereme Rogers was awarded 6th place and a cool $5,000. (nollie nosegrind: picture right)



calipark.jpgFor those who don't know, Maloof Money Cup, is known to be the largest contest in history, with a payout of 100k.. come on, thats insane.

It was held on Friday, Saturday and Sunday, July 11th - 13th, in Orange County Fairgrounds.  Today was a sunny day filled with BBQ smell from the venders behind the course.

The am's went first, and they completely destroyed it. With the results not fully finished I know that Scooter Decenzo and Evan Smith  (pictured right) qualified for the semi-finals tomorrow. 

Unfortunately Ryan Decenzo (Scooter Decenzo's brother) didn't qualify, but he went to town on the 16 stair.  Lipslide, crooks, feeble, smith.. what else could this kid do! (Ryan Decenzo: lipslide pictured below)
