First Street League Skateboard X Games Gold Goes to Nyjah Huston

The inaugural Street League Skateboarding(SLS) World Tour Pro Series event as part of the new X Games‘ global expansion took place today in the scenic Foz Do Iguacu, Brazil with much success and crowd excitement. The local countryman Luan Oliveira undoubtedly had the greatest crowd support, especially during the best trick section when he landed a nollie hardflip noseslide 360 shove-it that earned him a 9.7. Oliveira placed fourth overall, respectively. On the podium it was the Grizzly Gang leader Torey Pudwill in second, Mr. Smooth Sean Malto in second and the king of SLS himself, Nyjah Huston, took the win with tricks like 360 flip 5-0 and nollie heelflip backside lipslide to fakie.
