Heard about the latest craze in skateboarding competitions? It's called the Maloof Money Cup and there is $500,000 up for grabs ($100,000 for first palce).

The Maloof Brothers, famous for owning casinos and NBA teams, are now hosting a skateboard contest. Rob Dyrdek is designing the street course. Ryan Sheckler, Bob Burnquist, Andy Reyndols, Danny Way, and more are all competing. Some say it may be the best skate contest EVER.

i want to say yeah this is big. but im not gunna lie. I think pro skaters are under paid. $100,000 cant even get u a decent house. most are running for around $400,000+ and thats with a 2x4ft back yard and your naibor is within spitting distance
