Javier was ripping as he took the wins for both best pro of the event and he also won the Heroin obstacle as well earning him a total of 7500 euros, not bad for a days worth of skateboarding. Also teammate Sammy Winter was there killing it and helped the Cliche team get 2nd place for best team earning the team 10000 euros to be split up. Congrats to Javier again for displaying some great skating and taking the cake.
