The Maloof All City Contest is a head-to-head jam format contest that brings the best skaters from all over South Africa together to battle it out for R14,000 in cash prizes. The 10 teams that qualified sent in 2-minute videos on maloofmoneycup.com in order to secure their spot in the All City Championships. Teams came from all over SA, representing 3 teams from Cape Town, 2 Johannesburg teams, Pretoria, East Coast, Bloemfontein, Mafikeng, and the home team, Kimberley.

Our all star panel of judges and emcees including Lizard King on the mic, Bryan Herman on the clock, along with veteran street killer Felix Arguelles, Manny Santiago, Braydon Szafranski, Justin Brock, and SA street champs Warrick Delport and Wandile Msomi held it down. There was too much rad skating to comprehend, including some insane shredding from 20SK8 in Cape Town and the East Coast team representing Jeffreys Bay. In the end, it was Team Plankie from Cape Town in 3rd place winning R2000, and Team Johannesburg in 2nd winning R4000. Brendan Jack Dyamond’s annihilation on the medium section and Adam Woof’s nollie flip down the big 4 were sick, but unfortunately not enough to pull them into 1st place.

Even though Sechaba the Bakersman from Team Alliance (Johannesburg) got injured early in the game, Ofentse Ramakanye took charge and skated 2 sections each round. Teammates Sam Khumalo and Dlamini Dlamini also held it down. In the end, Team Alliance took home the All City title and R8000 along with all the perks that MMC provided. Dlamini Dlamini’s switchd lipslides down the big 4 rail along with his frontside flips were a few tricks that sealed the deal for Team Alliance. Mad respect to our guest pro panel of judges and to all the skaters for making the All City Contest a success! See you next year!
