11. WINNER’S NAME: To obtain copy of the Winners list, send a self-addressed stamped envelope to: Maloof Money Cup attn: Design-A-Deck Contest  92 Corporate Park, Ste C-763, Irvine, CA 92606.

(Irvine, Calif. – February 3, 2011) – Today, Maloof Skateboarding announces that Vans – the original action sports footwear company grounded in youth, authenticity and individual style – extends their partnership, returning as the presenting sponsor for the 2011 Maloof Money Cup, the world’s greatest skateboarding event.

"Vans is such an enthusiastic partner in the Maloof Money Cup because it's the one contest that shows skateboarding in its most progressive state with the visibility that top-shelf skateboarding deserves," said Vans' Vice President of Marketing Doug Palladini. "That we leave a new park behind for local skaters to enjoy after the contest is perhaps even more meaningful."
