Last week, ten skate shop teams from across the country squared off on the trade show floor of Surf Expo in Orlando, Florida, for the inaugural Bangers For Bucks skate contest. Brought to you by Eastern Skateboard Supply, Hurley, Vans, Kona Skatepark and Team Pain, Surf Expo’s Bangers For Bucks contest will take place on a new and specially designed course in the heart of the skateboard section of the show.

We went down to the expo last week and these guys were killing it! I would hate to be the judge for this contest, it was trick for trick. These guys were basically all Pro’s and you could tell this by their skating.  Below is the 1st and 2nd place shops with their crew.
