I was right about one of my picks: Sandro Dias won the vert contest in Prague at World Cup Skateboarding's 15th Annual Mystic Sk8 Cup this weekend. Here are the vert results:

Speaking of Dias: Here's something I've been saying all along, ever since skating with him at a Grind For Life demo in Orlando two years ago at the Orlando Skatepark... Sandro RIPS on concrete. Bowl results:

I picked Danny Cerezini to win the street contest, just based on the preregistered skaters list, but he didn't make the cut for Finals, finishing way down in 26th. Whoops! Still... 4 Brazilians in the top 10 puts me pretty close to the mark in my prediction of Brazilian domination. Jereme Rogers won it. Street results:
Street
1. Jereme Rogers - USA $8,000
2. Daniel Vieira - BRA $4,000
3. Diego Oliveira - BRA $2,000
4. Rodil Jr. - BRA $1,500
5. Phil Zwijsen - BEL $1,200

7. Axel Cruysberghs - BEL $800
8. Milton Martinez - ARG $750
9. Deigo Fiorese - BRA $700
10. Tomas Vintr - CZE $650
Lacey Baker won the Ladies contest. I love this podium lineup: Baker, Evelien Bouilliart, and Lyn Z Adams-Hawkins are three of my favorites. Never heard of the other two, but stoked to know there are even more ladies out there killing it than I knew of.
