After a weekend of amazing skating, John Rattray, the flying Scotsman, earned himself a second place finish after he destroyed the street course with his high octane skating. He also brought home 15g’s. Not a bad day at the office what so ever. Congratulations John. Shuriken Shannon also finished with a respectable 12th place and a $1,000 at his first ever pro contest. Congrats. For photos and videos from the weekend check out the Skatepark of Tampa site and the Transworld site.
