KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) — Nyjah Huston has won his second straight Street League Skateboarding contest and another $150,000 check.

The 16-year-old, from Davis, Calif., had been one trick from elimination in the first section Sunday before hanging on. He and Chris Cole, Chaz Ortiz and Sean Malto were neck-and-neck for the top spot before Huston landed a nollie inward heel flip off the top of the Big Section on his last try to take the top spot.

Cole finished second, Ortiz third and Malto fourth. Ryan Sheckler was fifth.

Huston, the 2010 Street League champion, won the opening stop of this year’s tour in Seattle last month.
