Huston made it back-to-back wins in 2011after he came from behind to win at stop #2 in Kansas City. After being on the brink of elimination in the first section, Huston battled his way back landing a huge Nollie Inward Heel Flip off the top of the Big Section on his last attempt to take the top spot.
Huston has managed to stack up a solid career earning in just 2 events adding another $150,000 dollars boosting his 2011 season total to $315,000.
As you can imagine he had some positive words to say about Street League after the contest, "I'm just super happy I was able to win two stops in a row. Street League is by far the best skating contest ever and looking forward to the next stop in Glendale."
Chris Cole made a strong run at the win but came up short finishing 2nd followed by Chaz Ortiz who rounded out the top 3. Local boy Sean Malto successfully returned to competition after an injury that held him out of the first stop. He managed to take home forth place.
Not all was lost for 5th place finisher Ryan Sheckler who won the $15,000 best trick award when he landed a Caballerial Kick Flip in the Big Section for 9.4 points.
