The final round of Street League in Newark, New Jersey, was a culmination of perseverance from Paul Rodriguez, and Nyjah Huston's hunger to regain the title back from 2011 Champion, Sean Malto. As the quality of skating escalated, Malto was unable to fend off the competition, was knocked out and would finish 3rd overall. Once again, the competition was stepped up in the Best Trick Section, where Rodriquez blew away the judges with a Nollie Crooked Grind to Late Front Foot Flip out, extending his lead into the Big Section.
