In one of the best nail-biting finishes in X Games history, 18-year-old Nyjah Huston stomped the last attempt of the entire comp to edge past Paul Rodriguez for gold at SLS X Games Barcelona 2013. But there was much more than a suspenseful ending at SLS in Barecelona. From adding to Street League's coveted 9 Club to insane skating from the likes of Chris Cole, Torey Pudwill, Sean Malto, Manny Santiago and more, SLS Barcelona was one for for the books. We've featured Nyjah's finish multiple times in highlight reels, but this is the full comp, start to finish. --- X Games is your premier destination for all things action sports, music, lifestyle and everything in between.

In 2013, X Games partnered with Street League to become the official sport organizer for all Men's Skateboard Street competitions at X Games international events in Brazil, Spain and Germany, along with the Los Angeles finals. Launched in 2010, SLS features 20 of the world’s best street skateboarders competing in an easy-to-follow, instant scoring format on one-of-a-kind concrete skate plazas with the largest prize purse in skateboarding history at $2 million. And although it's been tough to celebrate the highest caliber of competitive street skateboarding the past year, we thought this might be a nice trip down memory lane.

Skateboarding legend Paul “P-Rod” Rodriguez (@prod) has been in the skate game for a long time now. Having been pro for almost two decades, Rodriguez has skated for some of the biggest companies in skateboarding (Girl, Plan B), before starting his own brand Primitive in 2014. In just over five years, Primitive has become one of the biggest hardware and soft goods brands in skateboarding, with a stacked pro team and clothing collaborations with brands such Rick and Morty, Kikkoman Soy Sauce, Dragon Ball Z and more. But that is not the full P-Rod story. He was also among one of the first skateboarders to partner with Nike SB, and has his signature on more than a few Nike SB shoes. At the time, the decision to partner with Nike SB was difficult for Rodriguez. But Rodriguez traces his roots with Nike back to his earlier years, when he wore baby Jordans. With a history of Nike influence in the Rodriguez family, P-Rod signed on to Nike SB and has been a driving force behind the team for over a decade now. Recently, Clinton Yates (@clintonyates) of ESPN’s Now Or Never sat down with P-Rod to talk skate progression, the influence of skateboarding in the 2020 Tokyo Olympics and some of his favorite Nike shoes in his own personal Mt. Rushmore of Nike shoes. Where is the P-Rod 1 in that lineup? Watch the interview and learn. SUBSCRIBE ► http://xgam.es/YouTube X Games has been spreading the shred in action sports since 1995.
