2006 Vans Downtown Showdown Recap And Reults:
The 2nd Vans Downtown Showdown was held on the Paramount Studios back lot Sunday with the world's top street skaters attacking custom-built obstacles nestled against a New York City backdrop. The Girl board crew claimed team honors and $30,000 while Real's Nick Dompierre won $5,000 as top am and Girl's Rick McCrank was named the top pro of the Showdown and pocketed $10,000.

The Vans Downtown Showdown featured many skaters who rarely take part in contests from Baker, Birdhouse, Element, Enjoi, Foundation, Girl, Real and Toy Machine and with the $85,000 purse, there was more than just board company honor on the line.

Each skateboard team submitted designs for a custom obstacle with the top four chosen and built to that team's specifications. Skateboard teams then chose three riders, consisting of at least one pro and one am, to jam on each of the four features.

Here's a break down of the best performances of the day:
