Ha! Who said you can’t be as good as pros? A construction worker from Hawaii, Venton Siliado of ‘Ewa Beach, won a longboard competition, defeating Ned Snow. Two months ago, Snow placed second in the “official” World Longboarding Championship at Costa Rica.

This time, Siliado, won the “unofficial” World Longboarding Championships, among 20 other longboard surfers from Hawaii and cashed 2.000 US Dollar as price. Snow was second, again.
