The contest will be broadcast live in South Africa, and then around the world in 173 countries and 367 million homes.&lt;\\/p&gt;\\n&lt;p&gt;\\u201cTo see such a diverse group of skaters represented at a single event is pretty remarkable,\\u201d said Ryan Clements of CA PROductions, part of the event management team and one of the announcers of the Kimberley Diamond Cup. \\u201cThe contest will be using a head-to head jam format, which is a great way to get the skaters to push their limits and literally battle it out, giving everything they\\u2019ve got. It\\u2019s going to be an incredible contest to watch with nonstop shredding from beginning to end. This is a huge prize in the skateboarding world, with $100,000 cash up for grabs, the skating is going to be insane. And to get to do it all in South Africa is just incredible. I can\\u2019t wait to see how it all goes down!\\u201d&lt;\\/p&gt;\\n&lt;p&gt;The buildup to the Kimberley Diamond Cup will include two pro tours consisting of some of the top pros in the industry. One pro tour will start in Cape Town and one in Johannesburg and each tour will work its way to Kimberley, with the pros giving skate clinics, demos, autograph signings and building excitement for the world championships in the small townships along the way.&lt;\\/p&gt;\\n&lt;p&gt;Kimberley Diamond Cup replaces the Maloof Money Cup world championships, which ended its run in South Africa last year. The new event, a partnership between the Northern Cape Provincial Government, World Skateboarding Grand Prix, and Kumba Iron Ore, was named in homage to the host city\\u2019s history as the location of South Africa\\u2019s first diamond mine and its distinction as \\u201cThe Diamond City.\\u201d&lt;\\/p&gt;\\n&lt;p&gt;For the latest news and information, visit &lt;a href=\\\"http:\\/\\/www.kimberleydiamondcup.com\\\" target=\\\"_blank\\\"&gt;kimberleydiamondcup.com&lt;\\/a&gt; or follow KDC on &lt;a href=\\\"https:\\/\\/twitter.com\\/KDiamondCup\\\" target=\\\"_blank\\\"&gt;Twitter&lt;\\/a&gt; and &lt;a href=\\\"https:\\/\\/www.facebook.com\\/KimberleyDiamondCup\\\" target=\\\"_blank\\\"&gt;Facebook&lt;\\/a&gt;.&lt;\\/p&gt;\\n\""^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
