If Spanky and Caswell had a baby, he might look and skate like the Top 10's resident Tasmanian Devil, Cameron Wetzlar. Cameron puts a hurting on all terrain at full speed. Carlsbad via Vegas, getting raw!

Looks like they're only picking "gnarly" dudes rather than people that are good at skateboarding this year.

He did some gnarly stuff, but I wasn't really overwhelmed with his video like I was with the other contestants so far.

There is more Bieber coverage on Slap than one would expect from a bunch of manboys arguing the minutiae of rollerboard stunts. Actually now that I type that it kinda makes sense.

i liked it...  dude doesn't get very technical but what he can do he hauls ass while doing it.  and dropping in off the top of a roof is just nuts.

well the two board sponsors are zero and real, so maybe thats why

i don't mind the gnarly dudes that are like rueben but the last two have been like every other dude who skates like that.

I don't think he had the best part by any means, but of the guys posted so far, I'd want to see this kid in SF the most. He skates fast and skates some sketchy shit, which are two things you need to be able to skate those spots well.
So is that kid from Carlsbad? If so, Cali count: 3/4

Well, lets start off by saying that Cameron is a filmer. And when he does skate, he skates tranny most of the time. And still gets it in the streets as well. The fact alone that he made it in the top 10 of this contest, and that he films more than he skates, says a lot. He skates fast, has a shit load of control, and would most likely impress you if you saw him skate in person at a park or a ditch spot. Not to mention how cool of a dude he is. Hell yeah Cameron! Good job, forget these haters on here.

That just goes to show how terrible the judging for these things are. Someone that's not even a skateboarder made it. Typical slap.

this year has been boring, everything i've seen so far, while difficult, has been expected....i like this guy the most, if not for the fact that he looks like he'll bomb like a champ and skate fucked up spots

I would hope nobody here besides cotg actually gives a fuck who wins.  I'm just happy to see different types of sick skating.

I care who makes it to the top 5. We get to see more from those guys in the episodes.
That's why I support this kid, I think he'd skate really well in the "finals" or whatever if its anything like last year. Take that kid to some fucked up hills and let him get raw!

While all these guys are good at skating, I wouldn't watch any of them in a video or a web clip of them more than once.

This guy kinda looks like Adrian Lopez with a couple more tricks.

If this were a section in a local video, or his part for a shop release I would be pumped on the guy, but up against the ridiculously high standard in a competition like this, I found this just didn't come up to par.

Don't get me wrong I really enjoyed it but I don't get what the Gipper was saying about being so excited to see him skate SF, other than the speed he seems more limited than the other three so far.



Edit: sorry, its "Ronald Wilson Reagan" now, I should address you properly sir.

I think he said that after watching this video, he thinks Cameron could adapt to whatever fucked up spot San Francisco has the easiest. It's a fair point.
