The berrics is actually reasonably watchable when berras not involved

HAHA.. I cant get over how fun that place looks.
-
i found that funy, usually i cringe
-
that was entertaining, how in the hell did berra let this get published
-
johan is sick.
but is it really going to be flow vs pro or reg vs goofy like koston said in the end?
hoping to see a lot of cool flow dudes either way..
-
Team skate would be pretty sick, so 2 to a team, team members take it in turn to set when it's there turn, they when trying a set trick can choose which of them want to try it, with the usual robots tho could image games to get pretty drawn out.
-
That was pretty funny.

flow vs pro would be sick, but regs vs goofs would bring more money

Didnt etnies used to do a regs vs goofy cotest?

That they did, I think the pro vs. flow would def. be different. even Am vs. Pro would work.

They should bring it back. Pro vs. flow would definitely be fun to watch if anything just to see how far things have gone.
-
after the first 2 i was so over it..im really surprised this shit entertains people or even gains any interest especially here in slap.
-
Another snoozefest.
-
I really hope its all new faces and not the same people we see in all the bbatb, I wanna see names like brad cromer, and dave bachinsky in them! that would kill!

yeah i really got over it when the finals would be ; torey pudwill, p-rod, shane o'neil, chris cole and mike mo- these dudes are amazing but i dont wanna see them playing games of skate over and over.. some new names would be sick.
-
man, if it was flow vs pro i actually would have watched BATB... kids these days got crazy tricks. goofy vs regs is just corny
-
I'm sure with all the corporate money involved in Berrics sponsorship, people affiliated with any company that has given money to the Berrics will be obligated to be involved. So, all the people we have seen before. Mountain Dew, Nike, and Monster riders. Those companies aren't going to pay for a giant warehouse in LA if they don't get promotion out of it, and BATB is easily the biggest event they hold. I know it's the only time of the year I check out the Berrics, as is probably the case with most skateboarders.
-

It was a dumb contest but itd be cool if they turned it into some wacky contest with weird rules and a crazy concrete park
-
would be cool if Mullen was in this time.
Sammy Baptista could ride either goofy or regs.

cept how do dey play, dey got no stance? sup wif havin 100% new name this year, dat be duh thung
-
flow vs. pro would be cool.
i'd love to see Gottwig and Blake Carpenter VS some of the lazy pros that dont put out footage. would be cool to see Antwuan get whooped by some flow trash, and Castillo too (even though i love the little guy)
-
however it would be anti climactic if a pro won though.
-
Steve Berra needs to actually get in it this time.

It is kinda stupid, but I love watching games of skate. It never gets old for me. I don't know why. I like flatground. Yeah...
-
^ agree
So I assume they are going with the pro/flow shit...? The whole skit was funny but it was unclear.
Goofy vs Regs is the same boring stuff. Seeing some flow kids kick ass would be awesome!
-
Did all of you fail school? The flow/pro thing was a joke. It's goofy vs regular jeez..
-
how about an all tranny skaters BATB id wanna see Hewitt vs Raybourn, Glifburg vs Drehobl... not p rod vs shane o'neal, mike mo vs pj ladd
-
last names A-M vs N-Z
-
"I think I see your footage in here, Flow Trash." I lost it. I like the flow vs pro idea. It's just cool to see how crazy consistent some of these guys are.
-
That was definitely a Grant Yansara production. Fucking comedy
-
i dont know how this still excites me
-
They should get rid of the rules and any trick counts. I'd rather see someone lose on a no-comply bigspin than a nollie 360 double flip.
-
flow vs. pro is actually interesting
for example: as far as i know, the following dudes are technically flow: cj tambornino, that yossi tannembaum dude, that lil shmatty dude, stephen lawyer
-
Games with flow guys are pretty interesting because theyre no expectations and you just wanna see what they got. Like this game:
Lil Will vs Shane O'Neill - Game of Skate (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VUryq3zytXk#)
I really hope they go flow vs. pro. The contest would be on some tampa am level shit and the pregame interviews might actually be interesting for once.
-
From what I understand Mr. Magnums himself, Jereme Rogers is playing against ZIGRAM23, Shane O'Neil.
-
wish there was a way they could work something out like teams, like the baker dudes vs. the creature dudes idk how it would work but would be interesting to get teams in there
-
I'm not going to watch the actual event, but that video was dope. By the way, those fucking signs hanging in the park are so lame, it brings me physical pain to think that someone spent money on them.
-
i've been saying since about battle 3 I want them to throw away the rules. Any fucking trick goes. The weirder the tricks the better. go fucking wild with late flips and stupid shit. A little bit sketchy? its ok it was late flip flop no comply. Assemble the 1992 New Deal team and throw them into the mix, whatever. I don't know make it fun. The only game I remember out of ALL of them is the Chris Cole vs Mike V game and thats because things got a bit fun and goofy.
I've seen enough perfect style flatground kickflips to last a life time. They look nice and all but i'm bored of these games.
I can't even remember who won the last one.... or any of them to be honest.....
-
I want them to roll a 20 sided dice with a feature of the park picked out for each number. Whatever they roll,that's what the game is played on. Anything goes.
-
Almost didnt watch this because I thought it would be the same old thing. Flow vs Pro is a great idea, GvsR with the same dudes yet again would be boring. And I have to say that Grant is the best thing to ever happen to the Berrics.
-

Some energydrinkdudes probably think they invested money on them
-
I wish they'd make it so that the whole park was game. Handrails. Quarter pipes. Whatever. I know the game of S.K.A.T.E. is traditionally flat ground...but why?
-

I like this idea too, but i think they'd consider it too risky. nobody wants to try to some crazy trick on a handrail they've never done before. most dudes would probably just take a letter and it wouldn't be as exciting. They def should do a ledge game of skate though
-
SKATE ro sham bo, old skool style. Everytime you miss a trick you gain a letter and a kick in the balls.
-
battle to the death.
you lose. you die...or catch antwuans fade
-
The whole "team" aspect they've been running doesn't really add anything in my opinion. Switch the game up altogether and do it on a flatbar.

Battle at the Berrics: Sharks VS Jets.
A 12 week tournament of pro skaters, knife fighting while tied to their opponents' wrist. I might actually tune in for that.

i would like to see a game of skate on a curb or ledge

AFTER MONTHS OF YOU GUYS SENDING IN IDEAS AND HOURS OF DELIBERATION WE CAME UP WITH............................ GOOFY VS REG

No it wouldn't. The dude is on the level of Todd Falcon.

What was the shit that went down with Sewa(?), did he need to get a flight and they re-recorded some tricks with out him there.

ooooh what. I actually laughed

Raemers and Trapasso vs Mullen and Rattray, that sounds fun.

Brad Fucking Cromer's in it. I'm going to be watching.

the problem with the new roster and berrics in general is that they should either .
a) bring in new people that can actually compete with prod/pjladd/chris cole/morgan and the other powerhouses.
instead of bringing in new people that will get skunked and it will be boring as crap to watch.
b)if you're going to bring in new people make it an all new cast. I don't need to see pj ladd for the 20th time in one of these.
-
i was gonna NOT care about this but bastien salabanzi and jereme rogers are participating... imagine if it came down to the 2 of them ;D

I'm already callin the final 4 as Pj vs Chris Cole then PRod vs Shane O'neill. it'll be nice to see all the new people but I doubt they'll get far.
-
yes, just fuck berra. gonna watch those upcoming games:
mike mo v austyn gillette
Ishod v wes
-
Looking forward to Koston v Busenitz, Carlos Ribeiro v PJ, Cole v Dadd, Mike Mo v Aystyn.

busenitz ftw

I agree with most of these posts, I'm hyped cromer and wes kramer and manny are in it, but they should of used a whole new line up instead of 60 percent being people we've seen over and over again.
-
Some of the match ups look good. PJ vs Carlos Ribiero should be good, same with Shane O'Neil vs Jereme. They can both throw out equally techy shit. Cole vs. Keelan will be good but I don't know if Keelan has the weird tricks, I haven't seen the DGK video yet. Some stuff is straight up unfair, I think. Sewa vs. Manny and Felipe vs. David seem like shut outs, but I hope I'm wrong. Actually I don't give a shit who wins I just like watching it.
-
Koston vs Busenitz is gonna be great :) I also look forward to see what Bastien's flatground skills are like. When Flip was on the King Of The Road with him, he nailed many of those weird fliptricks :-*
-
Is it over? Who won?
-
J-Cass all day
-
i'm so bummed cromer's up against ortiz...
that little brown robot's had his special meter up since kickflipping that sixteen in dc's 'groundbreaking' video.
i'm gonna go re-watch lo-fi and hope for the best.
-
Looks like I'll be watching no more than 3 or 4 battles. I could think of a totally new BATB bracket with guys who you never see in this off the top of my head and who kids would probably be stoked to watch skate, I don't see why there's only like 3 new guys every time.
-
bummed they didnt go with the flow vs pro idea.
instead the same old stuff with the same old people. boring.

yada yada

Anyone else click full-screen or try to turn the volume down every single time the ad comes on and end up going to the DC site for a fraction of a second? I wonder how much ad revenue is by people accidentally clicking the links.

i'm curious how they are going to sort out titles for impossibles and 360 shuvs seeing as they always fuck up the rulings on those.

Goofy vs. Regular is such an unoriginal and boring concept. They should've just had no concept at all if they're gonna come up with such a lazy ass idea.

good game, surprising result. Ishod and Wes are both awesome.

Thank you Berrics for reminding me what tricks are being done. You can just tell their target audience is little kids who don't know what tricks are. The Berrics Sucks.

It seems like in every game, the dude with the better style gets eliminated. Who really wants to watch a Sewa vs Cole final...

I can find stuff at the Berrics that annoy me more (on another note, when did varial heels become shuvit heelflips?) :-*
-
They think we're imbeciles and that we dont know the tricks.
-
sucks that wes is inevitable that he has to play Sewa, which is lame. wes should win the whole thing.
-
Austyn would be cooler if he didn't look like that.
no
-
Naw, he would be steezier if he wasn't trying to bite Dylan's whole shabang
-
I like Austyn - but he seemed a bit high at the end (or maybe he just fell awkward) :-*
-
i watch the clips on my phone and cover the trick names with my thumb because its so fucking annoying to have on screen.
-
Austyn G can do/look/say whatever the hell he wants cause he skates like a god and spells his name with a "Y"

indeed, pressure flips win games ;D

At first I thought it was easy game for Ishod. No disrespect to Wes, I was just judging by the last BATB. Really wanted both dudes to move on, but I think I'm more stoked that Wes won. Yeah, I'm stoked about Wes.
-
hell yeah Wes, good shit
-
man i really wanted ishod to win this whole thing. he has shown that he has one of the biggest most consistent flat ground bag of tricks since the games he played with shane, and how he shut out the champ morgan smith.
dont get me wrong wes kremer is in my top 5 and now that he won hes prob gonna be the one i root for along w nick tucker.
-
fuck yeah pressure flips
-
Does anyone think austyn is steezing out those landing a bit? and i understand not giving a shit about winning or whatever, but you dont have to go out of your way to go super fast and eat shit on flat ground showing how much you dont give a fuck cuz "thats just how i skate bro"
-
The trick names is especially dumb because both riders are the same stance in these games, so its even that much less confusing.
Ledge skate would be cool, but length of grinds is an issue. Stairs or bump to bar could be done though.
-
I'm really just waiting patiently for Brad Cromer to beat Chaz Ortiz.

unfortunately I doubt that

Brad could have some tricks in the bag which Chaz can't do, I think it depends who wins the rock-paper-scissors.
-
Brad is super consistent, but Chaz is a certified street league robot soo...
and it seems to be coming down to who has the oddball (only i do this) trick at his disposal come T.
I'd like to see Cromer take it.
-
how funny would it have been if nyjah won the last one? jesus... mike mo almost let him take it too.
moose is going to slay salabanzi, and i hope cory kennedy is actually having a good day so he shuts everyone the fuck out...cuz lets face it we all know the dude is the best, hes just lazy and doesnt try hard enough. i noticed austyn had the same kind of attitude, just kind of speeding around and not really trying too hard. whatever i prob wouldnt take that shit too seriously either, i just wana see cory go off on somebody

I've been waiting to see that since BATB2. He destroyed everyone in it and should have beaten Prod. I feel like older guys told him he shouldn't go off since then and now whenever he plays these games he just sticks to basic tricks. Really hoping this year is different.

yea thats what i kind of thought too, like somebody (Berra) told him he cant pull out all that crazy shit in the finals and whoop out p rod in a second... He was blasting nollie cab double flips and heels and taking out everybody in ten tricks, until the finals and the next batbs. Mayby he's just really high thou and doesn't care about it

I hope he's sober and trying in this one. Watching his flatground is insane.
If the finals end up being Cory and Morgan, I'm sure Cory would kill him.

Out of everybody in batb, salabanzi probably has the most tricks that will 99% guarantee a letter, not to doubt moose because he is incredible, but to say he will slay salabanzi is ridiculous, it will come down to who wins the ro-sham-bo, and how consistent salabanzi is at double flip variations

No disrespect, but maybe because Ishod doesn't act all that black?

wes was killing it out there! would have been satisfied if either dude won though

I cant wait for the next round, also why do people hate the berrics so much its awesome you get to see all your favorite skaters when you usually wouldnt.
-
Ok when did they start calling varial heels shuvit heelflips?
Around the same time they called fakie backward, varialflips shove it kickflips, hardflips inward kickflips, inward heels hard heelflips.
-
well that felipe vs david game was about what i expected. i have a feeling felipes bag of tricks isnt that diverse.
oh yeah, does the berrics player work for anyone right now? I couldn't get it to work in Chrome/Firefox/IE with everything default - I had to watch on my phone

salabanzi has double flips, yes. but check out his games of skate with other people on youtube if you havnt. I havnt seen salabanzi have the crazy switch arsenal most pro's do nowadays, which moose proved he obviously does during the last berrics game he played

ATENTION!!! SPOILER!!!
damn, I wanted David to win...It didnt happened.
I was hoppin for David to do that no-comply 360 flip of him, he can win everyone with that trick, but waint, is that trick legal in this game?

I felt a lot of second-hand embarrassment listening to Giovanni Reda interview this. Sheesh. And that 360 yo shuvit was embarassing to watch, too!

I was hoppin for David to do that no-comply 360 flip of him, he can win everyone with that trick, but waint, is that trick legal in this game?
Illegal, no feet on the ground, but that would still be sick.

is the player super shitty for anyone else besides me?

BATB 6 - FELIPE GUSTAVO VS DAVID GONZALEZ 2013 (http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=CQHoUWy8aWw#ws)

Switch+frontside 180+kickflip.

It would be rad to see Matt miller smoke prod

felipe sucks. he got skunked by lil will......

Do they really need to read the rules evreytime? Who'da thought the SOTY cant do hardflips on flat.

I hate Daveed but why the fuck didn't his front shove on flat count?

Well, it was the expected outcome. The player is working for me and I'm on Chrome. I guess it's hit or miss for most people. Wish David won. Still don't like Felipe.

Seriously. It's the sixth one already. I remember Berra making a big deal about not reading the rules anymore and just saying "Berrics Rules" only to then read the rules for every other game since.
-
they should just post a link to the PDF or whatever it is of the rules, and tell people to refer to that if they're still not caught up.
-
That was seriously some of the ugliest skating ever. Wow, just wow...

Hearing David Gonzalez talk is painful.

-
"Full Caballero flip"?
-
I said this after the first two games, and now it's 4-0, the guy with the better style always loses. We already know Cole can do every trick and look like a Nickelback member in the process. Hasn't he already been in like every batb? Get him out of my sight and take Felipe with him, Jesus.

"Full Caballero flip"?
does anyone know who is repsonble for this SHIT ?
really liked keelans-style ... but it appers to me that the "impossible" is the kinda go trick this time ... a lot of "younger" pros miss them.

Every time i see Keelan Dadd's hat tag hangin, i feel like punching him

The only reason rule-reading is a convention is because Berra and Koston are megalomaniacs. They're not always the designated rule-readers; but when they are, it's definitely take their opportunity to make it all about them. Of course, we should draw distinctions between their beautiful orations: Berra's nonchalance (i.e. mumbling to the point of near-unintelligibility) and Koston's comedy routine (i.e. a bunch of gesticulation and profanity, because he rarely has anything original to say).
And the new pre- and post-match interview style... A poster summed it up earlier: sheeesh. Everything about it's weird, down to the lighting. It looks like an interrogation, or perhaps the starlet-interviews at the beginning of gonzo porn. You can just feel the discomfort coming from the subjects. And if Reda's gonna accost these people with silly questions, at least listen to their answers. Ha, I loved this awkward exchange (that I paraphrase):
Reda: But you lost to Paul in the Finals that time.
Cole: Actually, I beat him.
Reda: But if you're going to lose to someone, at least it was to Paul.

Both of their styles are gross... U can't seriously say that keelan would have a good style. And this whole thing is kinda stupid since in the last couple batb the finalists have been shane o'neill, mike mo, pj, ishod wair, davis torgeson and morgan smith, and they all have some of the best styles in the game... Maybe the dudes that only concentrate on their fake style like gilette, always lose but who gives a shit its not a style contest its fucking flatground.

Cromer is skating in this one... watch out, dont sleep...
-
Oh, I also loved it when Reda kept calling Cole "Cobra" and Cole, unsure how to respond, paused for a little while and then seemed to imitate how he thinks a cobra strikes its prey.
It's at the 5:04-mark. I really hope The Cobra stunned us with some venom. Long live Cobra.
-
That game would have been better if somehow Cole and Dadd were both eliminated.
-
At the end of the game look at Cole's arm compared to Louie's. Zoiks.

the catch on cole's switch front heel though...

Talk shit about Cole as you want but at least he does his 360 shuvs the right way.

-
It must be frustrating for Austyn Gillette - who is good enough to beat Mike Mo, first round, but is basically forced to throw the match because Mike Mo has a shoe coming out for one of the website's major sponsors.
Hell, you have to watch a Mike Mo x DC advertisement just in order to watch Mike Mo beat Gillette. No wonder Gillette skated like an asshole.

I think some of the interviews are good. It all depends on who the interviewee is. For instance, watching PJ's interviews is fucking awful but, say, Keelan's interview was pretty cool IMO. It's just like a mini-interview that normally you wouldn't get to hear unless it was printed in a mag, or in a free lunch. So, yeah, it's all relative to the interviewee, and it promotes the skater, so fuck it, I like it.

That was the worst game ever. Cory was so rad when he was fresh off his Bang Yo'self part and just getting on Girl. Now he just seems too cool for school. Girl was the worst thing that ever happened to his skateboarding... Girl sucks. And if you don''t want to be in the game, don't participate. I know it's just for fun, but I like the close games where dudes are giving their all. When I play SKATE with my homies, I'm always giving it my all because why wouldn't I? That's the point.

i know where youre coming from cuz the dude dont produce as much as someone as good as him usually would. but in most of the tour videos he skates really good at contests and streets. but i agree nothing good came out really besides the girl trip edits since his beware sasquatch and bang yo self etc... but i was so stoked he actually came through with one of the best parts ever in pretty sweet, and it showcases a lot of what the dude can do, at his best or not.

Muska looks like a slightly younger version of my friends creepy uncle now, which makes it all the more hilarious. Dudes permanently high on life.
Also, pretty funny how after every time Davis lands a sketchy trick, the camera cuts to Muska smiling, nodding and giving a thumbs up.

It must be frustrating for Austyn Gillette - who is good enough to beat Mike Mo, first round, but is basically forced to throw the match because Mike Mo has a shoe coming out for one of the website's major sponsors.
Hell, you have to watch a Mike Mo x DC advertisement just in order to watch Mike Mo beat Gillette. No wonder Gillette skated like an asshole.
...NOPE!!!

The Layton vs Asta game is up and of course it's another short game

How are these games sucking so bad?? People are bailing on some basic fuckin tricks. They need to make that flow vs. pro happen or at least get some new people cuz obviously these dudes are over this shit.

The only way these games will get more interesting is by getting rid of those stupid ass rules!
Would be cool to see some wacky no-comply variations instead of those generic flips all the time....

Forgive me if this is known, but I am pretty sure the skaters are being paid to participate in BATB. I think many of them are just showing up, getting their appearance checks, blowing off the game, and getting the fuck out. Just an observation.

Are they really paid? Makes sense I can't see someone like Austyn Gilette voluntarily participating in this.

I have no evidence other than the fact that DC is sponsoring it and that many of the participating skaters seem hesitant to win. But it seems plausible. Same thing happened with Street League.

Yeah this kinda sucks now. Nobody really cares... at all. I think they should have the three runner ups get a trip or a cruise or something. And throw in a couple bonuses for the first and second place. I dunno just something to get people excited. I guess the prestige has worn off by now and they have to make a gimmick, which is not working at all. A simple paycheck is not really motivating either. They should get some strippers and take the winner for night out drinking or doing whatever. This one was really doomed from the start though. They need to inject some fucking emotion and fucking balls into the atmosphere. They should have gotten some good sponsors done a little promotion, but not overhype it and throw in some sick prizes. Get some of little wayne's strippers in there and make this thing fun again.

fuckin waste of time only good game was wes vs ishod

it is like: one minute: reading the rules; one minute: game; two minutes: "what happened out there?"
-
how do you make a 5 min video of a game of skate that lasted 1min? And why would you invite some dude who sucked in the last one, and clearly can't skate flat that great, when theres so many other people out there? It's just hurting their image.
That cory kennedy post game interview is still the best thing in this batb

WHY THE HELL DID THEY BRING MATT MILLER BACK? jesus the only two games that went well are ishod/wes and cole/keelan, and thats outa six games i think. imagine if it was luan vs prod. prod's head would explode. they shulda put luan, colden, and guy mariano in this shit
they need to sit back and think about the people they are grouping together and make sure based off their skill, that theyre somewhat evenly matched on flatground.
j rogers vs oneill is going to be hilarious. morgan vs koston/busenitz is gonna be a solid game for sure. and im excited to see trent mcclung cuz that dudes got some crazy technique. nick tucker and torey is going to be rad too. i will feel terrible if sewa beats wes. id love for wes to win it

all games till now have been a bit boring, this last 2 with J-Lay being the most boring and P-Rod ( just because he is too damn good , lol ).
I am really curious to see the J. Casanova one.

god damn, these games are pathetic, how the hell are guys missing switch flips and frontside flips? seems like they would only invite people who are known for being good at games of skate, not faggy little mommas boys who buckle under the pressure. speaking of which, what pressure is there? are they worried that they wont get that target hook up? is monster going to cut their supply of shit hats and scum juice? damn, fuck this shit.

Yea never really understood that pressure thing, I mean most of the people there are their friends, and what is there to really lose? You'd think that a pro would be pretty used to have people just sitting around watching when they are skating

I can think of a brand new group of 20 or so skaters who have never been in this thing and are seemingly really good at flat that could make for some really great games. Instead, we get the same goddamn people again and again.

If Suciu played, and actually played seriously, I think he might be able to win it. He killed it at the Es game of skate several years back, and this:

I'm always struck by Prod"s good nature and professionalism in the spotlight. It's not hard to see why he is Nike's golden boy. He's not my fave to watch by any stretch, but I find him thoroughly respectable. He, cole, mo, pj, shane, and morgan, are the robot guard of flatground supremacy. If you can't beat at least two of them (and most know they can't thus show up over it) you ain't winning shite. I like to see new faces as much as the next dude, but these guys should always be in it, because if you don't beat them, you didn't really win [flatground] skateboarding. ;D
It's interesting to think that it's only a matter of time before someone shows up who's going to be able to abuse them all consistently. But likely not until age really starts to play a role.

i was genuinely surprised the berrics still existed when i went to it about a month ago. I watched the first two, and the finals of the 5th BATB...
heres a few things that would make it better:
-only allow 4 riders from the US, two from East, two from West
-2 riders from Canada
-2 riders from England
-2 from Asia
-2 from Australia
-2 from rest of Europe
-2 from South America
then we could really see who is the best in the world
-Make it all happen in two days. Have people play simeltaneously during the live event and upload the VOD's for later. So play up to semi's on Saturday and then do grand finals on Sunday.
-Double Elimination. Makes for a better tournament if someone plays a bad game... i think most would agree that the better contender comes out on top in a longer set.
-
taking top 4 from the previous BATB's would be pretty cool too...

could it not be all am? get rid of people who don't really want it.

How about a mellow run. little kicker. Then a small euro. a water gap...

Yup. The worst thing is that in a year from now, "varial heel", like the snows of yesteryear, will be gone from this earth. Instead, young skaters are gonna refer to it as that "heelflip shuv" bullshit.
Speaking of it, is the Berrics still as relevant to young skaters as it used to be like 2 or 3 years ago? I couldn't help but notice that kids seem to be talking about Thrasher/Ride Channel/actual videos more than footage put out by the Berrics. For the record, with Thrasher I don't mean the newest "Fatback" but stuff such as David's or Austyn's parts...

Thank you, I was looking for an ad that showed that that terminology was relatively common.
-
Correct me if I'm wrong, but I was always under the assumption that the terminology of the "Varial Heel's & Varial Kickflip's" came from vert skaters, as they would essentially be doing a varial by grabbing the board. The whole "Kickflup Shuv & Heelflip Shuv" term came about in the early years when vert started to die out and everything went to street, since there was no grab involved with doing the trick on flatground, the concept of calling it a varial seemed irrelevant and unnecessary.
-
Off subject but on subject. Fuck Chaz Ortiz and him not even knowing the name of the dude hes playing. I hope Cromer ends up beating that twat
-
Well he beat him in the style department..
Brad's tricks looked 10X better...
I hate flatground "experts" with shitty style.. (cole comes to mind, can do any trick but cant make any trick look good)
-
Goddammit.
-
Cromer was definitely the most fun to watch so far.
-
Cromer wins for pulling the stickshift on that post game fist bump attempt
-
i got so stoked when i saw the tagged people under the video and saw gerwer listed - but then bummed when i realized he was just reading the rules :-\
this really is going down as the least exciting BATB so far
-
Cromer seems like the most humble dude ever. He's been killing it too! As everyone already said, every single one trick of his looked fucking legit. At least, Chaz noticed that too. Probably the first thing he did when he arrived in Chicago was to watch one of Brad's parts.
On a random note, is Chaz Ortiz on Supra?
-
CROMER WINS! At least in the style/ pop/ not just walking off the set of Jersey Shore categories.
And once again, a really legitimate last trick. If you got to a do a kook trick in order to seal the deal, you need to take a step back and figure out why you're even playing.
-
On a random note, is Chaz Ortiz on Supra?
no. some pros just rep. a shoe company in order to get hooked up. pj for example always skated in addias.

such a bummer, but at least an interesting game. the trick naming is some real bullshit though "caballero kickflip" get fucked. i don't know what dumbass intern they have editing it.

fuck you berra, if you think it's necessary to write the fuckin names on there, then at least have them correct
Please tell me you're a troll...

surprised they didn't call a hardflip "inward varial kickflip"
-
cheesiness aside chaz could win. �he can do all the tricks, and some atypical/wacky shit, and he's a seasoned competition skateboarder.
always enjoy watching Cromer skate, one of the best dudes.

Finally a exciting game.

I do not understand how people can post things without having any idea of what they are talking about. Oh the Internet, how you've made idiots of us all.
-

Inside flip.
-
Ollie pressure flip? that doesnt even make sense... its called a pressure flip because you use pressure to make it flip instead of popping\flicking it, you cant apply pressure if its in the air. maybe a late variel flip? back foot variel flip? eitherway, that trick is wack.
Cromer is too legit for that shit
-
ollie late pressure flip??? never heard or thought about it
Mikemo has been doing that trick for years. He actually does them all of the time yet people here are acting like they've never seen it before.
-
Did Reda call him "Chad" Cromer. If so: Damn it, Reda, you suck even more. Although I do love all the flava he puts into his voice. It makes him look so down--his swag x 300,000, at least.
yeah i thought i heard 'chaz', which sucks cause brad is the best thing about batb (apart from the obvious exception of j. casanova). he's really humble and respectful at the interview and reda just talks shit to him.
-
you can call yourself "steez" ortiz but you'll never look as good on a board like cromer
that hardflip sucked balls soo bad
nollie frontside flip of chaz wasn't OK at all....
whatever
-

In all fairness, Brad had an obvious toedrag on the bigspin flip, too. Nonetheless, it looked proper as(s) fuck.
-
The crowd cheering for brad, and brad in general, made this the best game yet.
Also I would like to say Chaz is a fuck knuckle
-
Lemme preface this by saying that Cromer has the best style, and I would have been stoked if he won. HOWEVER, how the fuck are you guys gonna bitch about dudes "not caring" about these games but get mad when someone clearly cares about winning the game? Shit, if it meant a chance at winning a cash prize I'd be trying to learn tricks like a back foot varial too.
-
Cromer was trying to win, trust me. he almost had that stupid mike mo trick
-
I'M MIKE MO AND THIS IS THE MIKE MO ::)
-
Makes me feel good to know how much more stoked everyone at the berrics, in person, and on the planet, is on Cromer than fucking Steez Ortiz. Cromer makes skating look dope. Ortiz = doo doo.
-

I dont understad why so much people hate Chris Ortiz, he isnat that bad, he has a few good moves and solid style, as long as a skateboarder isnt a rude arrogant prick I have no problem with them.

I don't get the hate as well. Dude skates fine to me and I rather enjoyed that late pressure flip. If Koston did that, no one would be bitching about it. I just think since it is Ortiz, I totally didn't expect that and thought it was cool.
-

HUH, HUH, HA!
Seriously becoming annoying.
I was thinking if it was Chad it wouldn't work so well...
"I'm THE Muska and this is A Muska."

brad and chaz actually have kinda similar styles...
-
God I seriously fucking hate Chaz Ortiz. Like he's the worst skateboarder out right now. He reminds me of those fresh to death kids with their fades, snapbacks, matching shoes, etc. He just sucks.
-
I'm sooo excited for JR Blastoff tomorrow. I really hope he wins the dude deserves a comeback.
I actually met the guy at a party a couple months back and he really was a super chill dude. Talked to me about skating for a while and introduced me to a super hot girl that ended up being Mike Mo's ex. I got her number but I think they got back together like right after.

I was looking forward to another J appearance in the next round...
my dreams are shattered. He's such a kook

Shane had some big pop on some of tricks.

SPOILER ALERT
Man, I was really hoping for Jereme to win, just to spice things up a bit. Shane's already made it to a couple of the BATB finals already, it ain't nothing new.
Can you imagine if Jereme and Chaz were the final two? Ahah oh man would there have been a shit storm.

damm it!
but i loved how the crowd was cheering for mr. rogers. after felix annouced shane as a winner it was almost silent.

yea he got robbed by politics that year.
Im not too crazy about him either but the kid popped all of his tricks and stomped pretty much everything. as infuriating as it sounds i wouldn't mind seeing a skatebot v steeze game.

Whether you love him or hate him, Jerome is the most entertaining person in skateboarding right now.
It was cool to see him genuinely excited and nervous about the game. You could tell he was put off by the pressure, but was still having fun with it. Good sport.

damn he messed up alot of shit that he throws down on 12 stair sets.. Definately was nervous, but it was fun to see him so excited, when others have been playing it way too cool. Hoping he will be getting more coverage on other than interviews, where he teaches us how the universe works.

Some people just choose to live with their parents, Wes Kremer said recently he never wants to move out of his parents house, Shit didn't fred gall live w his grandmother his whole life? And doesnt Mike Mo still live w his parents too? I can see what your saying but I wouldnt worry to much, Someone like Chaz is obviously going to make more money from skating because of contests and things like that, They really aren't in the same category as far as pro skateboarding is concerened, and I dont mean talent wise, Brads much more low key, and I believe he chooses to be.

He was burned really badly in a fire and had all his skin grafted from corpse scrotums. Since corpse scrotums are the most delicate of skins, he must keep them covered a lot. Wikipedia that shit.
Does that mean he smells like full body nasty ball sweat when he skates?

rodney might abolish everyone (daewon too) but i'd rather watch that than shane or p-rod landing every single trick 100% of the time.
take them outta their comfort zones ffs. gou et al. probably have lots of fucked up flatground tricks in their arsenals too. hell put chopper (osaka daggers) in there and fools would cry :'(

I haven't cared about the Battle at the Berrics since BATB 3... Well, this year I decided to tune in, and I'm disappointed as fuck. Now I remember why I stopped watching. The Battle at the Berrics actually was exciting when it first began. Match ups would take up the majority of the video time. Now, interviews and pre-match material take up the majority of the video.
It really doesn't seem like most of the guys involved really care anymore. So why should people tune in just to see one skateboarder actually try and the other one to just half ass it? I completely understand having off days, but not caring is beyond that.
BATB 6 is the most boring attempt yet. Hate aside, I'm just bored with it. I wish that I could still get into it and feel engaged and excited about who is going to win/lose each week. But I don't even feel like they're trying anymore.
-Opinions of Berra aside, of course.
-
i feel as if anyone thirstily wishing for BaTB tournaments with tricks like no-comply's & bonelesses are either washed-up geezers or 23 year olds nicknamed "Pump n Grind" at their local skateparks. Not trying to flame anybody here, just throwing out a theory that could be proven with modern-day statistics.
-
or bored to death of the same god damn flatground tricks from the same people for so long.
-
if niggas so damn bored of BaTB, why on earth do yall keep watching it & pushing every one of its threads to 10+ pages? I havent watched that shit since the 2nd one, and only on rare occasion will i find out theres a match worth watching & check it out. last time i actually did that, i dont even remember. i planned on watching the jereme rogers one but nah im cool. truth be told i only checked this thread to clown niggas, so yeah...
also back when eS was doing the annual game of skate joints i dont recall anybody asking for those tricks back then. why the change of heart? besides that shit is a straight up novelty. maybe 2-3 games worth watching anymore past that is overkill. yall already know niggas would be salty as fuck to see PJ Ladd lose in the final round to a switch 360 boneless or a 180 no-comply pressure flip.

There was a boycott by Vallely and some other dudes against the es game of skate because it was a "flips only" game of skate. People want to see this shit in a game of skate because they're sick of seeing "kickflip, backside flip...etc.". Is it a problem that somebody is suggesting something different?

Y'all be hypin the shit up to be something new & fun or whatever but that shit wouldn't be anywhere near as good as y'all think Itd be. Too many random tricks each opponent hasn't done that would lead to boring & uninteresting games that could be won in the first couple turns. Yeah it'd be dope with guys like daewon or haslam, but there's not even that many guys who're on that level let alone be willing to participate. I ain't even THAT against the idea but the way niggas be crying about it every single time BaTB is discussed is ridiculous. Like I said, a couple specialty games would be cool but I assure you a full fledged tournament would flop hard as hell. Y'all might as well stop tryna argue with me cuz until such an event actually happens & does numbers, I'm pretty much right. If I weren't then the shit woulda been done by now. Niggas would be better off tryna get ABC to air regular season WNBA games like they were the NBA Finals

You're right. I definitely be hypin.

I see nothing wrong with the preservation with the "flatground-only, no-feet-on-the-ground" standard of the games. Seems like there's plenty of griping about the format's staleness mid-week, but when the games get posted Pals deconstruct them with a depth of cinematic criticism usually reserved for Italian Neo-Realism. If you're tired of "basic" tricks like backside flips and can't even see the entertaining novelty in such rare tricks as impossible late flips or ollie late pressure flips, I doubt adding handplants and footplants will truly be much of a game-changer for you.

That Cole Vallely game was stupid. If I remember correctly the judge was letting Cole fuck up on all the old man tricks. Otherwise Vallely would've done handstands and shit all the way to the finals. What about a mini ramp game with Falcon?

damn so wanted bastien to win... makin reda uncomfortable buahaha bastien <3
-
Best one yet. At least they mixed it up a little with those double flips and Bastien's cab flip down the stairs.
Moose will give Chaz Ortiz a run for his money. It looks like he has pretty much all of those standard tricks on lock and is capable of throwing out some surprise tricks once in a while.
-
Until the switch front 3 I got kind of a confidence boost because Bastien and I do the same shit tricks in skate. That fullcab flip down the stairs was dope.
also.... "Frontside Halfcab"....
-
Bastien was born to entertain. Only match worth watching so far.
-
I need more bastien footage!!! Maybe not the best game yet, but for sure the most enjoyable to watch! Actually the best game yet

johan of usps?!

good match. good to see bastien around again.
I'd like to see moose win it.
-
cab flip was fucked...this was a good game right here.
-
Cab double flip. Was not expecting that...
-
Bastien must have been having an off day. Not because I expected him to whoop Moose, but because he's perfectly capable of a lot of the tricks he missed.
-
"Don't say shit"
-
I just wished that game had gone on for longer as it looked like Bastien was going increasingly mental with each new trick.
-
Finally a good game... Moose's nollie backside heel looked fucking sick. Don't know why, just like accentuated his heel flick so much. Best part of the match for me.
-
that nollie 360 flip :o
-
So Bastien is moving to the US, we can probably expect a lot of footy. Probably a new sponsor as well?
Quite a character he is. "Dont say shit, say tricks"
-
I died when Bastien Full cab flipped the set that was so funny
-
I see they realized "Caballero flip" was completely wrong.
-
it's weird seeing bastien not having really good pop. I figured his pop on all his tricks was pretty high.
-
Quite a character he is. "Dont say shit, say tricks"
This. I love Bastien. Characters like him are what make skateboarding fun. Everything he says and does is both awesome and hillarious. Don't disrespect tricks.

There isn't really a good reason to pop your shit high on a game of skate. btw does anyone know whats up with bastiens sponsors, is he getting a shoe or a board sponsor, or anything? Dude has high marketing value, since he is succesfully doing one of the most anticipated comebacks in skateboarding right now, but i don't really see him fitting on any of the teams that would have the room to get more people on...

some ppl just pop higher naturally.........................

This was a good game. Bastien is always entertaining and both he and Moose were obviously trying. The back-to-back cab double kickflips were ridiculous.
-
bastien got me stoked to skate just playing a game of skate. also that moose ain't so bad
-
I've noticed that star-huckers like Bastien or Nyjah don't really have a lot of pop, just good control when riding with full speed (to ollie out on a higher handrail). If I remember correctly neither of them ever filmed any trick over a picnic table on flat.

arent there supposed to be 2 games this weekend?

I've noticed that star-huckers like Bastien or Nyjah don't really have a lot of pop, just good control when riding with full speed (to ollie out on a higher handrail). If I remember correctly neither of them ever filmed any trick over a picnic table on flat.
nyjahs got pretty good flatground pop

How does Reda manage to fuck up the interviews everytime? It's like he still doesn't understand the concept of regular vs. regular, goofy vs. goofy, so in the end etc....He asks the first guy his stance and then asks PJ if he's goofy?

bastien got me stoked to skate just playing a game of skate. also that moose ain't so bad
His bag of tricks really amazed me. Good style as well.

Finally a good game. Moose FTW

He switch heel flipped a skatepark six or seven stair in kotr, and did like a waist high back tail in his jart part. His pop is more aggressive, with his knees hitting his teeth, rather than a smooth natural thing, where he would pop every trick high without any effort.

Moose is garbage

This is true. Picnic tables are our only gauge of a skateboarder's pop, well that and a game of skate at The Berrics...

Dudes, Carlos Ribiera is a fucking beast. I love PJ's skating, but god damn Carlos makes that shit look better. He does this switch tre with so much fucking pop and his nollie flip is the best nollie flip I think I have seen in my life. Fucking amazing. Watch this.

Hahaha Carlos looks so just dumb, or college-movie stoner :D And his style is out of this world! Kinda thought he would do a lot better, but i guess it's not that easy when playing against pj. I love skating and watching other people skate in loose trucks, but he definately would have prevented some wheelbites if he had had them a bit tighter, and probably would have done a lot better. Does anybody think that some pros actually would tighten their trucks before these games?

every skaters has a few tricks they can pop impressively higher (even I) than most, but then there are those who exhibit a consistently high amount of pop on every trick - just look at ribeiro, it's fucking obvious

Switch 360s are so sick when they don't pivot at all. Carlos' was perfect. It makes it seem like more of a controlled trick instead of just swinging and hoping.

Dudes, Carlos Ribiera is a fucking beast. I love PJ's skating, but god damn Carlos makes that shit look better. He does this switch tre with so much fucking pop and his nollie flip is the best nollie flip I think I have seen in my life. Fucking amazing. Watch this.
duded THIS. its so weird too because i always thought luan had the best nollie flips. and when luan entered the berrics for his first match everyone found out how much more of a technical monster he already showed he was thru footage, along with popping his tricks so high and catching them quick as fuck. I was really curious to see how ribeiro would match up. and jesus christ he got skunked but every one of his tricks looked 3-4 times better than pj's.
and why in the hell do people overhype bastian?? he used to be the best yes i know, but seriously dude has a weak switch arsenel and is no competition to all of the ledge technicians and crazy handrail pros of now. he did a lot better than i thought he would against moose, but then again he landed some tricks that he got realll lucky on. i really enjoy him as a person and character, it just seems like skating has kinda been on the back burner for awhile for him and the only tricks hes improved on are the ones he's always been good at. wheras we see other skaters like reynolds, koston, mariano keeping up and learning all the new crazy shit.
say what u want on the berrics and hate on the format and the trick naming, all u kooks dont need to be watching anyway. i might get upset when my dude loses or theres a bad call, but...
OVERALL i am always stoked to see pros and ams ive been watching for years kill the streets, and having the priviledge of seeing them display their flatground skills. it really is interesting if youre a skate nerd like me. that is what is important. i truly believe skateboarding talent, style and technique is important to be shown thru flat games of skate. it gives u more perspective on the skater's overall style and attitude, besides a video part with 30 3 second clips. yes the berrics has stupid shit but to really bash on the battles and interviews and completely disregard it is just plain ignorant, especially if youre passionately interested in the sport. the overall reason we watch is to appreciate the art, and this is the artists we love at their most basic form. id love to see most any of my fav skaters skate flatground and if ur not a cali local, you often dont get that chance.

Dude can do switch fs 360 heel so thats enough switch arsenal for me and yes he has a bad switch/nollie flip and frontside shit, but he fucking cab flips 10 stairs 1st try! His bag of tricks is a little on sided, but id rather see him do some crazy cab flip variations than every trick possible down some little stair set. Reynolds has been doing the same tricks for ever... and everybody loves him because of that.

say what you want but they put him street league, he did the same tricks which got him decent scores, then he kept doing the same shit and fell off towards the end. he came to the berrics and did the same shit with a little luck (besides the sw heel, he shulda had that) and got stomped out by an insane up and comer like moose. had ribeiro, trent mcclung, ishod wair, morgan smith, torey etc played him the outcome would be the same. he doesnt hold a candle to these new dudes in terms of trick progression and the amount of tricks they have on lock. yes i appreciate bastians skating and it's beautiful to watch because he has perfected those few tricks to the point where they all pop high and are super clean, but there is a reason he isnt getting sponsored and endorsed fully by companies despite him being in st league and the berrics
-
damn, PJ almost started trying... not. guys such a beast! carlos' pop was cool, but these whole tournament things are seriously a joke for PJ. Wouldnt be surprised at all if he won this again. Only thing that bums me out about these games are the specific match ups, its always someone who i'd like to see more games from vs a robot.. thats jus how the cookie crumbles though.. don't even kno who else is in this one but im rooting for PJ... ps nice new balence shoes bra

Let's go over how stupid a statement that is. Yes Reynolds is best known for his fs flip, but he has literally every other trick under the sun and has documented proof of him doing them. When I think of Reynolds, I think of a litany of tricks he seems to have on lock. The Boss is nowhere near limited in bag of tricks. I want you to think of all the other tricks he's known for besides the fs flip, and if you're not amazed by the variety of his selection, then you need a Reynolds refresher course.

I think it's weird when people hold not skating switch against someone. I've never watched a video part and had my experience jaded because the person didn't skate switch. I hardly notice it.

His has a funny person look on his face during the interviews. true. He has the most amazing style. true. I thought he was more consistant on flat. true. Having tight enough trucks to prevent wheelbites helps your consistancy especially on flatground. true. all of it was true everybody else is just stupid :D

Definately not unimpressed. He is one of my favorite skaters of all time and continues to amaze me. I was just saying that like bastian, he has concentrated on some of his signature moves, making them perfect and I enjoy watching those tricks no matter how many times they will be put out. I will always be stoked on a reynolds frontside flip or varial heel, and Bastiens fullcab doubleflip. That is why the first comment in this stupid argument thing was wrong. Bastien doesn't need to learn every fuckin trick the kids do, as long as he keeps amazing everybody with his old ones.

Wow...Bastian is officially a looney. Other than Mo, Brazilians Busenitz has the best flat ground in the game (Luan, Ribeiro, TX).

Bastien rips. Skates fast. Doing every trick is not necessary, he knows his strengths. Switch is boring. Last trick is fucking beautiful!

Carlos is the best thing to happen in this berries yet. That dude is the best. Amazing.
PJ is boring as FUCK. Slow. No pop. That brick harbour thing was awesome but watching him at the berries is paint drying shit.

wow, you are dumb. I mentioned Nyjah and Bastien and you give me PROs known for their pop... and Alex never once filmed anything over a picnic table?
You are slowly negating your own argument. I am out of this conversation.
dude, you sarcasm detector is broken. alex filmed plenty over/on picnic tables, therefore invalidating your stupid response.

Carlos is the best thing to happen in this berries yet. That dude is the best. Amazing.
PJ is boring as FUCK. Slow. No pop. That brick harbour thing was awesome but watching him at the berries is paint drying shit.
Bastien is crazy ( French)
Moose fucking rips!!!
You just went full person.

I've noticed that star-huckers like Bastien or Nyjah don't really have a lot of pop, just good control when riding with full speed (to ollie out on a higher handrail). If I remember correctly neither of them ever filmed any trick over a picnic table on flat.
This is true. Picnic tables are our only gauge of a skateboarder's pop, well that and a game of skate at The Berrics...
post a trick that proves me wrong or go suck a dick

switch is great when you have a really awkward switch style, where you basicly are going blindly backwards while doing tricks. If you have the p rod style, the learning a trick in switch and learning a trick in general, take about the same time. which is cool too. Anyway, if you don't give respect for switch, then you are looking at skating from the same direction as your mom or an uncle, who only care about how cool a trick looks like.

Alot of skating is about how the trick looks, of course it is, why do you think people hate on varials but like 360 flips, because of how they look.
But i agree with you on the "switch style" bit, where the point of switch is to do a mililar trick but completley different at the same time. A good example bieng gilbert crocketts switch flips looking so different from his regular flips.

The reason, why people hate varial kickflips, is that it's usually the trick, that little kids do and that's why it looks bad. But any trick can be done stylishly when done by the right person. It usually looks bad, because not a whole lot of people have taken the time to perfect it and make it look good. but yeah, a lot of skating is about how it looks to a skaters eye, not to the regular persons eye, who would most likely want to see a backflip or some shit.

This. Every trick can look good, even some wack pressure flips. For example, BA has great varial flips, and I can imagine someone like Mike Mo stomping a good one too. It just depends who and how he does it. I love watching one of my homies do varial flips, because he just does them like its nothing, and the look great.

Oh man, all those shove-it variations by Sewa looked so awkward. He didn't do the stanky leg only on varial flip. I couldn't stop laughing while watching this game, grade A entertainment. I hope Sewa goes through to the finals.
-
I sat through the post game interview shit, Sawa and Reda talk about the first shove it and then some Frontside Flip that was a fuck up before Sawa went all 540 and late 180. I don't recall this mysterious frontside flip at all... :-\

As robotic as people say he is those Sewa tricks were wild.

When I saw him miss that pop shuv, I thought Sewa was gonna get murked. I've never seen someone do a 540 flip on flat so easily
-
ender trick was wtf, so essentially a fs big kickflip? or like a ghettobird the other way
also never seen a yo 540 shuv haha
good to see manny having fun, also didnt expect the outcome judging from sewas last game a year or two ago
also LMAO at the awkward moment when sewa didnt get the 8 mile reference hahahah
-
Sewa's fuckin rad. Damn.
Can you do shit like ollie to manuel to kickflip on flat in this? Sewa could probably do shit like that with nollie flips.

Yeah that's pretty fishy, but say if it's Manny's turn to set the trick and he bails, then it's Sewa's turn to set the trick and he bails too, I could see why they would edit it out because it wouldn't serve a purpose. I don't know if that's what happened but it would make sense. Just edit that shit out of the post game too.

Well it's 2013 so we really should be seeing a lot more 540 stuff, I mean jeez.
Kudos to the big russian. I know Paul was like, "great i'm gonna have to play this fool to get into the semis."

Double tre flip, 540 shuv, 540 kick, hardflip front 180, easy... Pop-shuvit, varial kickflip... Not so much...

good shit sewa. and yea they're edited...hope you would know by now. it's not that hard to track when they do a trick if they are on the same side they landed on or not....

Wow this is what this round needs to be like. So many thoughts came from this game:
It's finally clearly obvious that they just don't show tricks that were tried and not landed and never came into play. I'm okay with that. Yeah it's sloppy that they leave it in the post game but whatever.
Sewa yo-ing out his stuff I'm okay with too because he's actually using his front foot to keep the board level. Spinning a 540 shuv w/o it flipping over is insane and would be so much harder w/o the front foot keeping it in place.
So nice to see progression in these tricks. Yeah maybe a 540 flip is kinda kooky 1080 mega ramp shit but the name of the game here is doing hard stuff so I back it 100%
I was also previously not checking for that kid. Great stuff. Solid A.
-
Remember when Chaz Ortiz did a trick that no one has ever done in a BATB game and everyone him a kook? What changed?

I actually like Sewa's sportsmanship too after watching the post-game. He tried to go basic and for whatever reason it wasn't working. He was down, looked like he was losing it and so he went for it.

One of those McClungs vs. Nyjah was a pretty good game. I like seeing them volley like that. I know it's dumb to use the word volley but I've been playing a lot of wii ping pong.
-
Yea that was one of the best games in the way of doing a lot of basic tricks and having a long game. I was actually happy that nyjah won for some reason, but i wish they would have tried something crazier
-
i was in a sensitive mood i guess when i watched the sewa manny game. because as soon as that russian startd poppin off i felt scared. you could tell everyone in the building was freaking out.
trent was a little friendly on offense and seemed like he was a bit off to lose to nyjah. but nyjah does have most every basic trick on lock it seems. sewa vs wes is gonna be a hilarious game. at first i was dissapointed w this berrics but now im pretty psyched about it

I think the dude must just get nervous at the berrics or something. alternatively, we could all perpetuate the rumor that berrics games are rigged, so nick wasn't gonna win anyway. if you go on youtube though there are some other games of nick playing skate at prod's park and he's got some ridiculous shit

Koston taking charge and actually doing a switch hardflip (his kryptonite). Dennis' switch hardflip for defense was pretty big.

Compare Nick Tucker's rolling speed with Busenitz. Dude is such a beast on board.

Regular hardflips are his kryptonite he could always do switch ones. Very surprised at the skunk though.

good game just not the epic battle everyone was hoping for.

wow I was really surprised on this game. thought it would go pretty much the opposite way, but i would be happy to see more of either of them so it's all good. Sucked that it was such a short game thou

switch back 3 on flatground was nuts. I'm glad Koston won, I enjoy seeing him in these things.

finally we get a glimpse of the real eric koston, I would be stoked if he made it to the end.

Spoiler Alert!!!
Koston beats Morgan as well.
-
Well this was a pleasant surprise. Always want Koston to win, but never expect him to (the young kids are just too ridiculous.)
Saw a little bit of the legend in that switch front 360. :)
-
Its cool Busenitz doesnt compromise his style for these games, but that's probably why he got skunked. Going that fast definitely puts you at a disadvantage.

Sorry to rain on the Busenitz parade but the best game was PJ/Morgan at the finals. Sorry you got skunked PJ, really big fan of yours but that game was crazy. Still can't believe you went for the impossible 3 times though..

I love nick tucker, but that was the worst batb game I've ever seen, all week waiting for that haha bummed, hopefully tomorrows is good
Tucker's got some crazy shit in games of skate like one of the posters above was saying, no idea how he messed up on some basics, skip to :28 secs for game start
S.K.A.T.E. - NICK TUCKER V.S. NKA - BONUS ROUND !!!!!! (http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_detailpage&v=4CEciL0xONA#ws)

The way Dennis landed the fakie 360 flip: GOT DAM beautiful
-
I always root for the older dog, so I'm stoked Koston won that. Nick Tucker is also way better than that game made it seem.

Good to see Koston laying it down.
I'd like to see Koston pull some old freaky shit and take out Borgan.

Bummed that Chaz is out. I'm sure he could wipe floor with anyone who is doing BATB for 6th year.
And at the same time, stoked for Moose.
-
MOOOOSEEEEE,
Chaz was super humble in the interviews and nervous before the game... I like that.
MOOOOOSEEEE FOR THE WIN!
-
that's how a game of skate is supposed to be. It's all fine and good if people want to come out hard as fuck with late pressure flips and impossible flips for the second trick but that was way more fun/entertaining. Regardless, I'm hyped on Chaz being out of this one.
-
This was actually a very good game. I am stoked that this was actually watchable
-
That was a really good game, Moose can do anything. As much as Chaz's style is kinda boring, his fakie 3 shuv was beautiful.
-
Hyped on round 2 so far. I like when the games go for awhile. Feel like people are more serious in round 2.
-
I was super hyped on that one for sure! Seemed like the first really good game of skate in this years batb. I feel like chazs style comes out way more, when he is forced to do tricks that he can't do perfect, f.ex. that nollie cab flip he did after the game was sexy as fuck! Also how he managed to stay on his board on that fakie hardflip is beyond me. Moose is obviously super good and i hope that he will be doing good and getting to the finals instead the same old dudes

that nollie cab flip he did after the game was sexy as fuck!

That was like watching two turds on the run.

That was a good game, but I still felt uninterested in the whole thing once it was over. Plus the redo on Moose's 540 was complete bullshit. I keep wanting to stop watching this shit, but it's almost like an obligation at this point. Same reason I kept watching Dexter the past 2 seasons.

how people hate on shit like this is beyond me. some of these games have had me on the edge of my fucking seat like when im watching sports teams i actually give a shit about.
morgan smith vs koston is gonna be fucking incredible guaranteed at least 30 tricks . sewa vs wes will be ridiculous, hopefully wes pulls thru. but then again watching sewa beat prod would be sad but hilarious. billy vs mikemo will last forever as with cole and puds. and i think asta has what it takes to beat pj if pj is going to lose that is.

I also enjoy the fuck out of these games, because this is the only form of skate competition that you can actually feel similar rush compared to sports like football, basketball and hockey. In real skate contests the excitement comes from people landing crazy tricks, not the battle of who's gonna actually win. But this batb has just sucked so much compared to the previous ones, because the people in it don't seem excited on the format anymore and don't try their hardest.
And there has actually been games with 70 tricks, so 30 isn't shit compared to that.

Damn, Berra gained some chub. He tends to mumble like an insecure middle-schooler when he talks; at least now it's easier to rationalize why--he gains weight disproportionally in his tongue, and now the extra chub leaves his struggling to pronounce his stupid thoughts.
-
Also, damn, Felipe's trucks are tight. Like, depressingly creaky.
Tight trucks just don't make sense to me. I understand that it results in a level of control that works for Felipe as he switch-flip tailslides anything, Nyjah nosegrinding 23-stair rails, etc.; it but it confounds me that the skating on trucks with what seems like concrete for bushings could ever actually be fun for the skater.

Skating tight trucks is the absolute worst. No balance or style factor into tight trucks. One should only have tight trucks if they are in the learning stages or if they are a kook. Loosen those shits up.

Doing 360 shuvs like that feels super fun and it helps you to keep the board leveled out, so I don't see why it's not proper, except that it looks pretty goofy, which shouldn't matter, because it's a fuckin game of skate

The next batb should be co-op mode! Like they would be randomly pared up and then they would take turns in doing tricks, and the opposite team would have 2 tries, so that both of them can try to do the trick. Then everyone would have to try a bit harder and it wouldn't be the same old boring thing.

One of the reasons is that it's about the only way that Berra will get footage.
Butt, he's pro on DC???

And he gets incentives from DC every time he wears them when he reads the rules. Same reason why he had the headphones on. Gotta get the incentives.
Precisely, it's a bit ridiculous (IMHO) that he was so nonchalant about his headphones being around his neck. I wonder what he was listening to beforehand... Probably Huey Lewis and the News.
But, I guess when faced with that decision, most of us are going to try to get paid as often as possible.

That dude pretends like reading "the rules" was a kind of stupid thing to do (Gustavo vs Rodriguez game f.e.), but he surely is the dude insisisting on them being read. The whole rules reading thing always seemed to be some scientology inspired thing to me, actually the whole berrics deal. I don't follow the berrics anymore, but the whole old military theme, the segment about healing that dude nick mullins(!?) praying the rules... I mean look at that PJ vs O'Neill game, Koston makes the whole crowd pray the rules, i'm pretty sure that was not the only time, too. WTF, that shit always freaked me out.
* I don't know much about scientology, so maybe that is a wrong assumption, but it always felt to me that he was trying to push the whole deal in a religious direction.

That dude pretends like reading "the rules" was a kind of stupid thing to do (Gustavo vs Rodriguez game f.e.), but he surely is the dude insisisting on them being read. The whole rules reading thing always seemed to be some scientology inspired thing to me, actually the whole berrics deal. I don't follow the berrics anymore, but the whole old military theme, the segment about healing that dude nick mullins(!?) praying the rules... I mean look at that PJ vs O'Neill game, Koston makes the whole crowd pray the rules, i'm pretty sure that was not the only time, too. WTF, that shit always freaked me out.
* I don't know much about scientology, so maybe that is a wrong assumption, but it always felt to me that he was trying to push the whole deal in a religious direction.
you're not wrong, reading and reading again the same shit again and again looks like religion to me
-
I don't get the logic behind some of their re-dos.
it's up to the refs who are sometimes regular

I want to see Sewa in the finals, he's really got the mindfucking tricks down.
I don't know though, he might not have the regular tricks down seeing that he missed the frontshuv
-
i wanna see sewa in the final, or at least play shane.
ideally he would play shane then the winner would play mikemo or PJ.
stoked on mikemo vs PJ which will probably happen
-
Damn, Sewa must really want to win this thing, he went straight for the throat. Nick giving the thumbs up on Wes' frontside bigflip was pretty funny.
-
haaa letting wes's hardflip 180 thing go was the best moment out of any of these
-
I love how positive Wes always seems. Giving props and all that after every trick Sewa did.
Also, always hyped on seeing Dompierre in the mix again.

And he gets incentives from DC every time he wears them when he reads the rules. Same reason why he had the headphones on. Gotta get the incentives.
But, I guess when faced with that decision, most of us are going to try to get paid as often as possible.
The cord probably went into his pocket unplugged...

WELL WELL ITS GONNA BE PROD VS SEWA!!! HAHAHAH
i remember watching one of those life episode on prod when he was gearing himself up to play tom asta in a berrics game. he obviously takes the whole competition very seriously, and i dont think hes had to play an opponent so far who has that many number of tricks that he cant do. hopefully hes cool about it. i think when it comes down to it the people who can beat sewz would be shane cuz he can counter with weird switch and nollie double variations, also morgan mikemo and pj
-
Can't hate on sewa. Why fuck around? Go for the neck!!
I bet there is only a few (wes for example) who don't give a fuck. The rest might act like they don't but inside they are punching themselves in the cock when they lose.
And it was Nick who stole wes's muscle milk... The dude was about to bust out of that ref shirt hulk style!!!!

He lands on one truck and rotates another 180. So if someone on defense does a hard flip and then quickly swipes it around it should count. Although wes did not do this at all, I am sure PJ ladd and prod can. Prod had to go into god mode to beat PJ and I don't think that will happen again. Oh yeah or if Dyrdek shows up. So Prod bringing his A game and then some or Rob Dyrdek showing up. If neither of those two occur, then PJ cannot be beaten.

Definitely rooting for Sewa. I kinda worry he'll blow it when P Rod or whoever rattles off basic tricks.. but I can't understand why anyone would be against him. He's entertaining as hell.. meanwhile every other dude is just doing the same shit in the same order. Who really needs to see Shane or P Rod win another contest anyway? Team Drago fo sho.

beauty is a matter of opinion, so is style.
and i gotta admit, his hardflips are popped high, flick fast, landed bolts and a proper ghettobird rare, sewa does them right. his skating is real hard, his 360 double flips look incredible. and seemingly he's a humble dude.
but in my opinion everything else about him is so stiff, his look on the board, his trucks, he himself on the board, too robotic.
same goes for prod, shane, chaz, morgan, nowadays pj...
everytime any of them lands sketchy, it somehow looks better, but thats jst me and my 2 cents

I completely agree. Just watched PRods Bangin and I was fucking bored. But, PJ... Back in the day with his WHL part... Shit was sooo fucking stylish and awesome. By far my favorite video part, but now, it is like fuckk. I don't know why he developed that robotech style. Someone posted here some old footy of PJ killing tampa and it was some of my favorite footage I've seen in awhile. Yet, when I see him skate now... It bums be out. PJ is still a favorite, but god damn. We have to wait for his Plan B part though. Give him the benefit of the doubt.

holy shit was not expecting that, koston really came through in that game, his defence is ridiculously good

That was such an epic Game! Did not see that coming after Morgan got Koston to T with some basic tricks. Eric still got it for sure, but he's never seemed like the most consistant type of skater. The next game against shane, will be just about who gets to throw their weirdo tricks first. Hopefully Koston takes it all

Goddamn that was a good game! Bummer for Morgan, I was rooting for him or PJ for the win. But still, Koston is the shit.

I don't understand why Moegan just wouldn't whip some gnarly shit out for the last trick. That's why th eufck he lost. Still the game was so sick.
-
Ive noticed that Koston almost always chooses paper.
Then he'll usually do that thing where he motions his hand out as if it were paper and he has the opponent use their hands as scissors to cut his hand.
Also, a lot of people seem to forget that Koston has a gnarly flatground game. If he really tried he could've probably taken BATB multiple times by now.

I thought it was a good call. If you don't wrap the impossible, it's a completely different trick. Plus, there is nothing casual about the BATB

Koston definately did an impossible althou it wasn't the most proper one and I was happy that it got called, since usually they let them go even thou it's a totally different trick.

Koston could of whipped out a bunch of dork tricks (pressure flip etc) and took Morgan way quicker. He's was on his game this round.

The Koston/Smith match is the best BATB match that I have watched in years. Jesus... I was actually excited to see the outcome of that game. And Koston's comeback was just so great.

i think koston could be a prick and take the whole thing by doing pressure flips and dork tricks. normally id think that would be a cheap way to win, but with 4/5 previous winners still in it, id love seeing someone new take the win. it would be pretty entertaining to watch all the robots mess up on dorky pressure flips.

I think it depends on the ro sham bo. If Koston wins it, then he has a sporting chance. If not, Shane is going to do all that odd 540 flip shit. Kind of wish it was Sewa vs Shan and Koston vs P-rod next. The other games seems about right.

Sewa has all his circus tricks on lock, but seems to choke easily on the basic stock tricks, while Paul has all the basics wired, but i doubt he has any of sewas circus tricks. I could see this game going either way depending on who gets the advantage first.

i kinda doubt the koston game was legit. i don't trust nothing from the berrics, koston just had that nike commercial with tiger woods in it, they don't want him losing. give koston four tries, whatever, edit three tries out. idk, steve berra's a skeezy fuck
-
Really glad Koston pulled this out, he's highly more entertaining than the boring canadian.

So bummed the canadian didnt bust out any weird tricks toward the end. That koston comeback was awesome. Cant wait for the next round.
Sidenote: if mike mo loses the ro shambo hes pretty much fucked.

Koston is the GOAT.. Morgan is amazingly skilled but cant compare to koston going all slow

whoever thinks koston got favored with the fakie impossible call, keep in mind they let morgan get away with a switch back 180 pivot when koston landed on all four wheels.

If Lil Wil can beat Nugget, Frosty might have a shot.

Koston. Just the man.

Koston's switch b/s 360's are beautiful.

yeah and koston CLEARLY didnt pop 5 of his tricks... plus its been known for awhile now that they always let people slide on wack 360 pivots. i think its a disgrace to learn a hard ass trick like sw bs360 or regular front 360 to only have ur opponent half ass the trick in a way a little kid could do.
why does everyone thinking morgan can do circus tricks?? the only crazy one hes done is the fakie inward heel bigspin. hes solid as shit on flatground and has most every trick on lock and thats why he always either wins or makes the other dude sweat it out to get over him. u can tell he doesnt like to fuck with weird tricks like lazer flips and pressure flips. i dont understand how any conscious skater could hate on him
-
Next four games are going to be good. I just hope p rod or mike mo don't win again.

Froston. Coming through for the old guys. That was sick. ;D

morgan smith is a beast, but its koston.
both dudes killed it. one of the few entertaining games.

Here's a challenge for you. Who would win based strictly on personality? I think Koston is a dick, but he has a personality. PJ seems to have one too, but we only catch small glimpses of it.
Anyways, Team PJ, for the win.

That is a gross over-generalization. It's just an observation, that this select group is fairly bland. There are plenty of professional skateboarders with personality. Outgoing interesting characters are actually pretty common in skateboarding, they just aren't really represented at this silly flatground contest. Also, I've met 3 of these guys, whoopdeefuckingdo.
I think Prod will lose to Sewa.

If sewa wins rockpaperscissors the P-rod might not stand a chance. He can't do hardflips or 360 shuvits that great and sewa has every hardflip variation and 720 shuvits on lock. Moose vs. PJ might go on forever.
-
Since Koston owns the Berrics he'll never win it, so I'm not sure why he participates other than to throw off guys they don't want to win.
All that being acknowledged, it'd be funny if he just won it, since he's kind of a dick (let's all admit it), and then the Berrics pays itself the prize. Yay Berrics.

Extremely interesting.
Pj beating Moose is a definite in my eyes.
Shane vs Koston can go any way, just depends on how Koston feels that day. We all know he's more than capable of winning the whole thing, but why does he need an extra ten thousand when Nike makes sure he's paid?
Cole vs Mo, I believe they both have hurt ankles if I'm not mistaken. Mo has those circus tricks but I still think Chris has a chance, regardless it'll be an excellent game for sure.
Prod vs Sewa: for this one I'm leaning both ways. Sewa has the tricks to take Prod out, but he also has a bad case of nerves. Prod however would do fine under pressure and could use a plethora of switch tricks to try and take him out, it's something we'll just have to see I guess, that match is either going to be really interesting or a huge letdown.

I agree with everything you posted tho. Cept I think Cole can def take Mo, but we will see. Also, Sewa prob has a good switch game. These are going to be some good games.

I think people just get mentally flustered when they play PJ. Oh yeah he's gonna kick the shit out of moose

HOLY FUCK THAT WAS A LONG GAME!!

One of the best games ever. No question.
-
good game. PJ can do every trick.
-
The game fucking blew my mind! Half the time I was certain Moose didn't have the trick in him, but then he just straight lands it clean.
-
That made me a big Moose fan. It was crazy to see PJ just rifle off tricks that you could tell he either hasn't done in years or hasn't done at all.
-
SO MUCH SPINNING AND FLIPPING
-
FUUCK that was regular!... One of the best ones for sure and PJ's bag of tricks is just endless, you can just see that he completely understands how every trick works. Moose should also get a lot more recognition for sure, dude is one of the best.
-
Got.Damn.Amazing! Moose had to be thinking ""What the fuck?" about PJ's defense. Like someone said PJ knows how tricks work.
-
PJ hunted down a moose
Jim Shockey - Andy York Moose (http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_detailpage&v=gaMkfNVA4-E#)

was not expecting to rewind as much as did
kid did fantastic against the overall one seed.

PJ is fucked up. You can tell he can do it all. Good shit.
-
WHAT THE FUCK DID I JUST SAW?????
THAT WAS GNARLY!!!!!!!!!!!
-
lenny in charge of reffing
-
That game made me rethink every decision I've ever made in my life.
But seriously, Moose is the fucking man.
PJ is God. He's no false prophet.
If you told PJ to walk on water, he'd do it with style and ease.
-
I think people just get mentally flustered when they play PJ. Oh yeah he's gonna kick the shit out of moose
yeah pj won but after watching the game i would feel regular for posting some dumb shit like this. MOOSE couldve EASILY taken that game

-
haha i felt so bad for moose - dude went to war and if it was against almost anyone other than PJ he woulda won with a lot less time
-
Holy shit.
-
I got really excited when Moose did that frontside 360 heelflip. I was hoping to see PJ do it proper. Haven't seen him do one of those well since PJWHL.
-
Its funny to watch people try to take out PJ with tricks he did in the middle of gnarly lines over ten years ago.

Exactly! PJ was ten plus years ahead of his time and of course he's still got it! I can wait to see a new PJ part (come on dude, just one more at least?).
-
They both would have shit on mike mo.
-
damm, after moose landed all his tricks i was like: no pj u cant have this one.
it is insane that pj only got 2 (!) letters.
this games comes very close to the cole/busenitz game.

PJLWHL best part of all time.
PJ Ladd best skater of all time.

Does wearing that brickharbor shirt get PJ 10 dollars off of every order over a $100?

pj ladd is the best skateboard to ever grace this planet
moose would have shit on anybody else with that game
-
WOW!!!!! this was mindblowing :P
-
I almost feel bad for Moose, anyone else and he would've easily taken it. Definitely the best game so far though.
-
WOW! Both were awesome, but it has to be a mind fuck for Moose when he pulls out something super difficult and PJ just throws it down with ease.
-
If it wasnt for those inward heels it couldve gotten way crazier. Best game so far.
-
That was incredible. Moose is a great kid.
-
That was one of the best games I've ever seen on that website.
-
PJ's nollie cab flip was bonkers. Best game since Cole/Busenitz 4 sure.

GNARLY
biggup moose....that wasn't no skatepark/hometown hero game of skate.....wont no luck in this shit
THATS HOW THE PROS PLAY
after the bones vid, deathwish, and this....id spend a stack on moose easy

-
That was so fucking amazing, PJ is not human. The dude must be a machine or an alien, he only got 2 letters !!! 2 fucking letters. What the fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuck!!!

I even called Pj winning and I'm still in shock as to what I just saw. Many props to Moose for holding his own for as long as he did, I don't think anybody else has ever held up that long against the man

-
what's crazier is pj ladd missing the same trick like 4 times
-
wow
-
I lost it when Moose pulled out that frontside 360 heel. I wonder if he did it intentionally because of the one pj did in WHL? You don't see that trick very often.
-
Wanted Moose to win this.
Still amazing game.
-
well that was insane
-
It's the NBs. Now that PJ has east coast shoes on his feet, he can't miss.
-
That's about as good as it gets. Great sportsmanship on PJ's part knowing that inward heels were Moose's only apparent weakness and spreading them out a bit.
I like that Moose can't do them actually he's so fucking sick and then just has that one glaring omission in his bag of tricks humanizes the dude. He's definitely in my top 5 right now.
PJ.. what can you say. He is probably the best street skateboarder on the planet, Busenitz notwithstanding.
Loved PJ bailing the late shuv because I can actually do that trick (granted I'm gonna need 10 tries). I don't really recall anyone doing late shuvs at all in the past. Am I wrong?
Games like this give me some insight into what sports fans go through when they watch football or whatever.

If anyone was sleeping in my apartment complex I might have woken them up flipping out over this. Too much goodness. PJ smiles after missing the FS 360 Heelflip in a way that is like, "Ah, I see what you did there." hahahahah! I want to see Moose do all those 360 tricks in his next part, now that he has put out a solid straight up part he should get weird. And I'm soooooo stoked on PJ, absolutely unreal. Plan B video better be good.

I know it has already been exhausted ad nauseam, but this has me thinking about how much The Berrics is incorporated into the skateboard industry. So many people on here fight it and call it lame, however it seems to be unavoidable at this point. It seems participation in these games or a Battle Commander is now akin to filming a part for a company video. It is just odd to me that a skatepark now has this type of pull.

yeah i dont usually watch these unless its a big matchup and that shit was intense. seemed like moose could do every trick except those inward heel variations. PJ out here playin with cheat codes n shit. Flatground excellence
also i was surprised to see moose skating in the supra stevies. i got 3 pairs already just to wear but shit i might have to fuck around & cop some black ones to skate in. (supra reps take note)

All in for Sewa.

stoked on prod not being confident. as long as sewa wins the roshambo he should win the whole thing.

I am very drunk, and just rewatched Moose v PJ. And so we're all clear, in a stupid nit-picky way, can anyone slow mo some of PJs defense tricks? Namely the triple flip and the cab biggerspin flip. Did he actually do those? Or did he just flip his board, land on it, and get awarded the point?
Again, I'm too drunk to pay close attention, but that shit looked kinda suspect.
Also someone should make a Gif of Moose' frontside 360 heel. I'm not a big fan of that kid, but that shit was damn near perfect.

I'm not too psyched on the same guys being in the finals again, but I'd much rather see P-Rod win than mark ass Sewa and his terrible circus tricks.

Just watched it a second ago. Holy shit, hands down the best game in all of BATB6 so far.
Moose is a fucking animal at flatground. If he wasn't playing PJ he could've easily made it to the finals.
I'm pretty sure PJ can land every fucking flatground trick. Seriously, the dude has no weakness. Your best bet is to just do all your tricks and hope that luck is on your side and he just so happens to miss on accident.

My favorite trick of that whole game. Had to rewind and watch it a few times, it looked so fucking cool. Never seen anyone catch and land a sw varial heel or a regular varial heel like that ever.

That game literally had me at the edge of my seat, can't believe moose pulled out the front 3 heelflip ive never seen one of those.

they really NEED to add to the rules "if ur opponent pops his trick all the way around, you gota do that shit too. wayyy to much lee way on 360s, these dudes who dont no how to 360 dont get letter pivoting around on their back truck.
that fr 360heel was popped the whole damn way around
and what the fuck is w pj landing like 3 of those tricks 270 then pivoting back after landing them?? cmon some of those shouldve been redos but i guess lenny made up for it givin him a hard time w the fakieinward

Now do Moose's switch variel heel
do you do many switch varial heels? thats how they look when you do them mostly with the front foot, then fuck up. kinda gross seeing him do that
I admit I can't do sw varial heels, but I've never seen one like that, despite how common you make landing them like that sound.
And I was stoked on it. I like it when a trick is landed with some imperfection. It beats seeing a generic looking cookie cutter robot varial heel, landed bolts.
I like it when someone lands a trick with minor imperfections, making it their own. Perfection gets boring.

a bolts switch varial heel is a thing of beauty, i think if you could do the trick you would have a different opinion of this example. besides, he pretty much stopped when he landed, he wasn't making it his own, he just landed sideways and tic tac'd his way outta there
-
that was disappointing. if only Sewa landed that hardflip bigspin
-
I knew that game could have gone both ways because of Sewas nerves, but damn, still disappointed. I'm glad he had a slight comeback tho and got Paul to 'T'. Matt even made some calls to try and help Sewa out because some of those tricks really didn't have to be redone. Oh well, if he didn't lose today I think he would have lost next round anyways, I just wanted to see somebody take Paul down before the finals again (Rodrigo TX).
So now we got Pj and Paul in the finals, obviously not too surprising. Now all that's left is next weeks two games.
I would personally love to see Pj play Chris Cole again instead of Mike Mo, and I feel like Koston vs Prod would be a good game but so would Prod vs Shane.

SEWA WHY?!?!???
....can we just chalk this one up to the skateboard illuminati

P-Rod put a lot pf pressure on Sewa so he bailed mostly his basics which gave the Rod enough to pull this game.
Kinda bummed though. Wished Sewa would have taken the game.
Sewa rules nonetheless.
-
P-Rod put a lot pf pressure on Sewa so he bailed mostly his basics which gave the Rod enough to pull this game.
What the fuck are you talking about? Sewa was gonna bail his basics regardless, like he's done in the past three games. Acting like P-Rod made a point to put pressure on Sewa is stupid. It's the last round of games before the finals, there's gonna be a lot of pressure no matter what. And acting like P-Rod only won because he won the roshambo or whatever is stupid. Sewa had the chance to set more than once, and he still lost. P-Rod won because he is good at skating flat. Sewa lost because he is only good at circus tricks. It's that simple.
-
You guys are probably right, but it did seem like he was extra off his game today. Just saying it couldve been an amazing game if sewa wasnt so nervous.

damn messed up on a nollie flip, switch heel, switch 360 flip, switch frontside flip. weird game

I don't think I've ever wanted P-Rod to fail at something as much as I did during his game against Sewa. I'd much rather watch some wild-ass circus tricks than watch the same old shit, which no doubt will most likely be the case with the finals of BATB VI. Bummer.
-
I'm stoked. Moose and PJ was incredible. No game can follow that.
Plus there is chance of koston vs P Rod and what more can you ask for than that? Haters and lovers are going to be excited for that game if it goes down.
-
I don't understand how PJ landed such fucked up tricks... That game was fucking crazy though.
I also never realized how awkward Sewa looks on his board. And Paul seemed oddly sloppy, he's usually robotic, but at least he owns up to it.
I have a feeling that this years finals are going to be pretty standard. It would've been perfect if Moose won it all - he deserves it.

2 things I noticed about Moose. Dude flips his board slow, it's crazy. Just watch the difference between him and PJ. Second thing is it seems Moose gets his gear at Hot Topic. Dude killed it for sure.

I wouldn't go that far. PJ is one of my favorite skaters, but I would've been hyped if Moose won. First BATB he is in and was destroying flat. Moose deserved it as much as anyone else.

Your name combined with you making this statement is fucking hillarious.
The PJ vs. Moose game was the first one that was interesting in a while.
And PJ did smoke him in the end, considering the fact that the kid pulled out everything he fucking had and still could barely get a letter on him. I was shocked that PJ didn't get the 360 heelflip. For the record, though one may have been done earlier than it, Shiloh Greathouse did one down a 3 stair in New World Order years before PJ, so at least a couple people have done them in classic skate videos.

Eh, maybe. Sewa has some pretty ridiculous tricks, namely that hardflip fs 180.
I think that Shane would be able to match most, if not all of Sewa's tricks. Like other rounds, Sewa would probably bail on easier/more basic tricks.

How does Sewa look gross on a skateboard when almost every trick he does is popped and landed perfectly. I really question the taste of some people on here thanks to posts like these. Not trying to say that your taste is wrong, I'm just really curious as to what you do like

He's extremely precise with his trick selection and how he does them, just like shane o'neill and a few other people, so obviously we can expect him to be a tad stiff, but there's people who are far worse and look terribly awkward on a skateboard

I can see what people mean about Sewa's style. I just like his harflips alot. They aren't as stylish as Hermans or Wade D's, but they are pop high and caught super clean. I just like em. Bummed Sewa lost because I can dig Sewa's style a hell of alot more than P-Rods.

I was really hoping to see him get taken out, if only somebody else could have done it earlier, but you know how the man is with this shit. But with that interview at the end we all saw he wasn't happy even though he won because of how easy he got put to 'T' and he could have lost. Oh well, it's done and now we gotta wait till next year. Personally that's a rematch I want to see, but it all depends on who is in the next one and how it's set up this time.

yeah but if youve seen sewas other games he doesnt always bail his basics, and he has way more insanse unique tricks than what he just did at the berrics. however i completely agree the shane could match most of them while adding his own. These two dudes have the potential to create one of the most insane games of skate ever, it does suck tho cuz one usually has a bad day. like the prod and sewa game i was so pissed because thats a once in a lifetime matchup and if they both would have been more on point it couldve turned into something as entertaining as the moose pj/, and koston/morgan match. but i guess they all cant turn out that way, it just sucks when the awesome matches do.
Im rooting for shane tho all the way, ive always thought he was one of the best, but im starting to appreciate his skating now more lately. Him and Cole are the underdogs but i really feel like if shanes havin a good day on each match that he will take it

true, but he just seems really nervous in all of these rounds for BATB. I don't blame him though, I'd be sweating bullets and fucking up basics left and right.
I'm really pulling for Shane. I'm pretty sure that his bag of tricks is bottomless: switch tre double flips on lock, nollie late (front foot) heel, etc.
The next few games should be really entertaining.

Welcome to the internet son...Go to any site focusing on pretty much any topic and there are endless amounts of dumb ass people who just talk shit (mind you 99.4% couldn't even come close to doing what the the people who they're talking shit about are.) They're bullshit critics and haters. There's nothing wrong with having an opinion, things you like and don't, favorites and whatever else...But even if any of these kids were as good as anyone competing in BATB (if they were they'd probably be taking part), they have to respect the hard work and skill that it takes to reach that level.
While reading the recent posts in the Deathwish Video thread I wanted to find some of the posters who were talking shit about it and smack the fuck out of them, but hey...Like I said, "that's the internet for you."

There's nothing wrong with having an opinion, things you like and don't, favorites and whatever else...But even if any of these kids were as good as anyone competing in BATB (if they were they'd probably be taking part), they have to respect the hard work and skill that it takes to reach that level.
While reading the recent posts in the Deathwish Video thread I wanted to find some of the posters who were talking shit about it and smack the fuck out of them, but hey...Like I said, "that's the internet for you."
-
"People on slap suck!"-People on slap.

so is this thing still happening?
the anticipation is putting me to sleep

Moose is so good he deserves better than the Berrics

These regular extended breaks that they take before posting matches is awesome. Makes me forget about the whole thing.

I'm happy I've ignored this thread for so long. All of you new posters suck. Your attempts to talk about Slap as if everyone on here is one person is both stupid and repetitive. You're not the first person to complain about this site and if it was as bad as you claim, why did you join in the first place. Your evangelism won't change anyone's opinion and it's just a sad attempt at being smug and pretentious--the exact things you claim most posters here do.

Hahaha yes! I love how you pointed out the things you hate people doing and then proceeded to do those exact things!! Choc full of hypocrisy and contradictions.

In regards to the Battle at the Berrics as a whole, not specifically this "season," so to speak; how long do you (as in everyone) really think that BATB will continue on?
On one hand, I can see them continuing on for years and years because of demand. Even if older skateboarders get sick of watching new matches that they feel like they've already watched, there will still be a new generation of skateboarders that are intrigued at the idea of their favorite pros and ams playing matches against each other for a cash prize. But, it's already getting to the point that the same guys are ending up in the finals time and time again. They've had to incorporate little themes to keep things fresh, i.e. Us vs. Them, Team Berra vs. Team Koston, etc.

I see them going on for quite a while yet. Even though the games are in my opinion pretty stale at this point people still watch every video. I'm bored but every time I see this thread bumped with a new game I wander over to the berrics and give it a watch. I do want them to do something pretty radical to the format but they really don't have to. As long as people keep watching them they will continue to milk it.

Line skate 3 tricks in a row, none can be repeated or even 2 tricks would be cool.
I think that would be a chill format.

Pre-game interview is up. Should be a tight game.
Mo will take it.

BLOWING IT, Cole.
Blowing it

What the fuck was that? If I wanted to watch 2 minutes of Berra talking I'd tune in to the WB and try and catch an episode of Felicity.
-
What a letdown!
2 minutes of Berra talking, 90 seconds of skateing!
Was this on purpose?
-
That was wank.

Cole actin like he can't do these tricks.... that 3 week long break just to see him get skunked. There's something about Mike Mo that I just can't stand.
-
shut up, berra. just shut the fuck up.

Clearly Mikemo and Cole made already made the deal for Cole to be on Glassy. They agreed Cole would throw the game and Berra would bring up that bullshit story about how if Cole ever lost to Mikemo he would ride for him. Clearly.

Hahahah, I could tell Cole didn't want to blame the grip but I'd believe it.

Well that was a buzzkill.
Mike Mo will lose to PJ so whatever.

You know itd be interesting if the berrics or street league switched up formats and just did a fullon flatground competition instead of trying to recreate street skating. Make it like tennis, have sets of matches instead of just one game and instead of letters they could just switch it to numbers. Also the "court" would be a factor, you couldnt win all the way with weird tricks that way or blow a whole game with one bad loss, fatigue would play into it and the games would last more than 5 minutes.

He was funnier when he was younger and a bit more jockish and douchy, but now he's just boring and seems bored with skating and doesn't really put out interesting footage like he used to.

well that was worth the wait ::)
-
I was surprised Koston won that last one, but Shane Oniell is going to take him out. My money is on Koston blowing it at first then dorking around acting like he can't be bothered to try, then lose.
-
Cole vs Mo was one of the most awkward and ugly games of skate.. Best part about it was the LRG ad to start it off
-
Cole really air balled that one. Totally whiffed it.
-
It sucks when skaters get old and lose all their skills.
-
If Koston would have won the RPS, it could have been a great game, but shane gave no chance. Same could be said about the movscole game, but Cole totally blew it.
-
wow. wanted kostom to win but you cant say shane didnt completely deserve it. i figure its finally his turn to win one of these anyway. and yesterday fuckin sucked
-
Shane's skating looks so much better than almost everybody's.
-
Man i wish berra would quit talking at the beginning of these things, its so fucking annoying. Koston looked out of it. It couldve gotten weird. there goes another one.
-
Pj vs Shane final. And an inside source tells me that PJ has those impossible late pressure that mike mo does

Man i wish berra would quit talking at the beginning of these things, its so fucking annoying. Koston looked out of it. It couldve gotten weird. there goes another one.

Another finals night with P Rod, Mo, Shane and PJ, the four dudes who pretty much have been in the finals in almost every single one of the BATBs.... Yaay ::)

He just floats.

Yeah Mo's a dudebro but he's nasty at flat/skateboarding.

i completely agree with you on praying to god koston or shane takes it, just cuz thats the only way itl get interesting.
lol at all the people hating on mo's "personality" which they only know from various web clips, which also clearly he comes off as a sarcastic, slight jock, just like koston. mo has never said anything directly, you just PICK APART what he says in these interviews, in a desperate attempt to judge, when people really just need to get that kind of stupid vapid judgment to themselves before they meet the person. and i dont even love mo or anything, i just find it hilarious 5 people in a row say they think he acts like a "Jock" seriously? who even cares that much if he does, you know how many pro's i love who are prob complete tools and ill never know the truth even if i fucking watched a few interviews with them.
-
Man that was totally worth the three week wait...said nobody.
Anyways, Semi-finals now, and these will actually be interesting:
Rematch with Pj and Mike Mo, really hoping for Pj to pull through with another win!
Shane vs Prod: master and the protegee, I heard their games don't end, so this is going to be sick to watch, although Shane now has some definite tricks that he can get anybody on

wow, people on a forum discussing skateboards and the people who ride them had an opinion on one of them. Here I thought this place was just the Ass, Boobs, and Awkward Sexual Experiences threads.

You too with the black or white thinking? Let me explain to y'all what happens when you become an old man skater: you have more off days and less on-point days. Key words: More & Less. Those are GRAY terms, not to be confused with black or white terms such as all or never.
For comparison, look at Koston in Yeah Right and Koston now. They are both great, but do you spot the difference? Koston at the top of his game in Yeah Right vs an age affected legend now. In this particular case, the legend has held up remarkably well over time, but is clearly not as on-the-ball as he was a decade ago. I'm pretty sure the man himself has acknowledged this before too.

I think Mikemo should be on that list. And to the people that were hating on him, I don't understand you at all. He does everything correctly and struggle to see how he comes off as "jockish". I automatically subtract 5 IQ points from anyone who says that. Also, I find that he's always come off as a pretty happy and funny guy.
Rodrigo Tx. should be on that list too.
-
Although Shane O'Neill has robotic tendencies, his flat ground tricks look damn good.

I thought the smoothness and perfection in his flat ground is why everybody called him a robot in the first place.

Man, where do I start? That response is loaded with logical incongruities.
First of all, I would like to point out that the initial comment was NOT made by me, as it seems to be assumed that I agree with it. I don't. He obviously hasn't "lost all his skills" though, he has been unseated from his throne as he is no longer in his prime. Second, the scenario of Koston playing at the Berrics a decade ago is itself a false comparison. Third, personally knowing Koston is irrelevant. He is a public figure. We are judging his public performances. They are well documented and though he can still skate at an extremely high level (when he has an on day) he is no longer dominating the world of street skating as he once did. Lastly, you are being willfully ignorant by claiming Koston has shown no signs of slowing down or you just haven't been around long enough to see the change.
He's been one of my favorite skaters for 20 years now. I have studied everything he has put out. I have witnessed him in person in his prime. It's glaringly obvious that he has slowed down. He's still a great joy to watch, but he is no longer on top of his game.

In this particular case, the legend has held up remarkably well over time, but is clearly not as on-the-ball as he was a decade ago. I'm pretty sure the man himself has acknowledged this before too.
You're trippinsn. Did koston play skate at the berrics a decade ago? Nope. You are making a false comparison. You don't know koston, you don't know what his days are like. If you didn't notice, he's always fucked up games of skate. You have no frame of reference for your claims, only conjecture. Obviously people slow down with age (someon call the obvious police) but he is showing no signs of slowing down at all.
Man, where do I start? That response is loaded with logical incongruities.
First of all, I would like to point out that the initial comment was NOT made by me, as it seems to be assumed that I agree with it. I don't. He obviously hasn't "lost all his skills" though, he has been unseated from his throne as he is no longer in his prime. Second, the scenario of Koston playing at the Berrics a decade ago is itself a false comparison. Third, personally knowing Koston is irrelevant. He is a public figure. We are judging his public performances. They are well documented and though he can still skate at an extremely high level (when he has an on day) he is no longer dominating the world of street skating as he once did. Lastly, you are being willfully ignorant by claiming Koston has shown no signs of slowing down or you just haven't been around long enough to see the change.
He's been one of my favorite skaters for 20 years now. I have studied everything he has put out. I have witnessed him in person in his prime. It's glaringly obvious that he has slowed down. He's still a great joy to watch, but he is no longer on top of his game.

It sucks when skaters get old and lose all their skills.
youre an idiot.
You're obviously a n00b. That's just what happens when you get older. It sucks, but it's reality.
is that why koston beat Busenitz and Morgan Smith?
seriously, think before you speak.
Got a problem with black or white thinking, do we? Ask any dude over 30 about the age thing. And don't forget to do your homework for school tomorrow.
You have obviously not seen the last Koston match. Or if you did you forgot it. Dude had a off day..

Certain skaters after this should be banned from future BATB's contest. They are the reason that these things are getting so boring now.
And fuck it, I am want Shane to win this one.

rodrigo pops his tricks high and clean but his style is just basic 2 me.

i could watch shane skate flatground all day. Shane, Busenitz and Luan have the best looking flatground. their games of skate are better than some people's whole video parts
dude i love you. these are the types of dudes i live for watching on the berrics. also desarmo, hsu, torey and corey kenn. but yeah luan and shane skate with such precision it makes u wonder how much style can evolve over time...

Yes, somewhat.
As far as i know he's still sponsored by Skatemafia, but always stayed in Spain. He had some footage in a more recent Nixon tour clip together with Chris Pfanner, Alex Mizurov and some other dudes, you know, the euro team...
He still looks like some 90s transplant and he still skates absurdely good.

It was PJ, just found out.

Or is that normal on slap?? ???

just watched the pj vs mikemo game. now the websites down.
wasn't a bad game... could have gone either way in my opinion. both skated great. 540 flip was pretty crazy
honestly that rock paper scissors can really fuck your shit up if you lose. physically skating and mental. Both cole and koston lost the rock paper scissors, not saying theres a connection, but not saying there isn't. but with cole that whole glassy thing was weird so idk.
-
they filmed both games the same night, so with P-Rod giving him that high 5 at end does that mean he beat shane & will face PJ in the finals?
-
Gary justified himself calling a redo on 540 flip after he gave PJ pass for that impossible.\
I think PJ could make 540 flips legit and we'll see that trick more and more often.
-
wasnt mike mo injured? I want shane to finally win one, but pj's probably gonna win again.
-
rodrigos style is eh.... ill take carlos ribeiro over him
(http://replygif.net/i/593)

Rodrigo amazed me when Menikmati came out, and hes still fun to watch. But I'm not a fan of his style, theres something stiff about it.
-
Mike Mo VS. PJ Ladd! Yes, Mike Mo was injured, but he didn't look it at all. Anyways, awesome game just because watching those two flip their board any way always looks good. I want to go learn a new flip trick now.

Berra told him to call a redo. When the crowd was calling bullshit Gary pointed at Berra. Games of skate were cool everything else was shit. 20 min between every game and they had this comedian that sucked donkey dick. PJ made up for everything though. Adrian Lopez talking shit was the best thing in my life.

Adrian Lopez was drunk and was talking shit on everything. Calling PJ weird and calling them robots it was sick. How he couldn't see shit. Mario miller and Adrian were saying the funniest shit to each other. "Adrian do you know the names of these tricks anymore"- Mario Miller

Hahahah! What?! That is awesomely random. What is up with Adrian Lopez, am I right that he left Mystery completely, like he isn't even in the background or is he still over there?

Amazing.
Is there a potential Weekend Buzz with Adrian and Mario coming on here?
Might as well. Booze + industry talk = Great Show
Plus, I'm sure Adrian has some awesome stories, for days.
-
I think he runs Loser Machine but still skate for fun. Im backing a weekend buzz with them. They were getting more beer when the game started so they didn't have to wait in line for them.

Best strategy that I've ever heard.
Waiting in line is the worse.

shane messed up on a switch heel... I was sure he was gonna win, especially since he won the rock paper scissors. maybe it was all that pressure, but it didn't seem to bother him before.

and of course the pressure of the finals kills shane's perfect season at the berrics. this is the first time ive ever not been excited for the finals. i could literally give two fucks if pj or paul wins, which really suck because ive watchd every one of these games and was on the edge of my seat for most of em and now it just ends with these sorry ass matches cuz everyones nervous and the same damn people going into the finals is turning something amazing into something a little more mundane
i think they should make it best 2 outa 3 next time so the matches last a little longer, and it evens out the skill level a little more

Edge of your seat? Damn. I could barely look up from my bowl of cereal for half of these games.
I know its cool to hate "robots", but a pro skater who has been irrelevant for 10 years should just keep his mouth shut.

yeah the game is definitley much different with 300 people in that building, i also heard Nike paid Shane to throw the game so they could still market P rod as the number 1 pro on SB.

Well, there are only two people in the final game. Unless some third dude bum rushes through the gate and sweeps the whole thing, you have a preconceived idea of who wins. It might not be the right idea, but it's still an idea. I don't think there's a surprise in there anywhere.
But to the original point, I agree. Shut up about matches that haven't been put online yet.

Nugget's switch double bigspin flip was nuts.

I'm kinda mad Shane didn't went on Prod like he went on Mike Mo.

Man. I wish Shane did that shit to Paul. Maybe nerves.

i'm siding with the folks who think it shane dropped the game against prod for some nike thing. it makes no sense that he gets taken out that easy when he had more then enough opportunity to unleash the fury. you can blame it on nerves if you want but he wasted NO TIME AT ALL going for the throat against mikemo. im calling shenanigans.

That little kid at the end of the game looked so uncomfortable, hahaha.

There was a WSJ article a month ago...
-
Wow. backside flip late flip is a weird one.
-
When a skater misses a trick, do they ask what they were going for or do they make an assumption in the editing room? I can't even visualize a BS 180 Flip Late Flip.
And 9/10 I side with conspiracy theorists but I could not believe Shane threw the P. Rod game.
Until after I saw the Mo game.
That had nothing to do with nerves. It was way louder than the P. Rod game. Also, did people just not give a ffuuuuuu hence the loudness? 3rd place and all.
-
How the fuck did Shane lose to PRod so easily but whoop the fuck out of Mike Mo in no time at all?
Maybe Nike did pay Shane to throw the game...
Or maybe Prod himself?
-
Yeah Shane just wanted a rematch
-
The final goes up tonight, right? They need to hurry that shit up Game of Thrones is on in a half hour.
-
hasnt shane gotten 3rd place in just about every one of these? hes like jennifer lopez in that movie about always beiong a bridesmaid and never a bride i think.
bummed he didnt win and what a boring finals its been so far overall
-
why would shane throw it, when pj is just gonna beat the piss out of paul in the final game?
-
Blah blah blah, thrown game, etc. etc., I love watching weird tricks in these games.
-
The final goes up tonight, right? They need to hurry that shit up Game of Thrones is on in a half hour.
lol Im watching the red wedding right now.
Also, Prod looked genuinely pissed that he lost the roshambo.

Shit that better not have been a thrown game, I dropped 5Gs in Vegas betting on zigram!
-
What the hell shane! you skunked Mo but couldn't do that shit in the PRod game?
-
Dudes, MikeMo lost that game because he didn't fucking care.
Visibly lazy skating, trying weird tricks and fucking around because who gives a shit about third place?
You dumbbells really think NIKE cares which one of their super pros wins this thing? Also, point out to me which trick Shane missed on purpose.
I bet you guys corner people at parties and make them listen to you talk about chemtrails and tower 7.

i was joking that Shane threw the game for Nike

That little kid at the end of the game looked so uncomfortable, hahaha.
Not as uncomfortable as he will be when he grows up and realizes that he spent his 15 minutes wearing a fedora.

correction: mike mo got skunked because he didnt care
shane was on fire like he shouldve been versus prod, and nobody is going through those tricks, not even pj. shane will take one of these very soon, he just keeps getting better and better
-
shane looks so great on board. that switch bigspin double flip is looked insane. so fast and just floated up there. prod is probably the best skater with some of the most boring looking flatground. i can't really explain why though, maybe he goes to slow.
-
Final game is up. Grab some popcorn and a beer, the video is 10 mins long.
Won't say any more.
-
I want to call buzz room 666 of tower seven on Nike Blvd as much as the next dude who doesn't wear logo tees. However, that semi looked thrown only in light of the third place game.
Let's all re-watch it. Maybe Shane did throw it. Just don't try and fullscreen the DC ad, they get money from that, and I heard they still owe Wenning.
If this is our grassy knoll, our lives are charmed. Fuck the P-Roduct, but Shane is only marginally cleaner, and we assume, inherently less evil.

PS: IS NIKE USING SHANE IN LA TO AVOID EXPENDITURE IN WASHINGTON? IS PRODuct THE NEW LATENT PROLIFERATOR OF THE BLIND EYE SWEATSHOP HUMAN PUPPY MILL?

Halfcab Inward Heel is my go-to trick in Skate3
-
im not going to spoil the winner but that was an insane game.
-
Hah at Koston taking a phone call as Paul is about to try his last trick.
-
Great last game at least. And PJ getting both Haroshi trophies....lucky mother fucker. Dude should be retired from this shit.
-
damn I wanted p-rod to win over pj. but honestly not a huge fan of either. I would have been more happy with mike mo or shane.
I've always wanted koston, cole, cromer, or someone newer to win instead of the usual. I don't really give a shit about pj ladd or p-rod or any of the usuals.
-
That was amazing.
But Shane is still the best. That switch bigspin double flip. Amazing.
-
That was a battle of the giants right down to the wire. Gotta take your hats off to both of em that shit was epic!

I liked Jimmy Carlin in this

taking off his clothes & dancing as the crowd reacted to that clutch fakie 540 flip was seriously the lamest shit I've seen in a while. Holy fuck that was embarrassing. Dude wants attention that bad? wow.
-
Shit PJ took it out again! Epic champ battle.
-
koston on the phone during prods last attempt? nike heads calling "dude, that boston guy cannot win. we put money in there."
-
Someone tell me the brand of P-Rod's cap....
-
#falseflag sombreros
-
So. Glad. PJ won.
Paul rolled so slow for half his his sets.
But honestly, Shane is prob the best to have ever entered a BATB.
I love Ladd way more, but I think Shane would have done him dirty. Shame he threw the P. rod game.I mean...got nervous.;
-
Now that was a championship match.
-
That game was unreal! Prod and PJ played excellent games. Did Pj do that fakie laser flip earlier in the match? I didn't see it.
-
It was good, but shane was the best, he clearly isn't great at dealing with comp pressure in general, i happen to think that's rad. P-Rod probably has an awful style, don't get me wrong he is amazing, but doing the hardest tricks all rigid at snails pace is still weak.
-
That little kid at the end of the game looked so uncomfortable, hahaha.
That's because he knew what was coming after the birthday celebration: hours locked in a dimly lit room being forced to read pamphlets on Xenu.
As for the final game, it was one of the better games of skate I've had the pleasure of watching. All of P-Rod's tricks looked clean and on point. Seemed PJ was a bit sketchier than usual, lots of dragging toes and tic tac's on tricks, but dude is a fucking beast at flatground.
Pretty hyped to see J-Rog in the back, cheering like a cheerleader towards the end. Wonder who he was routing for since he's good homies with both of them, hah.

and of course the pressure of the finals kills shane's perfect season at the berrics. this is the first time ive ever not been excited for the finals. i could literally give two fucks if pj or paul wins, which really suck because ive watchd every one of these games and was on the edge of my seat for most of em and now it just ends with these sorry ass matches cuz everyones nervous and the same damn people going into the finals is turning something amazing into something a little more mundane
i think they should make it best 2 outa 3 next time so the matches last a little longer, and it evens out the skill level a little more
your tripping
PJ v.s. P Rod game is gonna be insane! Boohoo you have to watch two of the best skaters alive play a game of skate.
isnt this the third time theyve played eachother in the finals? sure, theyre both good but whats so insane about a game of skate that weve already seen? twice.
i was way wrong. that was a great game.

Gold foiled nike t's and a leopard skin hat.. Yikes.
I always thought if you re-did your trick ( fakie laser) then you forfeit your turn??

A friend of mine who has next to zero knowledge about skateboarding just sent me this asking if I'd ever heard of BATB.
Did anyone else know that The Wall Street Journal (of all the mainstream media outlets, hahaha) did this article on BATB? So fucking weird.

?hasnt shane gotten 3rd place in just about every one of these? hes like jennifer lopez in that movie about always beiong a bridesmaid and never a bride i think.?
I love that someone in this forum is candid enough to reference J.Lo?s oeuvre like that.
Ha, I honestly forgot about the theme too. They didn?t even mention in the victory proceedings, did they? I can?t say with authority; I skipped through bits of the ?and the winner is? portion, brushing my teeth in front of the computer and late for work. For my harried morning, I blame SB (cool nickname, dude) for not posting the matches earlier. I hope you milked those page refreshes for everything that 2,500-foot NYJAH sign is worth.
I think Shane was able to tear through MikeMo less because he regained his composure and more because Mo just gave up, which was really disappointing to see. Mo, you?ve slouched in every other aspect of your career (one of the coolest, corest shoe brands-->arguably, the lamest shoe brand; amazing breakout part-->decent, but still a letdown follow-up part). All you were reliable for was killing flatground. It?s pretty lame that you got too cool for school once winning was no longer a possibility. Perhaps his supposed injury took hold when he landed on something wrong; but I?m still pretty disappointed the once-16-year-old phenom that could do no wrong.
Back to SB, I can?t stand his cheekiness. You?re so psyched to bestow this uncomfortable kid with birthday joy, but you can?t even try to sing ?Happy Birthday? in tune? Either you?re an asshole for that, or you suck at singing (which I also am happy to make fun of you for).
Great finals game though. Sure, they roll slow and seem to skate for consistency more than style, but it was still a great nail-biter. I?m definitely more psyched on a PJ than P.Rod victory because of the brands they rep. (Of course, they both skate for Plan B?that?s irrelevant. Looking at everyone?s t-shirts, it?s clear that footwear is a marquee skater?s bread and butter. Maybe we should also consider headwear, which implies X-tReMely caffeinated piss-drinks are top-dog). Sure, they both skate for footwear giants, but I?d rather have the little Big Guy succeed than the Big Big Guy.
Miscellaneous, unfortunate behavior:
Jimmy Carlin: nearly-naked antics were funny the first time you did them. Many iterations later and a couple pounds heavier, it?s just a tired grab for attention. Of course, I must acknowledge that you?ve got some moves (and about this I?m serious?I love dancing).
Reda: Fuck you for bowing to Hiroshi all tongue-and-cheek-like. If you?re gonna appropriate the cultural practice of a guy who?s in the middle of presenting an incredible trophy (that that guy masterfully handcrafted), don?t mock that guy?s culture. And speaking of that trophy, I?d bet that wasn?t Hiroshi design. Left to his own creative devices, I?m sure he woulda carved out something cooler than a hand giving the bird.
-
if u do the same trick that should take away ur turn.
-
Crazy clutches in this one.
I love it how the crowd goes from dead to apeshit when PJ and PRod landed their tricks. Reminded me about the Wallenberg contests when crowd blew up when tricks got landed.
-
Anyone else notice how PJ seemed to have predicted the roshambo in this here championship match and in the semi finals against Mo? It seems he's been doing his homework on his victims. Dude's a killer.
-

well when you do like every trick it gets hard to remember
perhaps in the games you play when you can hardly make 5 tricks, this rule should apply

he did the fakie laser twice in a row at the end they should have told him after the first time to try a different trick next time. good game but yeah the ending was a little wierd

I think you should go back and count all the tricks, then try and tell them all from the top of your head - I really don't think you can blame anyone for missing one of the tricks done this late in the game.
-
Go ahead and roll the dices you berra homo.

I feel dirty.
So Steve has to be glory ref, yet does a piss poor job. Okay.
I rarely complain about how things are edited and filmed, but this one bothered me. If this is their showcase, maybe try to do a good job. Show me just how slow proddy is going and with a clean view. It's not a high speed downhill line, film that shit so we can see it.
They're bringing in Gary Rogers, how about having optional running commentary? It might be terrible, but it'd be something. Other peoples reactions, something of interest.
I shouldn't have to mention Carlin.
-
i feel like the most important thing i can take away from this is that p-rod has a leopard print, mtn dew branded, 5 panel hat.
-
so no one is going to comment on the fact that the camera zoomed down to Koston's nike shirt a shitload of times and that he didn't wear the ref shirt just so that his shirt is seen?

looks like he was playing both sides of the fence (note the flags in the attached pics)
honestly p-rod should have won that, pj got called a couple times on toe drag but there were a bunch of instances where they let it slide and the foot was like hanging off. that and doing the same trick twice, i dont know if theyve ever even thought about having a rule for that
did anyone notice that pj got both p-rod and moose out on E with the same trick (half cab inward heel)?
its weird because a couple weeks ago my friend described that trick and was asking what it would be called (we guessed big inward heel) shane did one nollie in the 3rd place battle i think

Every trick PJ toe dragged on or missed, he has set against people in other games. It's sort of like the fakie shuv he tail dragged on against Albert Nyberg, fuck a redo...it's PJ
-
Defensive toe drag ftw.
Batb7 should be all girls.
Know who would love that?
Nyjah

I wanted Shane to win so bad. His tricks just look so much better even on flat. The way he popped that nollie tre against Paul had me shitting bricks.
-

It's fakie big heel, except it's backside instead of frontside. So I guess you could just call it a fakie bs big heel.
Same with that hardflip fs revert trick that Sewa does. It's technically a big flip, so it should be called a FS big flip.
You don't see people calling BS big flips as varial flip bs revert, or people calling rick flips fakie big varial heel.
-
Just saw the final, and it did not disappoint.
I can't believe P Rod landed that fakie 540 flip.... it looked like he was gonna step off but just held on to it somehow.
For everyone complaining PJ should have missed his turn, I know it's a competition, but it's still a game of skate. When's the last time you played a game of skate, repeated a trick and the other person said "too bad, you don't get another try, my turn". Never happens.

All I wanna know is how the fuck they can put up what is probably the berrics most watched clip for the year with such bad audio. I know its skateboarding or whatever and some of our most influential/best parts/videos are technically edited average as, but wtf! Berra has worked in the film industry and made some pretty reasonable film work but the audio in all the finals was inexcusable. For the tiny cost (comparatively) of the audio equipment required to get a feed off the mic to mix with the atmos from the cams. Im halfway through my first year at film school and if i had handed that up for an assignment i would have failed. Definitely not presented at a professional level. Berra we all know you lurk this shit, you should feel ashamed... amateur hour!

I assume that's the sole reason they make money. Companies usually pay per click (after a base price) on their ads right?

Its not a matter of hating on berra or jumping on any bandwagon. Honestly i could give a fuck about WHO it was running the berrics.. i just think if you are going to run an add i have to watch at the beginning of the video then why is it when i go "oh i think ill full screen this" or "oops the volume is gonna wake the gf" and i click on a control in the video player i shouldnt have to deal with it going somewhere i dont want to go. I have no issue with the ads.. i just think its dirty design and sneaky to have someone sneakily "steal" a click that i never intended as such in the first place.

I have no issue with the ads.. i just think its dirty design and sneaky to have someone sneakily "steal" a click that i never intended as such in the first place.
do you not have a mute button?
