Can’t wait to see Sewa do the same 5 tricks he does to get through the brackets again.

Brackets are up. I’m stoked that Mike Mo is back in it.

As I was viewing it I assumed Mike Mo would get first pick on the east bracket, why else would you let Chris pick all the favorites? Where was PJ and Shane?

My two biggest guilty pleasures when it comes to skate content: setup videos (What? I like seeing what kind of shit the pros ride, let me live; I've always been a gear/setup nerd) and game of skate videos; I've always thought they were entertaining as all hell to watch and I've been a fan since the very first BATB, so I'm definitely pretty hyped that its back once more.
Also, when they said Jon D I was hoping they meant Jon Dickson, his flatground is a thing of beauty.

If youre thinking of Cody Cepeda than yes he is in it again unfortunately.

I'm pretty sure they're talking about John Dilorenzo.  I wonder how consistent his flat ground is.  He's so technical, it cant be too shabby.

Wonder how that whole scenario plays out, didn't he leave SOVRN under not the best circumstances?

I didn’t even know he was on SOVRN to begin with. I guess I’m an idiot for not knowing that, but it’s the berries so who gives a shit.

I think Cole talks about being pretty bummed on it on the Nine Club on how they brought in all those Joes. Like he was happy that kid beat him, but he hated what it did to it. The original games had a code to an extent, and the only person to break it really was Cory Kennedy, who at the very least was backed by very legit sponsors. Later on, it had guys who weren't really that known, didn't have notable sponsors, who went for the kill early on with heavy tricks or a trick they knew a guy couldn't land.

I know people aren't a fan of him around here sometimes for how he can be a dick. But, I actually loved what Koston did to that kid who was going right to double flips and ridiculous tricks to beat established pros. Just pulled out some fucking early 90's pressure flips that he wouldn't have done to a respected pro. Can't blame the kid though, he was never going to make it and they put up $10g's, but the pros avoided doing it because they already get paid and they'd be viewed as a kook for doing it.

They jumped the shark and can't go back. Was way better when it was just casual games between respected pros.

First game is up. Malto Vs Koston.

Decently well rounded game, Malto with the surprise win. Honestly felt like a long ad for a Malto colorway since the stipulation was put in that if he wins he gets his own Koston Kolorway. Bet it'll be either the Chiefs atrocious red/Yellow or the royals blue/white

That really was a good game. Felt kinda classic. Besides koston’s nollie impossible thingy attempt there were no crazy tricks. Not looking forward to seeing sewa or cepedas clown tricks that are gonna wipe dudes out

Koston’s shoes look like they’re too big.  Weird to see him on a big board too.
Malto’s switch flip maneuvers are noticeably better than all his other tricks.
