consistency is key.  don't think there's anything against redoing a trick so we'll see how that goes.

2 for 2 holla. How could anyone pick montoya over EE.
The sw varial heel attempt scared that fuck out of me.
Why was he trying to drop that before his good old bigspin!?
EE is too fresh!

Most niggas that skate ledges usually have a bunch of flat ground tricks. Montoya is not one of those niggas though.

right?  i was thinking that too.  it must take a certain amount of cash to make sure all these pros coordinate their schedules, but still.

There are so many good games right there. Nice to Arto being there too. I bet Pj, Koston or Mo will take this.

Fuck, I forget if I picked Montoya or Ellington. This was the hardest one for me to decide on.

I could watch EE skate flat for hours. His tricks look so good on that bigass board.

Seems like everyone is forgetting that donovan has all those weird ass tricks first try in addition to having all of the regular tricks.

Ellington's style has really grown into something completely unique to him. It's fucking sick to watch.

RAMIRO SALCEDO
VS.
MIKE CAPALDI


by far the greatest matchup so far. 2 guys who are 100% going pro and are getting more coverage than most pros.

my money's on Ramiro for this one just because hes way more intimidating. i can say right now he is going to get mike on nollie big heel, nollie bs heel, sw bs flip for sure. mike is going to get ramiro letters on sw 3 flip. that is the only trick i can really see him makin that Ramiro won't.

ha
mike mos pro..

Mike Mo and Furby can do all those tricks you dumbass faggots.

If you watched the Vans Downtown Showdown you would have seen Mike Mo throw one down at request as the last trick of the night.



My only complaints for this are how fucking long they stretched this out for...some of the guys on the list probably will have quit skating by the time their turn is up.

And no Chris Cole. WTF, how ya contest gonna be credible when the best skater ain't in it, ya dig?

Chris Cole vs. PJ would have been a sick final.

I kind of feel like this might be a scripted tournament, and the whole reason behind it is to make Donovan seem super legit.  The way the bracket is set up, he would have to beat PJ, Mo, and Koston to win right?  Seems a little bit fishy to me.
