Are all the other dudes getting nothing at these spots? Seems like forrest, matt and reuben are the only ones putting in the work... Saying that I thought mangos feeble was decent.
The after-interview seems awkward too, not negative but what do they expect them to say?
first gap spot, gonzo crushed it, got the most tricks. reuben got a bunch, forrest got three, john got one trick, matty got one trick, nik and mango didn't really skate it.
second spot, over the rail into bank, john got one trick, matty got one trick, reuben sorta got one (sketchy manual), nik ate shit. forrest, mango and gonzo didn't really skate it.
third spot, kezar, mango got a trick, matty got a trick, forrrest got a trick, reuben got a couple, and john didn't get it but sure got some points on that ollie. gonzo and nik didn't.
last spot, reuben got the kickflip, gonzo got two, forrest got one.
so all in all, everybody got at least something the first day, aside from nik who got hurt. remember, this is just the first day, there's a whole week ahead. not everybody likes every spot, and with a whole week of all-day-ever-day skating in store, it's certainly advisable to save yourself a bit.
as for the interviews, again, this was the first day and nobody really knew what to expect. the interviews get a lot smoother and more interesting as the days go by.
