what did Fred Gall do this year?
[close]

killed it.
[close]
Probably pulled some people from burning buildings or heroically saved a complete stranger from certain death. He won't brag about it, though. We'll probably find out in an interview five years from now.

as noble as all this sounds it still does not qualify for SOTY and my original question still remains unanswered

I'll wait til whatever is in that Girl Washington State video drops. I have a feeling Cory will belong in the discussion. At the moment I'd probably say Jerry or Evan Smith.

White Owl · « **Reply #42 on:** October 05, 2016, 11:31:26 PM »

Evan Smith. That man deserves a trophy

weaselhead · « **Reply #43 on:** October 05, 2016, 11:33:01 PM »

As much as I think Daan deserves skater of the year, I don't want him to get it cause I feel like it would be unhealthy for a kid that young to win something that's so blown out of proportion, especially when the kid really does seem like he's just going around annihilating everything just for the fuck of it and doing it so naturally... I dunno, getting an award like that seems like it could fuck up the rhythm maybe

Phelps has been peppering interviews with some insight as of late. Newest Thrasher makes the claim that release date/SAN Jose beef kept Jerry from getting it. And Phelps has been saying the award is a "Services Rendered" consideration

alraunen · « **Reply #46 on:** October 06, 2016, 01:47:42 AM »

My wish is Jerry Hsu but I don't think this is going to happen...

Now it's between Evan and Daan but I read somewhere that Kyle Walker is preparing something huge for the end of the year...

Didn't have that effect on GT and I'd put him in much the same category as DVD.

Is this the year Fred Gall gets taken down on the Slap Poll?

In this day and age I struggle with the idea that a single instance of greatness within a year is enough for someone to win SOTY.
The consistent delivery of content in all formats, like Daan and Evan this year, is where the bar should be.

Like I said in the last thread Daan Van Der Linden or Elijah Berle are going to get it, hands down.

Why Berle? Dude has been almost invisible the whole year.

Busenitz having last part in Away days and that china banks cover get my vote. AVE won last year with pretty much just having last part in propeller and being a fucking legend overall. Dennis deserves it after all these years.

I wonder if the DC/Element combo is going to work against him. Especially since his main competitions' sponsors are Emerica/Baker and AH/Vans.

As far as Elijah goes. He's had a lot of coverage in the mag this past year, plus his KOTR MVP/Phelpers Choice award. Phelps definitely backs the kid. He even said in an interview that he doesn't give SOTY to someone he doesn't fuck with. I wouldn't be disappointed if he gave it to Busenitz He should definitely be on that list. If I had to narrow it down to 4 people in the running it would be Daan, Elijah, Busenitz, or Kyle Walker (even though I'm not the biggest fan of him)
