cory kennedy had his game face on, but mine looked like  :-\
this post is out of character for me, but that was the biggest display of "i'm the best man, i did it" i've ever seen. it was be like watching a knife fight and seeing one of the two dudes going straight for the throat. point being there was no mutual respect in there and i would gladly support ramondetta any day over cory kennedy. not saying i don't like him/give him respect for what he does. more like i'm disappointed he took low blows that early on. what could have been a good game was a shit show
/drunk rant
just because he doesn't play around with tricks that he knows peter will do?
i'm guessing those crazy spin + flip moves are some of the only ones that will get him because he's definitely got his shit down

Cory knows pete has all the normal shit on lock, he had to pull out the instant letter getters from the start in order to win.

I know it would be easy to hate Cory for being so serious, but in all honesty I get competitive as fuck when I play skate. It just feels nice winning.

It's not cory's fault he's the best skateboarder.

That kid is fucking good but he did win the roshambo thing in the beginning and that helps.
Also helps that he has a deep bag of hard fucking tricks but winning the roshambo is definitely advantageous.
Bummed that my pick to win it all is out but this Cory kid is obviously amazing and he will probably go really far in this and also in skating in general if he keeps it up.

I thought the whole point of s-k-a-t-e was trying to do shit that the opponent can't do...

The haters in this thread are hilarious. Sorry that some guy that just came up in the skate scene is knocking your favorite pros out left and right.

Indeed. It's absurd to hate on a guy for trying to win a match.

Damn, Cory is good. 

I liked that Ramondetta landed the nollie late flip.  He probably hasn't even thought about that trick in 10 years.

"straight for the throat," my thoughts exactly

cory kennedy was in it to win it, no room for making friends
If you know you can do tricks of that caliber that easy, why the hell go through kickflips and the normal routine.  That Cory kid is on another level and I enjoy every bit of it.  He's gonna be a hard one to beat.

So he's going to beat Paul?

It's not inconceivable. As good as paul is, cory is on some next shit.  Nollie 360 double kickflip?!!!  pffffffffffffffft.  No one has that in their bag, except for maybe Mikemo.  I could see Paul winning but only if he goes first and doen't miss a damn thing.

for all you haters saying how cory shoulda played nice and been a good sport to ramondetta stfu. He saw how benny fairfax got a career just by getting second. He knows if he wins it will boost his career up. Hes just trying to get in the game and all you guys are bitching cause ramondettas not on his level

you took to much

I can't believe people are upset about him doing harder tricks out the gate. I saw corey skating flatground by himself a few weeks ago and he was doing these same tricks. It just seems like he likes skating that way.

Cory on this level versus Chris Cole would be a killer final.

I wasn't to hyped on this game, first because I was kind of looking forward to Cole-Kirchart, but I know that every little kid at my local part will be rattling on and on about:  'Did you see Cory Kennedy beat Peter Rmondetatoootada?" And then insist on trying to do the same flatground tricks in the worst possible spaces. I.E. the flatbottom of a ramp, the exact same thing happened after that Jimmy Carlin video, kids who cant kickflip insisted on yelling "double Dolphin!" and then doing 1 1/2 varial flips.
I guess thats just how this makes me view him a little, the dude that shows up and starts trying the hardest thing he can, without any real warm up or basics to build on.

Has he had any footage that wasn't in a skatepark? (or not on a perfect Cali metal ledge, that may as well be a skatepark?)

Corey is the next Mike-Mo.  Get ready for kids to be doing nollie double flip variations rather than 360 flips where they kick themselves in the ass with their back foot.

Fuck yea, Cory is a champ. I knew right away this game would piss people off. Obv this kid wants to win, I mean look what BATB did for Benny Fairfax... some random guy who has terrible footage went pro just for doing well in it, kid wants to come up.

My brackets are perfect so far but I'm thinking Cory is gonna beat Prod, but who knows what kind of shit that dude is cooking up.

yelling "double Dolphin!" and then doing 1 1/2 varial flips.

HAHAHA I'm sorry skateboarding is a very serious thing for you.
