donovan and malto played with very different strategies: malto going with relatively basic, sure thing tricks, hoping that donovan would eventually slip up on enough of them (which he almost did) and donovan going out on a limb everytime with crazy tricks he knew his opponent couldn't land.donovan played a much better game, at least from a fan's perspective. even when he had one letter left, he still used his turn for far out tricks, while malto played it pretty safe, even going for wenning's fs shove/switch fs shove strategy. you could tell that donovan could do almost all of the tricks he got letters for, he just slipped up, as one tends to do when they're doing a bunch of tricks in a row. and the sickest thing, and i'm not sure if this was intentional or not on donovan's part but he got malto out on a souped up version of the trick malto is most known for (aside from overcrooks). i think it was on purpose, 'cause when they were picking names, donovan said something like "i got hardflips too."

Watching the games of skate this weekend wasn't nearly as fun. I needed the commentary of the SLAP message boards. At times I felt like saying to my girlfriend "Hey honey, did you know Supa couldn't land a 3 flip?"" but she would've just looked at me all crazy.
Too bad style isn't judged in the game of SKATE. I think you should get a letter for multiple crop dusting/mobbed tricks.
how you think donovan is gonna do against PJ LAdd though? hes gonna be tougher to beat than malto. has all those standard tricks first try that malto had, but a couple more crazy ones (fs and bs 360s+ flip tricks, any stance). it will be much harder for donovan to defeat PJ but i can almost guarantee PJ wont be able to do any of the shit Donovan did... Lets just hope donovan doesnt use the exact same tricks both rounds in a row (for the fan's/our sake)i hope the 2nd and 3rd rounds dont have a lot of repeat shit from the same skater that would kinda suck if they won 3 games with the same 5 tricks. from the footage i have seen it looks like he has a lot more... that delophasaurus, spittin straight venom in a game skate son... hes gonna be on some killa bees shit. doesnt look like the next rounds are goign to start til after christmas time.
tricks are for kids , style is forever
he kinda reminds me of J-Rock from the trailer park boys
You're a faggot.

i dont like that donovan guy
maybe i judge him to fast...
I rarely venture into classic slap and the one time I do it I find a guy getting his dick eaten by a dolphin.
''May god have mercy on your souls." Sounds to me like the loser is going to die instantly afterwards.
and here comes coop dogg.....................
fucking kids made BAM rich
I say Benny will take Mikey and Mo will take Furby...but both should be good games ....And who the hell is Anthony Williams? I know he is flow for Mystery but still...I never heard of him.
