Whiteley that call out was right fucking on point. Santa Cruz is one of the most beautiful places on the planet. Gonzo had the typical reaction to a first trip there, Forrest showed yet again what a prick he is
All of you guys bitching about John are missing what I have been explaining to you, and the rest of the judges have all noticed, but you guys still fucking miss because most of you haven't skated hills. that hill bomb the gnarliest thing to go down during the entire contest, and nobody else could have gotten close to bombing it to the bottom, even if there was a runout. The shit at clipper, the double set, all that wasn't shit in comparison. You couldn't fall a couple of times on that spot and eventually make it to the bottom.
You guys can argue and say there was no skill involved, and simultaneously not understand why John was in the top 3, but that dude was shredding everything, skating fast, and did. by far the gnarliest stunt of the contest. All the dudes crushed it this year, and I'm honestly expecting most of them to go on to great things no matter how they did in the final standings of a single event whose most valuable prize is coverage.
And COTG, when you say people should "admit" to shit, it shows a real shallow and lacking brain there. You ever think that a bunch of people who disagree with you on everything else might also genuinely completely disagree with you on one more thing? Just something you may want to think about.
