Oh man that was such an amazing trick and it really stands out. And on such an iconic spot too. It’s got everything I think… trick of the year.
But o’Grady’s crooked… damn. That really touches me deep down in my funny spot. I’m a sucker for long grinds on stone.
*if anyone has a link to just that crooked that would be awesome, thanks. I can’t seem to find it as a stand-alone clip.

Edit: I changed my mind. The trick of the year is the trick that never went down. It's infamous

Blake Carpenter clip was in Nike SB Trust Fall circa 2019
Walker Ryan switch back 360 kickflip down Brick 9 should be in the convo imo

I really want Jack O’Grady’s psycho Ollie into the tiny double set bank to win, just so I can watch everyone bitch on IG again about how the winning trick is “just an Ollie”.
It was also genuinely my favorite trick done this year, so there’s that too.

Wild this dude isn’t as big as ishod or yuto at this point. Best skater of his generation. Feel like they giving him the same treatment as plunkett back in the day. We just have it now to document his insanity.

I feel like the guy has bad luck with board sponsors. There was endless Girl flow, then Numbers and now SM. All dead ends. Bit of an Iverson situation.
His magnum opus is still ahead of him. He should be on a brand that deserves him. Palace is the best fit. April a close second. 18 and Krooked also make sense to me.

pretty sure he’s going to hardbody which feels like another dead end. Limo is where he fits for me

I think fakie flip Wallenberg the way he does fakie flips is pretty undeniable. Cyrus at the courthouse is my trick of the year.

Far from the best skater of his generation. There’s isn’t a clip of this guy where he doesn’t hand drag or do a baker maker. He marketed himself as big nose slide guy and then had to resort to one foots

Don’t get me wrong I love his skating just trying to think of a reason why he’s not on a good board company. I’ve actually never seen those parts , he definitely skated a lot different in that. My first exposure to him were all the IG clips

Couple other people mentioned it, but the switch nosemanual halfcab flip that Cyrus did at the courthouse was my trick of the year

Fakie flip Wallenberg
Bs flip sw bomb Baxter

No one saying Adam Davies kf bsts bs kf on a handrail? That's some trick of the year shit

fakie flip wallenberg or sw 360flip noseblunt
the real winner in my heart is duaro's sw 360flip down D7, likely the one I replayed the most
-
Fakie flip Wallenberg is definitely a top Trick of the year but has the footy even dropped yet? Just gonna show the contents photo out of Thrasher? I’d personally go with Antonio Switch 360 flip noseblunt.

Ooh thanks for the set up. Tony's switch tre noseblunt was a Thrasher cover this year and the footage dropped so it counts this year. If you look at the board he's riding in the clip, I'm pretty sure it's his first pro model on Numbers. So that clip is probably a couple of years old and the photo was another session but he dropped it all this year so it counts.
I think the fakie flip clip would have to be out for it to count this year.
-
Kf 5050 staples footy finally dropped. Idk if thats the winner. Theres no clear front runner trick this year. Would have said fakie flip but no footy yet.

Photo and clip is within a few days of each other....both this year..he talks about it in his thrasher interview. his riding skate mental boards both times

Has the footy of the Wallenburg fakie flip been released yet?
That KF 50-50 down Staples was pretty crazy. I'd put that as a frontrunner for TOTY

Oh good to know. I saw the photo months ago but just saw the clip and coulda sworn it was that melty smiley face burning world graphic on his first pro board.

Only one mention of Walker Ryan’s switch blizzard flip? That was on another level.

i don’t know man, it’s a lot safer to just do it across a flat gap. you can slowly edge your way towards spinning more as you keep trying it. just throwing it down a set has to be terrifying, especially the first few tries.

From these I'll take nollie 3 heel board. Out of the box trick, perfect execution, decent filming, even. It's a gem of a clip. Switch tre noseblunt landing was a tiny bit sketch. Kind of heel touched. If it was bolts I'd give it to him. I admit I'm thinking more in terms of clip of the year than trick or the year. Won't surprise me if they give it to Sheckler. I hate the trick but it's gutsy and he battled it. And he's pretty connected to Dyrdek. In my mind the only way fakie flip the 'berg isn't toty is if Thrasher ran a bail.

I do hear you but I've also heard of people only learning how to bs 360 after taking it to a stair set to get the extra time for rotation. I also have a personal bias here cause it took everything in me to ollie that same street gap (I'm not good)
-
surprised to not see either of O'Grady's bangers from this year make it into the finalists (ollie into the bank in Croatia in 7 Ball and the gap crook in France in his Pass Port part). despite being a bit of a slow year for the SOTY race, it was a pretty strong year for individual clips tbh. i'd be happy with Walker, Antonio, Yuto's nollie 270 heel board (nollie late flip noseslide is a cursed clip), or honestly Carlos' switch crook the double set rail is pretty fucked.
-
I thought Pedro would get at least one clip as a finalist. The gap 50-50 at the pyramid ledges and the 180 flip switch hill bomb were both sick.
-
Would be kind of sick if kf 5050 staples dude won since he’s a relative unknown. Personally my picks would be Antonio or Walker, but many of my favorite tricks this year were not ‘finalists.’
-
nollie tre hydrant only trick matter
-
I realize I am biased against a a trick down a plain Jane set of stairs which isn't at least a 13. Like if Walker's trick was down a 3 flat 3 I would be much more sympathetic to it. Or even a 3-5 with a sidewalk gap. It's not logical, but I always read anything between about 6 and 12 as basically the same quantity.
-

Sounds like there’s a primitive video coming in February so he most likely would’ve rather saved the footage for his part instead of just hoping to win TOTY. Which I respect.

Definitely respectable. Everyone doesn’t seem to understand that it’s only been shown as a photo. You’d think trick of the year would have footy that’s already been dropped. I understand it’s hard to keep up with all the footy these days. That trick however will probably be shared and posted all over social media and here though.
-
I forgotten about that kid Brandon Johnson cuz it happened so early and I been thinking about that stairs line from the same saying think.
He did that so sick Im not 100 on what to call it
Switch tail FS 270 late flip out or something?
I remember watching it on the Plowell tour videos on Dan's channel. Also the stairs line.
That's my vote. That kids going places I think. The other crazy tech kid too. I'm pretty sure he also lives in the city

Pretty sure the Sage heelflip was this year from a Cons edit. It was beautiful but not sure I’d put it in the TOTY conversation. Maybe THOTY, tasteful heelflip of the year.

The magical one from the Jake / Curren FA welcome video? I would back that over walkeryan's mob ass switch blizzard down a small 9 any day. I think it's between Jackey O's cover ollie or Yuto's nollie fs 270 to switch back tail on that large rail. Life or death that's probably the last thing on the list I would try.
-
I get a kick out people referring to Pedro's 'Backside 180 Kickflip to Switch Hill Bomb Baxter' as if the bs flip somehow added to the intensity or difficulty of the trick. Maybe it's because switch hill bomb isn't really even a 'trick' by itself?
-
G-Shock sponsored "line of the year" and forked out 1000 bucks for the winner.
G-Shock is owned by Casio, a company with a yearly revenue of about 2 billion dollars.
What a fucking joke.

It's a smart way to set it up. It's also an objectively nice backside flip. I would also take a nollie back heel.
I rewatched the KF 50. Back truck definitely lost contact for second. Be a shame to give it Toty considering that. I think Yuto has it wrapped up with the Japan clip.
-
Those finalists selection is so whack. Yuto twice? Walker Ryan's mob ass bullshit? Trick of the Year is Cyrus Bennett's philly bump fs flip what are we even talking about here?!

Yuto got it with the nollie 270 heel board. Gotta respect it.

It's two line.
Gotta trick into the hill ALWAYS in my opinion. Even when you just going to the store o whatever
