Official Battle At The Berrics 3 Thread

You are so stupid. This is why the battle of the berrics sucks. Sure it's a good watch and all but thre are people out there, like you, who actually think seriously about these games of skate and have their opionion of pros formed and or changed by a game of skate. Do you realize what you just said? If you were Ed you'd dock Johnny's pay to make him try harder, harder in a game of skate. In a game of skate. Well if you were Ed you also would have run Toy Machine into the ground. Toy shouldn't have "put in" anybody because it's not a fucking hockey game for a championship trophey. It's a game of skate, they're just fun to play, but maybe you expect people to lift weights and train for them...


Also judging by the nonsense you just disgraced this mesage board with I'm positive you started skating after the internet too. It's been in frequent use since the availability of the home computer, so the late 1980's.

Wow. it was a joke. i used the phrase "dock his pay" and you took me seriously. You are so UPTIGHT. Get the fucking stick out of your ass man. relax enough to recognize a joke when you hear/see one. what are you laytons little brother or his kid?
"disgrace this board"? you have got to be fucking kidding me. my advice is take a couple of slams until you knock some sense into yourself.
i disgraced your message board bitch...what are you gonna do about it?

[Jupiter]

wow. that game lived up to the expectations. 

[Euclid]

Really good game, made me wana skate.

[jaesi25]

Damn Koston lost. oh well .

i will console myself with the fact that he's over 35 and the people who beat him are usually ten years younger.


go Cole.

[popsiclesandskatin]

whenever you see people in the back of these games of skate they all look bummed like they are being forced to watch this.


1:34 theres a fuckin weight lifter!

[Davy]

Seems edited and rigged, I don't doubt Shane would win but Koston's whole comeback seemed like bullshit

Koston seems perfectly capable of making a comeback like that. And there is a ton of people in there, unlike the Heath/ Berra game.

Since when is a nollie 360 double flip a legit trick? That game was circus tricks now vs. circus tricks then.

[close]

no.  shane did all stock tricks except for 3 of them.

So 3 out of 5 letters he got were on circus tricks. Good point. A majority of his tricks were circus tricks. I don't know why you wanted to break it down quantitatively like that.

Chris Cole will definitely beat Shane O'neill though, and would've beaten Koston too.

[ChildoftheGhetto]

Double flips aren't even circus tricks. And who cares if you do circus tricks if they look good? he got him with switch double tre, nollie double tre, fakie impossible, nollie cab flip, and switch big heel. Koston was the only nigga attempting cheap tricks and he still lost.

[tatertots]

that games was too tight, but not even nugget can beat cole

[happy face]

told you fucking idiots

[ratherwatch]

Witness if you will the marketing gold that is Eric Koston;  if Ellington and the failed actor- turned skateboarding messiah had've gone 2- ups on a pedestrian indoor park in LA called BERRIKS, just because the heartland of the industry had nowhere to send it's hungry immigre's, then the 2 major no- no's of skateboarding viewership- flatland and indoor parks ( apart from Senn's part in Celebrity Tropical Fish) would have remained just that.
 Instead we have the tedium of flicky- feet competition re- invented as a vital and valid part of the genre. And pored over by the same mincers who pretend to think comps are bent.

[NickDagger]

The Dagger is at it again, investigative work led me to find that Mike V claims he threw his game with Cole!:



So chris cole should have never advanced and thus shouldn't be in BATB3!! Hez a fraud!?!?!?!??!??!

Just to clarify, you don't mind "circus" tricks as long as they look good, and Koston was trying "cheap" tricks toward the end?
I'm only bringing this up because I'm curious, but first of all what according to you is a "circus" trick and what is a "cheap" trick?
Also, where is the line drawn between the two?

And what you said about "circus" tricks looking good, does that mean hypothetically that you totally wouldn't mind if someone like Nugget or Paul were doing some gay Todd Falcon or Rodney freestlye type shit as long as they did it clean?
And yes, I know that they wouldn't in real life, hence the term hypothetically.

I mean, what it comes down to is it's a fucking game of flatground SKATE.
Isn't the object to do tricks you think maybe your opponent can't do?

BTW I don't really mind or have a problem with any of the tricks either Shane or Koston did, it's ultimately up to the other dude to try and land them, no matter if they're obscure or weird or not popular everyday tricks.

I didn't think it was a very good interview.  I don't want to hate on Mike Mo because I like him, but it just did not go that well.

forum for cowards

stoked on that koston girl board

classic. i like the "oh wait there's more" finger at :12 before YET ANOTHER HANDPLANT! fuck yeah! "watch that ho-ho closely"? what the fuck does that mean? was jamie thomas sniping from the grassy knoll to ensure that his top investment wouldn't lose to the mike v hand plant onslaught? only ron paul is brave enough to ask that question, friends.

i actually admire level of semantics you will go through to give the appearance that everyone else is an idiot, while you are unerring in all things skateboarding. Q:  Since when does game a skate only consist of the tricks you get letters on?  A: Only when The Gipper is desperately trying to be correct.   The tricks that are made are more exciting than the ones that are not. 

[i used to skate]

have to agree w/ CoTG on this one.. even if you consider double flips lame he does them in his parts and it's clearly natural to him.. koston looked weird on even stock tricks.. i love Koston & everything though, just saying..

Do you know what semantics means? It's basically word parcing, which is what you are doing with your definition personal q and a session.  I was simply pointing out that both did kind of obscure tricks that normally people don't do. I don't think there is anything wrong with it. I think its regular to complain that somebody pulled out obscure tricks in a game of skate just because the dude you wanted to win couldn't do them.
Also, I don't create the appearance that everyone else is an idiot, they do that themselves, I simply point it out when they do
Oh, by the way,
Q: What kind of person needs to present his argument in a personal q and a dialogue?
A: A complete fucking idiot.

Ever since Yeah Right, Koston swears so much. I think he has the most foul mouth in the entire industry.




Edit: I think I've heard Koston say fuck more than actually see him skate.

No one has that.

Maybe when he was better he didn't have to swear
