I guess they had no other ideas this year.
-
Fake! No fucking way they text like that. I'm sure it is closer to stans posts, in terms of spelling and grammar.
-
Can’t wait to see Sewa do the same 5 tricks he does to get through the brackets again.
-
Brackets are up. I’m stoked that Mike Mo is back in it.
-
As I was viewing it I assumed Mike Mo would get first pick on the east bracket, why else would you let Chris pick all the favorites? Where was PJ and Shane?
-
My two biggest guilty pleasures when it comes to skate content: setup videos (What? I like seeing what kind of shit the pros ride, let me live; I've always been a gear/setup nerd) and game of skate videos; I've always thought they were entertaining as all hell to watch and I've been a fan since the very first BATB, so I'm definitely pretty hyped that its back once more.
Also, when they said Jon D I was hoping they meant Jon Dickson, his flatground is a thing of beauty.

Is the one slo-mo skating double-flipper in it again? Can't wait to not watch that.

Idk feels like dudes like PJ and Shane might be a bit burnt out from these contests. same with Cole and im sure others who have been staples since the start. good to see some new faces anyhow

just want to see Roberts and Mike mo skate, but I am pretty sure it will just be their team of other skaters like last year.

I'm pretty sure they're talking about John Dilorenzo. I wonder how consistent his flat ground is. He's so technical, it cant be too shabby.

so will the refs get the difference this time between a 360shuv and a impossible?

Wonder how that whole scenario plays out, didn't he leave SOVRN under not the best circumstances?

I didn’t even know he was on SOVRN to begin with. I guess I’m an idiot for not knowing that, but it’s the berries so who gives a shit.

I think Cole talks about being pretty bummed on it on the Nine Club on how they brought in all those Joes. Like he was happy that kid beat him, but he hated what it did to it. The original games had a code to an extent, and the only person to break it really was Cory Kennedy, who at the very least was backed by very legit sponsors. Later on, it had guys who weren't really that known, didn't have notable sponsors, who went for the kill early on with heavy tricks or a trick they knew a guy couldn't land.
I know people aren't a fan of him around here sometimes for how he can be a dick. But, I actually loved what Koston did to that kid who was going right to double flips and ridiculous tricks to beat established pros. Just pulled out some fucking early 90's pressure flips that he wouldn't have done to a respected pro. Can't blame the kid though, he was never going to make it and they put up $10g's, but the pros avoided doing it because they already get paid and they'd be viewed as a kook for doing it.
They jumped the shark and can't go back. Was way better when it was just casual games between respected pros.
-
i wonder what kaders flat gound game is like
-
First game is up. Malto Vs Koston.
Decently well rounded game, Malto with the surprise win. Honestly felt like a long ad for a Malto colorway since the stipulation was put in that if he wins he gets his own Koston Kolorway. Bet it'll be either the Chiefs atrocious red/Yellow or the royals blue/white
-
That really was a good game. Felt kinda classic. Besides koston’s nollie impossible thingy attempt there were no crazy tricks. Not looking forward to seeing sewa or cepedas clown tricks that are gonna wipe dudes out

can you hit me with a time stamp for that?

who the fuck is captioning these tricks, that's called a fakie frontside heelflip. not frontside halfcab heel
-
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9Y_tUSnhV1k&t=308s
-
Malto has one of the worst styles
-
Good game.
-
Koston’s shoes look like they’re too big. Weird to see him on a big board too.
Malto’s switch flip maneuvers are noticeably better than all his other tricks.
-

I’ve always noticed that too. Explains why he toe drags a lot.

Noticed that too. Wonder why
-

but an amazing switch flip
-
I can't take Malto seriously, not sure why. Great game to start it off with though, hopefully the matches continue with the same quality.
-
every single year, the randomly spliced in 2 second shot of the crowd clapping bugs me. and every year, i still watch.
-
Malto is fuckin good, for sure.
But he struggles with basic ass tricks all the time.
He doesnt even look pro level, then I'm reminded he nosegrinded 10387 handrails
-
Nike make skaters look pretty bad. When Malto was on Etnies he got a decent style. His And Now part os fucking good with to many bangers. Same with Koston, his lakai days was the shit..fakie 3 on big four.
-
I think that’s more to do with his obliterated ankle more than anything. Once you have an injury like that you are never the same...
-
Found it pretty funny that Koston got his final letter on a "Rick flip"...
-

I get it. But hes not even close to what he was
Kockston has the excuse of not giving a shit and being old as Boras tears
-

Yeah, my favorite are the chicks in the crowd staring at their phones totally oblivious to what's goin on, just like out in the streets.
Laughed at Maltos ss fs flip airball, I've been known to do that at times with that move (it's embarrassing)then land it next try, glad to see I'm not alone.

Actually, most of his tricks are flawless when he's out skating naturally.
It seems like he's ALWAYS a bit off when skating BATB. Some dudes just get the jitters when put on the spot like that.

When did you start skateboarding? I remember in the early 2000s, I always saw it called frontside half cab heel!

We all knew how Diego Vs Foy was gonna go. He may be the reigning SOTY but boy got skunked.
-
I hate it when they hype people up just so we can find out later that they are dog shit at flatground.

Both of them looked stiff as fuck during this.

White washed

How does Deigos hat stay on? It's perched so high up there

You shouldn’t buy clothes with velcro it’s a total ripoff

why is he wearing nurse pants? :o

it's crazy that the soty can't do the basic tricks on flatground for a game of skate. I like a lot jamie foy and he is really amazing but it"s look weird

He can do them all, just not first try on demand.

I think that is probably a Berrics decision, they need the views and not many people know him by his real name so business wise it makes more sense to go with the IG name.

Yeah foy also admitted his flat ground game was garbage

diego in fine form, he could skunk anyone in the tourny if he goes first.
I wonder how much time (if any) people put into practicing rock/paper/scissors and studying their opponents previous choices

Diego didn't break a sweat.

It was clearly an effort to bring traffic from the youtube skaters, who routinely get waaaaay more views than traditional skate media, over to the berrics.

But, I actually loved what Koston did to that kid who was going right to double flips and ridiculous tricks to beat established pros. Just pulled out some fucking early 90's pressure flips that he wouldn't have done to a respected pro. Can't blame the kid though, he was never going to make it and they put up $10g's, but the pros avoided doing it because they already get paid and they'd be viewed as a kook for doing it.
They jumped the shark and can't go back. Was way better when it was just casual games between respected pros.
From what I remember they did this because people were claiming they could beat some of the pro's. But i thought it was funny watching Cody beat people with circus tricks...it is skateboarding after all. Also I didnt see the brackets did any ladies make it to BATB11
I thought it was just due to popular demand and running out of gimmicks.
It was clearly an effort to bring traffic from the youtube skaters, who routinely get waaaaay more views than traditional skate media, over to the berrics.
word lol... I never ended up on any of those youtuber channels. kind of try to avoid the berrics because Chase is still employed by them
After the JJ and TNT take down, is it time to reignite the Chase flame?
i still can't believe we tore down JJs wallride and made it a bankride

As I was viewing it I assumed Mike Mo would get first pick on the east bracket, why else would you let Chris pick all the favorites? Where was PJ and Shane?
Idk feels like dudes like PJ and Shane might be a bit burnt out from these contests. same with Cole and im sure others who have been staples since the start. good to see some new faces anyhow
I think Cole talks about being pretty bummed on it on the Nine Club on how they brought in all those Joes. Like he was happy that kid beat him, but he hated what it did to it. The original games had a code to an extent, and the only person to break it really was Cory Kennedy, who at the very least was backed by very legit sponsors. Later on, it had guys who weren't really that known, didn't have notable sponsors, who went for the kill early on with heavy tricks or a trick they knew a guy couldn't land.

It's because his go-to bag of basic ledge tricks is kinda small and he doesn't venture far beyond tech tricks and jumping over stuff. Watch his slides and grinds game with Tiago, he can't front crook or switch back tail (I thought everyone from Brazil could??) very comfortably. 99.9% of his ledge tricks are a flip into/out of a noseslide or switch tailslide, which always makes me feel a little ripped off even if the part was free. The song in his week long cruise part is dope as fuck though and made me want to go skate immediately

You are out of your mind if you think luan hasn’t put out a decent video part
-
I think Luan's problem filming a great part is his disinterest in skating big stuff which it totally understandable when you're making a ton of dough skating contests and having fun just skating flat and benches. But his flip tricks are what make him so special, so I think a great Luan part would look something like a classic Reynolds part with him rifling a ton of flip tricks down some 15 stairs and stuff.

Last year Hyun Kummer came to my hometown to skate a best trick contest, which was held at different street spots in the city. The dude cames off as super arrogant and pretty much socially regular. He did skate really well in the contest though, but usually needed a few tries to land his tricks.
Here's a video. Come to frankfurt, we have alot of spots that are bust free!

Coming next year... "What was the skater doing prior to this game of skate?"
Skater 1: "Well, I'm in the middle of filming this video part, we skated from sunrise to well past sunset yesterday. We were out lighting up spots into the wee hours of the night. Woke up and now here I am at the berrics warming up, I literally haven't even taken my morning shit yet"
Skater 2: "I just kept it casual yesterday, flatground session for about an hour then hit up the local spa for a deep tissue massage and some sauna relaxation. Got to bed early last night, woke up, took my vitamins, did yoga for a little bit, drank a smoothie"

calling it now, other than malto fucking around the first game, absolutely no self respecting skateboarder will be throwing a flag and calling in a challenge

Not that into Carlos' video parts, but his flatground is a thing of beauty that I will re-watch.

If every game started out with kickflip and shuv and went slowly from there it would be even more unbearable. We know all y'all got the basics and have been warming up for an hour. Fuck it get to the big flips asap.

Yes Sewa is way better at flatground, but I prefered Decenzo's style over Sewa's stiff and overtrained looking approach. Sewa looks kind of like a freestyler when he skates flatground.

Decenzo’s style is atrocious and Sewa just looks like a robot when he skates flat, just so boring and uninteresting. Kind of like Chris cole in these things. At least Sewa did something other than a 540 flip and hardflip 180 variations.

You don’t flip your board much anymore because you probably ride a board that’s too big and heavy for you. Try a deck with a smaller wheelbase and smaller wheels for quicker pop.
Nobody just decides that they don’t won’t to do flip tricks anymore, there’s got to be more to it. And don’t be proud of your trick regression, get back out there and flip your board.

-

in this case its not dirty because sewa would have 5-0'd SD without using any hardflips.
like it or not hardflips and inward heels are standard tricks and you should be able to do them in every stance if you're hoping to win a SKATE competition.
hardflips are also sewas go to trick it's a given he's going to do them, scott had his chance to play actually dirty and pressure flip him to death or something but did ugly ass fakie heels instead.
-
I know I’m not one to talk but that was the ugliest 360 shuv I can ever remember seeing. Even amount the other “stank” tricks.
Thy should have put like another winner agains Sewa and get one of the top games over with.

What is that thing the Berries does where whenever I close out of the window the audio continues playing and I have to force quit Safari to make it stop?

What I mean is that instead of doing a trick in one natural movement he is sort of doing it in different steps. While he is not as stiff as a freestyler and he does have massive pop his foot placement and his pop seems as consciously calculated as that of a freestyle dude who spends hours training his routine. It looks like a very 'heady', calculated and 'over-trained' approach to skating. Just my personal opinion. Obviously he is very good and will probably win.

I came here to chime in on how ugly that Decenzo skates but the Sewa comments got me sidetracked. The only tricks Sewa does bad are 360 flip/shoves. Everything else he does is nothing short of goddamn impeccable. You are fucking lying to yourself and everyone else on this board when you say otherwise. Straight up indisputable. I'd slap a nigga across the face if they tried to tell me those fs flips weren't amazing. Might be the only thing that could bring them back to their senses.

You're bored.. Go skate, dude. You're 24 hs in slap.
Maybe when you make executive bar back they'll give you a desk and a computer that you can be logged into and look at all the smiling boys you want. Just smiles on boys all day long. I know you love a good smile on a boy.
When you got my style I'll smile on you. You got Switch 3 s like me? No, you're very busy on slap and making gif of other skaters. What a looser!!
Oof dude I've seen your style if that's your bragging point I'll stop making fun of you. If you think it's that good that explains a lot. But I don't have switch 3s I'll give you that. I have a job, a brain, and this heavy heavy penis but no switch 3s.

you don't need to capitalize words like switch and job, starting to think you're username isn't intentional misspelling

I think you wanted to make a point about me not skating, but that's not true and is probably the extent of what you could think of. Also I saw your 360 flips so something tells me your switch 360s are powersliding turds.

I came here to chime in on how ugly that Decenzo skates but the Sewa comments got me sidetracked. The only tricks Sewa does bad are 360 flip/shoves. Everything else he does is nothing short of goddamn impeccable. You are fucking lying to yourself and everyone else on this board when you say otherwise. Straight up indisputable. I'd slap a nigga across the face if they tried to tell me those fs flips weren't amazing. Might be the only thing that could bring them back to their senses.
I agree, but those 360 flip/shoves are so disgusting, that I have a visceral response and never want to see him do ANYTHING again.

I think the most offensive thing about him is that he genuinely thinks doing 3 flips like that is really cool looking. It's clearly not natural for him as evidenced by his 360 double flip being done perfectly without stank leg. I guess that shit still sells boards to 13 year olds. At the very least he has poor taste and that's unforgivable.

i am with leetgeek on this one. sewa
does his tricks fucking proper. his fs
flips on flat are nice. pop and rotation.

sewa vs walker ryan going to be a heated match with the winner likely facing deigo after
this year seems pretty easy to predict i feel like kader and mikemo are the only wildcards..
top 8 will likely be mikemo, asta, joslin/cepeda, luan, ishod, deigo, sewa, and i cant call out of the bottom 4 on right side of bracket

Next year it should be circus tricks only. I don't need to see people plodding through kickflips and 360 flips, I need nollie impossible variations.

Next year it should be more like Baseketball.
Psych outs, bb!

Sorry Denman but your ref privileges should be revoked for allowing a front 180 pivot to count against a proper front 3
The fact that the nobody did it that way without even trying to make it look good just screams bad taste.
Also why the fuck would you edit in applause after that
Literally no skater would applaud that god awful one third assed attempt

80% of the dude skating against Louie's tricks were terrible to see. And the decenzo. Awful. I wish I hadn't watched those matches.

i hate it when someone does a proper 360 and then their opponent just half asses it like that.

Justin’s 360 should not have counted lol.
I loved Louie’s cab flip, I cheered out loud at that one.
Anyone have a list of skaters who won RPS and then missed their first trick?
Add justin (never heard of him) to the list.

I’m okay with some leniency on defensive 360’s, but that was ridiculous.

For real plus he gave the kid like 3 extra tried on the cab flip when clearly he wasn't close to land it the first 2 tries. Justin has ugly style.

Right. Like if they slid the last 90 degrees or w.e I’m fine with that. Justin literally twirled around on his back wheels the majority of the rotation. He’s not the first one that got away with that before though.

Who the fuck is that Drysen loser and why is there?

Ha, I liked that Drysen kid in that game. Wanted him to take it. His human looking flatground is refreshing.
Just checked out some of his shit online. For a cali kid, he's actually pretty sick, which I normally never say. Looks like he gets stuff from Quasi.
If someone helped him out with marketing himself, he could be huge in the fat bill bullshit world.

So, this is what generic Cali kids look like, these days?
-
1. White people who aren’t balding and under the age of like 30 shouldn’t have shaved heads.
2. Justin Drysen may have the worst style I’ve ever seen.
3. Tf was going on with the cab flip and 360 calls. Game should have ended 2 minutes earlier.
Ehh at least after this hell likely disappear forever and quasi will put Dane on and give him the extra money saved from not having to get this weirdo boards anymore.
All hail Louie for being professional still cause I would’ve made a fuss over some of those tricks.

OK gotta chip in on Sewas yo flips. Usually I see when regular 360 flips are yo, fakie 360 flips are "normal". Sewa has mastered going yo fakie.

Suggestion:
As long as we’re going to read the rules (every match), clip that piece of paper to a clipboard or laminate it and set it on some wood... just add some weight to it.
I feel I’m watching these and every time I’m looking for two nervous hands that shake while they hold and read the rules.

didn't really have any expectations as I don't really pay attention to either of these guys; doubleheelflips aside, that was a decent game.

easily my favorite mcclung not counting the extremely rare travis mcclung, seldom seen
-
Robert's grown on me a bit. He seems like a good dude with a solid style. Taylor is my favorite McClung and I feel like he gets slept on a lot.
Idc, I love nollie/switch double heels. After watching these for ten years you get used to them.
-
Taylor easily the most enjoyable to watch out of the Mcclungs.
-
never would I have thought I would root for a mcclung ... such a solid style and neal just seem full of himself. also, I dislike double flips a lot, so that may have something to do with it
-
Taylor's style is straight BOLTS.
-
i bet this mcclung would've helped the pizza guy up and offered him a slice, just sayin

should've stayed in the bathroom

same ender as Wade/ Ishod game: could late front foot flips be in the Primitive contract?

I hate when people start games with kickflips.
Super wack Sunday game this week.
-
If I made it to BATB and missed a switch flip and nollie flip I would quit fucking skating. I've been watching this shit for too many years to watch this bs.
-
robert is really sick
-
Why do some of these guys skate flatground like a 14 year old who just started skating? I get that flatground isnt everyone’s strong point but it baffles me that some of these guys who are pro level can barely do basic tricks on flat, or even struggle popping tricks more than a couple inches off the ground.
-
robert is really sick
Imagine if his name was Bobert.
-
Are you guys 10 years old? Not every pro can do every flatground trick, a lot of them aren't even that good at flat. Anyone remember in the early ones when they got P-Rod on backside flips every time? (he did learn them later on) People have their strengths and weaknesses. Sure Nate Greenwood was a bit off on the switch flip game, but he was also playing against Felipe Gustavo (insane at flatground) and he did start off landing a bunch of shit with good clean style.
Remember dudes, just because you can do a mobbed switch flip and some dude misses it in a BATB game doesn't mean he sucks just as bad as you do.

you'd think that if berrics is gonna bring in some fringe industry guy, that he wouldn't be terrible at flatground tho. the wrong kind of exposure

Everyday day I'm more and more a huge fan. His skating is just so hypnotizing to watch. Wish his pants were more in the bryan herman or beagle realm though. Can't stand that midwest tubular cut those cargos he always wears have ;D.
Interesting to see he had some weaknesses too. I would have thought switch bigspin is nothing to him.

Gotta love how at the last letter Asta started all over with heelflips. That's the most noble way to win a game of the skate - find the simplest tricks the other guy can't do.

Ever since he said on the Nine Club that he has like size 7 feet, I can never watch him skate without staring at his tiny baby feet.
I was hoping for the miracle comeback. Great game of skate regardless.

So happy to see Mike Mo getting back into the groove again. I didn’t understand that heelflip bullshit that Roberts pulled. Just play by the rules like everyone else you kook.
EDIT:
Watch Mike Mo go to the finals with a paralyzed foot. I bet he’ll still whoop everyone.
-
Switch flip wheelie made me laugh.

crob gives the people what they want.
prod hat prayer is nice too. solid game.
-
Although I felt the ref's first call on Mike Mo was a bad one (it looked like he managed to keep his toe from hitting the ground), the janitor has been the best ref so far.
-
I enjoyed watching the two of them do some
Tricks. Yeah some of that was prob premeditated or whatever but it was nice to see a bit of variety in the games. Trying not to let it go completley stale.
-
crob's switch flip manual and mike mo trying teach him how to impossible late flip was entertaining. those dudes are good at flat ground.
-
That was such a good game. Nice to see mo out there and they probably should have crob just ref the rest of the games. More entertaining than I have given him credit for.
-
I honestly forgot CROB is good at skating after only really hearing him talk for the past decade
-
C rob does his impossibles like a freestyle skater
-
I had the craziest synchronicity with this game.
So the trick mike mo did, half flip flip hack over on the wheel.
Well I imagine most of us have done that at one point. I have, maybe like when I was 12 but here’s the part: yesterday for the first time since I was 12 or whatever, I thought of that trick and tried to get one of my friends to do that same fucking trick!
And today it’s in the video.
Another minor one is that yesterday I did a no pop shuv and a no pop shuv rewind.
This game was something- an obvious connection through a glitch in our simulated reality.
I like to call them Bleed Overs
-
That game made my morning. Was expecting some silly legion of doom shit. But no, MikeMo can really skate again, and Chris Roberts still got it!
-

Crob is a freestyler, just ask Steve Olson.

He's got a real nice 360 flip. Glad to see him still skating, and skating well. It's a shame about his accident. I think he would have been up there with shane o'neill when it comes to tech skating.
-
mike mo is really popping his tricks. good to see he's still got it.
-
Happy mike mo won feel he can still do decent he just doesnt have the same speed/power he used to obviously kinda sad. Him vs Malto should be good theatre though.
-
The only game I wanna is kader v ishod! Where he fuck is it?

follow him on YouTube. Him and P Rod (from just before Paul got hurt) just did 100 backside flips and both combine probably only missed 5-6.
-
My inner 14 year old self got super giddy watching Mike Mo skate Lakais in 2018. Considering how fucked his injury was he is super lucky he can even walk let alone skate flat pretty well. Hope to see him hopping on some ledges soon.
-
impossible late flip makes no sense, and him teaching crob how to do them was incredible. he did like 4 in a row with one foot while talking
-
Loved Crobs 2x heelflip....I always thought that too, why not do the same trick twice in a row ;D
-
turns out its ishod vs tj rogers now... :(

What happened to Kader?

I thought these games were filmed like months ago

I know he probably doesn't know what team he's wearing. But as a Spurs fan, seeing Ishod skating with that shirt on made me extremely happy
-
Ishod asleep at the wheel... I don't like comparing him to penny because its sorta apples and oranges but the complete lack of caring/pop from ishod is very reminiscent of lazy early 2010s penny, except ishod is a million times better than penny was when he was in that phase.
Ishod is soty every year, he's the best skateboarder I've ever seen
-
Ishod is already at a goat status but I wantes TJ to win because he had better pants

Looks like somebody doesn't watch or know anything about football...seems like you're right
-
i always root for blacsoty pride of dirty jerz killer in any context.
however, some of tj's tricks were the best/nastiest ones done in the in the games thus far. i could see ishod taking the barely there route on purpose, to avoid getting into a bust out/ill popped contest. smart man.
i knew about tj, but didn't i know that about him. very sick

TJ doin the switch varial flip again was very noble of him..

I would bet that was better game than what would have been if Kader had showed up.

agreed doubt Kader would focus on his flat game at this point. Rare to see a young ripper with a deep flat bag other than lil will or Mark Suciu

You already know Sewa won just by looking at the length of the video.

Walker Ryan looked better of the two in that game and that's saying A LOT.
And, nice volcom shirt Roberts, you fucking toolbag.

Yes.
I want to see Ishod beat one of the mclung brothers then have sewa skunk ishod using only double flips and shit... and then Ishod will train the other the Mclung brother and run on the beach with him. It’s gunna be fucking awesome.
-
Mr serious, Sewa wins again no surprise. Walker Ryan's switch impossible though!? That was the real winner.
-
Seems like there's no sponsor this year. The Berrics really isn't as relevant they used to be.
-
They really thought the flag thing was a good idea but it's really not.
-
^it only works if it's friends playing or if it is not that serious, like Malto/Koston, Crob/Mo and it will be use in the Mo/Malto game. But in every other game people take this shit very seriously so using that would be weird.
I just watched a couple of old batb and it's funny how most pro did not give a fuck about this.
-
How could a pro street skater miss two halfcab flips in a row??? Carlos’ face said it all.
“I’m on T man come on man I’m on T” fucking jock ass kook. The flags are a good way to expose yourself like that. Trayvon McLong is trying so hard to stay relevant it’s pathetic. Glad that pompous piece of shit lost.
Batb really needs to bring back pros vs joes. People like Moses Adams really deserve a second chance over kooks like Trayvon. Hell he’s the only one who survived Sewa’s hardflip fs 180. Corporate sponsors will probably be against it though. Luan and Sewa were dangerously close to losing their first rounds, and nick holt beat two champs.

-

His back leg starts going the same way he scoops the board right after the pop, but he stops and make it go back sideways like he was trying to do a late nollie flip which is stupid cause the board isn't under his back foot anymore.
It's unecessary, there's is no relation between that late move and the board rotation whatsoever. The only reason to do this would be aesthetics but it doesn't make any sense because it looks ugly and dumb.
And this shit is already mainstream for treflips and shovs, what's next kicking your leg back while doing kickflips? what about kicking your leg forward while doing nollie flips? Where is this disgusting shit leading us? is every skateboard trick gonna end up looking like a benihana?
-

They way he does it gets a pass (definitely not beautiful though), until the moment he does that pissing dog like motion with his back foot. Oh boy what a trigger.

Ironically his switch Tre looked pretty good, I dunno how to .gif it
-
Well I for one enjoyed that game more than I expected to when I saw who was playing. I was watching and wondering why it seemed light-hearted and like the two of them were having fun etc, then I remembered they are teammates.
While I don’t neccessarily like the introduction of the Red Towel / opponent gets to challenge a make, I interpreted McClung’s use of it as reasonable and sort of jocularly wanting to keep the game going and acknowledging his being on the ropes. It certainly didn’t seem to me like some “bitch move” or whatever the fuck you wanna describe it so it seems lame.

I can't get over how bad it looks! But the more I am watching it I also start to wonder if he was actually going for some variation of front foot impossible? I am not trying to justify learning such an ugly trick - unless you are Daewon, then it is okay (But Daewon is on another plane of existence than the rest of us)

And all that dumb positivity and dapping after every trick, I wanted him to lose so bad and I don't even like the dude he was playing.
And switch double heels are disgusting, switch fs double heels are an abomination.
Dude did one good switch front shove and everyone thought he was the shit. The nollie back heel everyone thought was great was rocketed to shit and he landed sideways. Dude is overhyped.

I would’ve put money on Diego or Joslin to win this. Diego is usually setting it off the whole game. Luan Ishod or Trent will hopefully win.
Cepeda vs joslin is on the bracket. Lollllllllll

yeah maybe he's not terribly watchable, but beating a healthy champ is an accomplishment. with two straps unstrapped nonetheless.

Who would have thought that a guy who is good at doing technical tricks down 20 stairs could do them on flat?

-
I was really hoping cepeda would just go ham and do all the crazy tricks right off the bat.
I wanted Joslin to win but the game is skate etiquette is bs
-
if you are skating in your normal stance, id expect someone to be rolling with some speed. god cepeda is slow, dont know if because he is tall it seems slower, but man. minimum speed limit for next year?
-
i never want to see that fucking double flipper ever again.
hey, shout out to joslin. i always respected his gnar level but wasn't into him but recently his style has improved dramatically and his ability to skate all terrain has gone off. skating fast, popping the shit out of stuff, killing tranny and ledges it's kinda insane. still not my favorite or anything but i def check out the footage is producing the last 2 years

I’m stoked to see MikeMo being able to skate again.
Yeah me too.
On a different note, is it now just accepted that if someone sets an impossible you can just do a 360 shuv? I feel like there should at least be some sort of attempt at wrap

that’s how i play skate with my homies too. to be fair it’s hard to be able to do both a 3 shuv and an impossible because it’s like the same trick but done differently. i can 3 shuv well but an impossible is really impossible for me to do and i don’t know anybody who is able to do both.

let's all just keep our fingers crossed and pray to xenu that they upload a rickk vs kenny battle this week

Joslin vs Cepeda game was great, and I dislike Cepeda too. Joslin matched some pretty crazy tricks. No one expected him to be as good at flat as he is but that dude can pretty much do anything.
Mo is skating with a paralyzed foot, just keep that in mind. The fact that he can still be that good at flat with a paralyzed foot is mind boggling.

His skit in doll fucked me up. I’ve watched a few of his YouTube videos and his first game of skate and figured Ight he got flat again. Doll made me think he might be almost at a point to skate decent ledges again too. That’s insane. His nine club made me think he’d never be able to even skate flat well again let alone a joke attempt at a ledge trick. Good to see him back

There was some interview or something where he talked about ledge skating being almost impossible for him. Wish I could remember exactly where I saw that. Hope that won’t be the case forever though.

Watching Joslin match every single one of Cepedass bullshit tricks was one of the most profoundly satisfying things I've seen in a while.
My sentiments exactly.
also, this is actually what i wanna see, some dude trying to fuck another one with weird shit, and the other dude smoking him.
Another thing that makes Cepeda inherently unlikeable is how fucking self conscious he is. Dissatisfied shrug after every trick
Everything above is spot on...but, even joslin has some shrugs going on...does Cepeda get a pass because he's on Svorn so he can compete? Is he even pro?

And he's still just as good going switch as he is going regular, that really shouldn't be possible. Must have one hell of a physiotherapist in addition to that brace (aside from his one in a million talent of course). In any case seeing him pop his tricks like that really made my day, hopefully we'll still get to see a lot more.

Ok my comment was harsh. I just think he'd have more fun and in turn be more fun to watch if he just chilled out a bit. Seems real serious all the time. Didn't he win some comp to get into one of the previous BATB's, guess they just let him stay

I didn't take it as harsh, it's true. But a many of the pros will shake their heads in either a damn, I made that? or ugh, that was sketchy sort of way.
Bullshit tricks or not, they still count.
I want to see someone come in and wipe the floor with impossible variations...regs, switch, fakie, front foot, switch, fakie, etc....oh wait everyone can just 3-shuv and get away with it ;)
Cepeda is good, but fucking Joslin if fire, king hucker and a serious flat game.

I think Mo might be able to do some ledge tricks that barely involve his paralysed foot. Since he hurt his left foot I think he might be able to do some tailslides or 5-0s or something.

Why does sheckler sound like he's gonna cry reading the rules? He seems troubled and sad. Uncomfortable in his own skin.

Ishod is just kidding. Watch his old games and see he can pop everey trick and go casual fast. But like I said, dude dont care. His skate is for fun. When you just turn relevant for play BATB games you career is nearly at the end.

He’s denifitely not back to 100% and isn’t trying to fuck himself up over a batb game. Isn’t that obvious?

Im thinking it’s all a joke this one. What’s luan a living situation. He stays full time in Brazil right? Maybe his visa was up and Ishod was gonna be on a trip when the finals were planned so they just gave it to luan to capitalize on his time here . With them both being on Nike maybe it was a hey Ishod we have trips planned with you and you had a part and the shoe and we need to push luan right now cause he hasn’t had much content this year.

I think Ishod is a little self-conscious after coming back from an injury and masks it by being over the top.

Not to change the subject, but I’d love for the grinds and slides to be a bigger deal. I find it a lot more entertaining than batb. I love the ones with Tiago because everything he does is full speed and he grinds the entire fucking thing every time.

Also, fucking Luan man, animal.
Sewa vs. Luan, it's on...hopefully Sewa doesn't pull out the 360 double flip or pressures when the uh, pressure is on ;)
That said, there is a finite number of tricks everyone seems to have the basics on lock, even switch, it's the crazy shit that we really want to see anyway, right? Oh, he lost the match due to a switch hardflip....zzzzZzzz

It's at least as old as Ishod's round 2 game with Louie; Ishod's rocking the same fit + setup and C.Rob is there wearing the same thing, so it looks like the same day.

I wanted Tom to win but I don't think he has the weird tricks to take the whole thing. He's very consistent with almost every trick but I think Joslin might end up with more consistency and confidence

For sure. I honestly have no idea how he's doing this with one foot that doesn't even work. His flick looks hardly impaired at all. Inspiring as fuck.

So much better than the regular one! You think anyone has ever told him in person how terrible that looks? The rest of his flatground is actually pretty nice on the eyes.

How long have you been back skating, Roisto?
A few months or something like that after the last surgery. They had to take the titanium out of my leg cuz the leg got sore with harder exercise (like skating) but that kinda took longer to figure out than it should have as the public healthcare here only cares about you until you can walk quite normally. Overall it's been close to two years now since I broke it and am still doing physical therapy to get it back to what it was now with a non public healthcare physical therapist who cares about more than only walking. It's slow but it's definitely getting better. Skating yesterday felt better than it has in two years and that made me really happy. :)
This was a great game otherwise too. I really like Tom Asta's skating. This year I've liked some of these games way more than I usually do and am actually looking forward to the finals. Unthinkable! :o
-
Mo’s the man hyped to see him make it this far but I did get a kick outta him missing the impossible late flip thing and in return got beat on normal tricks. I’d like to see Asta in a slides vs grinds style GOS, he is insanely consistent on ledges.
-
Luan vs Sewa and Asta vs Joslin for finals night. As long as Luan wins the final game will be really fucking great in my opinion. At least better then Najera vs Papa.
-
I have a feeling its going to be Sewa vs. Joslin again. If Sewa does those late flips, he will take out Luan pretty easily. And Joslin has every trick under the sun including the late flip shit.
-
It’s finals night.
Wish it could be Joslin vs asta for the grand final and not winner of those 2 vs winner of sewa and Luan

No way! haha

Finally, the guy with the best flat ground has won.

Berra was texting on his phone the entire game... he’s really unbearable. Poor Luan that trophy is terrible compared to the past ones, or any trophy in general for that matter...
-
The games were good at least. Leading up the finals were a bore but aside from Asta matches, the rest was good.

After watching Joslin vs Luan I think we can add reverts to trendwatch 2k19
-
Gotta get paid.
Luan vs Sewa was probably the best game I remember (and will soon forget because its the berries skate game) but it seemed way faster than the other games played. Glad Luan finally won. To bad the course was so tight, he couldn't hit his top flatground speed.

In retrospect, Tom was maybe a tiny bit out f his league with all these other major players. He’s great and stylish, I liked how fast his feet flicked on tricks.
I kept telling my friend that luan was gonna really really want to win because of how he did in slides and grinds.
Luan Vs sewa was great and vs Joslin, so funny Jos thought luan was trying the extra 180 on the heel sex change an then finally made his underflip.
Excellent game. Luan killed it and deserves it based on his proformance imo.
Funny how Yune in the commercial before the first game, was saying how everything is fake and not to believe everything you watch.
-
sewa looks so bad on a board, fake stiff arms down casual with secret safety hands
-
The actual skating was great, the “show” aspects were uniformly horrendous.
Luan deserved it for sure.
-
That’s funny i don’t recall seeing any back 3’s the whole thing..
Why though
I've also noticed I haven't seen a Kickflip back 360 in a while.
-
Sewa opting to wear a shirt that repped an independently owned skate shop makes him cool in my book. Classy move on his part.
Also I’m kind of crushing on that ref girl who was yelling about the flag in that bit before the matches.
-
Luan won it with PJ Ladd tricks. Good reference.

yeah that's dope
-
3 Hours of Garbage.
-
Luan is fucking insanely good at flatground.
Also, i really don't get the Sewa hate. His style doesn't bug me that much.
-
Joslin fought some guys in the parking lot afterwards. I saw 1 person filming it. 5 goons vs joslin and his homie
-
Happy Luan won...he deserved it...dudes flatground is amazing...a few of the calls were kinda weird but didn't seem to throw the game. Personality wise the berrics crew is a weird group of individuals, cringe city. It's so cringy these competitions are basically pointless.
-
Koston and Berra are a perfect match. They deserve each other.
For some odd reason Sewa's board looked weird.
Joslin's ability to improvise a trick on the go is insane.
To me Tom asta has the best style of the bunch, but trickwise he was out of his league.

And switch too
-
Joslin's grip was super distracting, I hate to be that guy, but it looked like shit
-
Wow, both of Luan’s games were instant classics as far as I’m concerned... very entertaining.
Felt bad for poor Tom Asta having an off night and getting smoked in back to back games.

I was disheartened to see that Kelly can't read.
-
Asta felt a bit of.
-
someone photoshop berra some nice skullcandy plugs
-
Tom looked an awful lot like Lutzka during Kelly's intro to the semifinal game

my take away:
-the final match was probably the best game of skate in history that I cared about 100% less since I saw the results posted on insta THREE DAYS AGO.
-berries is getting out of hand milking the hits, spreading 3-4 videos in a 48-72 hour roll-out window is insane
-Sewa really seems like he’s trying to be a standup guy but ultimately he has like 3 finishing moves that he busts out every year and you see them coming before he steps on the board. I don’t blame him cuz the cash purse is probably his meal ticket more than any of his sponsors but damn is it boring. I’d rather watch Daniel Haney cut off some denim jeans.
-Tom Asta really is a modern-day Penny but skateboarding probably won’t acknowledge it for another 10 years. Style is near flawless.
-every crowd reaction shot was the black kid with bleached hair mouthing “that’s what I’m talking about”
-Joslin’s style is getting better, dudes 100% skate rat and really surprised me at the end there.
-Luan killed it, skated twice the speed of everyone else. nollie inward heel on defense somehow looked like he wasn’t gonna land it and looked perfect at the same time. deserved the win, stoked for him
-Borra can’t even stand up on his own decisions
-this is probably the last BATB I’ll ever watch
-

Yeah, pretty crazy scientific debate in the parking lot. Does Joslin look psychotic? Lack of shots or Berras influence?
Last game was pretty good.
-
the final battle was satisfying and that's all that matters.
-
Plug skull candy
-
a bit disappointed by the amount of reverts.
At least, my buddies are no longer allowed to call me out on my switch flip sex change revert
-
Those guys in the parking lot talking shit on Front shuv late flips?
-
Some consistent mofos.

despite being surrounded by a sea of people, it was in that moment that eric, abandoned by his mentor for not plugging skullcandy, truly understood the meaning of loneliness.

Once he realized the skull candy plug wasn’t going to happen, he made a face like he just saw Chris Hansen walking into the kitchen.

I dunno, I feel like skate-related verbal-femdom is actually very adult.
Hoping that The Berrics turns it into a regular feature.
