Nassim is so sick, but well deserved W by Tallys Jr (whom I've never heard of before). Can't wait for the rest of this season. I think this might be my favourite SKATE variation.



But for the love of god, lose the sex change trick name.

Post by: somethingmustbreaknow on October 20, 2022, 10:52:33 PM
i think doing a manual trick, esp. one that involves fs (or bs) 180 in, down the ramp and having the other skater in opposite stance doing the same trick up the ramp instead is a little unfair or not really comparable as the latter is much much harder. so it sucks that this becker guy did that trick when playing eniz as an opposite stance guy. but whatever.

Post by: Jim and Dan on October 21, 2022, 06:46:52 AM
Not thrilled on the amount of yucky Cariuma riders, should have thrown Gustavo Ribeiro in there with his visor on as well to make things even more cringe. Fuck it, they should have just like hired clowns to cartwheel around the contestants and held an impromptu circus in the plaza.

Blake Johnson wasn't really on my radar until I started watching these King Of MACBA contests. I'm embarrassed to admit that initially I considered his style a bit too clunky/oafish or something wildly incorrect like that- but goddamn this dude has definitely won me over. He's got such a deep bag of tricks executed with a no-matter-what commitment level and his style is something incredibly unique: aggressive brute power accompanied by a focused precision and finesse rare for someone of his build.

I'm excited to see Youness Amrani skate. His part in 5incher has that amazing Hand Clapping Song by The Meters.
(starts around 13:15)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z_V9XnRFzd4&t=1826s

Also, much like Alan, I get stoked whenever I see a sick tech skater on a Zero board.

Really thought Carlos was going to smoke him.  Leandre reminds me of this rollerblading kid from middle school who would just find the tallest shit to jump off.  Would do some upside down, whatever flip down 3 stairs but looked disgusting.

Post by: RoaryMcTwang on November 07, 2022, 03:47:52 PM
Ha, that was a great game. Kind of harsh to make Carlos jump like that when he clearly didn't want to.

Leandre looks like he can barely walk but somehow he does those tricks.

Cariuma taking over as predicted because the real skaters don't care.

Getting 3 tries on that was suspect, but the rules are vague enough to be a robbery:

"1 attempt each until the word MACBA is spelled out"
"defense has 2 tries"

Also, what do they do if the two skaters don't have the same stance?
Do they make any directional obstacles like the big out-ledge off limits?

Awesome game but it's a little frustrating to see so many tricks done on that picnic table. Someone pointed it out earlier in the thread but there's a whole plaza at your disposal and more than half the tricks were done on that bench.

Either way this season has had some great games. I know these games are put together by MACBA Life but it would be cool to see the series branch out into other plazas all over the world. A game of skate like this at South Banks would be next level.

Thats basically the only obstacle thats approachable one way so yeah don't be a douche


But yo Jorge deserved that loss after a blatant 360 shuv instead of an impossible. If there's one trend within the carriumba team it seems they'll slime their way through tricks

It's a little different now. That ledge where Kenny Reed was doing his opening sequence is still there, but there is no notch but stairs now (people was jumping this stairs in earlier king/queen od macba battles). And ledge with similar notch it's near the entrance to the museum, but it's lower drop there, and often people are sitting there.

Why do people hate Cariuma so much but give Nike and Moster Energy a pass? They all fucking suck. Personally, think Cariuma is the least offensive of the 3. Is there something I'm missing?

Brains.

No matter how I feel about either of the contestants, a closely matched game is always way more existing. Not feeling that last trick at all. Also, flatground tricks should be banned.

Also, no one thinks Monster is cool. Nike, on the other hand, had successfully found its place in skateboarding (I still haven't skated a pair).

Who gives Monster a pass?  Swear I havent heard of anybody… but if you point me in their direction then we can fight them together

What’s the deal with the previous king of Macba contests? I was just assuming it was people who made it their home away from home like Tiago or Blake or Nassim. Now thinking of it, Idk who the actual BCN locals are in the contest.

Anyway, so like Carolina sponsored the contest and wedged their riders into the bracket? No idea who the others are but there’s no way skategoAt or mamapants kicked it there everyday to become down with everyone. Keep that shit in Venice and give the spots to some real plaza skaters.

Not the battle I'm waiting for but sick non the less.

I want more Carlos Iqui. Also Im a Jorge fan. That's the battle right there.

Carlos has the untouchable style and his abilities seem unlimited.

I remember when I first saw Gio V on slides and grinds. I was screaming at my tv when he stuck that last trick but just barely slid out for second place.

I back all his tricks. Fakie is superior to all other stances.

I can't stop thinking about Carlos rolling up to the block. It's all about that wind-up before the trick. So much style. The insane tricks are like the icing on the cake with that guy.

I mean there's people who can do those trick obviously but they aren't looking like Carlos doing it. Dude is a master

Blake has this BA big man burliness in his skating. A bit disappointed Gio sticks to the table that much but I guess its a way to win. We'll see what Iqui has to say about it in the finals.

yeah i don’t like that or the repeat trick variations. blake has grown on me a lot through the last couple of years, especially in this years contest of all things surprisingly. his style used to bug me, i think living in barcelona has really been helpful though. his fakie ollie over the ledge reminded me of sheffey over the table. i wish he was still in. i hope iqui wins the whole thing though, dude deserves so much more.

This KOM feels a bit stale compared to the previous one's. Maybe it's because KOM is more popular now, but a lot of the skater's seem to be treating it more like the competition it is vs playing a game of skate with your friend. After the initial games, I felt like I knew all the trick's each person was going to cycle through.

1 & 2 are just a regional thing, it's way more common to say to fakie in middle and northern Europe. I've actually never heard 180 out or revert instead of to fakie outside of Spain. Maybe some French and Italian pals can chime in, I don't know how they say it there.

The table should be banned. You've got one of the most iconic plazas to work with.

fakie hard fakie nose grind. In competition. I love it.
Everyone should get that trick in their bag if possible for 2023. I can't get enough of that and nollie fs flip fakie nose grind.
Fakie is the most G shit almost always. Heel flips and crooks obviously switch/nollie for maximum gangster.

idk if it's finding a weakness as much as those are just his go-to tricks? he did pretty much the same tricks in every game, seems like that's just what he has on lock

Table was such a stupid decision. Monster kicker was stupid too but at least nobody wanted to skate that shit for more than the one required trick. Just stick a monster sticker on one of the ledges and call it the monster ledge. Would be blasphemy too but games would be better

Post by: shouldn't on December 30, 2022, 02:25:08 AM
they should make the “essential object” something that is already there that maybe not everyone can skate & isn’t made for the contest. like the outledge or the 3 block or at least over the ledge. making them have to skate something once that isn’t apart of the actual spot seems stupid to me. i also don’t enjoy when people do the same tricks in every game & don’t take risks. i was hoping the finals could’ve been iqui vs giovani. next year should have all of the winners from the past (gustav, tiago, giovani) as well as some of the other techest ledge skaters of this time (who don’t ride for cariuma).

i think jaccopo & dilo would be some good additions next year, who else would you guys pick?
