Title: Slides & Grinds (ledge game of S.K.A.T.E)
Post by: Sk.A.T.A.N on October 18, 2016, 02:44:06 PM
This is a new contest on this popular brazilian youtube channel "sobreskate". It features some of the best brazilian skateboarders right now and some newcomers. I must say I'm quite impressed with it. Lots of gnarly tricks going down with ease...
The rules are simple, like the traditional Game of Skate, but you have two tries to match the trick and 3 tries on the last letter. You need to alternate between a Grind and a Slide each round too. Better than the last couple BATB IMO.

Games that went down for now:

Slides & Grinds - Gabriel Fortunato vs Murilo Rom?o (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DzHKzmFCIek#)  

Slides & Grinds - Wagner Ramos vs Victor S?ssekind (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=APCGehPt4kA#)

Slides & Grinds - Rodrigo Petersen Vs Jo?o Gabriel (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K2LM1WKBqlo#)

Slides & Grinds - Lucas Marques vs Lucas Xaparral (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mPkBTKf7XeY#)

Slides & Grinds - Alex Carolino vs Henrique Crobelatti (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eCqzYJIUNfY#)

Slides & Grinds - Yan Felipe vs Luiz Apela?o (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xs7IwnMUEjo#)

Slides & Grinds - Marcio Roberto vs JP Dantas (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nmpQT4nZsNM#)

Slides & Grinds - Cezar Gordo vs. Gustavo Dias (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eWF-YfkRW68#)

Interesting idea, I watched the first game but forgot to check the rest as they showed up. Sometimes I wonder how do Youtube's facilities work, but I'm completely out of the loop when it comes to vlogging... kids eat that shit up.

Post by: L33Tg33k on October 19, 2016, 10:36:21 AM
These are excellent. Especially that first game. Both those guys were doing fucked up tricks first try and Gabriel Fortunato looks great on the board. That guy that played Rodrigo Petersen is fucked up good too. I was glad to see Petersen get one good trick in there with the cab lipslide. And is that ledge high, or am I just a bitch? Probably both. Fucking Brazilians ripped that shit a new asshole.

We've been calling for a ledge game of skate from the berrics for years now and I'm so glad someone else did it. Berra is an idiot. I really like the alternating slide/grind and two try rule. They're doing it right.

Ledge is no joke too. One of the smaller guys had problems getting lipslides.

So much more fun to watch than another dude bailing a hardflip late 180,

I'm glad you guys liked it. It's a really cool concept and some of those brazilians are too underrated. Lucas Marques is a fucking killer and one of the best newcomers on the BR scene. I'm not a expert on brazilians skating but i got more interested in it since i got some connections with their industry.

Looking forward for the Iqui vs Fagundes match, and the carolino, formiga and Filipe oliveira ones... Lots of different approaches to skating making it really interesting. I would love to see Pedro Biagio in it too since he's an animal at ledge skating!

Those guys are seriously good, the fact that those tricks are first try is incredible. I'm not sure if typical Berrics Pros would do that well on that game. I could see PJ, Asta, and Shane O'neill do good though.

OUS are expensive and the Brazilian real is getting more valuable, so prepare to cough top dollar if you want a pair. I'm more of a clearance rack kind of guy so I've yet to try them. I think Ous is planning to start distributing first in Europe then in the US.

There's been a few strange calls, but you'll always argue with the ref in these types of contests.
In one of them, I can't find it again, a dude only takes one try on trick and they showed two different angles to make it look like he tried it twice.

We always used to call it that. So not just a Brazil thing. Then the name "willy" came around and I thought that was a stupid name. Which it is.

Anyway, Lima/Formiga game had that "I wanna win" kind of vibe from Formiga's side. That's when it becomes a contest more so than a game. Lima landing those weird tricks was cool.

Yeah, totally that! Formiga saw a weakness on him and went to the throat on that.

BR people use lots of other names to tricks and I think it's funny, just another sign how unique is they're skating world. A "kickflip" to them is an 360 flip, for example...

I don't think it would be too off the mark to say that if he built his own table, he would exclaim "This is a Forrr-mIGa table" in a slow voice and then cackle right after.

Anyway. Klaus Bohms has great style.

None of those are in it. The biggest names, from what I can see, are Alex Carolino, Carlos Iqui, Rodrigo Petersen and Klaus Bohms.
I'm stoked though, some of the people I've never heard of have impressed me the most (Carolino aside).

None of those are in it. The biggest names, from what I can see, are Alex Carolino, Carlos Iqui, Rodrigo Petersen and Klaus Bohms.
I'm stoked though, some of the people I've never heard of have impressed me the most (Carolino aside).
i hope they do one of these every year and throw in english subtitles and sponsors that attract big names for a ca$h prize before the berries steals their idea. these have been terrific so far. much better than flatground or miniramp skate...

Not for nothing but Gustavo Diaz kind of sucked in his round too. I can't say I would have faired any better in his position, but he had 3 tries on a nollie front tailslide.

Just caught up on these--SO sick!
Like most of you in this thread, I cannot believe some of the shit going down first try, and then matched first try on defense. So fucked.

The Edgard Lima vs Marcelo Formiga match (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TFXw72NvW30 (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TFXw72NvW30)) bummed me out HARD. It genuinely looked like Formiga did three different tricks the entire time. Sucked/such poor form. That's like playing SKATE and knowing your opponent can't do double flip body varial variations...and doing ten of them in a row until they lost.

Especially lame because Lima seemed insanely good and ripped a frontside flip nosegrind first try!! Really wanted to see more of him, but instead we have to see some clown doing 5-0 to crooks variations to inflate his ego.

The Yan Felipe vs Luiz Apelao match (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xs7IwnMUEjo (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xs7IwnMUEjo)) was really sick too...Apelao had great style and speed. I was really bummed he lost in round 2.

These rule and make BATB look like child's play.

Side question because maybe this is a good thread to ask...
What's the Brazilian equivalent to like, the Sabotage, GX1000, or Static videos?
You know, just raw/underground/core street skating.
I have an affinity for regionalism in videos and would love to see more underground international skating.

I haven't heard of most of these dudes in this game, but a lot of them have incredible style and would like to see them, or other rippers skating street.

yeah doing a flatground ss fs 360 is easier for me than regular... but when it's out of a tailslide, goofy or regular comes as natural...

Though I also know a few people who can regular fs 3 with their eyes closed, but can't ss fs 360 or ss fs ts 270 for their life...

It says on the rules you cant put your feet on the ground, so no bonelesses neither no-complys. It doesnt say nothing about wallies so they are as valid as an ollie. And wallie is a trick, it takes skill to do it. If they were that easy/not a trick, carolino would land them easely.

excess slappies on the last match was a lack of taste. if you were getting MERKED then maybe throw in one but going for the jugular like that at the cost of good taste is wack. and for a new age polar good vibes throw back 90's type cat that was goon. he made carolino look even better ironically.

that other character who kept doing the same front five, lip slide to crook ledge dancing shit...shame on him even when there's money at stake.

easy for me to say but this is an expose of talent beyond winning on some booty maneuvers. that frontside flip five revert was savage and that's what i'm remembering not the winner.

He even "forgot" to take the tag of the t-shirt. Once i saw Stevie in barca and @RapeGod was with him, skating with the price tag of his beanie dangling all over. I thought he was putting too much effort to stand out and also tried to guess his age because you need a very young mind to do shit like this. I used to really like Formiga's skating with the long ass grinds when he was not getting so much shine but now that i get to watch more stuff from him i believe he is kind of "same trick, different day". Maybe he's getting old but the dangling price tag says otherwise.

That Formiga guy does everything the worst way you can possibly do it which is in stark contrast to Iqui.

Not feeling that guy at all.

Thank GOD.

Also, a serious bitch move on his part to not even try the switch back tail. I seriously HATE when people do that in games. I don't speak Portuguese but I bet he was whining like "Bro, I can't even do that trick!!!"
[close]

Yeah it was something like that. He thanked and said it was impossible for him to land it.

I'm really glad he is out. He came out as a kook in this honestly.

Formiga is Anhangaba? king, but I dont feel his vibe. Dude act like a kook most of the time.

asphalt yacht club. take one solid second and think about that name.

asphalt. yacht. club.

He even "forgot" to take the tag of the t-shirt. Once i saw Stevie in barca and @RapeGod was with him, skating with the price tag of his beanie dangling all over. I thought he was putting too much effort to stand out and also tried to guess his age because you need a very young mind to do shit like this. I used to really like Formiga's skating with the long ass grinds when he was not getting so much shine but now that i get to watch more stuff from him i believe he is kind of "same trick, different day". Maybe he's getting old but the dangling price tag says otherwise.

it's photo incentive for the brand. some market research ass company no better than pac sun.

can't wait for that shit to be toasted and the next generation to look back on it like the D3.

Best game for sure.
I like Fortunato skating but he already has a light spot on him with all the nike sb, monster and element sponsors. Lucas is this unknown ripper that really deserves some shine. He got introduced on OUS footwear recently and it's not even full AM on Blaze Supply (I think he's flow), so I hope this bumps him up at least sponsorship wise.

Too right, he has amazing style and seems like a really nice dude. I cannot decide between him and Kaue Cossa, they both seem to have extra terrestrial abilities on a board. Also, after one of your later comments, i am stoked he is the underdog in this contest so double good for him!

Giving a pass on doing a grind of the ledge after the other guy popped out mid ledge is bullshit. Especially on a bs ng and 50 bs 1 out

Should tighten trucks though, looking uncomfortably shaky over there

Good game. Stoked Souza was able to wallie crook so nice. I wonder if he already could do those or he learned those knowing it would probably come up in this match.

Oliveira got a pass for that switch front crook that didn't look very crook so that cancelled out the mid ledge pop out for me.

Hell no. He did multiple mid ledge pop out tricks. Getting a pass on one buggered trick does not equate.

Semi's were ok, took some time but whatever... but the 3rd and 4th place game was too fucking long, dudes were just trying really hard shit, not giving a fuck and failing a lot. I had to pass forward and go straight to the Finals game, aint nobody got fo' that.

Thank fuck for those edits. That 2,5 hour live thing was way too much for me to handle.

Yeah definitely not watching that shit. Waiting for these proper edits to come out over the next day or two.
I wonder what the hell was copyrighted?

Ha, Wilton Souza was definitely going for the back 180 nosegrind when he got the noseslide to fakie instead  :D
Well, it hadn't been done yet, so that counts, haha.
But then man, when they start getting into the flip in/flip out shit... incredible.
I'd say that was the best game.

Legitimately screamed at multiple tricks in the finals. Wow. These dudes are SO fucking consistent.

3rd/4th place felt so boring during the live stream...  I'm amazed at how it turned into one of the best games after the edit.

Holy shit, that final match was so, so good.
This whole thing had such great skating, great vibe, really fun.
Absolutely perfect.

Just one last note. I was seeing the final game interviews and Lucas Marques gave 5000 of the 30000 reais prize to Kaue (they made that deal before the match). Really humble from both and a rare thing to see in this day and age!

Would like to see this game in N.America. People can switch flip nosegrind first try around here

Re-watched the 4th season of this recently on @sobreskate 's youtube page.

What happened with the "streets" version they were starting?

Why hasn't this been re-kindled by street league?

This might be my favorite contest series in skateboarding history, besides KOTR of course.
