Giovanni Vianna is the only Brazilian that can't SSBSTS.

Somebody should tell him that switch ollies are fakie nollies and he'd do them straight away.

Luan's skating is intimidating. The other guy is obviously very very good and yet stood not the slightest bit of a chance.

Cmon dude, JP is a dick head, but in the streets he smokes Luan easily. All Dantas video parts are better than luans.

yeah, great consistency does not equal great parts ... only long lines on perfect ledges. but it is nice to see luan charge the ledge and pull off perfect tricks

Nah, compare Luans antihorario part, and Dantas Evolução da especie, wich came with 1-2 years difference.Luan just did enough and "gave up" aka dont give a fuck anymore, earlier

Luans best part is from Flip Extremelly Sorry, and that is not better than JP pro part and many others. You are a fan boy. Be honest with yourself. Almost every Luan Part sucks. Nollie noseslides vs switch fs tails slides variations.

Unbiased opinion here - not a big Luan fan and haven't even heard of other dude before. Just watched a few of JP's parts. Dude is amazingly good, but I'd say it's pretty clear that Luan is better. Both in this game (where JP got skunked in no time) and as evidenced by video parts. Luan obviously has more control, that's undeniable. He does his tricks going super fast and very confidently. Both skaters are incredibly sick, but as a comparison it's not even a question when you look at the board control.

i try really hard to like luan. but his stiff style and not bending his knees when landing takes all the momentum and energy out of what he is doing.
i have a hard time to enjoy that.
its like watching divers doing amazing tricks from the diveboard but instead of water they splash on concrete.
its heavy on the eye.

Luan gets allot of hate and yeah he hasn’t had the banging street part. But fuck he does every trick at full speed and i think his stuff style works at speed.

He is.

I'd have to think he has a high chance of taking luan out.

There was definitely some shit in there I've never seen luan do

For real. That MACBA game should do two tries, like this.  Tricks are too hard first-go.

I kept thinking to myself  - I really like Yuri's approach, but maybe he is not very consistent with flipping into tricks, which will give him problems later on in the competition... then he hardflips into a 5-0  :o

Starting the game off with a trick on the high ledge is a power move.

Only discovered this while in the office, gonna catch up with all the episodes later at home. Like that they alternate slides / grinds, 2 tries per trick, 3 tries on the last letter and the sound of the ledge. King of MACBA has more variety but the rules (using the Monster kicker, only 1 try per trick) need to be updated.
