I think we can all admit now that Koston was the Nyjah of his generation.

this fucking sucks. i’m 22 and know who all these people are thanks to the bullshit algorithm you get on the instagram explore page just because you ‘like’ or follow skateboarders, but this is just sad. i don’t know want to know if burberry erry can beat johnny giger. i don’t want to know if john hill can beat aaron kyro. hell, i don’t care to hear what eric koston or steve berra have to say about anything. this shit fucking sucks and they are the ones that are gonna be responsible for what everyone thinks the olympics are gonna do to skating. i remember being 11/12 when i really cared about the berrics. it was cool seeing sean malto and prod play skate, it was cool knowing malto couldn’t heelflip because i couldn’t either and still can’t. i don’t care to see what someone can do in some yeezy crocs that the dude in cariumas can’t do. i don’t even know where i’m going with this. i’m at work pissed off that i can’t skate right now yet the shit i’m seeing on the internet is some fuck face from instagram and tiktok about to play skate at the berrics because for whatever reason someone in idaho gives a shit. fuck the berrics and fuck me for typing this

Jeron Wilson, Kelly and Chris from 9 Club are confirmed then? They mentioned on last episode.

I've seen a lot of YT comments saying how John Hill will go far, but I don't know... I've never seen him do a hardflip back 180 or whatever that trick everyone does is.
[close]

He's pretty average in both flatground and everything else - especially if you consider "he's a pro". Maybe he can beat one or two influencers, but he will get skunked eventually.

Let's see if he'll pay the Berrics 10,000 dollars.
Said he's not doing it, told them no apparently but they still announced him.

It’s like that Logan Paul vs Mayweather fight, its such a cheesy idea but you can’t help but want to watch out of pure curiosity on just what the hell is going to happen, except this is actually free for everyone to watch. I bet you a lot of people talking shit on it are still going to secretly watch it regardless.

Slides & Grinds >>> Berries.

Truth, aside from the occasional BS tricks like slappy noseslides, it was way more entertaining. The games are longer, so maybe less appealing to Berries' audidence.

How funny is that. Some of the influencers realized they don't need berrics as much as berrics needs them. Good for them.

2nd vote would be for PJ. sometimes it is a fine command of the english language to say nothing and he extended that to skating. PJ's plan B part is the emperor's new clothes.

this fucking sucks. i’m 22 and know who all these people are thanks to the bullshit algorithm you get on the instagram explore page just because you ‘like’ or follow skateboarders, but this is just sad. i don’t know want to know if burberry erry can beat johnny giger. i don’t want to know if john hill can beat aaron kyro. hell, i don’t care to hear what eric koston or steve berra have to say about anything. this shit fucking sucks and they are the ones that are gonna be responsible for what everyone thinks the olympics are gonna do to skating. i remember being 11/12 when i really cared about the berrics. it was cool seeing sean malto and prod play skate, it was cool knowing malto couldn’t heelflip because i couldn’t either and still can’t. i don’t care to see what someone can do in some yeezy crocs that the dude in cariumas can’t do. i don’t even know where i’m going with this. i’m at work pissed off that i can’t skate right now yet the shit i’m seeing on the internet is some fuck face from instagram and tiktok about to play skate at the berrics because for whatever reason someone in idaho gives a shit. fuck the berrics and fuck me for typing this

22 and already this jaded? You’ll fit right in here.

But I do agree that it was cool seeing established pros not being able to do certain basics, made me feel less bad about but for maybe like 7+ years the circus tricks have kind of increased and seeing them just makes me not care about the contest.

Also crazy to know they put out that video without confirming some of these influencers. John Hill is kind of a goober but he seems like a nice enough guy, was kind of looking forward to seeing what he could do.

my friends always say they don’t understand how jaded i am at this age. i think it’s funny, but it does suck at times. but yeah the john hill thing is fucked up. i don’t understand how that’s gonna play out. he’s a super nice guy i will say. he came to my local park growing up when he was still on birdhouse. 12 year old me was stoked. but i’m curious to see what the berrics backup plan is.

So I’m good friends with a lot of the people announced in the Influencer bracket, and similar to what John Hill said above I know personally four people who were asked to participate that politely declined, yet ended up being announced into the brackets anyway.  I actually really do enjoy the concept of this year’s BatB, but the way they’re going about the execution is not looking too good.

I feel like this with Youtube, all these shitty Youtubers keep appearing in my home screen even if I never watch them, just because I watch skateboarding videos. Some even have crazy amount of views, like more than Nike and Thrasher, and it's just a video of random whatever dudes skating, sometimes not even skating but random everyday shit, and I'm like who the fuck watches this?

Just remember Steve Borra is an actor, and he can play ANY role. A few of those influencers gonna be having that sick Borra style.
Is it true?  Or did you read it on the slap message board?

They seemed kinda bitter in the whole video they did for the influencers bracket. Maybe this is some kind of Vendetta move for loosing all this clicks to the influencers

Berrics trying to be relevant. Although I don't know many of these influencer guys, I am still curious what they come up with. Will Borra skate himself this time? Will they change the rules a bit? Why is Mike V there again? I have so many questions.

Maybe he's going through some mental hardship, so fair enough if he is - but not in the headspace for what? A game of skate?

Not sure why I've felt compelled to make this comment, but I have.

So John hill doesn’t have ten k and instead of admitting it he just isn’t going to show up. I mean how can the berries survive after a decline from such a skateboard icon like John HILL!  Everyone remembers John for being the first guy to cross lock a 50-50 down a round double kink and for doing the first blunt flip out on vert. This is funny as shit. Not in the right headspace for a game of skate, fucking liar.

I don’t know, seems like all these YouTube kooks could put on some pretty interesting/ wild games of skate. And Jamie Griffin is rad. His street skating is the only one of the influencers I’ve actually seen and enjoyed. Ireland represent!

Probably because he is not in a good place mentally and does not want to get destroy by slap for mobing a nollie flip or whatever. It would be dope if most of the influencers did not participated, like « nop we are doing well bye ». Tho I liked the chris chann games he did a few years back. He has a really solid flat ground game

this is the funniest part to me. This feels like a really weird "gotcha" attempt by Berra but it's really more of a self-own. I just checked and that Andy Shrock guy alone has like 4 times the number of subs that The Berrics has.
