I have a feeling this is going to be the last batb and perhaps the end of the berrics. As soon as hypebeast is tired of carrying them.

Hopefully, to be honest, I'm pretty surprised that BATB is gettin that much attention in general and on slap specifically
[close]

I think mainly because BATB had some good shit in the past, there is the hope of some gold skate battle in a sea of bullshit

Yeah even though the berrics are lame now, people still wanna see pros with amazing flatground skills play some games.
Really we all just want the eS game of skate back

I find games of skate stupid, and boring to watch, but damn, that PJ Ladd vs PRod one was something else.

Is it true?  Or did you read it on the slap message board?

Let's update it! Flat tech precision in a park is boring for most.
-ledge or obstacle skate is the obvious one
-hi speed only-tricks dont count unless done over 15 mph
-circus trick only game, any kickflips/360 flips/switch heels etc are not allowed. 
-vert pro only games.  Bucky vs. Rune on flat! 

open to any and all suggestions.

Curb game of skate. Not just slappies. Get some real creative curb stylers.

I guess they are switching up the brackets this week. Good to see some more known and less kooky skaters. I wonder if this lends credence to the theory that the scientology lot poosied out (Giger has uploaded some vid about batb so it seems at least he is still in it).

Not going to lie, I've been watching this BATB12 because of the kooky shitty influencers, it's like a circus watching them fuck up and stuff

After watching wee man episode of 9club, had to chuckle when he said when he hates when people roll up to him and want to play skate. 

Would be dope too see wee man in a BATB

Is there anyone more deserving than Malto of the 'Cannot believe he's still around' award?

His footage is never dissappointing (to me), I'm just caught off guard that he's made through the many cuts at Craig and that silly shoe company.

What “cuts” at Craig are we referring to?
The ones where the creeps get weeded out?
Seems like they’ve still got Kenneth on their roster, so you must be referring to the Yonnie incident, yeah? Maybe the Bubble one w/ the homeless guy?
Malto must’ve been keeping his nose clean through theses quiet last few years. Barring a PR backlash, it seems like Craig keeps people on forever. Looking at Crob, Jeron, Eldy, Brophy; you know… all those “productive” dude’s that are pumping out footy? Pretty much HALF their collective squads, actually.

Even though i love Tom i don't think he will stand a chance against Gustav. Would love to see suciu against gustav. Preferably on a Ledge or curb

He’s probably gonna pull that Legion of Doom shit where he has 27 kids behind him but only 4 or 5 of them actually try to do tricks after he bails a half cab flip and plays it off like he’s not trying

I actually have to say, that BATB where Chris Roberts Legion of Doom was introduced was the exact moment i decided berrics was too god damned corny and i was never clicking the site again. never watched another clip from them after that. i think that was why it took me so long to get into 9 club was cause i had ptsd from that clip

Just ditch the rules for fucks sake.  Have we still hatred for a street grab or no comply ? Gee this isn't 1993.

Grabs, no complies and other "creative" tricks(Street plants, etc) can get very esoteric. This rule seeks to level the playing field by having the skaters use a standardized bag of tricks.

I would think that, even since the inception of the Berrics, these types of tricks have been less stigmatized/ "standardized" or expected to be in a standard skater's bag of tricks.

That being said, my flamingo's still don't get any cheers at the park...

Not really related, but didn't they kinda do this before with Pros versus Joes? And didn't the "Joe" who won against all the other "Joes" not appear in the actual game?

I remember a kid doing a bunch of dork tricks and winning, and people were bummed, but I can't find any record of it.

cody cepeda
[close]

Maybe I'm making this up but I don't think that's right because Cody was in the actual games. I think the Joes all played a game, and some dude beat them all, including Cody.
[close]

Cepeda did win the Pros Vs. Joes series. That was BATB 7.

I remember this as well. Berra had a video talking about how the kid beat everyone by doing the worst tricks and basically reset everything afterwards
