Louie looks better than all other options.   Hope Louie gets it this year.   The money grubbing out of a few others is gross.  Tfunk part isn't shit compared to the Louie part.

I know he wouldn’t win, but would have been nice to see TJ Rogers on the list.

You would think dropping four parts in one year and beating cancer would warrant some kind of mention huh?

Thrasher hate Canada
Has there been a Canadian SOTY?

The TJ Rogers omission is glaring and legitimately shocking. There’s no other words.

wild to see Nick Matthews on there without even having an official board sponsor (is he fully on Nike? if not, that's even more wild)

EDIT: to clarify, he definitely deserves it, more just commenting that it's insane that he clearly had one of the best years in skateboarding and still hasn't been recognized via sponsorships

We need a SOTY nominated and determined by the people.

I'm a huge fan of Ben Kadow (deserves to be on the list every year), but how did he make it on this list but Sean Greene didn't?

Right Here For Pablo was insanity. Is Carlyle the only GX guy on here?

I'm not a TJ Rogers fan but it's kinda crazy he's not on here.

Awesome that they put Nick Matthews on the list. Casper too.

Any parts from any of the other non household name skaters that I should check out?

Louie is in the top 3 for skater of the decade and has so much more appeal than Nyjah who has not skated this year.

Give it to LL, TFunk will have his time. Tyshawn has another run in him with the backing of his new board company.

Also noteworthy, the Emerica video drops tomorrow so Winkowski's part must not be that great.

idk kinda cool for TJ if he was added by popular demand. he's not gonna win the trophy but having the public root for you that hard has gotta feel like a win

SOTY died when Phelps passed away.
It was always his and only his decision cause he gave no fucks.

Also Jake Johnson, if you consider him a contender for his part in Right Here for Pablo.

Honest mistake on Thrasher's end if they forgot to include him. eS didn't release any of his 3 parts with the mag.

That being said, that's cool they added him by demand. Putting out 3 parts while fighting cancer is pretty hellride.

There is also zero indication that this factors into the decision

Jeff Carlyle got my vote before I read this but now especially so. I hope he gets it and then refuses it and then I can buy him a burrito from wherever he chooses.

Give it to Nyjah. He literally sacrificed his street league season trying to get clips. He finally paid his dues to the streets and showed real sacrifice
