What is PSL Skateboarding

P-Rod being so flawlessly media trained from the age of 13 has always aided my assumption that he has skeletons in his closet.

My above comment is alleged and based solely on assumptions, other than hanging with James Cole, and being a prolific grifter I have not seen or heard of any other dirt/allegations.

Lithium had zero strategy and team spirit for the last game. Kinda depressing to watch.

Plus, who the fuck came up with the name Lithium? A total a nomen ist omen type of situation.

I don't know. Was kind of excited about the two first weekends, now the whole thing seems to get a bit stale and repetitive. The format definitely needs some work for the next season to keep it interesting.

Zach Saraceno as captain, what did you expect?

It looks like they just updated all the logos, but their old logo kinda explained it. Lithium's atomic mass is 6,94 so they had it as "6,9420". I bet you Mike Mo came up with this name.

[PapaSquat]

Chris Joslin is a team captain and he wasn’t there this past weekend either.

I wonder how many more teams they are going to add in the future. And how are captains chosen?

Let's be honest, Joslin was holding his team back.

counterpoint: PSL needs a dark horse. Zach could be one of the better skaters there but he's been hurt and obviously thinks the whole thing is beneath him. Midler is just always a wild card and not a hucker so it's funny to see him out there. Robert Neal has been a villain character in skateboarding for years and can't land a damn thing, his ollie attempt was hilarious. Dashawn has like 5-6 stair tricks really well including his lazer flip which will often get a letter plus he's usually good for a wild card rail trick or two which makes him fun to watch but he's not a good defender outside that. Braden doesn't really seem to show up much but when he does he's kind of similar to Dashawn, 5-6 tricks really well and some wild card rail tricks but not a great defender. and then Maurio is their star, super consistent on both offense and defense and can land tons of stuff, he's really been carrying the team. but it seems like the rest of the team doesn't really like him that much and doesn't think he's cool lol

altogether a pretty hilarious group of skaters for something like this and I think it makes it fun to have a team out there that's basically blowing it and not getting along and just flinging stuff down the stairs at random. breaks up the monotony of the other teams just sending out their insanely consistent young guys like Kristion Jordon vs. Christian Dufrene vs. Art Cordova vs. Julian Christianson over and over

[rawbertson.]

I cant believe how consistent those young guys are on a freaking 8 stair flip trick with that deep of bag too
there must be more guys in japan, brazil, europe, who are good enough to take these fuckers down. that is actually what i want to see. i want to see some champions league type shit. I feel like theres a lot of young lesser known guys ready to get buck. they only have those other guys in there like foy and neal to draw in viewers i think. some people are so die hard foy they will watch any content he puts out (like me  ).

I really liked the mad shit Foy was talking in the "interview" piece for the lead-up to the match with the Soldiers, I do wish his team would have backed it up!

Any SLS event barely registers on here but we're ten pages deep into this dogshit format made for betting. Is it just the novelty or do some of you really feel like this is that much better than SLS?

[propaganda]

I be wanting to watch sls but im not paying rumble

At first I was like "phew...dudes jumping down the eight stair for hours", but now I'm kinda liking it. It can get interesting from time to time and like said, it's crazy how consistent these dudes are. I'd like to see more some little less known skaters.

I'm not saying it's better than SLS (which is the same people every season...), but I like to watch them (sometimes they're just in the background) both.

I think part of it is the fact that is free and live right now.  I have not been bothered to try and figure out how to watch the SLS live.  Second, and this is the main part for me, the format is "real time".  I like the "pressure" of a team having to match the set trick, and that I know who is wining/losing in real time.  I also like that every now and then a team actually thinks things through, example, I think it was 2 weeks in a row, P-Rods team started on Offence, and they sent Manny out to knock out the wildcards, because that is what he is good at, then subbed him out.

Last, it is just easy to watch, I can have it on while doing other things, look up and know what is going on.

Are there things that can be fixed? Absolutely, can you say that about just about any sport in its first season? Absolutely.

I am a firm believer it needs a Hubba!

How about a hubba on each side, a rail in the middle. A trick over the rail counts as a new trick. Every team member gets 1 wildcard per quarter.

[Hyliannightmare]

Its too boring its the berries but down stairs. I thought I'd love it but xgames, Olympic qualification and street league are all more fun

I’ve read a lot of takes from people supporting PSL who say they don’t even watch it while they watch it. It’s just background stuff, which would lead me to believe it’s not entertaining enough to keep your attention undivided. I don’t love that.

[j....soy.....]

It’s 2026…you watch 15 minutes and then complain about it…

It’s not live streamed on YouTube but they upload it on there a week or so after the event. I get that’s kinda late for today’s standards. I rarely ever go back to watch any of it.

That is not what I was trying to say, LOL

What I meant was sometimes during the course of the 3 hour run I have to get up and do things like make a PB&J or make an Old Fashioned.  During those times I can look up and still know pretty much what the situation looks like. I am not waiting on the judge to submit a score card

[Llewellyn Moss]

Clint busting a nut on big makes then yelling into the mic like bro, back up lmao

When the camera finds Bam multiple times, and the rando lurking behind one of the teams, Sean/Clint acknowledge.

Camera finds Chris Cole, talking to Joslin... 100% crickets. Not a damn word.

[manuduncan]

wanted to hate watch it but gotta admit julian agliardi's clutch rail trick on defense during the last round hyped me up ngl

mike mo and sean malto definitely stepped up the enthusiasm today too they were really into it and did a good job making me pay attention again with their yelling while i had it on in the background

[Plungerman]

that was fun. watched it w my mom and she was able to enjoy it the whole time. was pulling for the soldiers. art is so damn good. wanna see him succeed. happy shs took it in the finals vs wolverines after roman started pulling out the body v and late shuvs. kinda whatever about prod winning in his own park but his post game interview got me happy for him and the team. youtuber podcast bullshit aside seems like a positive coach mentor figure for his guys

kristion jordan is so fucked. would be hyped to see him on something more relevant than plan b. if he was on something cool he'd have much more respect. unbelievable talent

i'll be patiently waiting for the next season. interested to
see how this evolves over time

[Onebadwheel]

I'm just gonna say it that was pretty awkward how the finals came down to "sharks versus jets" if you catch my drift.

…Or, if you will allow it: the Daggers vs. the Ramp Locals.

[cancelfliplateflip]

watched the finals vod after a bing lunch and I slept for 3 hours. Best nap I've taken in years. Congrats to prod or whatever

[spooky electric]

so what now? are there more seasons within a year or is that it 'til next year?

even though i've said numerous times that it's a bit boring - it has been kind of nice to have a consistent skate thing to chill out to on a sunday afternoon.

[Dj Paul]

really enjoyed that, I think that robotic style from wolverines was the reason why I rooted for SHS. No diversity in Joslin team, also.

the whole event was nice but they need a hubba in. James Cole tried to ruin the whole line, but thanks god he was off backstage on the finals.
