What is PSL Skateboarding

[germy rogirs]

Do we even know what the prize was?

Was definitely some cool moments in the final. I liked seeing Prod come in and match the Switch BS flip and Switch FS flip when they needed to hold the lead down. Obviously Julian's late shuv front board was nuts. Was cool to see the bunt get a quick segment in there as well. Overall that final went as good as Mike mo could have hoped. It had a bit of everything and almost 20k viewers.

Why did Joslin elect to go on defense first?  That decision probably cost his team the win.

Nigel nollie heel back lip was nice

[DNTRODDEN]

Still impressed by the 3 young kids.

[Tuff Lover]

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

If only he didn't need those headphones. What a difference they seemed to make

I thought the same thing. that los santos blow out game was so impressive, easily could of happened to pauls team.

kristion  jordan is such an insane talent. reminds me of of a young trapasso w a lil bit of antwuan in there.

I think roman hager won me over the most tho from all of the young kids. something about his skating is very enjoyable, cant quite put my finger on what it is tho, but he’s impressed me more than i expected.

Like someone said before…it seems like all of the established pros are there to just bring viewers in, but the lesser known guys are doing the most work and killing it the hardest.

was super funny when the bunt fired shots at ishod for wearing sandals, i remember thinking the same thing when the camera was on him  like “why isnt he ready!?”. i think he played maybe one game, and never seemed too siked to be there. him and majuers are so fucking good and consistent, no idea why they were on the bench.

that being said, big respect to jamie foy. you could tell he actually wanted to win, and was trying. the week before last, his team was down 15 points and he was still shit talking like they had a chance. i love that.

I can get down with all of this for sure, Roman w/the Late shuv rail, was almost as impressive at JA's defense of it, both times actually, even if he missed the 1st attempt.

The youngsters Roman, Kristion, and Agliardi, were amazing.

Then Dufrene, Julian Christianson, and some of the lesser known skaters really showed up and I hope helped there careers

Is there somewhere we can see the breakdown of points and defense? It is probably obvious who the best players are, by quite a lot I would think.

Roman, Kristion, Art, Christian, both Julians have to be up there for combination of offense + defense overall
the OG guys / captains seemed mostly just good for wild cards for the most part. I never got to see Joslins matches but I saw there was one he was struggling on, and i mean this guy just won skater of the year and he is straight up admitting the other guys are actually better than him at this. I think he was hurt too - im sure he would have skated instead of mcclung.

i gotta go back and watch ginwoo matches surely he must have done pretty well

P Rod and McClung both very strong on the main stair offense not just wildcard guys like manny, foy, ribeiro, nyjah
Mickey and Miles doing pretty well overall i would not be mad at all having those guys on my team

i can call out a lot of guys i have seen blow it quite a bit... colden, cookie, evon martinez, ishod, dilo, could see them getting cut next year. still not sure how they couldnt find a guy better than sinner. rather would have seen antuwan do 1 foot variations.

Cant look at work, it is blocked, but I am pretty sure the PSL site has all the stats

I honestly believe if ginwoo never got hurt, los santos would of taken the cake. it almost wasnt fair having him lol. at one point i seriously thought he purposely got benched becasue he was un-defendable and would make psl boring to watch lol.

but in all seriousness i didnt think los santos would crumble without him. Silvas, suciu, and felipe, decenzo all skated really well until roman and krition wiped the floor with the remaining los santos members.

The final was great. Insane consistency from especially the younger dudes.

Dufrene and Christianson were amazing throughout the season. Plus I ain't gonna lie, I have a soft spot for Mickey Papa.

Just can't get over how much of an annoying dumbass Malto sounds like. He had the whole season to learn how to correctly pronounce "Agliardi", but no.

Gonna watch the next season for sure.

Rad, they do have it all on there.

Top 10 by points:

1. Julian
2. Kristion
3. Roman
4. Art
5. Foy
6. Christian
7. Ginwoo
8. Nigel
9. Dashawn
10. Maurio

I forgot Ginwoo got hurt. He only had 23 attempts on offense compared to Julians 75... he would have been INSANE

The top 6 + Nigel would be a pretty strong team USA, Foy and Nigel pretty much just there to do wild cards. I would love to see Vince Palmer and Versace Plug do this contest. I would even like to see Chima Ferguson, Antuwan, and Reynolds do it - maybe a "legends" division at the baker park on the smaller set

Mo gonna lose his crib over this?

Just now got caught up on the finals. I enjoyed it and also enjoyed seeing the Bunt boys on the desk, I didn't expect that

Yeah, the Bunt guys were good. Felt right, not forced. Firing shots

[Love Parked]

The final match was good, the best match so far. As much as I can't stand him, it was nice to see Prod land his tricks at 41.

Did they ever say why Joslin didn't skate at all?

[kookdusoleil]

Do we even know what the prize was?

From the sparse information I’ve read, I believe the winners get Mike Mo’s house.

[alien porkchop]

the recent posts here are giving me some real fomo, but i am going to face the fear and not watch anyways.

there was an interview i skimmmed before  the finals, i think he said he wasn't feeling the best and he also realized those guys are actually just better at this than he is.

Did anyone see if any other wild card got defended during the season other than the Agliardi vs. Hager one? im pretty sure every single other one i saw got missed

During the whole season? Yeah it happened a few times, nothing as crazy as that Agilardi defense though.

Roman had a few switch front 5-0s blocked I think, and he said he was not throwing that down anymore, then he pulled the late Shuv.

Roman also blocked a few in week 2 and 3 or 3 and 4 that were like his first attempts at that trick.

[rawbertson.]

thats good then that wild cards are getting blocked sometimes
i feel like people are going to start training other peoples wild card type tricks specifically too like 360 flip to front board or whatever

I had pretty much the exact opposite reaction. Kristion is very talented but he has that little kid style. Comparing him to Trapasso and Twuan is hilarious. I’m thinking Pine with a little more pop and flavor. And Roman Hager is a good skater but just reminds me of a smug hometown hero. Aura skateboards is so lame, it’s like the cool kid version of Revive. Big props to Dufrene and Julian Christainson. Hopefully PSL helps get these dudes hooked up proper. Personally would’ve liked to see Julian C get season MVP but Julian A deserved the finals MVP with that clutch performance.

[cancelfliplateflip]

were there any ollie norths done this season?

[Dj Paul]

Crazy see dudes here comparing K. Jordan  with Trapasso. To me Kriston has very robotic style and kid mostly skate at skateparks. Seems that contest kid with his dad carring him to skateparks to be the new Nyjah.

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

I think Jamie Foy did a fakie one to get a point on Nyjah.

Prod seems like such a lame-o.
