I'd say there's an 85% chance of Figgy Getting SOTY. The other 15% goes to someone from Girl/Choco.You may argue for Daveed because he had a web part come out for thrasher. But Austyn Gilette is having one. Forrest had one. Lots of people had web parts come out through Thrasher this year. So what seperates Daveed from them? Yes the level of skating was pretty insane, but one web part?...
I'm surprised that figgy crooked that rail, figured the one arto back lipped woulda got crooked first.
I dont know who I want to punch in the face the most, Neckface or Shane?And yes, Artos backlip is better

[close]why would it be any other way? is thrasher gonna give someone skater of the year for having the best part in the transworld video? or for having a killer skateboard mag interview? it may be called skater of the year but its always preceded by the name THRASHER for a reason.

I disagree, recent SOTY winners seemed to disappear from the face of the earth once the celebration is over.� Aside from a couple things here and there, you really didn't see much from Grant, Leo, Silas, MJ, etc after they won.
Agree that this whole SOTY thing is given way too much airtime. The list of guys who never got it, but should have compared to those who have of late pretty much renders the whole thing irrelevant. For a start Jamie Thomas and Chad Muska never won it. Those guys completely dominated the sport at the top of their game. And yet Thrasher awarded guys who no doubt 'deserved it' in their bias perspective. It's no more serious than the other awards they give out for being a crybaby or smoking meth.
I'm surprised as to how much talk 'SOTY' award generates.
