Personally i think Guy should of won for his tech wizardry as i doubt we'll see a switch 360 flip to nose grind or Smith grind to laser out anytime soon. But all 3 of the big candidates brought something interesting and its very hard to compare across their styles, particularly gnarly guys hitting big rails like Figgy and David to tech wizards like MJ and Guy. Its like debating Jamie Thomas's Welcome to Hell part to Ronnie Creager in Trilogy, both amazing parts that show off two different sides of street skateboarding. Thrasher needs a hall of fame or something to honor all these greats, just looking at the skater of the year lists it covers a lot of the greats. I'm sure if Slap was around in the 90's many people would of disputed certain choices even though all of those guys have legendary parts.

This brotha be talking sense!

But the switch tre nosegrind is what drew the line to me, I could see a few skaters doing that death defying 50 (Gravette, Figgy, Baca, Leo, etc.) but nobodyyyy could replicate that switch tre nose, and it is only one trick but it speaks volumes on how much work Guy puts in and had put in that year alone

And Reagan, that Alzheimer's must still got you tripping because what trick in that entire David part was new??? 50s and boardslides been around a hot minute and half those spots alot of random ass gnar Cali kids would/could probably walk away with a trick from, just saying, the claims you're building you're argument got a shit ton of holes in them, but you're entitled to your opinion if you liked the part more by all means

here's one and I've seen another done by him in some instagram type video at biebels park i think.
Not even trying to argue that Guys part wasn't amazing since I love it, but your arguments against Davids skating are just regular.

"Sounds sad."

Fixed. If you hate this place so much, focus. Its already been clearly established you won't be missed. If you think this place is so sad, why do you return every day?

Yes. I up my negative rep.  I would think someone that probably spent the greater half of a decade in college writing pointless papers on civil rights be would more literately creative or at least imaginative.  Then again, all you ever do is call people stupid on the internet, which is more of a joke on you than anyone else.  I hardly ever come here, and when I do, it's in hopes that one day I'll be cool like you, duh.

Yo Beer Belly, you just gonna go there, and not follow me?  Some Pal you are.

I don't care enough to scroll down to read whatever Adio said again.  Something about ratings that I'm sure he smiled real big as he hit the post button for as his boss yelled at him to turn on the other frier because it's half off burger night or whatever.
