BATB 7

[Ronald Wilson Reagan]

No pop on pressure! No rules, no game!

you only have to pop if your opponent does

[soccer mom]

Nyjah always surprises me how good he is at flat. Good game

[Dark Knight]

What is that front foot impossible that Mikemo does?  Shit is crazy.

[A Not At All Naughty Chemist]

Great game, the reaction to the pressure flip was priceless




On an unrelated note, i still wanna see Rodney vs. Deawon

Dunno. It's definitely not a front foot impossible though.

It's a front foot impossible but turning inward.
So basically a regular impossible but turning it with the front foot.

good game! mike mo just skates at flat ground nowadays. Maikey Taylor is a faggy.

[Andrefosho]

Sucky referee work by Alec in Eric Koston game.

[nino brown]

Damn that was crazy! And I actually thought Nyjah was okay to listen to after the game... He has a point in that the better games are those were you run out of your comfortable tricks.

Also I think it's funny that everytime Nyjah is forced to do any dorky/funny/out-of-fashion tricks, it seems like it's the first time his body has to move in these ways.

[shit_for_brains]

Mike Mo is so fucking good. Best switch bs flips.

PJ's hair is amazing and he lost to a kid with bad style. Don't see why people are complaining, his hair looked great. Going for the throat is about the only way you're going to beat the PJ's and Morgan Smiths in this competition and if you got flown to LA to get your face out there wouldn't you want it to last as long as you could before having to go back to normal life? None of those tricks are beyond PJ, he's done double flip variations in BATB before and his hair looked perticulary flattering. This kid may never be back again and PJ will always be a champion. Did anyone else notice how good PJ's hair looked?

This gentleman right here seems to be one of the lesser ones that got the whole deal of this game.

also it's pretty funny that this joe gets a lot of hate for his hardflip late fs 180 while ivan drago is cheered upon for pretty much similar tricks.

Sewa may do a lot of circus tricks but at least he doesn't look like barf on a board doing any of them. Can't even say that about the joe's basics.

[close]

Sewa definitely looks like barf on a skateboard, don't kid yourself.

[close]

He doesn't have the best style and isn't one of my favorite skaters by any means but who can make those tricks look better? PJ? Prod? No..
Sewa is solid. Don't front because you don't like it. Who has a better 540 shuv other than maybe Shane O'Neill?

Sewas style is sick and funny and he stomps everything proper as fuck unlike that joe. The Ivan Drago comparison makes it enjoyable to me at least.

a bit late, but nevermind...

i personally don't like sewas style, it's plain stiff and somewhat robotic. but that's how the ivan drago comparison wirks, the fashion of a true russian sportsman.
dedicated, focus on the win, tall, stiff, fucking precise and stomping the shit out of everyone crossing his path. or in sewas case, a 7.5 inches wide piece of wood.

me still not gusta, but it makes every game of skate he appears in a rocky fight, so it's fine and enjoyable.

The little no pop shuv's mikemo does to turn his board around after a trick are more interesting to watch than Nyjah

I'd call it a different trick, impossibles wrap, 3 shuvs don't

That shit barely wraps. It's like shitty back foot version ones  people claim are impossibles that are half assed and also look like 360 shuv it's.

i have to agree. if you watch it frame by frame it really is just a 360 pop shuv with an early/tweaked front foot catch. his front foot does nothing until the rotation is almost complete.

[Ronald Wilson Reagan]

shut up you morons

[Iceman]

sorry to shatter your dreams buddy

[Exposure]

Absolutely not just a 360 shuv lol. I guess if 360 shuvs are supposed to totally wrap around your foot then yeah its a 3 shuv.

[Iceman]

someone i used to skate with way back in the day used to do these proper (backside, not the common frontside one). like, pop the tail and start wrapping with the front foot before any varial took place. mikemo's looks like a pop shuv 1/2 front foot impossible at best. but more like a 360 pop shuv with an exaggerated catch. in the 5 years or so that mo has been claiming to do these, i haven't seen one that actually looked like it spun around because of his front foot. it sucks because if anyone could do it proper, it would be him. anyway, it's much too late. goodnight slap.

[i used to skate]

eh judging from the stills i agree with dude above, but when you watch the video, it clearly wraps around the front foot, or at least looks convincingly like it wraps (in the 5 on flat video? at the berrics i couldn't tell what he was doing)

[Ronald Wilson Reagan]

your insane sequence really just outlines how it clearly is an impossible. Do you seriously think if it stops touching your foot for a second its not an impossible anymore?
I revert to my previous statement

I like how right after that still, it shows the board clearly wrapping around his foot. I don't get how that millisecond that the board doesn't touch his foot is the definite proof it's not one.

[foureyedjim]

it's a hybrid
problem solved

[Probably A Robot]

To me it's just a bit of a shady move pulling that one out in skate. Similar to when Chris Cole did a "one footed backside 360" in that other game.

[Manolo]

It's a fake yo flip.

hahahahahaha thinking of someone pulling this as an actual trick made me laugh.

360 Casper shuv. Bruh.

[friendly dave]

I think we should call a moyo.
