That bs nollie heel

[shark tits]

does everyone still hate fs bigspin flips and nollie double heels or is it cool now? sewa-cide it's a sewa-cide.

[Noble Experiment]

Stoked Sewa won; it's gonna be the first finals that finally has all brand new people in it; no P-Rods or Mo's or Zigram23's; should be a interesting finals night.
Sewa's got pretty much every trick, but he seems to miss the simple basic tricks a lot here and there (switch heels, switch flips, etc).
His main strategy for winning seems to be that he just pulls out those five or six circusy tricks in a row that no one really has (360 double flips, 540 shuvits, FS bigflip, etc). If Sewa goes first on finals night and just goes straight to these tricks, I can't see him losing.

He either has Asta or Cody for the finals. Asta he has beat; Cody has every circus trick and more.

ya but this fucker never wins the ro shambo.

[Kolostrum]

Would have been nice to see that game go back and forth a little more. Kinda bummed Sewa got weird right from the get go, but Mo had the right idea making him look stupid on those basic tricks (he didn't even roll on that backside flip).

at this point you shouldnt even go into this "tournament" if you dont have 540 shuvs, double tres, double nollie heels, and the hard flop.

and mo was right about the thing with the "single" tricks, if you have your doubles and 540s it really can fuck up your "normal" game. it is crazy, but mo knows!

[foureyedjim]

oh for the love of god geoff...when will you realize there is a difference between a friendly game of skate to warm up and a competitive game where the whole point is to put out tricks you don't think your opponent will land?

[coneklr]

Mo's bs flips were super proper!  Only thing that really stood out to me.

what do you mean? i thought it was obvious that i have conceded that the whole thing is about winning. Skateboarding has evolved and i am right on board. i dont understand why no complies arent allowed though. if you can do a trick and pivot it 180 degrees, you should be able to do a no comply.

some people do that weird thing where their front foot leaves the ground super late.  I'm guessing it'll be harder to judge rather than just flip tricks.  Pivots are subjective too, so I honestly don't know.

That bs nollie heel

that was proper, but it doesn't get better than this one:

I never would have pegged Sewa for the type that would actually bother to learn proper impossibles.

I'm more glad Reda stopped doing the pre and post interviews by popular demand!

[hufs calve muscles]

I thought Sewa was just having an off day and was gonna get smoked....

Holy fuck he but the hurt on Mo. Double barrel.

So who's left again!??? Asta, Luan..

[TheDraught]

Nothing too circusy in there.

All of those tricks Mo could have suspected, cause Sewa has done them in all the other games.

He should have had the hardflip late fs 180 on lock.

[AdrianLopez]

Yeah, those tricks were no circus tricks at all in my book.

Mo knew Sewa has those five or six tricks on lock. Everybody knew. Maybe a fat check from DC makes you lazy after all because I highly doubt Mo lacks the ability to master those double flips or hardflip variations.

[Abyss1]

Man I was so wrong about a Joe ending up in finals...but after seeing Cody the last 2 weekends in a row, he has got me believing that he could take it.

Liking the line up for finals night for sure

[stephop]

All these terrible pro's who don't practice double flips.

I would love to see him win, but once you pull out your f/s and s/w f/s flips it is gonna be a hard one for Cody. Everybody has his weekness, even Cody. I am still shocked how easy he has all those doubles variations ... good look to Cody.

[FrenchFuck]

Doubleflips kill another pro

[carbonite]

backing the kid. didn't he used to be on the world industries (RIP) flowgram or some shit?
