Is it just me or do some of these games (including this one) seem very awkward at times?  I can't really point out exactly what it is.  It also seems like the crowd is starting to get bored.  There used to be so much more cheering and clapping.

Haha i was literally about to post this. Like the silence gets even more awkward when nobody reacts to any of the tricks. Its like they probably should have music playing in the background or something.

I wonder if PJ ever practices. He gives off the impression that he doesn't but it would be hard to believe you could beat people like Ishod who skate non-stop.

If he actually doesn't ever practice, that's pretty damn impressive to make it to the finals in every batb except the last one.

PJ skates a lot of flatground.

Sewa seems so awkward all the time. I feel like the Awkward Penguin meme could identify with him.

With how much they edit these things it would drive the viewer crazy. Songs changing every trick and tracks jumping around in time.

Well played by Sewa.

P-Rod should have prepared for all those tricks.

Its weird because if you watch batb 6 or 7 i notice the crowd seemed so much more into it than this year.  Its almost like the crowd doesn't know anything about skateboarding, so they don't know how to react when someone lands something lol.

I haven't really been watching BATB this go around so can someone tell me how the fuck Chris Joslin's bs 180 pivot got a pass? Is the judging super lax now or something?

Yeah it was an accident. The berrics is saying "watch will fyock and Chris Joslin tomorrow!!!"

It's not an accident, they just upload the pre game and actual game at the same time so in the morning they can just update the website to the latest game. It's just that someone realized you can remove the pre game part in the url to view it before they had planned. I dunno if it's been like this in past BATBs but it seems to have being going on since the beginning for this one.
Any dude that hates on roller hockey hasn't played, and likely haven't played a sport in their entire life.

It was a half cab heelflip, Mr. The Berrics. Pull your heads out of your asses.

I find the trick text in the bottom right of the screen really off putting.

Its kinda of annoying seeing what trick a person is doing before they even pop it
