11:02 Shoutout to the jogger, for both getting out of the way and giving Evan afterwards props for the amazing shit pulled.
Holy shit, I may never need another vid! Bless you Evan and high five for running this with just the sweet sound of skating and no music! SOTY!
I agree. It was a breath of fresh air to not have music. I don't mind the music, but still.....
you might wanna see the hour long interview we just uploaded with him tho 😎
One of the best skateboarders of all time!!!
And he loves to trip 😂
The difference between Evan and Nyjah is that no matter how realistic skateboarding videogames get, you will never be able to skate like Evan.
And while kids are too busy skating within the confines of a video games physics
uhm you actually can in skater xl
@Karen Sanders Yeah, I suppose they do give you 2 different colored shoes.
FraKctured that’s just a setting to get used to using the different analogs for both feet, you can turn it off
@@lildallas9425 So is choosing Evan Smith on the character menu. Just because you can skate AS him doesn't mean you can skate LIKE him. I'll refer you to the Hunter S. Thompson quote posted elsewhere in these comments.
Hard to leave a single comment that encapsulates what it's like to watch him skate. Gnarliest style ever in my eyes
№ ℥ milton martinez is gnarlier imo but evan is like a gnarly richie jackson, creativity wise. that's why he's my favorite skater.
I love it when the public reactions are positive, especially the guy in the green shirt right after 13:39. His little clap is like "pretty good--that was pretty good".
his spot and trick selection is always on the money
I could watch Evan and Tiago lemos all day. Goats.
Evan squared up real quick with dat dog 😂
Lmaoooo
THAT WAS ONE OF THE FUNNIEST THINGS I HAVE EVER SEEN
All bark no bite
Real dog shit right there haha
He probs knew it wanted to play
Just looked this cat up because the band All Them Witches mentioned him in one of their videos. I gotta say. He skates as incredible as they rock! ATW!!! Best band of right now by far!!!
Give this man SOTY
Hammer after hammer for 14 minutes
Creativity that only a man who's dabbled with intense levels of psychedelics can imagine
Unique spots instead of rail after rail
Style for days
And likeable to boot
He's everything skateboarding should be
#FACTS
He stayed in a tent at the Tampa pro/am
seriously
Tyshawn is sick. But Evan shoulda won it in 2018.
Yup
Step 1: Watch 13:24
Step 2: Watch it again.
Step 3: Go to your eye doctor, get a new prescription, and watch it again.
Step 4: Accept that you will never believe what your eyes are seeing.
the shoes make it trippier
Haha yea
not going to lie, i watched the 540 ollie that came afterwards more times than i watched the front flip late shuv, but they're both baller tricks. he rules.
Bryan arnett could do that too u know
I like it when they include some bails in their montages. Gives a more real feel to it knowing that even the pros fail sometimes.
Evan always killing it
sick
Thanks
This guy has all the aspects to be the soty. Style, Overall Heshness, and A unique bag of tricks. Like come on let's give evan the credit he deserves 👏
just give him the damn soty
Exactly
what is soty?
@@ШамильПушкен skater of the year award
@@codyowings9895 pretty sure joslin isn't a finalist this year
Tyshawn if you know you know.
Evan Smith, unstoppable, powerfull, creative, one of the most underrated dudes in the business
I swear this man is actual Jesus on a skateboard, gets my soty vote for sure.
His skateboarding died for our sins......he's the lord and savior of skateboarding.
I could keep going but you get the point.
If u take enough mushrooms u start to look at skate like Jesus.
He kinda looks like Jesus too
Why even dislike that? Evan skates so well. Moving skateboarding forward
Wtf? This dude just keeps getting better and better!
Best part I’ve seen in 35 years of skating. He rides w the passion, grit, and commitment of Cardiel, but has tech ability like Cole and creativity like Simon . Special dude.
such an inspiration skate on bro
literally the best part ever
No comply handflip board was so dam epic!!!
how are you gonna call THAT a handflip he literally gently flicked it with his fingers thats a finger flip
Buggle Magnum baby girl I do finger flips and that was yes with the fingers but he didn’t grab and flick so it was a hand flip like when you slap someone it’s with the hands 💁🏻♀️
@@Mogely Lets call it a Slap flip. Or an Evan flip.
even and pedro delfino pushed the no comply game it on another level
eerr evan
This rough cut is so sick, Evan is a freak of nature.
Man, I'm about Tyshawn but Evan got straight up robbed of SOTY. Dirty.
business is business, doesnt matter how street or rebel our sport is marketed, reality is the other guy is in a big market and is more brandable ... there is no reasonable comparison in talent between the two.. this guy is just unstopable .. i think he knows this and that he is the real SOTY
@@mariaviaja exactly. Evan Smith is the peoples champion. Humble, and wild. Style and flow. Not robotic.
@@jgrullon32 tell that to Shane O Neil ?
Best skater right now on this earth!
Hahaha dog is barking at Evan and he gets off his board and starts chasing the dog. I love it hahaha.
Man bites dog
Nice profile picture. Carl Sagan was the man.
right?! hahah
Does anyone embody the spirit of Thrasher more than Evan does?
Half of this wasn’t even used and they’re incredible clips
watching evan skate is poetry in motion. Def the funnest skater to watch in my opinion.
Evan smith is the best
I love this dudes skating so much. Everything is just popped so fucking precisely but looks out of control at the same time. Gets me hyped to go outside and just ride my board
I would never put superglue that close to my eye jeeez
Might have been liquid band-aid
Erich Quinones they have that now? I know when I busted my chin they super glued the cut and then it healed and I was alright and I still got the scar to show off
Syxx G0d I honestly didn’t know you could superglue a cut
This is just unbelievable> Truly art, and insanity. Progression has never looked so good.
He's definitely winning soty
pivot cup hell ya he better
Sorry man but Joslin is winning SOTY
@@Pantouflable I disagree, My man Evan is gonna bring it home
pivot cup I hope so but I’m predicting a tyshawn win. Back to back FL soty would be amazing for me
A lot of people calling different people for SOTY so I honestly have no idea who is going to take it. I voted for Milton.
Evan squared up real quick with dat dog --- always killing it
8:43
I’ve heard stories about how impossibly hard this spot is to skate. Those banks are practically vertical.
And he’s varial heeling to fakie on it? That Shits bananas
He's summat else alright
they look steep, but not vertical, maybe 45+ and was a hard flip
Dude that hard flip was crazy
@@user-sw1wq8lh2w they are easily 60+
Never knew Evan had such a dope flip trick game. Switch big flips, switch 360 heels & the list goes on
i love his full speed charge on everything, all terrain, all the time. soty 2018 for sure.
Just in time for soty
butter milk 2 YEARS IN A ROW!
he better win
Just in time to lose
Actually they tried giving it to him he wouldn't take it so they say. I say supreme and the Carlyle group paid thrasher for soty
Dyl Bre supreme paid for soty? No way. Tyshawn deserved it
They really just glued this guys head back together
he’s got a really great style and attitude, love watching him skate.
Evan is the best thing to happen to skateboarding in a long time
Even for soty he's been killing it forever he deserves it
No shame in his game!! Everything is huge. Love this guys style.
Soty for sure !
I don’t think people realize just how athletically gifted Evan actually is.
Please thrasher ! do the obvious and make this man SOTY. no one comes close .
I still watch this part constantly
It's time for this dude to get it
MakoXL it's BEEN time, but sadly he got robbed AGAIN.
He's one of the few people that literally has it all
6:40 those three lines were insane
Evan can do anything...absolutely insane...
11:14 sounds like his special bar was full and he did a special trick lol
people should get world recognized awards for there 100% effort into videos like these. absolutely amazing
SKATER OF THE YEAR
Robbed
Best skateboarder and best dude. A savage with a golden heart !
I landed my first kickflip right after watching this
Some of the best footage I've seen lately. Keep it up if you're reading this.
I love Zion I love Jamie Foy but no one goes as hard as Evan Smith
Zion and Milton go a lot harder but Evan got the flowy steez
@@skankwave5245 his pop is just unreal
Darrin R joslin goes way harder than all the above
Skankwave yeah, milton is fucked in the head (and it's so amazing) but i don't agree about zion going harder. not in the least. evan skates up and down some of the steepest shit and is the wallride king. he also does not bail elegantly. dude takes some HARD slams.
How do you leave joslin out of that statement lol .. wtf
Wherever his local is it’s like skating heaven
He's like a MerMan surfing the land
the crust of a tan man imbibed by the sand soaking up the thirst of the land?
Evan going in!!! kickflip to wall ride was nuts
BARCELONA DESTROYED
best way to describe Evan is that he is elegantly gnarly
Dead ass thought he came out with a new 14 minute part to win soty
yea was a bit disappointed, would have rather seen a totally new 5-6 min part than this. Shouldn't complain though
This isn't exactly a new part. Its raw files of a part we've already seen
@@greens294 yea but most of these clips are leftovers, so they couldve also taken them and put out a new 4 minutes part. That wouldve sealed the deal for SOTY..
King Garoo shit my bad. Misread your comment (wasn’t 100% at the time). But yea, that woulda no doubt sealed the deal for him!
B-sides
Love the sound of raw skateboarding. Favorite genre of music to listen to for skate vids
SOTY 2K18
evan has so much talent and creativity. you literally can't tell what he's going to do at each spot.
That was 14 minutes of things that I didn't know were possible
YOU MAD MAN?! Overlooking all those weird spots, crazy tricks, life threatening wall rides and pure sound of the wheels and board slapping, without music...but the speed at which all the tricks are performed? astonishing.
4:50 for the “time looped ninja get back up” move! ;)
SOTY!
Love how he never gets angry or frustrated about falling or not landing it, and when he does he's so loving. Seems like a really nice guy instead of a cocky ass-hole.
SOTY in our heart
This might be my favorite skate video of all time. Change my mind.
I wouldn’t bother trying. Dude is my all time favorite skater. Years of good ass parts and he hasn’t really lost it at all. Just gotten better. To me, he’s up there with Ishod constantly progressing and just getting better with every video part.
I'm sorry Joslin, Evan is gonna win SOTY
Evan still hasn't put out what Joslin did this year! The fact that Joslin put out a 5 minute part a month after his 12 minute epic in Etnies Album really certified him. Not to mention his Real Street section, and the fact that he's killing it in BATB
its gonna be tyshawn...
@@greens294 not to mention he fucking tre flipped Davis gap and nollie flipped an insanely huge 9 flat 9 up in Canada. Joslin is on another level.
Evan smith is probably the coolest person on earth
How is Evan Smith not your favorite skater ??
MetaLuda28 when did evan smith get so fucking popular? jeez. i can't have anything to myself. well, he's just that fucking awesome. every time he graces a board i know i'm about to have my mind blown. but seriously, was it KOTR?
this was part of the year for me, no question
“Do you even skate?”
Evan: *Hold my acid*
He just gets better and better, knarley, tech, original and has style for days
my soty
Evan " the Machine " Smith. Super-Sick !
evan smith should be skater of all years
SOTY for the win.
so much grace for a tall guy. Amazing
Its gonna be a tough call for SOTY this year.
For real though...and it seems like it's getting harder and harder every year lately. I've been skating for almost 22 years now and it wasn't until the past few years where pros all started really gunning for that SOTY. In years past, everyone just skated and whoever won, won. It was like whatever but nowadays it seems that SOTY has become like winning an Oscar Award in the skate world-everyone wants it now. And you can tell the difference if you've been skating long enough. You can tell more and more pros are going out their way to stand out and get it. Especailly during the last half of every year. They start throwing out a shit ton of banger footy after summer months, or from the summer until the end of the year.
Yeah, these days the progression is quicker. In the 80s you had to know someoene who knew the tricks. The pros get good very quickly in the modern era, and they have great skaters around them. It will get more and more difficult to pick SOTY in the coming years 👍
TheRickyp83 well then in that case Evan smith is the Leonardo DiCaprio of soty nominees
agreed; really hard to argue with four or more dudes
Nature Born Skater. Nothin can stop evan smith period.
If he don’t get SOTY I’m suing
evan smith is something different....much respect, SOTY by far.
SOTY Lets get it❤️
Huge fan of this part. The dudes vibe jumpes over and make me grab my board everytime i watch the video ✌
favorite skater of all time for me, his style and ambition is insane
SOOOOOTY
skating is out of this world and all i wanna do is smoke with the guy he seems chill
Peace + KOTR= SOTY
What a great style.. and the tricks this man can do unreal
best creative hardcore skateboarder!
Hair flowing
