Different times. They had no previous knowledge of the gap (uphill landing) and a lot of pros (Muska, Dyrdek, Chris Cole) rode small deck sizes (7.75-8) making landing harder.
I did see it brother. You're right. It's pretty solid. I just think it's remarkable because B. Turner's switch hard was a last minute kind of thing you can tell he just winged at the last millisecond. You're right though about that nollie big heel flip. That shit would have been gnarly to see.
It really sucks fo everyone who wasn't able to sk8 that, now the only thing we have to remember it by is video's and that lil tech deck version of it. R.I.P. Carlsbad.
The double flip was the hardest and scariest trick in this video. Except for maybe that feeble down the rail. I ain't a double flip guy, and I feel like they're looked at almost as badly as varial flips. But I sure as shit hope he won something for it. He made it look good.
the reason im so sad is because what i wanted to do when I graduated was to go to all the famous skate spots in the world, carlsbad was one of the top ones, and now its gone.
I remember that day I was there with my girlfriend at the time I was on the left side on the other side of the Giants does it that was my high school at the time
I love those human airbags in the front row.
I am that human airbag!!! 10 years later
@@christianfoley2781 You definitely have a great story to tell at least.
@@christianfoley2781that’s fuckin awesome lol
that was the cleanest doubleflip I have ever seen, holy shit.
That catch
I don't even like double flips, but jesus christ that was beautiful!
Yep exactly the same, I think it's the catch that makes it looks perfect
Who did that double flip
Anonymous GamingX11 how do you not like double flips? Shit I kill double flips and they look sick down gaps
Chababoum look so good cause he boned that bitch out karate kick style that's why looked so good
Lmao what’s wrong with double clips wtf
Crazy the level of skateboarding that during a contest they can pull of tricks that would've been Enders only5 years ago

Truly the most epic beautiful send off for an iconic spot that i never got to hit.
R.I.P Carlsbad gap
what happened to it?
@@extinctbc9988 they tore it down & built a parking lot
That was the nicest double kickflip . Never seen one that good
Nothing will ever beat Brandon Turner's Switch Hard.
Cody mcentire nollie back big heel is my favorite
Is it on youtube? The spot is an amazing accomplishment, the trick is over the top.

Impossible and the 360 flip.
This is some of the best skating I've seen on youtube in a while
Not a single pair of cuffed pants
Jorge ozara thats because they can't gay comply down it
Look closer, several guys have cuffed pants. Starting at 1:14 two guys in a row have them
Ben Dover the very first person seen in the video is literally wearing cuffed pants
fuckkkkkkkkkk that double flip was crazy
I give these people mad credit. I could never skate around these many people. Haha

R.I.P. Carlsbad.

Imagine Vinny Bahn in that contest
That double flip was crazy but tbh the backside flip was pretty crazy too. Not sure how he got away with not slipping out. Super clean
The SW bigflip is still so insane without the proper roll away. I remember seeing a sequence of it in a magazine and tripping out
edited out the end where Jaws gaps it from the roof
I kick flipped that gap back in 09. That inclined slope when you land was gnarly.
gotta love the roar of the crowd after a buttery trick :D
Thats the best idea I've heard all week
R.I.P Carlsbad, your legacy will live on!
that front pop shuv at :53 was just too perfect...
I remember that day, lol that’s all the guy was ever doing. He was like only doing pop shows it was interesting.
So tight that everyone came together for this contest!!!
sick Nick Merlino, love that dude
I dont even know how no one got hurt from a flying or rolling board. xD And when the guys fell into people..
Really enjoyed watching this. :)
R.i.P. gap you are a missed legend
RIP Calrsbad gap
that double flip 😮💨
such an iconic spot
That bigflip, shit counted... for sure
Yeeeeew!
0:24 lil wil!!!
I destroyed this gap in THPS
This gap is in THPS? Woah
Brandon Turner did a switch hard flip over that in the Shorties video I still think that was the best trick
That or Tom Penny and his switch Frontside Flip
Legendary
I thought all these guys were just locals of Carlsbad but then I saw the McClung brothers and other ams and pros.
owned this spot on Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 2 ^^
the reason im so sad is because what i wanted to do when I graduated was to go to all the famous skate spots in the world, carlsbad was one of the top ones, and now its gone.
Motivation for the gaps! greatings fron Chile!

+Josh Buckwell Whoever decided to do that should go get a hobby.
i agree
+TheBluFalcon Gaming they have a hobby, making parking lots
wow, moose's frontside flip was so textbook
Bust a crazy combo on this gap and we'll send it to the Skate Ranch for you.
I remember that day I was there with my girlfriend at the time I was on the left side on the other side of the Giants does it that was my high school at the time
damn! nick merlino killed it
Who else got an ad of a old guy playing Minecraft talking about him getting kick out of his house by his parents?? Ps he had 2fps
It's a switch flip.
You can also hear the announcer say it too.
@11andreskater idk what the song is but im pretty damn sure its the dirtbombs.
for all the shit that merlino gets...hes pretty damn good.
R.I.P
