I think they need to pick judges who aren't blind next time. Gui and Moto both totally robbed.
totally agreed
Yup it pissed me off
Came to the comments to read this. Gui's run was better than Wilkins'. Judgment based sports will unfortunately always have this..
100% true they were robbed
It's rigged to sell products. The judges have no choice.
Imagine going back in time and telling Tony Hawk if he does a 9 in his run then a kickflip 540 2 hits later he would place 7th 💀
Super robed
Eddie and Moto’s runs were way more technical, balanced and steezy, in my opinion. Tbh I’m glad the judges aren’t rewarding tight spins that happen mostly below the coping, otherwise skating will go the path of roller blading and figure skating-where the best spinner wins. Now if the kid can build a line out beyond that like Shawn White, well, then he deserves to win.
@@KevinsDisobedience Way more technical lol. You couldn't even win a contest in the 80's without SPINNING a McTwist fool
Tony would do a 1080 off an 11 set….he doesn’t NEED vert 😂😂😂
Seems the fact his hit after was just an indy grab really hurt his score
Moto's run was underscored, but just wow - vert progression overall has really gone nuts over the past 10 years.
I don't even think the judges knew what to even do with those runs. Sick.
Congrats to damestoy, but Moto should have had gold!! Man I watched and rewatch that run was super insane Nobody was doing what Moto did. Bet he was let down by his first score as I was.
It was low. But didn’t have the intensity, speed, or grinds that Eddie’s had.
absolutely.
🎯
That 1st run by Moto was incredible, literally jaw dropping.
Moto Shibata got robbed. His run was incredible.
His hosoi 540s are so insane. Absolutely shld have gotten 1st
absolutely insane tricks he did, unbelivable, he got robbed asf, should have won and second Gui
Insane. It’s political, they screwed Tas pappas so tony hawk could steal the 900. Never forget
@@Tenncup76 dog, there’s two sides to every story, and this has been addressed. Tony himself acknowledges that he was likely not the first to do the trick. Just the first in competition. And I know there’s question about whether or not the xgames officials were gatekeeping tas from competing, but look into what he was going thru during the time. He broke his back and his face, and was barely on the rebound at the time of that contest. Nothing was stolen from anyone. It’s like saying if I do the biggest kickflip that I stole the trick from Rodney.
I usually tell people off for disagreeing with final tallies, but man this ruling just broke my heart
Can someone who understands vert explain why moto only got a 84.6? His first run looked insane to me
Yes, that run seemed a bit underscored. He should at least have gotten the bronze, maybe the silver.
He has been doing the same tricks for years, though. Maybe that have something do do with it.
But Wilkins does the same run over and over again too, and was a bit overscored ...
Great to see Tom Schaar getting a full run in. Vert is always fun to watch.
All I saw was the 540 kickflip indy and the 5 no grab... but I feel the judges got too excited too early... Moto deserved a better score...
right
Same feels
Moto will stand a great chance to win next one
Gui's run was criminally underscored.
Absolut!!!
I don't understand why he didn't win?
@@bencoad1803 At least top 3
@@jellis7042 1: moto
2: Gui
3: IDK but Definitely not eddie
Leo's full pull was robbery and I've never seen the kid sk8 before
Sketchy judging on this one. It killed the vibe big time. You can see it on the Skaters faces the whole jam session.
Exactly!
Moto,Edi and Gui on the podium
Shibata’s run was absolutely insane he got scored like a Vegas boxing match lol
I’m quite shocked at the rulings today. Gui had an IMPRESSIVE run. And I’m definitely not on his bandwagon, I’m still a bit upset about his showboating last year, but the kid put down an impeccable run at the end there, and it deserved far above a 80.33. That’s just terrible ruling on the judges part. He should have cracked the top 3.
I agree. I thought that was weird. It was a pretty sweet run for sure.
I'm pretty sure everyone there was a bit stunned as well... I mean they gave us a fifth run, and then took it away moments later. It was a weird competition.
I’ll be honest. I had to rewind it twice because I dazed out watching it. Somehow-and this is crazy to say-but it’s just not impressive anymore. He does flip his board some, but the steeze and intensity and technical tricks of the others are just more impressive.
I honestly think the showboating was made a bigger deal than it is. He's a kid who is the only person in the world who can land a 1080 on a vert ramp. Of course, he's going to get cocky. He got humbled by the judges, he learned a lesson, and now we're seeing him evolve some of his tricks more. Time to move on.
Agreed. The judging was way off
Moto got absolutely robbed.
i ran all the way down stairs to my car to bang my skateboard on the ground after motos first round, one of the best ive ever seen
Motos first run was a 92.33
Definitely
BLIND 1 ft FS CAB to CRAIL Varial 360 making him turn FS cab 1 footed while grabbing CRAIL and spinning the board for the finished trick board spinning 540. I am a master of vert on XL and i specifically watch this and its just a glitch in the matrix to be honest- at least from my side of the game of life. 37 years of watching vert and not once have I ever said this trick could win contests as an ender if all you did was normal grab back n fortch bs to fs. and he did it 5th trick
I understand that technical skills are also highly valued, however, given that Gui is out here doing 900s in his runs cleanly but only scoring 80s is weird. It's a very specific skill that rarely anyone else can do at all, let alone in a run, and that should count for something significant. Moto's run as well, while comprised of moves he's done before, was still incredibly impressive and very clean. That first run by Moto was absolutely everything; this was questionable judging at best, not sure what happened here.
I feel the exact same way
It’s obvious that the judges don’t like what Gui’s doing, and don’t like him to win.
Was it just me, or was the judging way wrong in this. I felt many athletes were robbed here. You can tell, and you can see in their faces. They know. Something is off here
That Leonardo kid has it right. That should be the standard height of airs
cant believe moto didnt make the podium with the runs he put down
I like Gary but the man has no business announcing a vert contest (as he will tell you). For once I would like to watch an x games with decent announcers and fair judging.
He’s done it the last few years. Pretty mush since they’ve ditched true big air and gone low budget. These things don’t get many views these days.
Yeah surely there are some old vert heads that can commentate and actually call the tricks accurately. He's just not the right guy for the job
Bring back Sal!
Amelia Bródka was fantastic in her commentary for Park, so I nominate her for full-time commentary lol
Shibata's run was almost as exciting as the legendary Bob run from years ago. How was that not in the mid-90s?
These judges like most in skate comps are always off the mark..
Dude these judges need to be replaced! Gui lands a 900 and a fakie 720 among other bangers and gets what 7th? 8th? Absolutely ridiculous, Shibata and Gui should've gotten medals here and I doubt many would be able to argue against that.
Some seriously terrible judging going on here. Please refrain from judging future vert comps, whoever you are.
Amazing skating though, love it.
gui khury getting robbed out there
All his spins look the same, and not much variety with lip tricks. Shibata should have gotten the silver or bronze though.
yeah.. back to back 9. didnt make it to top 6.
Im brazilian and for me Shibata was robbed. His run was so difficult, gsus!
Not at all. Quite a boring skater needs a lot more power. A couple of years.
Shibata has been even more robbed out I think
The favoritism is beyond ridiculous not only in this discipline but in moto x too. I’ve seen so many people get robbed in this x games edition. Shibata deserved at least 2nd.
There's got to be some Vert Veterans available for commentary.
Look at that baby flying in the air!
Gui and moto deserved medals 100%....but hey im not a judge buuuuut thats my opinion and im sticking to it
This is crazy?! How?
Gui Khury 🥇
Leonardo Vinicius 🥈
Moto Shibata 🥉
Whats so hard about that?
The podium should have been Moto, Ghui, and then Eddie
So true, I'm really wondering why the judges gave such a poor score to Moto, his run is simply amazing!
Moto's run was better than Eddies, both ripped but Moto had harder and more original tricks.
who shat in the judges pants like what were they on bc they underscored so many runs
Gary Rodgers as a vert commentator must have been last choice because he doesn't know any of the trick names 😂
Straight up I want somebody on commentary who at least knows what frontside and backside disasters are.
Yeah Gary has no business being a vert commentator. I also came to say thos
agree... he seemed clueless on the allyoop mctwist and most other vert specific tricks
I know it’s cool to say 5 but after a while I just wanted to hear him say 540 one time. Also didn’t name one grab. ONE.
Gary, that there was an alley oop mctwist. Moto's gonna keep doing it, so try to remember...
Moto was robbed 😢
Moto Sh. has clearly been robbed.
guy khuri definitely got robbed, his run was amazing. a 900, a 720, barely any setup airs, and he's 7th? that's a joke
Someone tell me how that was a 90.0 run compared to everyone else's run?
Gary is funny only with a script. Without it he just keep saying: huuu, haaaa, oooo, uiiiiii. Onodera finish his run without a single trick named. For exemple
But i love you on Sakatline. With your script of corse.
1*Gui 2*moto 3*Tom
Moto literally on xgames mode
Please keep Gary on street commentary. He clearly doesnt know what he's talking about when it comes to vert.
The fact that this is like his 4th time covering vert, the dude could have at least learn more of the vert trick names over that time. Lack of professionalism
Nah bro, it's called a "woahhhhh"
@@robertzanetti6351 Woo! Throwin' down a 5. Wow! Back tail. Woah! Fakie 5. Yeah! Kickflip grab. My goodness. No grab 5. Oooh!
that was some horrendous judging. Moto got absolutely robbed. judges on the pipe again
We need commentators who know vert tricks. All Gary can call out is a nose grind and a backside air 🤦🏾♂️ c’mon X Games
Motos run ripped
moto got robbed. so sick of the judges in these contests making terrible decisions
I love the sportmanship in skating. No other sport has this in the same manner
Gui and Moto should have placed. Moto doing stuff knobdy else can do and I get the 900 is old buuuuut who else can do it back to back to back in their runs.
Dude from Japan won, come on, haven't seen a run that incredibly in a xgames since Bob's.
no question on the Gold, but Gui's run should be at least a 85
At very least.
Yeah that run had at least 3 SUPER nasty tricks
I don’t understand how Gui didn’t podium, what’s happening here
ageists..
Building a fire. Make him the underdog. Even when he’s breaking new ground already.
Boring. Spin to win.
Yes, as most were saying in the commnents, the judging was very suspect.
bruh how is having 900 and fakie 720 in a run gets you 7th place?? BRUHHHHH
Moto Shibata! wow this guys got style.
Gui definitely did the best run and should have won this. Absolute robbery. 😢
Nah, all he did was spin
Whatever that trick is Moto did @ 7:02... Absolutely insane, imo worth at least silver if not gold for that run
I love to see young promises that don't let vert skateboarding die
Khury got robbed
Moto won that one.
27:11 love Mitchie yelling "NO!" when he knows he's bailed lol
No more BIG AIR, so Tom is back to VERT
Ain’t no way… Moto 4th
This ain’t adding up… 😭😭😭
That kids Christ-Air was the move of the Competition!!! Fire!!!
That 14yo kid do a 9 and 720 in his 1st run, and only got an 80?.. these judges a hard to impress. They must be real skaters.... Btw that 11yo little dude is a straight monster to be getting air like that. Lol dang kid has almost grown into his board.
Moto's crossbone at 25:17 is ridiculous.
These judges need to be drug screened
Tom Schaar what a great run 🛹and Moto Shibata wow!!!
Yeah, but to score Tom over Moto was a joke!
if ballerinas had wheels.. they would be moto shibata.
Gui got screwed. These judges blow.
“Gotta get that baby out the sky!” 😂…the future of skateboarding is bright 😎
I still don't understand how judges just don't care about Gui throwing 900's EVERY TRY... something nobody else even tries in the competitions. The same way they seemed to give zero f's about mitchie brusko's 1260... like wth is going on with judging at the X games
Yeah... they've seen it... like when Schaar threw 900's down in Vert Runs back in LA in 2012... 5 for 5 that Vert Comp.
It's not rocket science, people. He'll grow and come back stronger. Good for his Best Trick abilities, but his Vert Runs have to grow.
As for Moto, I saw that run in 2015 when he got Silver...
Gui and Moto were robbed
I remember I was 13 back in mid 80 s I could hang with the big boys on the vert ramp in my town . It’s a feeling u can’t describe to skate big ramp at a young age . U feel like a king until u hang up on the Copin and spill to to flats and get injured like I did
Buen campeonato para Leonardo Vinicius, se lleva la experiencia y además hace buen puesto, con tan solo 11 años solo puede ir a mejor y mejorar en su técnica y físico, paso a paso y con cabeza. Ánimos desde La Bañeza Campeón!!!!! 💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻🔥🛹🛹
The judging in my humble opinion wasjust criminal ...seriously ...its like they weren't even watching what i was ...feel sorry for the skaters who were clearly robbed
Wow... the judges definitely had some sort of bias.
Shibata fue el mejor
"No Grab b/s air"?!?!, isn't that called an "Ollie"?
Guy Khury robbed
Did Gui did something to the judges coffe?
clay is looking unhealthy, bro needs a double cheeseburger or ten
Judging is off….
They definitely have their favorites.
Beasts. These runs are killer
Yo anyone gonna talk about clay dislocating his shoulder, putting it back in and getting back up there?! I’ve dislocated my shoulder before. He most definitely dislocated that thing
How can judges possibly judge tricks if they can't even do it themselves? When your judging the best people on the cutting edge of innovation in a discipline like this, the only people that are even remotely valid judges are their current peers. I doubt all the judges can throw 900's in the middle of their run everytime or 540 impossible variations whatever the heck thing moto shibata does.
Gui Koury landed his 900 just under coping. Love the skating, not the commentary.
moto, gui, tom
i bet moto could do damestoys run, no way damestoy could get close to motos tho. he got solid air if thats the "power" judges looking for. watch their runs back to back and it doesnt look like damestoy is getting that much higher up and you can tell whos run was more difficult for sure
I don't care anymore about the places, Gui and Leo Vini were the the most fun to watch
Every single one of these phenoms are incredible vert skaters!!!!!!! I'm always rooting for my boy clay!!!
They need Vertical Veterans as commentators. 80s & 90s pros. Nicky Guerrero would be good. He has a huge bag of trix. He knows the deal.
Who else misses Bob burnquest bucky lasek and rune glifburg in these contest
tony hawks 900 has become a childs play thing
Dude did a 900 and got an 80. I can’t with this.
the first run of the shibata moto trick was so insane why did he take 2nd place
Elliot Sloan's airs should be the minimum height, not the biggest.
Dudes should be going 10 to 14 on the reg.
Why did the judges hate Gui and Moto so much? Vinicius is going to be a beast once he gets pubes.
Holy Smokes Moto's first run.
Love this sport. ❤
legend!
What’s with the judges not being able to name any of the actual tricks? Look at X Games footage from 20 years ago and they’ll shout out every trick within a couple of seconds
why doesn't vert deserve properly educated commentators?
I think these announcers are friends with xgames crew. Gary Rogers is such a terrible at commenting. Cringe
