Yeah! I’m so excited! I went to a skatepark in Japan a few weeks ago and I had a session with like, 7 girls. I thought it was awesome to see them out there skating.
We are watching history in the making every single contest with these girls! NBDs are being done almost every comp. Were watching girls progression in hypespeed in real time. Most of these girls arent even close to thier full skills yet. These are exciting times for the growth of skateboarding.
It got me thinking about Olympics, specifically gymnasts. The age spread is similar, where women compete at the highest levels much earlier than men, and they also don’t carry their careers as late into adulthood as men. (I’m going off years of anecdotal evidence, I have no citations.) I’m hoping to see all these female skaters doing even better in 10 years, and still able to crush it after another 10, but time will tell.
Ah yes. A full month later we get a version that can actually be watched. Most people couldn't even get Rumble to work. It took me several days of buffering & reloading to get through the contest.
@antoniodominguezjr4734 SLS was on YT then moved to Rumble and made a worse experience for skaters to watch it. No one can say anything about that or it's okay for you to criticize them? Cool.
@@skateboyelement Yeah that was years ago.. I was rooting for their progression back then (well here we are now) but it was kind of embarrassing back in 2012 watching womens skateboarding events. Ten years and it's progressed massively, great to watch and relatable. Hugely technical skateboarders, outside of contest a lot of them have great tricks. Funa does ollie late back foot flips up gaps. Momiji posted on her instagram a nose slide nollie 270 heel out
1:03:07 Man Momiji is the queen of steeze and such a technical skater (that crook nollie heel was insane) but I feel so bad for her when she started crying. she really wanted to be First but also tried to be a good sportswoman. She was rooting for chloe but you could tell it was so hard on her to be bumped off first place. 1:03:28 she can barely compose herself 1:03:58 was so hard for me to watch you can see she's in anguish after celebrating for Chloe but realising she missed out on 1st again.
Momiji lost by 1.3 points, so it really came down to whether the judges docked points for the toe drag on Chloe's 50-50 kickflip out. It's arguable either way
its a scam to push influence towards Australia since alot of influence is already in japan/china Momiji is miles better then Chole cheese tricks thats all im going to say the judges scoring that cheese that way is disrespectful
I agree. At first glance it looked like an 8.8ish but after looking at the slow motion replay it looked like it'd be much less but it didn't really affect the ride away.
A maioria falando que seria bacana se a Momiji vencesse, porém, a Chloe passou por tantas dificuldades lá em Chicago, quase chorou! Foi bacana ver ela dar a volta por cima!
Amazing!!! That 9 club was well deserved, but that fifty kickflip out with that pretty agressive toe drag getting an 8.8, comparing to the clean back tail down the eleven of Rayssa getting an 7.2? Not fair in my opinion! What do you guys think?
Tailslide def got a low score, but I completely disagree that imperfect landings should be docked. I think they were doing the right thing in early SLS: if the landing was very dirty, the docked it hard, the trick could get like a 5 that would've gotten a 9 if landed perfectly; but otherwise dirty landings weren't docked at all and got a full score. I like that much more. Skateboarding is not gymnastics. It's hard, it's sketchy, and sometimes sketchiness can look even cooler than a perfect trick. E.g. I'm surprised by Malto's commentary on some of the imperfect landings. Chloe's switch flip had a powerslide, so what? It's so much sicker to see that she landed it first try while not having it on lock like a robot! Thankfully the judges agreed here and didn't lower the score at all.
They robbed funa so hard, at another sls she did a nosebluntslide they docked so many points from her and she didn’t even toe drag she was just wobbly.. she lost to Leal by like 0.3, when she deserved maybe 2 more points.
To quote Chris Roberts; I love it! For every skater in this final, there should be two proud parents and other relatives. Congratulations to Covell, crazy stuff!
Covell would have won even if they only gave her _switch_ Kickflip a 7.8. Even the men would likely have gotten at least a 7.8 for a switch Kickflip down an 11 stair.
@@thallrudedjentstorm1756yea I don’t agree with giving her the trophy before announcing she won, kind of disrespectful to Momiji. As for her trick, it wasn’t just a kick flip , she did it switch down an 11 stair…for women that’s huge. I don’t think it would be scored that high if it was men’s. I think if they would’ve docked Chloe’s toe drag from her previous trick Momiji would have won for sure!
Chloe…. You are special… so brave… so much mental control…. So genuine… so glad you won…. I was rooting for you since the beginning of the competition… you’re amazing!
Mas se a Rayssa vencer na Australia,eu querover a sua cara,aqui em Tokio a Rayssa nitidamente,abriu mão de um podium,ele só queria a vitória,ou um nine club,em2 oportunidades,ele precisava de um 8. mas arriscou o nine club,por isso perdeu 3 tricks,isso acontece com quem arisca,a Momiji em Roma ficou em 8º porque arriscou tudo,e ninguem criticou
@@joo664 que loucura é essa aqui! Se a rayssa ganhar eu vou ficar super feliz por ela! Isso que eu acho mais foda nela, ela quer vencer, ela ñ quer um 2° ou 3° lugar, isso são pra poucas no mundo! Por isso q ela é quem é! Por isso que ela já tá na história!
It’s incredible how the women have progressed these last few years , absolutely amazing , so good to watch , it’s fantastic for the sport , can’t wait for the future to see more , brilliant 😎
Age plays a part in it. How many 13 year olds can switchflip? How many of them could do it on this stage under this pressure? There's only a handful of skaters at our local parks that can make the flip down a gap.
Only a couple of them are actually good. But their biggest issue is they need to quit getting off their board. They loose time and momentum when they do.
It was a switch kick flip, it wouldn’t be a 9 if it were the men’s finals. Because it’s women’s and it was down a big set and it wasn’t done previous by her or other skaters is why it scored so high.
@@skeley1167 wow what a great argument… is 1167 the amount of brain cells you possess? The girls in SLS are just as admired by the fans as the men. Name another sport that has the same balance…
Lmao, those people are there to see the men's final. Women's Soccer/Football is obviously the most spectated female sport in the world, it's also the highest paying. Probably followed by Tennis. Women's skateboarding wouldn't even register in the top 10. This video doesn't even have 50,000 views
Damn they all progressed so fast, flipping in and out of grinds now. Love it!

Right!?!?! Did you see the ages in comparison to the men? Oldest woman was 23.

this is why I watch this rather than the men, this is so exciting every single time.

@@Ender_FPV I’m criticizing your whininess. If you just stated it generally, I wouldn’t have. It’s how petty and entitled you sound.
I live in France. Rumble is unavailable in France 🥲
dang chloe really pulled off that switch flip she is indeed special. I really wanted it for momiji because she's one of my favorite skaters.
Rayssa ❤
These ladies are killing it! Mad props to Chloe, i'm 37 and 20 years later doing switch tricks lol. She's on another level
Right! I'm 41 and I've lost almost all of my tricks. 😢
finally women skating is actually freaking awesome and on a level we can actually enjoy watching! Keep it on!
The WNBA should be taking notes.
the real enjoy was the time if a woman do an gap ollie and got a 8.9 for it lol

i'm with u but the clutch switch flip sealed it

You are amazing. Single? 🫶🏾
I kind of died when he was like "they already gave her the trophy"
That was a great competition!
Rayssa is Wonderfull, and Chloe too
noooooooooooo!! momiji 😭😭
Poor Momiji. She was so close.
Spoiler
Her name is Momiji
@@Rimey oops. I misspelled.
SPOILERS UGH lol
Never read the comments prior to watching. #DUH
WOW!!! I have naver been moved so much. Way to go Chloe!
momiji got stollen
Yea right? A nine for a kickflip? In the SLS mens series this wouldn't even get a six...
Covell would have won even if they only gave her _switch_ Kickflip a 7.8. Even the men would likely have gotten at least a 7.8 for a switch Kickflip down an 11 stair.
Momiji 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
1:04:42 "They already gave her the trophy?" lol what the heck happened there?
Yea right? How was the kickflip down the stairs a friggin nine????

Loads more emotional watching the woman, for the better. Can genuinely see what it means to them, kinda like when Jamie won BATB.
I had so many tears along the way, especially at the end. Epic af.
these girls are amazing
Momiji has the coolest style out of them all
Way to go, Chloe!
Bro this is crazy 😮❤❤
Chloe…. You are special… so brave… so much mental control…. So genuine… so glad you won…. I was rooting for you since the beginning of the competition… you’re amazing!
Sick as 🤙
Yeah Chloe top stuff girl yah bloody legend 🏆🥳.......
Switch flip was epic
😮 The level is rising a lot 🎉
Que dó a momiji chorando, ela é muito fofinha ❤😢 merecia ganhar em casa, agora vou torcer pra ela se vingar na austrália e ganhar da chloe

wheres bufoni with her gym pants and fs 180s?
9 club and a 8.8 toe touching, damn. Not mentioning the 7.2. Jeess.
Wow. That was intense down to the very end.
Felt bad for Leal not getting the 6th win being the most winning.
I love watching the girls! so cool
I loved this final!!! So fucking good
I was cheering forNakauama the whole time, she looked like she almost cried. Respect
this is awesome im fucking crying hahaha
😂😢😂 Same! So intense.
HOW IS A FRONT NOSE GRIND A HIGHER SCORE THAN A BACK TAIL idgaf what obstacle it’s on they were robbing leal all day
they stay robbing her
Where is gustavo ribeiro?
One of the best SLS finals!!
Chloe Covell Just WOW! She deserved the win. Her consistency was incredible through out and only 13. Imagine what she’ll be doing as a seasoned pro.
Coveeeeeeeeeeeeelllllllll
Im happy Chloe won really but I was hoping early on momiji would get it and turns out she was sooo close.
Congrats to Chloe! But how is a switchflip a 9club?
Yea true lol
How is a normal kickflip a 7
Age plays a part in it. How many 13 year olds can switchflip? How many of them could do it on this stage under this pressure? There's only a handful of skaters at our local parks that can make the flip down a gap.
so if a 16 year old does a switchflip it should get scored lower? No way thats the case (should be the case) in a SLS contest.
@@backstabbingpotato I didn't say it should, but it appears that it does.
pretty big sco fo so much toe on the flo
Chloe Covell is really shaping up to be a very consistent and talented skater. Maybe someday she’ll get as many golds as Leal or Nyjah.
Only a couple of them are actually good. But their biggest issue is they need to quit getting off their board. They loose time and momentum when they do.
💚
Yumeka (57:23)
Tanto para Nada...🙄
Se a Rayssa esquecesse o Celular um pouco se sairia melhor..🤨😏
The judging was kinda wack
⚡
Judging is poor 7.2 for a bs tailslide and 8.8 for a 50/50 flip
34:02 34:27
7.2 Backtail down 11? Did they meant to type 8.2 and got it wrong? SLS scoring is just wack overall but never to this level.
So everyone is just skating for second when Leal is skating haha
What? She didn't even place lol.
33:59 "fukuna have some work to do" Rofl
Since when a kickflip down the stair is a nine? What the hell...
It was a switch kick flip, it wouldn’t be a 9 if it were the men’s finals. Because it’s women’s and it was down a big set and it wasn’t done previous by her or other skaters is why it scored so high.
It's switch flip over 11 stairs and it's NBD especially for women who rarely skate switch
Plus, she is only how old?
Deram uma GARFADA na Rayssa. Ta maluco kkkkkkkk
move over Rayssa. Well done Chloe!!!
Almost thought Bobby Lee was gonna win for sec
This is getting too cringey
The WNBA should be taking notes from these girls. You want more fans? You gotta dunk that $#!!.
If Rayssa 16 I’m 16
😅 what
sadly this is me for momiji XD
I think women’s skateboarding is the most male spectated sport… more men watch this than other female sports for sure… look at the stands…
um no💀
