@@jameshelmkay6764 yeh braden does the exact same trick aswell they all do, i would understnd more if it was sls, they alway mark down for repeated tricks
What makes Braden so pleasing to watch? SPEED which gives the impression of powerful and the speed translates to more tricks, and he rides the board and links tricks more. So many others do 1 trick, then walk up the next ramp, turn around and do 1 trick. Watching most of them it's like watching a best trick with a few tries in 1 go. How can you call it a "line run" if they're only doing 1 trick and not linking any?
I agree. Stepping off of the board, should lose points for that. Reward for staying on and flowing it all together. They also need to make sure courses are set up more easily for that.
@@BcottStudios you obviously are not a street skater if that's what you feel is what defines who is a better skater. All cause you can stay on your board the whole time means nothing if all your putting down are simple tricks.
Nyjah's run was much faster, he hit bigger obstacles, and he fit more tricks in that flowed around the park more. Gustavo did have really good tech tricks though. I think the judges reward the higher danger factor in Nyjahs run.
Honestly couldnt agree more. Who are these judges ? Have they ever ridden a skateboard ? Do they know how hard it is nollie flip out of a crooked grind on a 9 stair handrail ? Like, how hard could it be to judge skateboarding ? Seems like any skateboarder could do it fairly easily.

Thats embarrassing from the judges, I know theres sponsors involved and what not but come on, do a better job hiding it, that run should earned him at least a 92.
gustavo spent too much time on the smaller obstacles. the crowd and i were hyped to see him explode with those tech tricks, but unfortunately the judges want to gnar AND tech. i agree he was underscored and possibly beat braden's initial score, but not braden's next upgraded run. shoulda been nyjah 95, braden 93 and gustavo 91. so i think it actually turned out okay...
Nyjah making history with a solid performance! But I cant stand how Gustavo Ribeiro gets judged way too low for what he put down. Same on SLS lately. His tricks are so difficult and creative yet he gets underscored every time.

Time flies but to see that he’s still in his prime, time is still here.. I haven’t kept up with these in years so it’s good to watch again lol I feel like a kid💫
Jahncarlos and Gustavo were both brutally underscored. Look, I know what people are going to say about Gustavo and his predictable runs, but at the end of the day: the judges need to score a run for the tricks that are in it, NOT if they can predict it. Otherwise, you can start saying the same thing about Dawshawn's Lazerflips and Front 270 lips or Yuto's Nollie Front/Back 270 lips or Vincent's Kickflip Front Lips and Switch Back Nose Grinds or Nyjahs Switch/Nollie Heelflips. Every single big skater has their predeictable tricks that they do every contest, so if all the other skaters get judged for the tricks they do and not if you can predict that they'll do them, then he shouldn't be in the 80s while Crook Nollie Flipping out on a 10 stair hand rail mid run.
The podium was on point but Gustavo shouldve been at least second place , those that say that Gustavo does the same tricks every time have never steped foot on a skateboard and are ignorant to see that all the skaters has the same tricks in all the competitions because you cant have every trick on lock to do it in a row in a competition , skateboarding is HARD poeple !!

These commentators are so brutal. There are articulate skateboarders out there, I''ll never understand why SLS and X-Games does such a bad job finding them. I wish there was an option to watch it with sound but no commentary.
WTGooo Nyjah! If Hoban frontside flipped over the rail into bank and impossible over the VW bus I'd give it to him cause that would be wild. Always stoked to see the Riberos out there.
gustavo ribiero got robbed his run was way better than braden's, both of his runs, the judging seems to screw over gustavo ribiero a lot. crooks kickflip out, flip back lip, flip nose slide, 3 flip 50 was way better than bradens runs...
JHANCARLOS GONZALEZ GOT SCREWED ON his first run! 78 on a perfect run with multiple hammers is crazy

During Jah 3rd run dude is like where can he upgrade, not paying attention to the upgraded fakie fs flip over the gap to bs 180 switch 5-0

I think he could have snatched the gold if he crook nollie flipped the rail on top of the car. I know it's a tall order, but that would be legendary
