In my opinion this is the best part iv seen all year , every trick in this was incredible and ground breaking, props to Zion for putting in so much effort to make this amazing video part.
@Siege Yasharahla ya I hear you. Joslin could take it cause of stuff like the Davis gap tre and that nollie flip on that HUGE 9 flat 9. But nyjsh is so clean and technically unreal, and he still does big stuff. I would personally give it to joslin but nyjah is right there.
@Siege Yasharahla I heard Phelps basically decides. Which would explain why some many skaters put up with his bullshit. But ya either way it's not always the best skater that wins. Theres politics even in skateboarding as sad as that is.
No disrespect to Tyshawn getting soty, but pretty sure that only happened cause the hype beasts probably joined in on the voting. If pure skaters were only involved, Evan or Zion, or maybe even Louie would’ve got it.
Wow. Just wow. The board control this kid has is next level greatness. I happened to miss it but He for sure won SOTY this year right? Right?? RIGHT?!?!
any mother fucker can do hench rails and gaps these days. aint nobody else nollie flipping over a trash can. how hard is this for you people to understand?
Guys he doesn’t only need talent to do these tricks at these deadly spots but lot of courage! Hope this guy is getting decently paid by his sponsors ! Such a fucking beast
When thrasher doesnt have audio on the intro because everyones completely wrecked from new year and wouldnt like to hear that but wish to spin out to the sound of trucks grinding on metal in bed
Love these rough cuts and hate them at the same time and sucks seeing people get robbed on a trick from wheel bite cracks rocks etc let alone seeing some of the bails that could send someone to the hospital if they didn't know how to bail or fall the rite way and Zion is as good getting out of those nasty slams as he is getting the trick.
He could probably do some incredible variations on that rail he 50-50 gap to back smithed. Maybe a backsmith to crook or a backsmith to feeble would be amazing. Back smith to back smith seems like the hardest but it would be cool to see that as well.

The Real Skater Of The Year In My Eyes
How so they decide? So many better than the dude who won it. Why hasn't Evan Smith won yet?!
NO DOUBT
havent they not anounched it yeat
Zion was my pick for SOTY too
The real 2018 SOTY. Tyshawn rips forsure, but this dude owned 2018 like how Foy owned 2017.
I agree
comment of the year
Theres nothing like the sound of trucks grinding on metal and concrete.
1:43 those wheels spinning
pool tiles and masonite seams!
Except for tail and nose slides/blunts
@@jaydill5684 the wheels spinning on his tres are sex
In my opinion this is the best part iv seen all year , every trick in this was incredible and ground breaking, props to Zion for putting in so much effort to make this amazing video part.
Nyjahs till death part is insane. And joslins album part is insane too

Zion should have gotten it. Hopefully he will have another great year and put it down for 2019
What about joslin lol. Have you not heard of him haha
Only a bs flip and you are soty xD
dallasonfire604 Joslin a fucking savage my guy. But the level of skateboarding was just a level higher this year.
@@dumb_as_rocks its popular vote, you don't know anything about skating. We all were allowed to cast a vote on SOTY, not just phelps.
I'm almost as impressed by this guys ability to perform the perfect bail EVERY SINGLE TIME as his skating... almost.
That's crucial to his whole operation.
Casually kickflip front boards through a kink after that crook 😬
Cerazzzzzy
so sick..
The stoke prevailed
Zion. Bruh. Better be skater of the year next year. That ender was crazy😂😂
Is it weird that I enjoy watching rough cuts as much as the normal parts... I feel like it makes you appreciate the trick even more
Zion is killin it. Big and clean. Dude skates street and transition. Damn good part.
Wow. Just wow. The board control this kid has is next level greatness. I happened to miss it but He for sure won SOTY this year right? Right?? RIGHT?!?!
I know right. So bummed he got robbed out of SOTY
so much potential in this dude cant wait to see where he goes
I don't even care Zion is still my 2018 SOTY
Never get tired of watching this kid.
Front 5-0 on that monster rail was mind melting!
I count 25 stairs. Epic
Incredible. Gnarliest skater alive.
Film Guy: Yo Zion, check out this 37 and a half kink rail....
Zion: Yeah cool cool, frontside or back tho?
Those are real stunts right there. Holy shit. Skateboarding has gone completely wild.
The REAL Soty right here
Definitely in the top 10 of best skaters
Fabian Irvin shit definitely skater of the year fo sho
highJodybeats69 💯
SOTY RIGHT HERE!!!
yeah ok, tyshawn got soty and this guy did not, better check your glasses Phelps
any mother fucker can do hench rails and gaps these days. aint nobody else nollie flipping over a trash can. how hard is this for you people to understand?
@@dumb_as_rocks well dude that is all he pretty much did that was amazing,did he do any gnarly almost deadly tricks? not really
Incredible athleticism! Some of those bails are almost as impressive! BEAST!!!
Zion killing it 🔥
risky move breaking a window and leaving the scene wearing nike and redbull. awesome part and this was even sicker shows the work put into it
Zion is a shred lord
Zion is a different bread
Fuck me damn autocorrect
@Arby wonderbread
Hehehe
lmao
Rye bread
Has a great style, puts together great lines, and super versatile. Rails, transition..doesn't matter. Kills it. Why wasn't he SOTY?!
Yes totally agree. All around skater. Dude takes on anything
Good way to start the day. Thanks Thrasher.
Starting 2019 off with a banger
Zion deserved 2018 SOTY 100%
100% agree
dude this guy is crazy
This kid skates like it’s his job
starting the new year fucking rad!
How the fuck is he able to do 540s too WTF? He makes slamming look like it's not really that bad... imagine watching this go down in person.
I was thinking Evan should be soty but when you watch this it has to go to Zion, all round annihilation was ridiculous.
That's some bad ass tricks. Skating in 92 was my best technical year. But that stuff was on flat ground, and know where near these guys.👍✌
RAW mate.
Slaying it so hard. Soty by far
Awesome vid
He's my SOTY
This man is from a different breed.
Love this b side footage!
Guys he doesn’t only need talent to do these tricks at these deadly spots but lot of courage! Hope this guy is getting decently paid by his sponsors ! Such a fucking beast
Dammmmmm that boi gooood
Shredding like a mad man
This part is sick af
mind melted
I love Tyshawn and the FA crew but they straight up ROBBED Zion. It's really obvious, this guy is a machine.
FL boyz
Cromer, Foy, and Zion southern Florida beasts.
@@ddesouz6 Sorgente as well...
Delfino too! Big ups from Miami.
When thrasher doesnt have audio on the intro because everyones completely wrecked from new year and wouldnt like to hear that but wish to spin out to the sound of trucks grinding on metal in bed
Dude is insane!
The real SOTY of 2018.
Grandmaster SOTY 🙏🏽
it just turned 2019 here.... like 2 min ago... fuck this is more important!
he gets a a++
Incredible Skating! I hope they took responsibility and paid for the door.
The real soty
SOOOO SICKK
Homie will prolly win several SOTY awards in the future.....I hope that banger ass last trick is not incriminating lol🤘😈🤘
he got nike money it's good
your the best skater i ever seen
Diggin his e30 in the background
My SOTY
Does this dude ever hurt himself? Seems to have mastered the art of bounce n roll. Awesome skating.
Last slide was something :000

No disrespect to anybody but this right here is SOTY material all the way. 🤯
He could probably do some incredible variations on that rail he 50-50 gap to back smithed. Maybe a backsmith to crook or a backsmith to feeble would be amazing. Back smith to back smith seems like the hardest but it would be cool to see that as well.
dude was born to ride
MY 2018 Soty

Even after seeing the blessed part I still think Zion shoulda got SOTY
Z is the Real SOTY 2018
Inspired to face my fears and hit rails this guy is a fukn monster
Machine
Take that Nyjah!
WAOOO 🔥🙌🏼
This guy is a raging bull when he steps on that wood
I always wondered why skaters risk their ankles and balls on handrails when they have access to such beautiful vert.
This is why.
10:36 small el toro
