The huge difference between Louie compared to Nyjah and Tyshawn is creativity and style. Honestly, Louie's just more fun to watch on a skateboard. This part was insanely well crafted, and the skating was incredible. I hate that I'm making this a conversation about SOTY, but I truly hope he gets it this year. Louie deserves it.

[@bennyshambles]

Don't forget about T-Funk. Talk about more fun to watch! I agree about Louie as well.

[@skatevidcentral]

​@@WhatisReal11 What I felt on a lot of Louie's tricks, I didn't feel at all on Nyjahs. Nyjah had big tricks, big rails but Louie's variety and creativity blows Nyjah out the water. Just the interesting trick selection and spots Louie skates, the lines he flows through vs Nyjah's part of just stair set after stair set, mostly single tricks, few lines.

[@davidcarpio7781]

@@WhatisReal11 Nyjah dropped one of the most insane video parts for sure, he was doing insane technical tricks on huge handrails, doing lines in between gnarly rail set ups. However, he's been injured most of the year so it's not fair to compare him to Louie, Tyshawn and TFunk when they've been working all year long. It would be like Lebron being injured all year long and the NBA still puts him in the running for MVP with his accumulation of stats from previous years.

[@Mrsk8park]

i loved tjs footy, i really really do, but louis has it ALLLL. no weakness anywhere in his game. he put out like 4 parts too, hes did it all: big rails, big gaps, technical spots, ledge wizardry, tasteful trick selection, perfect style, jedi board control, hillbombs, thrasher covers, switch game go crazy, gritty spots dont faze him, no cliche bullshit, multiple deadly/life threatening spots(that front feeble pop out made me scream), legendary spots that somehow are not blown out, good fits and imo the songs were different and cooler than most any other predictable vid w rap or rock. he made a part just at one university and stuck an nbd in it, nobody is doing that besides him. WHAT DIDNT HE DO and do perfectly? the other contenders suffer from being too easily comfortable sticking to one thing they do well, like nyjah and big rails, but louis stands out. louie mannnnn, louie is the best he can do anything sotyyyyyyy

[@WhatisReal11]

jah clearly has no passion?

[@N0v3LisT]

For me it's also how natural he looks on his board. Like it's an extension of his body. Nobody skates like Louie, for a reason.

[@heyman620]

I thought it should be 100% Nyjah because he released arguably the most impressive part in history, but honestly, Louie released at least as impressive part a ~week(?) later. I feel like his tricks are less likely to be performed by anyone else (I don't think anyone else in the world would do this flip at the end for example, it's like Mason's but 2x). IMHO it's only between Nyjah and Louie and I would give it to both :)

[@hManuelcPinales]

Pretty sure 90% of pros can do all these tricks though

The best thing about Louie is he makes you want to go skate. He makes you want to go outside and be creative on the board and that is what makes him the best. Tyshawn is sick, but we watch his part thinking "damn he is so so good, I'd never be able to pop that high." With Louie you sit there and think "not only is this guy amazingly talented, but he is so creative and now I want to go to my local spot and try something funky." Nyjah, let's not go there. Louie has been killing it for years, and not a bad word is said about Louie. Thrasher give the man his prize!
