This game was rigged Luan didn't have enough run up to skate at his comfortable 40 mph

Richard Perez BEST COMMENT LMFAO

[@Gumbocinno]

if i could like this a billion times i would

[@ForsakenPixel]

i came down here to specifically look for this comment. Was not disappointed when it was the first one.

[@bignickenergy2042]

Dude for real that guy lands tricks fast and pops then super high

[@cool7654321]

I love how everyone has agreed on 40 mph on every video

[@DownforceInc]

I like Cody's style. He's doing tricks you'd almost never see, and he looks like he's just chilling. The contrast between their styles is interesting to watch.

[@d1surv]

Cepeda landed every trick, woowww

[@averyhuelsbeck3116]

Really amazing skate styles to see in one place. Cody's tricks look effortless (steezy) but Luan's looks like he's putting everything he's got into each trick. Amazing to see the differences in style

[@audaciousleoo]

Avery Huelsbeck what steez? He had small pop but Luan popped them all high with steez

[@Red4350]

While I really like Luans steez...you gotta respect the steez Cody where it looks like he didn't even try..

[@steaminmeats]

Cody’s looks better to me cause looks like he doesn’t even try when he skates

bruce justin or because he just sucks

[@Doatello1991]

[@PenutButtahnJelli]

this was craze-amaze.... How is Luan able to get so much pop on his tricks? Is he a jedi?

[@berrics]

I didn't see one person congratulate Cody in the comments....

[@adamryanisneato]

Thenormalguy101 Because Cody only won technically. He can't match Luan's form.

[@Thenormalguy101]

Still, doesn't mean you cant give him some congrats

[@FlipAndLand]

adamXcore What the fuck are you talking about? You say someone won "technically" when they really should have lost but "technically" didn't. There's no "technically" about this. He won. He did more tricks than Luan could do. It's not a game of style. It's a game of skate.

[@FlipAndLand]

No. YOU don't. You said he won technically. No. He won full stop. "Technically" states that he would have only won because of the rules. Should have lost but didn't. Check the score. Clearly won on skill.

[@BILLCOSBYKOK]

cody was like "I WILL END YOU"

[@calsas]

Cody did a lot of weird shit and Luan was able to defend very decently! If Luan had started out, it could have been a completely different game! Watching Luan skate is such a joy, but Cody did a great job too!

[@johnraw98]

luan is better , hes has more style and his tricks are perfect , and the most important thing , he is fucking HUMBLE ... always smiling and applauding the opponents tricks

[@georgesly123]

joao vitor oliveira thats cos luan is use to the publicity. anyone would be nervous as fuck having a game of skate with luan and a massive audience watching you knowing that 100,000 more people would be watching it online as well

[@calsas]

georgesly123 Luan has ALWAYS been like that. And he's always been a shy kid and nervous when being watched by lots of people.

[@gandhimahatma3304]

georgesly123 considering how tall cody is, his style is going to look weird lol. cody is probably one of the best flatground skaters hands down. go watch "skate or dice" with him. shits insane

haha ice what you did there...hehe..ill stop now

[@cigarettesmokeeye]

You know I read so many comments about how Luan’s pop is just the greatest thing ever but it just doesn’t seem to do it for me. It gives off the impression that he’s got something to prove when he skates super fast and pops his board high when it isn’t necessary. I prefer cool, calm and collected to fast and aggressive.

[@FarmageddonRecordsOfficial]

After reading the comments on this video, it's real easy to be disgusted... Both Cepeda and Oliveira are insanely talented skaters, both brought a lot of ability and skill to the table. To even post any kind of negativity on such a rad video is seriously insane. BATB is a great thing, and bringing your black clouds to the table is pointless. Keep in mind that the game of skate is just a game, all of the skaters really brought a lot to the table, whether their styles vary, skill levels, the bottom line is this, you skate to win, and if you have to pull a Koston, and bust a early 90's pressure flip out to give your opponent a letter, well... that's what it's all about. The people who are posting negative things need to step off, this is a positive thing, and those who participated in it all walked away friends, keep it clean homies!

***** will try to work on that then :D

[@JackPostich]

+AndreCorner is feet are tiny (like size 7) and he rides an 7.5 board.

[@JonasPolsky]

Cody's got such a huge arsenal. I had seen a little of Luan before, but after this contest, I'm a massive fan. Nobody brought that kind of speed and pop to a game of Skate, he's amazing.

[@TOObusyskatingMEDIA2]

i remember watching this on my computer live. i stayed there for 3 hours watching this and it was so exciting! great memories im glad cody won!

[@nathanfagan3501]

Luan was just hanging on for dear life lol codys bag is too deep

[@averyhall4687]

This battle and every battle Cody was in for this one was epic. He literally destroyed and defended his way to the top than when he made it to the top with Luan, he completely skunked him. That’s for the Joe’s of skateboarding who have no name and do it for the fun. You don’t have to be a big name to be one of the best. I still love watching these games years later.

[@jay-rreyes1808]

There should be a "Best Defensive Skater" award.

[@Camoflaugepencil]

pj Ladd would've won it

[@Ironsvillage]

Cody Cepeda is amazingly consistent no matter what everyone says. To pull all of these very hard tricks off one after another requires more than luck, it's incredible. Luans skating is definitely cleaner and more beautiful though.

[@MrCofeebean]

Drummin Djently Style matters but it's not everything, Micky papa catches so much flak for his style too when they're all monsters

[@jackstewart10]

Your stupid

[@JShotGamingPs3]

I agree

[@TheMillziie]

cody has long as fuck legs so thats probably why it looks like that and in my opinion "steez" doesnt matter as long as you can do the tricks its algood.

[@markgreer2705]

Millzie...style is all that matters.because there is a finite number of tricks but an infinite number of styles in which they can be done,that all vary due to personality and physical traits. for example both keelan and prod can backside flip,but they both do it with there own unique ''steez''.as to which one is better,well that all subjective to the viewer.thats why skateboarding is an art...

[@FalseCast]

eat-ah diz-ick The game of S.K.A.T.E is not judged on "style," so, it's not "all that matters," it's completely irrelevant in this case.
