Facts

[@Blane_be_fishin]

It was sick. But I don’t think it was better than the top 3. Maybe 3rd at best.

[@WitlessMean]

that trick is cool and kinda new but it's really not that hard. every one does switch heels and a switch front nose is basically a backside tailslide stance. I don't think the trick is that insane. With that being said, he definitely does get robbed other times. And also, raimu is the one who really got robbed this time. Switch 270 front blunt much rawer than nyjahs halfcab flip crook.

[@cloutii]

@@WitlessMeanthat trick shits on half cab flip crooked grind any day tho. Wut is ur logic, by ur logic nyjahs trick is only a half cab flip + crooked grind, both of which is inferior to switch nose and switch heel. Tf u talking about

[@nedtempleton4873]

@@jeroenretsok Wrong! Try a Halfcab kickflip crooked grind and then try a Nollie bigspin heelflip backside tailslide, the latter is way harder.

[@sk8_bort]

@@Subaruuu12 he's right. I would need 100 years to land nollie big heel back tail and like around 300 years to land half cab flip crook. But trick difficulty is extremely subjective at this level of skateboarding.

Why is Raimu's SW 270 Bluntslide 5th? It's better than Nyjah's Half Cab Flip Crooked and on par with Cordano's Fakie 270 Noseslide. Ginwoo's SW Heel FS Noseslide is also better than Nyjah's trick (and better than Cordano's Fakie Heel FS Boardslide which scored higher than Ginwoo). And is Ginwoo's SW Heel FS Noseslide worse than Cordano's Fakie 270 Noseslide and Fakie FS Flip Noseslide? They scored Ginwoo higher than Raimu. I call this bad judging.

[@littlerobot2340]

Thank you

[@English_Harry]

@@danielsmekss6453 yeah, I think cordano s tricks, specifically the fakie 270 tail is absolutely ridiculous and deserves to be right up there. I agree though that nyjahs trick shouldn't be podium. I can't do any of the tricks that they did but half cab flip crook feels like, the least scary one to go for out of all of them.

[@billybobthekidiswack]

Nah, fakie 270 tail is arguably the hardest trick done imo. I would say the switch 270 blunt and the cab hurricane should've been 3rd place contenders though.

[@nedtempleton4873]

​@@ahmedabouayyad Asians are usually tough and strict yes, and maybe some of them are harsh, but maybe not all of them. I'm not saying he's not getting any pressure but we're speculating based on body language and there may be more to it than that. I'm not going to watch it again to check if he's getting what looks like pressure or not and how much if he is but a little bit of pressure is good because it can make you perform better. If he's getting that it reflects why he's so good and is such a 'machine' for his age. And you know how teenagers are, they don't want to talk to their parents in public and they don't want to be seen in public with their parents. He is 14, maybe turning 15 this year, approaching the time of initial teenage rebellion. Also, Ginwoo may not like the cameraman filming that close.
