[@blast_away]

he could've gotten him out, but didn't out of respect, like he stopped doing the late flips since it wouldn't be much of a match since he noticed paul didn't have those down

[@JesseDumontt]

Suke, or you know, it's also possible those were the only late flip variations he knew he could do or was confident enough with to do, and wasn't feeling any others (or knew any others) and just lost fair and square. Notice how it was literally all consistency and fundamentals that won this game. Paul didn't give Johnny a single letter with a weird or hard trick. These joes don't have the consistency or fundamentals is all.

[@blast_away]

he wasn't very good when this was recorded

[@ScrotumTingle]

its funny cause a joe won...but seriously johnny can do dozens of lateflips, but idk if he can do many of them first try. i think he just choked under pressure, he looked super nervous

[@johnperez2137]

+Ben Allan yeah, I think after he missed the switch 360, his mind probably got stuck and added more pressure on himself. it seems like after that he lost his confidence or something. I'm just speculating but it was still a good game haha

all the joes in batb 7 and 8 are good at weird double flip tricks and 180 variations but the pros have basic tricks down like regular fs heel and fs flip. all the new up comers are too busy doing new age tricks so they arent as consistent with old tricks.

@@rapha6267 I think it has to do with the fact that Jonny could easily beat prod with obscure shit, or late flips, which prod isn't good at. Jonny is crazy as hell when it comes to flat ground.
