More like Battle of the Beanies

[@ryangranato5010]

***** First time I've seen someone use the joke "More like..." and it actually be funny

[@FirstPersonSkater]

***** Damn, I wanted to say that!

[@ryangranato5010]

FirstPersonSkater I actually thought about it 2 days ago lol. I thought to myself "Hmm, every time I see someone try to use this joke, they sound sarcastic and its never actually funny". Usually they're criticized for making such a corny joke

[@JXSHBDWY]

dude exactly what i was thinkinh

[@mildseven0506]

It would be hard to judge the best beanie wouldn't it lol 😎🤣

[@luiza177music]

Asta's BS360 was friggin beautiful

[@luiza177music]

I usually find FS360s more stylish by nature if done all in the air. Theirs were great. Asta's BS360 was

[@MargarineMan44]

luiza177music yeah Asta's 360s are fresh, I think its cuz the board sticks to his feet unlike the casual one foot off ones, also I like how his upper body lags on the last quarter rotation

[@luiza177music]

That and he pops them really high.

[@ianturnbow7011]

+Dream (In2D) Jim Greco shits all over guys that don't have the momentary one foot during a back 3. I believe he said, "WE'RE NOT FUCKIN SNOWBOARDERS."

[@ianturnbow7011]

Patrick Lunardi He did say that in an interview

[@jahmckay7085]

God damn what a showdown!!! I thought PJ was gonna take him out for sure but way to go T.A!!! 🤙🏼

[@ianjohnson5752]

I love that it tells you the tricks that they are doing. Sometimes it's hard to tell certain tricks apart.

[@jaimeelliott4693]

Tom astas bs 360s are so good, I really liked his inward heel as well

[@pirateisonfire]

Asta on fucking fire, great game!😊

[@skaterjake0]

This was definitely one of the most entertaining games of skate i've watched.

[@iKeepItDustyEnt]

I was really pulling for PJ. Fuck!

[@trentonfrays1178]

Tom Asta sure has better flip tricks than I, but I still have a better moustache. Lol.

[@powerswish]

2:47. Unreal. If I spun a back 3 that slowly, I might make it to 135 degrees.

[@ythandlerandom1278LK]

It was like he did a 180, late 180

[@maximoplf]

Asta is really consistent and has a great style in this edition. I think him, Luan (which unfortunately lost) and Sewa are the ones with the cleanest tricks.

[@pedromartinazzo5036]

maximoplf Luan won

[@maximoplf]

Pedro Martinazzo Luan lost to Cody. Got a T, though.

[@pedromartinazzo5036]

maximoplf last year

[@maximoplf]

Pedro Martinazzo No, this year. Go to the berrics and check. They posted the video this weekend. Now it's Cody x Shanne on the finals.

[@kunntakinte8625]

Pedro Martinazzo What the hell are you going on about luan has never won.

[@torgriu]

Asta`s Inward Heel at 1:30 was a thing of beauty!

[@mildseven0506]

0:35 just to start things off

[@jacobpirate8316]

Awesome game! That Nollie FS 180 Inward Heelflip was sick!

[@over30sk8tv8]

Nollie fs inward heelflip. Wow.

[@Soberisshh]

Nico Tries To Skate Id call it a 360 inward to give him more credit but yea, not the point. Defenitely WOW

[@Tzalmavet]

Nico Tries To Skate That's how you know we're in for some crazy ass video parts within the next few years.

[@over30sk8tv8]

Tristen Whitlock Can't wait! :)

[@bluestatic95]

Tristen Whitlock definently dude, that trick is becoming more common

[@HenryDeMedina]

A though one

[@XceedDriver]

Totally wasn't expecting that outcome. Good game.

[@DollaBill313]

This is definitely one of the best games yet.

[@ShinyHubCaps]

Forgot about this game! One of the best. PJ always looked happy around this time too. Good to see, just having fun while pushing yourselves and each other.

[@reubenblack5700]

This battle out of what I've watched, is without a doubt one of the most skilful battles there's been, somebody hmu with one I might not have seen, spend hours watching these

[@theozamparo]

I rarely see a nollie bs 360 kickflip, even more rarely this clean, huge props to Tom Asta

[@marianoitaliano805]

PJ is so amazing ! I love to watch him skate.

[@chokehold37]

I wanted it to end up to be PJ Ladd vs Cody cepeda. Would've been a crazy game :(

[@yourfriendalejo]

Tom's style...wow. I thought that switch heel was pretty sick.

[@GuerraXV]

2:47 Oh man, unbelievable bs 360!!!

[@TeddyPESO]

Pj is still my favorite! But Tom Astanis becoming one of my favorite skateboarders. A former eS rider vs current eS rider!!!! That Nollie frontside 180 Heelflip was insane!!!!

[@shikharkapoor939]

Almost the perfect comeback from PJ

[@realvidzs]

Great game!!! That was pretty intense.

[@NizziWoods]

This was a pretty great match!

[@PhotoTech99]

Damn, they both went hard

[@charliefroess9275]

Best game of skate! Love this game!

[@antarepr]

nice match guys

[@edwardlee9845]

Wow. On another level

[@B.LAMSK8]

Wow I forgot about this one! 🤯🔥

[@DeffectiveMirrors]

When east coast meets east coast, one of my favorite matches to watch

[@muccigane5391]

great game

[@altamont123455]

nollie bs 360 kickflip by Pj ladd was a make!

[@p4fizzle]

I think this is the best game of skate ever played!

[@HenryDeMedina]

Heart pounding

[@yoqse486]

Man, that was intense.

[@teefszn6129]

my 2 favorites

[@S4V3GU1D3]

Is it possible to get dizzy from seeing three flips and three spins

[@lilsleepy3332]

woooooow. pj is one of the GOATs on flat and tom took the win. that’s gotta feel good

[@theredball]

Love the golf claps 👏👏 tom asta is like pjs son..pj swag

[@mariobarone6175]

holy shit pj almost came back with that cab flip

[@isaacsamano8697]

when is batb9 airing?

[@issacbouza4439]

Can someone explain what cabalerrial kickflip is

[@DeffectiveMirrors]

Issac Bouza it's a fakie backside 360 kickflip. Calaberrial( I probably spelled it wrong) has to do with the legend Steve Caballero who is known for doing fakie bs 360 Ollie's, which is called a Calaberrial

[@arthurthegreat216]

What the fuck just happened?!?!?!?! PJ is out?!?! Fuck me! I didn't expect that.

[@jens3945]

Why do these battles get uploaded so late on youtube? I watched this battle a while ago on the berrics website

[@whatbear12]

Because I'm eating lunch in a bit so yeah

[@norte1470]

Why did they repost this vid It's not new ?? Hope tom wins the whole thing to..

[@misterneckbreaker88]

That last trick my lawd!!

[@wagrj5738]

Asta should make a fs 360 ollie trick tip

[@michaelrodriguez5700]

Never heard of Tom but he must be a hell of a skater to beat PJ

[@LordxTrippy]

Tom asta is having a good year and he improved so much I'm impressed tbh...just saying

[@ManadaKr3w]

Pesado, nice Tom !

[@justinpharand8454]

battle of the beanies

[@garrettday3623]

jesus. they almost did all the tricks. ALL THE TRICKS!!!

[@Tinman710]

Pj Ladd is so fuckin good. No way tom would have beat him a couple years prior to this

[@nicolasiscool3390]

Pj Ladd Is a Beast

[@TheChannelized]

How awsome would it be to see shane o'neill and luan oliveira battle eachother?? :D

[@taitjones6310]

Does Chris Cole have a lisp?

[@hungrych1ld281]

Tom astas tre flips are so effortless lol

[@CallumThompson_]

this was a good game

[@dionatassilva5536]

asta ta com um estilo foda demais

[@charliefroess9275]

Reminder of how fucking insane tom asta is at flat ground... Holy shit

[@Steezus]

DAMN!

[@joshuadelrosario1401]

dang that was a hella good game, hoping pj was gonna win but still tom is hella beast

[@vmvlev]

asta really turns into a tom penny 2.0 dig his shit a lot

[@cubby6708]

So far the strongest skaters are: Pudwill, Ladd, and Luan... I mean as far as constantly killing this game.

[@smirk.7759]

I knew the kid in the beanie would win! 😂😂

[@jasondashney]

Tom's bs 360's are the best looking flatground trick of anybody's ever.

[@SimonStalner]

Tom Asta VS Shane O'neill in the final? If Tom wins the RPS against Sewa.

[@shaneplante936]

HOLY PISS.... good round.

[@minifreedom]

My boy Justin Damer in the crowd!

[@chimyshark]

Tom's basics are solid, this battle was so cool, PJ's like the only one who can keep up with all the basics who doesn't care enough to just use hard tricks against Tom so we finally got to see Tom pull some of his secret tricks out of his bag! all those 360 flips!

[@santrefosty1131]

o didn't know Tom had that last trick

[@santrefosty1131]

o didn't know Tom had that last trick

[@shauqhie]

That, my friend is one of the sickest trick to end a game of S.K.A.T.E.

[@yearssknerdopsurviver]

WOW!

[@crondigady]

Taking down Pj Ladd is nothing to sneeze at. Very similiar flatground styles in terms of their command and consistency. Pj has more of a "weird" side but no one got out of line so to speak. This, in my opinion, is a perfect game of skate coming from a spectator.

[@santrefosty1131]

dam that last trick tho

[@tomasjenco5609]

haha the heelflip rocketman!

[@dandrechesterfield5411]

Tom Penny I mean Tom Asta killed it!!

[@jasondashney]

Exactly. He's got the updated Tom Penny 1995 style.

[@justicemurphy23]

I really thought pj was gonna all the way this year 😪 I still think Shane oneil will win it.

[@ImSwadefr]

Cepeda all the way

[@justicemurphy23]

No watch out for Shane O'neil I'm telling everyone now.

[@TheShadowGangstaBoss]

ThatSkaterJustice He lost lol

[@justicemurphy23]

That comment was before the match

[@bwxkcastro7675]

Ta cada vez mais foda

[@Big_Slick]

Asta's style, my god

[@radeodreams]

this guys is like mirros, same style in cloths and skating

[@chrisandluke3496]

nice

[@BQS3GAMEING]

Tom when you have to fight god. May my 🙏 be with you

[@jsm4real]

After winning two batb in a row..... PJ was over it.

[@PatThomas.]

Tom's back 3. Fucking hell

[@dankdumpling7191]

Tom has the best back 3 I ever seen

[@skulleagletartat]

3:58...what a badass.

[@KratosMayhem]

Why does the Berrics call it a Nollie FS 180 Inward Heelflip?Its just a Nollie FS Bigspin Heelflip.I don't think they would have called it a Nollie BS 180 Varial Heelflip if Tom did it BS.They do the same thing with Fakie BS Bigspin Heelflips and call them Half cab Inward Heelflips.I'm not understanding these new trick names now a days.Good game between Tom and Pj though.I wanted Tom to win but expected Pj to so I was surprised Tom won.

[@thegalaxy737]

I wish there were batb womens...

[@Osiris3657]

+Unlimited Crew the most advanced trick in that competition would be like a switch kickflip

[@ianturnbow7011]

+Osiris3657 You obviously have never seen Trevor Colden skate. Best lesbian in the game.

[@claudiosoto7668]

Ian Turnbow ayy lmao!

[@alshammary4725]

ZuñigaFilms 1 ب

[@caleb-gw8oo]

Ian Turnbow switch tre flip then

[@bradycraig8437]

Tom’s kickflip 💦

[@MuramatsuSk8Clips]

Knew this one was gonna be good.

[@murkyprod95]

Chris Cole on Plan B? I've been lost...

[@DevoltrixAlpha]

[@SchiebfightTuning]
