"I'm just in awe from all the great athletes here today"

[@frankglen7942]

Speechless so much talent

[@smak387]

This is a rich man's game!!!

[@StoneSkipper]

If Polo is 'the Sport of Kings' I call this 'the Sport of Rabble' lol or else the "Groundling Sport"

[@otshepengditshego2991]

🤣🤣🤣

[@gravito1573]

Hahahahhaha

[@MrHimyhimy]

It’s hilarious how this dude appears to be in great shape for a sport that has seemingly nothing to do with that, gotta respect that

[@Hotdog_pimpin]

Mr hat dado do

[@starrplayaentertainmenttm1053]

Thanks Ocho for giving these amazing athletes a platform 😆

[@NoAppellation]

We’ve entered that time with no football and no basketball, main host on vacation. Watch out for the Rock Paper Scissors competition next week.

[@twonumber22]

I'm just glad it's not Nets or Lakers content.

[@OkieDoaky]

I know they have a tetherball championship somewhere…

[@iaretheone11]

I'm sure they have tht somewhere

[@ILoveCunnilingus]

I guess you never seen Japanese Janken Queen tournament, "The Most Intense Game of Rock Paper Scissors."

[@lostpockets2227]

j just seen the RPS tournament. it was pretty intense

[@ragnarocking]

1.) Do they test for steroids? 2.) Are there cheerleaders? 3.) Why isn't this an Olympic Sport?

[@Basil4K]

1. hope so 2. needs them 3. they are cowards and afraid to do real sports

[@shaunbang]

Had I known stone skipping would be on espn I would have committed my life to becoming the best skipper ever

[@Teddypain20]

The intensity and technique tho!!!

[@mwmw5895]

Now this is a sport I can get behind lol

[@deadlygam3r]

I need Cotton McKnight and Pepper Brooks commentating this !!!!

[@wilfordbrimleypranks]

*PEPPER NEEDS NEW SHORTS*

[@Camper2625]

The 3 people clapping in the audience full sent me into a laughing fit

[@therealCanelaSweetz]

Lmfao “Did you see the rock skipping highlights”

[@BravestDawg101]

Now This is what I subbed for.

[@-Stinky_Pinky]

Now THIS is cool! i didnt even know this was a thing. 👍

[@ricksdr]

And here I am starting a business when I could have lived my dream! Mom said I can't skip rocks forever ugh if she could see this now.

[@midnightcoolcat2890]

I’ve spent more time watching this in one day then all the WNBA seasons combined.

[@yallsome5213]

That won't stop ESPN from trying to force it down your throat.

[@jmagana166]

Same! This is actually entertaining…

[@alexvswrld]

🤣🤣🤣

[@Lee-One]

Okay bro… that’s not a good achievement tho… Nah I’m jk

[@SteezyMcCheezie]

life skills that have real world application

[@rashb3994]

This popped up right after watching USA basketball gold highlights, and though it's such a big contrast it somehow feels just as intense. Like some of these skips are really impressive! I could actually watch more of this.

[@alienJIZ1990]

Let me tell you, rock skipping like this hasn't occurred since the Helsinki episode of 1919, and I think we all remember how THAT turned out!

[@shaunbang]

Love that rock skipping is on espn but even more that it’s on ESPN the Ocho

[@goodtimes1046]

"This is a rich man's sport." That got me, these commentators sound like they have a dream job.

[@UpGradeTutoringSolutions]

Bold strategy Cotton

[@pmlonghorn]

These judges are intense..

[@JoeBoKnows]

Need to get the movie trivia trivia schmoedown on the ocho. Competitive movie trivia and so much more

I’ve fell in love with skipping. I have a little spot I skip at and just get away

[@SUPADRE5]

Finally a sport for me

[@comickid7843]

Is it just me or does it sound like the commentators are being sarcastic throughout this whole thing.

[@bowserx8399]

Idk if it’s because it’s 2 In the morning but this is relaxing to watch.

[@rosediddynorelation4824]

I was entertained

[@cavalierfan1995]

if you remember espn in its infancy this is what they would show at 2:00 am

[@CoreyFromMinnesota]

1:51 I can't believe the commentator wouldn't stop talking about rocks during that skip lol

[@vicfontaine5130]

first professional corn hole now rock skipping, what else am I going to discover on KZbin

[@andrecheng7303]

It just awes me how they manage to count the skips

[@mitchvankesteren6771]

“It’s amazing that these athletes don’t cut their hands on the sharp edges of these rocks………. Pure concentration” 🤦🏻‍♂️

[@metalmachinemachina]

theyre gonna figure out the infinite rotation

[@Chris-wq3pe]

[@KatBlskwn777]

"they call him the spiderman" or "spiderman ohmer" lmao😹😹😹

[@garebear422]

[@arealgoodguy]

ESPN 8:The Ocho+ premium content

[@ultra1000]

How do I apply for the stone skipping facts job?

[@thomaswilson305]

Imagine telling your wife or girlfriend you gotta go practice to compete. Or you gotta stay in shape.

[@craigfisherman2880]

These commentators are hilarious

[@DadBot-_-]

Lol im impressed...i barely get 4 skips 😂

[@tmillz120]

[@ajthelwell6357]

Let me guess, you saw this on a short and didnt believe this wasnt a troll? Yea, same here dude!

[@Megobs]

I have skipped rocks way too much when they’re identicao to these

[@jeepneygang]

These guys are dripping with sarcasm the whole time

[@BAC494]

Sandle game on lock

[@DaHuntersTrophy]

They make competitions out of anything nowadays.

[@sabes44]

[@user-dj9zt2cc8v]

How do they count it

[@ezbread14]

I thought this had something to do with Chad Johnson 😂😂

[@KrillKutta]

This makes me so upset as the idea for competition rock skipping just popped in my head 😢 but dope lmao this is a sport I can get behind

[@danial700]

When Olympic?

[@palmettolockzzyardi2235]

Yo I do thos all the time wat the heaven on earth!!!! I've skipped a rock on Winston lake 60x

[@Hotdog_pimpin]

Doubt that. My cousin is a pro skipper from Scandinavia and he only skipped 57 times

[@haywood0457]

[@marcc16]

Math is hard

[@HRucker]

This is were we are in the world of sports 🥺🥺🥺😩😩😩😫😫😫😢😢😢😭😭😭💩💩💩

[@agoosoriano903]

Girlfriend: “he’s probably out getting drunk with some chicks”

[@SkinnyVinnie]

88 rock skips is the record, holy F. Even that’s impressive, despite the fact that ur competing in Pro Rock Skipping. Let’s be real, they can’t work a real job and compete at the upper echelon of the brutal unforgiving sport, only the real dedicated will ever amount to anything and be seen on the Ocho, lol! 🤯😜😂

[@user-ud4fi8np9d]

Last person to touch that rock maybe

[@Katpheesh]

i did not know there is a competition for throwing rocks

[@TheRealDarrylStrawberry]

i looked this up just to see if it was a thing. Of course...

[@krisko713daclarke]

ESPN 8?

[@mattlikespandas7019]

So I can go pro at 14 poggers

[@janky477]

The fact that ESPN uploaded this makes it very hard for me to tell if it's real, or if it's taken straight from the Dodgeball movie.

[@GLSCvideo]

Its real, we produced this.

[@erikakerber3258]

Do they actually make money rewards ?? 😅

[@walterwhite19855]

ESPN 8, THE OCHO is real?

[@donnie9001]

I didn't know $10 was a rich man...

[@Lord_Clarke]

Lml now I need to know how much the Winner earns

[@CountryKirby.]

😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

[@DSeeKer]

is this serious? it sounds like the narrators are mocking it all the time

[@dissawilson8650]

i did more

[@pappadeux9159]

Please tell me this is real .....

[@daveohmer2261]

This is real.

[@crujones2849]

Bret saberhagen would destroy this guy

[@Clips_36]

This is really a sport?

[@tacothetown9947]

I’m having a real hard time believing this lol

[@kron277]

Me too

[@EnviroDouglas]

I identify as a rock and find this utterly appalling 😂😂😂

[@WobbleWobbleJay]

Why are you watching this?

[@Moonninja420]

10$ for pros. Lol

[@FinancialDestruction]

that water is not meant to skip stones on, terrible place to skip stones

[@MisterMxyzptlk1972]

Not a sport, not athletes ESPN.

[@andresjvillanueva]
