I love watching this on KZbin So I can fast forward all the bs 🙂‍↔️

[@sageyowns26]

fr they’re too nonchalant, i don’t mind ads ik they need revenue, but half the video is just filler

[@dubnicko5747]

dude this video is probably only like 30 minutes long when you cut all that

[@321skaater]

They are inspired by ufc, ans ads and show its how sls stay alive kiddo

[@DirtyDirkDiggler]

You don’t like Backside’s? Damn, not even a Backside 360?

[@gollese]

Wdym? These a chill, i find the olympic games bit meh though but atleast we get to see skateboarding!

[@hipisuit]

Skating starts @7:43

[@user-ik2xo7qb4t]

thx bruv

[@dlmperformanceandracing]

Much appreciated, friend.

[@bunneyosnail1014]

idk that switch frontside flip north was actually insanity he caught it so early too these guys are nuts

[@japhy6536]

these are the best commentators - they're actually WATCHING the skating and TALKING ABOUT THE SKATING

[@no_name4aday]

Joslin got robbed landing 2 early 😒 he shoulda bailed till the 9 door was open and results be different. Never be the first to throw darts 😢

[@jonathonredfearn3632]

Joslin robbed again. Who would've thought. Both his first 2 tricks were 9s and you can't convince me otherwise

[@SAsh-zg6ln]

Which doofus created the landing area? Way too short, bud. Needed to be extended easily 10 feet vertically

[@ShouldHaveBeen]

And the run up.

[@explicittruth1471]

Would love to see Chris win

[@DJ211D]

His time will come this year. He's been so close too many times

[@MeLast-rk5vp]

Jordan should get a Jordan deal when he grinds up defines air

[@user-yo9xc3jj1d]

All greats in this final 💯💯 Louie,Chris,Deshawn,Nijah,louie & Yuto. To crazy💯🔥🔥

[@kylechampton]

I was like, huh? Am I the only one whose seen this already?!

[@damiantrevino1554]

Love that they have Sean malto as a commentator . He knows how to skate so he knows what to look for 🤟🏻

[@unseenclass1]

Being I guess an older dude. I grew up with commericals on TV longer then these. I don't think there too many adds. You all just just can't wait a second anymore

[@drmayne2071]

That Ollie north at the end should have been a bit higher based on creativity, the sheer risk of trying it in a contest, how unique it is, I don't know how long it would take any of those skaters to land that just during a session as good in a contest it's was just so surprising. Glad he got in the 9 ub though.

[@PlanetKaosIRL]

Was suppose to go to this but was too busy working. Looked awesome tho. Love when comps come to Vegas 🙌

[@Bro-ky4hn]

It was 100 bucks in the course sucked I'm glad I didn't go

[@PlanetKaosIRL]

@@Bro-ky4hn good call, appreciate that. Hopefully the next one is better.

[@Bro-ky4hn]

@@PlanetKaosIRL check out the one last year they had every time someone got a nine the foothill band would play

[@PlanetKaosIRL]

@@Bro-ky4hn hell yeah 👍. Awesome. I’ll watch it. Next one is August 31. Might try to go

[@Deletedcommentfactory]

This athletic event brought to you by the manufacturers of various poisons, both physical and mental.

[@coincollectorchase]

Some good skating, I don't watch football or soccer, I watch Skateboarding. When Chris turned around, I just call that a Late Revert and I think that's a trick because it's a clear clean bold move on the board and I can't do that yet switch but working on switch stuff more often

[@messythemanofficial5956]

salute to Nyjah , he deserved that win . Then finished it with a fun bigflip down the doubleset ...No secret , he is dominating everything !! I hope he kills it at the Olympics for America !! Salute to the G.o.a.t.

[@turbo8481]

Hey pros. Here's a little gap with a weird little rail. Do your thing! 🤦‍♂️ this is just weird to me.

[@Watson-te3ik]

My guess is that it’s supposed to be the downtown la library gap but it’s a tiny version of it … didn’t someone Ollie up it ?

[@kevstaa7121]

That rail looks butter

[@turbo8481]

@@Watson-te3ik prolly lol

[@Bro-ky4hn]

They need to hold it in a bigger arena

[@tek_tube23]

Yoshi Tanenbaum's lazerflips deffently give him a run for his money, still dashawn is a beast 🙌

[@PalNok-nm6fv]

Yeah 🎉 Big win 😎hats on !

[@contingentone]

Congrats Ninja !

[@koolaidsalad]

gotta say i liked these judges more than some of the recent ones. couple results seemed a little low but i would rather see that than everybody having 9s every time they land overall very consistent and i personally appreciate that

[@drmayne2071]

I think the clear hardflip should have been scored better than the hand touch Lazer flip.

[@flo4710]

Let's go Nyjah Huston!!

[@adrain182]

literally just watched this on bumass rumble yesterday took you long enough

[@pedrodurty47]

Keep playing with my boy Nyjah man!!!! My boy never disappoints

[@crhymezakaceelomilwaukee3698]

This went tf down and i fkn loved that Fakie Tre Flip Backside Lipslide tha switch Tre n Fakie Tre were on point but yah endless amounts of RAW DOPE TY SHREDDERS FOR THA YEARS OF FOOTY N PUTTIN IT ON FOR MI 1ST LOVE AKA SKATEBOARDING. FYI A CAB FLIP BACK LIP ISN'T ACTUALLY ALL THAT ISH FR NYJAH GOT A 9.4 so it's saaaaad tbh.

[@sk8mysterion]

I have been watching every SLS event ever since it started in 2010. This stressfull 1h commercial is such a weird format..like those stressful in between contests a few years ago with the random judging .... I don't know dude 😂.

[@treydavis1465]

Did anyone else see Antonio hum perfectly with the song at 31:22

[@jerms777]

Posted this so late we're already at the olympics. Atleast post when its fresh

[@jpnz]

Damn that Durao woke me up

[@NineteenEighty8]

Yuto, Nyjah, Jordan, and Joslin in the same group? Jesus! The parks are getting ridiculous. Almost zero room to land anything and roll-away.

[@humanbean3]

i thought nyjah was gonna get robbed with that pretty low score for the nollie heel crook. glad to see he took it

[@pdxraves]

Tim O just spitting on the mic.

[@benjaminterrell2221]

can some one explain why chris joslin got 8.3 on his trick down the big set and Deiki got 6 something. Does't that seem like some problematic judging?

[@Cloudy222]

Deiki landed it and rolled away still in switch, Joslin reverted. So they scored him .3 higher than Joslin. Not problematic, actually the leased problematic scoring decision in sls history tbh.

[@Mrjamel-uk2ev]

Nice

[@quinndavis]

I ollied it in ‘99. Weird, I never saw the Gonz footy?

[@quinndavis]

They should’ve made it just like the original. Rail is a cool addition.

[@TronBons]

Such a weird event space.. its like having a competition in a VFW Hall...

[@sageyowns26]

i wonder how much more views SLS would get if half these videos weren’t filler nonsense….you guys can’t spend an hour editing the stream for youtube???

[@sageyowns26]

still love SLS and the videos i just know skateboarding could reach a bigger audience than it is, same with BMX and a lot of other extreme sports

[@awbarqs5935]

where is the marching band?

[@johnpaxton3098]

Congratulations Nyjah glad to see your reclaim that 1st spot trophy

[@bullowner7157]

Yall remember when nyjah thought he was white. Straining his hair

I miss the bright colored wheels seems like everyone runs white wheels now

[@bcoyne12345]

Braden Hoban skates black wheels, Pink/blue Ricta whirlwinds were my favourite

[@jimmyloughnan9656]

White is best that’s why

[@PlanetKaosIRL]

Faking tre scoring higher than Yuto’s Tre 50/50??? Nah that’s cap. Great contest but judging was a little wonky. Enjoyed tho 🎉

[@JSlice-gk5br]

agreed

[@robertbarnhart7791]

Fakie tre with that much run up is way harder. Also Jordan could tre flip 50 that with his eys closed

[@tylerriggs95]

Fakie tre is wayyy harder and everyone knows it

[@messythemanofficial5956]

Nike has done so much for skateboarding in the last decade ..Im a huge fan . Growing up I hated brands like Nike .. They weren't part of the culture I don't think until Bam Margera put them on or they put him on what have you . I still love brands like Van's and traditional skate shoes . But one can't deny how much attention Nike has brought to the sport . I feel like Nike is a great deal todo with Skateboarding being in the Olympics now ...Even if they're weren't interested in skateboarding in it's Hay day , I feel they have more then made up for that by popularizing the sport and creating SLS league and making some what now I feel are some of the best skate shoes ...I am back and fourth between Etnies and Nike for my favorite skate shoe

*Ollie South, Paul.

[@claudioito9708]

Ohhh man....Jessica ia a pretty woman....amazingly beautiful woman !!!

[@sotografik]

Love SLS, but Apex is sorta of a miss. I think we would all rather see ledge runs stage. Apex is already sort of done during the best trick part of the regular SLS competition and the lack of crowd is just ok. something to think about.

[@victortrotciv]

Nyjah even caught his cap while doing the back flip back lip

[@jxkecxrty]

maybe a little flat bank or 1/4 for a return instead of roll into nothing haha

[@mrniceguy199318]

That 8.4 from Louie Lopez was over scored and messed up the whole competition🤦🏾‍♂️

giving jordan an 8.5 for that super sloppy and hand on the ground switch tre was ridiculous... like wtf

switch heel to switch crook down rail was scored waaaaaaay toooo low

[@brandonritchie106]

This is not new

[@pokestarhero]

Totally under scored Durao, flip to a late ollie north. 9.0 Never been done before? Why that score? At least give him the highest sls score so our main boys can get that type of trick behavior and clean up that trick. They need to know combining tricks in one trick is the new big score. Just how clean and big can you make it. style.

[@justinsavoie4872]

Daewon and chris haslem can do lazers better then Jordan in my opinion

that halfcab flip bs smith to back lip from Nyjah was never a 9.4...toooooooo sketchy.....

lol common trick and got 8.9?,comeon judge,stop picking your fav sk8ers,and the commentator is the most annoying af..!!,a 10 for no style trick,i hope they been replace by a better person.

[@kyleward31]

did you honestly just say sean malto is annoying...he knows more about skating than you mate

The 10 was clearly sarcastic… you just didn’t get it. These two are the best commentators out there.

@@kyleward31I mean skateboarding isn’t rocket science, pretty easy to know tricks and difficulty’s 😂. You don’t need to be a “pro” to know the game. Malto a good commentator tho 🎉

@@PlanetKaosIRL i know you dont i call a lot of scores correctly myself when watching but my point still stands if anyone knows malto does he has skated these he understands the pressure and what the skaters may or may not need to get down to get ahead. huge knowledge of skating and of his fellow peers who are in the competition
