Do a drink tear list!!
Jack The Human
DO A FIT TIER LIST LOL
Badminton Temper
Happy new year. Surprised you don’t like Deedz. Seems kinda arbitrary.
Pete Currie
Man, caught in my feelings here a bit about all this Gilbert h8... listen to his Bunt interview man, he's such a nice young chap. Just cause he wears oversized $300 pants, with the wobbliest sw manuals doesn't mean he deserved these shots lol
Daniel Janeček
Happy new year! What were fx some honorable mentions which didnet get in the 20?
Jake
I think the heelflip nosebonk from louie with the music was just so nice to watch🤭
Austin Manuel
I know how to flirt with men, but also choke them platonically in a combat setting.
JoeFish
Yes! Please worship friendship!!
Greg Lutzka
Do you know karate?
Jacob
yeah it kind of works with the rascal thing he has going on, black ninjas take was pretty funny tho lol
Coinstar
oh all good of course sir. I agree I think most people have a general sense of when it's too much, but there must be a reason many people really like t funk's style while still admitting that he is slightly exaggerated
Austin Manuel
You guys can quit messaging me too. Yes, I am the famous Austin Manuel from having the top comment on GH Lincoln skatepark review, 2nd on the pocket msg piece and like 5th on the jenkem vid. Fan of The Year.
christopher
if you haven’t already you should do a review on worship friendship/boyish.
Nice Great
hope eveyrone had a good christmas
Jacob
Yeah, i get you. I still think style is something that can’t be faked. Learning how to present your skating in the most appealing way is important, but if you try to hard or do some obv fake shit (flailing a certain way) it’s going to show (Elijah Berle). There are tall guys with great style like B.A or Nate Jones, so being tall is hardly the issue. Imo K.White just never pushed himself hard enough to become fluid, and adapt a good style. So he just looks clumsy. I think there’s an important difference between faking it and learning how you personally look the best on a board. Not trying to win any argument here, just my thoughts & good convo :~]
gabriel rodgers
Please do
Kason Haar
How you feeling about a Rob & Big episode review?
Coinstar
if you don't think jerry hsu was adding a little extra spice you're trippin ha ha ha. I think that some people do seem to naturally move a certain way that is aesthetically pleasing (btw a lot of it has to do with body type/build), but for those who don't, I don't think they should be relegated to looking like Kevin white (btw who's simply too tall). I think we all have to learn how to control our arms and stop them flailing, or get them to flail a certain way (more controversial just testing the waters)
Evan Carlson
definitely tfunk #1 tho that shit was fucked
Evan Carlson
idk how tf TJIF wasnt on this tbh
Nick
Deedz is good, I like him. Otherwise I agree.
Jacob
I guess my previous ”unpolished” remark kind works in favor with what you’re saying. HOWEVER, hear me out. Since style is such a redeeming factor in todays ever so saturated landscape, people end up exaggerating some mannerisms in order to stand out, think; wacky safety arms, tfunks powerslide/leg tweaks, the please notice my loose trucks steez, dab/frozen landings etc… Now think about those timeless styles like: Arto, Jerry Hsu, Mike Caroll, Stranger and not to go full old head (cuz I’m not) I think Vincent Touzery is a good modern day example of this. All of the above never force you to notice the ”style”. They just skate, and the natural asthetics make it look good. Now Jeff is the opposite of this, everything just looks bad and akward. Always has and always will because he just skates the way he feels the most natural. The asthetics don’t (traditionally atleast) work in his favor, so it translates to dogshit style. We dont ALL have to fake it, but it can help you bait steezelord rep. I feel like Heitor’s sometimes just feeling himself too much, and ends up adding unecesarry extra sauce. I think fake steez is corny, and super overdone in skating right now.
Coinstar
I take your addition kindly but I think the point stands firm. we all have to fake it a little, people just have different thresholds. for me, heitor is right on the border, kinda sick and sometimes very corny. Everyone loves t funk (as do i) and he obviously "fakes" it to some degree, people just like the way he fakes it, they BELIEVE it. helps that he's short
Anthony
thank god i'm not alone in not seeing the appeal to Gilbert Crockett also
Anthony
the simile of louie being the nice plain girl had me dead lmfao
Jacob
So I’d use someone like Kevin White instead. His style is more unpolished in a way that can be achieved by just not feeling good on your board that day.
Jacob
I feel like Jeffs style is so bad that it’s the complete polar opposite to ”good style”. Meaning that in order to achieve it any other way than just having it, you would have to fake it.
Cole
id trade heitor for wade d
Domenico Leandri
Mark Humienik with first part in the bronze tv channel video was my favorite part of this year and i think he’s only flow or possibly AM for Quasi. Very good style and trick selection.
Bren
Ben “chadbourne”
migi
Do you need the game cube controller to play melee on pc?
Coinstar
hyperbolic hot take: if nobody faked their style we'd all look like Jeff dechesere
1
Idk are nicks as loose as deedz’s?
sex_champion
X makes more sense than ten when they’ve had like less than 5 videos lol
1
I don’t think I ever watched it on stream, I will do that next stream
sex_champion
Boserio getting a pass?
1
I can provide a full analysis if need be
1
I knew this was going to come up. I’m not anti loose trucks in general, I just don’t think deedz is that guy (max is)
Larry David's Prius
Hot take with the hating on the loose trucks for Deedz, but MP is a fave? Hmmm, some may talk.
Ted
no disrespect to nick matthews; he's an amazing skater. I am just biased. ok scew it, he stays and Deedz is off.
Zachary
the one-two punch of wade and tiago to open that define video is insane, both parts are all timers for me wade is a fucking machine
Aden
he’s still in their ig bio
Skatepark Reality
Nick Matthew's venture part was unreal.
templerun69
Also a review/vod watch of the new Daniel Dent vid would go crazy my legend - unless I missed it in the Xmas stream?
templerun69
We need a whole video of skater to smash character comparisons - Louie as Mario is too perfect
Show us ya Stussy
Deedz going to sci-fi
Zac Signorino
He fits the limo vibe perfectly imo
Kason Haar
I ❤️ Heitors!
JP
Hugo has to do his part to get Ville on Limo. Maybe he’s the heavy hitter they need to level up.
Aiden S
Louie Lopez is definitely the mario of skateboarding
CRAP247.COM
Quick question: just checked the frog team roster on the site, was Evan Ever on the team list? Bc he's not now, so he's either Still flow or he's... GONE! :0 POG
Austin Manuel
Super duper extreme filler content right here.

Slap linky?
Matijas Karsbo
This is off topic: I think ville wester and polar got beef, both don’t follow eachother on insta anymore and there is some shit on slap about it
1
He has teenager swag
1
He appears to be doing all the right things but in my opinion is a totally of the moment skater. Everything he does is designed to be liked and trendy at this moment in time, so I think he’s boring. If you’re right and I’m hating for no reason he will get a good board sponsor now that he’s off enjoi.
Armin Halvadžić
He hates on Deedz just to make content. Everybody likes him,so I got to stand out by not liking him lol
b60231
gilbert crocket is the skateboarding version of the artisan coffee barista with a leather butcher's apron
Galen Knowles
Wait yeah wtf how was Wade (and Tiago and Carlos) not on here at all? Guess it’s not the quartersnacks demo but Wade’s part was transcendent. Top 3 of the year.
Mike Wazowski
not saying it's worthy of top 20 but stu 04 that part on john wilson's youtube is slept on imo, I revisited it a couple times throughout the year and it's really insane, definitely similar to t funk's skating
Mike Wazowski
real asf for the ville part esp since it was his first part after turning pro. at the same time tho he has deedz's big pants loose trucks flow which is pretty hit or miss imo, has some dope tricks and great spots but sometimes you just end up with a sketchy clip that feels like other skaters would have redo'd
1
They can both go to hell, I hate the huge wheels loose trucks thing it’s just asking for wheel bite lol
DurtDick Burmingsworth
I feel like Heitor's steez is faker than Deedz. I like the loosey goosey trucks. Saftey hands make more sense when the trucks are so loose.
Donny Toothpicks
Shoutout Ted for reminding me Randy Farkus dropped this year, amending my list above to include that as well as Rowan’s part in the February Baker video, Figgy in recent Baker video, Mami Tezuka’s pro Blood Wizard part, and Franky Villani in DEFINE
coliseum
Much respect king but please it's Hockey TEN not "x"
JP
Also, re: keeping a list. I did that in 2022 as an experiment by making a youtube playlist for skate videos for the year. I just added videos to the playlist if it was decent after I watched. Then I'd drag the videos up and down to rank them when I was bored every month or two. That way, I had a list going all year, and I think recency bias didn't warp my thinking as much.
JP
Gustav yes. But really Jake Anderson. I feel like I'm going crazy with that not on there. Nick Garcia too...
Ethan Silvestri
Makes me so sad that u don’t like deedz
Josh Calvo
I believe this is the most villainous Joa has been in a minute
Greg Lutzka
Yes thank you Gilbert Crockett always looks like he’s trying super hard to make the name Gilbert cool
zacho
Nick boserio aswell imo
nollieheelnoseslide
Couldn’t agree more about Crockett and Deedz. No interest in either of those dudes at all. T-Funk probs my #1 that’s all I’d say
angcient_rock
hey,sorry for the delay. so i would replace nick, heitor, deedz, gilbert, again and again louie, and ace spanky with joseph campos, tyson peterson, rowan zorilla, ville wester, roman gonzales and jamie platt. kind of crazy nothing from the polar video made it. i would also bump ishod's part by a few and put t-funk's part at #1. thanks :)
Henry Degnan
I like him but critiques are valid and funny
Henry Degnan
Can't help how someone makes u feel
1
How do you feel
Henry Degnan
This is the first time I've witnessed Gilbert Crockett slander
1
I still love max but I don’t think anything he dropped this year was his best stuff
zacho
Are you not as hot on max anymore? Surprised he was that high.
Ted
I would have put Aiden Mackey Randy Farkus in there. As Donny Toothpicks said, add Kader's part as well. Drop Nick Matthews and spankys ace part.
Donny Toothpicks
Solid list, better than the original. A few I would have had somewhere in there: Joe Campos - Hockey X; Ville Wester - Sounds Like You Guys are Crushing It; Wade Desarmo - DEFINE; Kader Sylla - KaderAdidas; Lil Dre - Maxallure
Aidan Ellsworth
calling out manlet steez is so real of u
wolfman1347
