Seems like the judges played a little bit of favoritism here. As much as Gui overly does 900's, I still feel like his run was heavily underscored compared to Edouard's run. Edouard's run was pretty repetitive with the back to back kickflip grab spins.

The worst thing is, Elliot for sure lands those runs at home. He knows he can do them. But as soon as it’s a contest….

2 thoughts: 1. Gui's first run push progression the most out of any of the landed runs and I feel like should have won. 2. At the same time, Eddy's run, while the exact same as last year, is still unbelievably difficult and I can understand why it one. If he threw down the same line with the 900 at the end there would have been no question in my mind.

It’s tough but I think Gui gets pretty heavily underscored. There was vert best trick (vert alert) recently where he did a perfect nollie 900. They either didn’t even give him a medal or only gave him bronze which was a ridiculous robbery. The nollie was properly done too, I’ve never even thought of a nollie 9 but that was hands down the craziest trick I’ve seen on vert in years

Jason Ellis is such a good commentator. Please please keep him for all the skateboard events. He's positive and informative.

I'm only through first runs and that Eduardo guy gets a higher score than Gui?? That hand drag alone should put him low 80's. Judging ruins watching these if you're an actual skateboarder..

Hearing all the announcers heartily rooting for everyone on the last wall got me so pumped!

next year you'll know: ''if you want gold medal, you can use your hand for landing''

we need ellis and Zitser in the booth for every broadcast lol

Mind blown 🧠💯, Ellis keep bringing that stoke!

Ten point red bull helmet deduction is apparently a thing

SUPER! love when got time to watch. just makes me so happY

Gui’s 900s are a piece of performance art, he makes them look so freakin good. I think if he had waited to pull the back to back 9s for a later run it would’ve given him the win. Judges have a tendency to score early runs lower and save the higher scores for later in the comp.

They should rename this competition to x robbery games!

This event is awesome to watch, but they really need to bring back the normal mega ramp! This event was the best when it was in front of a large crowd, and especially when it used to be at Staples Center. Please @xgames bring the mega back for the fans!!!

Not sure if there was a qualifier for this event but at Xgames Japan they said he'd broke/injured his wrist/forearm badly and only recently recovered. He wasnt himself at Vert in Japan, struggled to land much and cradling the wrist after tricks, may be he chose to take time off to recover and build his confidence and execution back up

that 2nd part of the ramp is fire i didn't know they added 2 more tricks to big air.

Gui Khury got robbed. Just because you’re the first to stick a line doesn’t mean they should start scores in the 80s. If 88 is the mark for a run with 2 clean 900s and a 720 over the gap, everything else has to beat the mark to outscore It. As soon as the guy got a 91 for a run with a HAND DRAG, I was livid. Seems rigged.
