Little known fact. When moto's mother went in for her first ultrasound doctors where completely baffled as there was a kid next to what was very clearly a skateboard growing in proportion to the kid... by her second ultrasound doctors witnessed him land his first kickflip. When she went into labor..she didn't even make it to the hospital cause he cavemaned out of the uterus and by the time they found him he was on vert doing 540's and the variations too.. this is a true story

look at the womens street final. the gold run had a bail just to keep the defending gold medalist Aori Nishimura from winning gold 2 years in a row. Moto was the defending gold metalist.

i love how bob calls out the tricks

Making this the official button that Moto Shibata twice in a row won Gold (even if they didn’t make him winner in this X Games)

GuitarJozz you said it I remember watching Tony Hawk land the first 900 I remember Bucky Tony and Bob battling it out I remember when Eric koston 1 Street in Philly I remember when Travis Pastrana landed the first double backflip I remember when the first backflip was attempted Carey Hart I feel old and during those times I literally was jumping out of my seat because it was the first time people have ever seen these tricks and before that people are getting seriously hurt trying them but also you got to look at Evel Knievel 2 what he did during that time was amazing and unbelievable and Travis Pastrana it just did it with ease not too long ago in Vegas and he didn't do just one jumpy did three of Evel Knievel's jumps so the amount of progression is amazing and it's great to see people stepping it up but when I was little there wasn't a throw-away run everybody went hard every round and tried their best to learn a new trick in front of hundreds of millions of people and claim it for themselves and because of that generation we got Tony Hawk Pro Skater Matt Hoffman BMX Dave Mirra BMX the video games we're coming out left and right because during that time it was very entertaining

Top 10 comments claim Moto the winner backed by 570 likes on them. More than 50% of comments having at least one like is a complaint about the rigged judging. It’s clear that Moto Shibata got robbed his gold.

Moto's second run is hands down one of the greatest vert runs of all time, not to mention his kamikaze varial being one of the most creative and stylish original tricks to ever be landed in comp. Style, control, momentum, height, variety, inversions, flip tricks, lip tricks, spins.. What more could you ask for from this kid? It was a flawless run, a perfect 100.

I don’t even skate and I can tell Moto (and Brusco) both got absolutely robbed. Judging is hard and stressful I get it, but this is just confusing. Big respect to Moto that was insane.

Both Moto and Brusco got robbed. Both of their second runs crushed that run that Wilkins got an 89 on. Bizarre judging.

no way was Wilkins first run better than Moto.

I remember back in the day as a teenager, like 2000 or 2001, playing Tony Hawk pro skater 2 (I was obsessed even though I've never skateboarded in my life lol) and using Bucky Lasek. How freaking incredible that this guy is STILL at it! Went pro in like 1990, it's just amazing to still see him competing in 2018.

These contests should be won by who lands the most out of a list of tricks or something of that nature... not won by an opinion-based decision. That goes for dunk contests too. Instead of giving a number based on how impressed you were, the contestants should have to do specific dunks to earn points and have points deducted after an amount of attempts, and have that go on for 3 rounds, and have a freestyle round for the 4th round in which they could do any dunk they wanted like the traditional dunk contest. But just have the first 3 rounds settled by doing specific dunks so that the judges can’t give a low score for personal reasons.

Haven't watched x games vert in forever. It blows my mind to see Bucky and Sandro still competing in their forties

Sandro Dias is amazing 😉 on his 2nd trick he’s already on the other side of the ramp!

Moro got screwed by the judges

came here to learn more about competitive vert skating but gotta say I'm leaving disappointed.. even though he was done a massive disservice at least I can leave saying I discovered Moto today- that dude is fooking legendary

I remember X games really back in the day. Think it was bmx halfpipe or something. They had a camera witch they had over the halfpipe. During the replays they could freeze time and turn the image 180 degrees so they could see the riders technique. Cant remember what they called it. Wish they would do that again, cuz it was really cool!

The thing with vert skating is you get the most points for hight and clean runs. Technicality is important but landing clean and getting good hight scores alot, plus there are certain tricks which the judges want to see in order to impress them.

Can I say that no score will ever beat Bob's '01 run.. of a 98?! Just saying. Til this day.. best run !!..and loads of lip tricks and switch madness! Cheers Bob 🍻

Way back in highschool, in 2004, me and my buddies went to a demo with Andy McDonald. We had vip tickets so we were able to eat lunch with him after the demo. He was truly the coolest dude I met in my whole life. He was so damn friendly and talkative, even with us little skate rats. He told us some seriously cool stories and explained why he wasn't in Tony Hawks pro skater

What size wheels are the vert dudes riding these days? I've always found 60mm to be the ideal size. These guys look like they maybe even bigger, 62 or 65 maybe? Maybe they just look really big after watching the street dudes.

Nothing better than spending the night watching people skateboard, donchaknow?

Ok, is no one going to talk about what happened at 9:30?

Favourite skater to watch is Diaz, Father time catching up and unfortunate he never laid down a better last run even if a 900 is considered old school now. You cant award a skater Gold that never completed a run, especially when Moto was way more technical.

He on x games mode

Not a lot of people miss PLG. Many skaters have been robbed because the judges are so enamored by him. I feel bad for all of the people robbed over the years because of him.

I hate to say this...X-games vert skate judges have failed to protect the public eyes this time. Jimmy Wilkins was kinda lame today and was not even close comparing to moto and not consistent at all. 3 runs fail to finish clean even his best run. Jimmy even looks guilty on his face when he was interviewed and cant say much. The mediator like bob burnquist did his job well but failed to open his eyes and see the reality even if these people been skating the whole life hahaha.....they should have at least say something about it...Im happy Sandro Dias and Andy Macdonald skated even clean and did better.

Everyone is saying the same thing, and they’re all right. MOTO SHOULD HAVE WON. Wilkins did good, but I I really don’t understand how he got such a high score with those runs. Are the criteria for judging available to read? I just don’t understand what made his runs better, especially because he bailed during it...imo Wilkins best run deserves 75-85 tops

Motos second run shouldve been gold and clay shoudlve gotten bronze with his third run

I've been watching Moto grow over the last few years. First saw him as a tiny tiny kid barely making a foot of air in the asian x games, to one of the most interesting vert skaters around today. I think he got robbed a little bit here but the first two spots are well deserved. I'm actually a little bit disappointed in Mitchie Brusco. He's become a very conservative and unexciting skater to watch. When he was just a teen he would tackle the craziest tricks with a refreshing "why the hell not?!" attitude, but now that he wants to be taken seriously as an adult he has lost that spark that made him so interesting.

Per il 20 settembre allora?
