@@Tenncup76 dog, there’s two sides to every story, and this has been addressed. Tony himself acknowledges that he was likely not the first to do the trick. Just the first in competition. And I know there’s question about whether or not the xgames officials were gatekeeping tas from competing, but look into what he was going thru during the time. He broke his back and his face, and was barely on the rebound at the time of that contest. Nothing was stolen from anyone. It’s like saying if I do the biggest kickflip that I stole the trick from Rodney.

Eddie and Moto’s runs were way more technical, balanced and steezy, in my opinion. Tbh I’m glad the judges aren’t rewarding tight spins that happen mostly below the coping, otherwise skating will go the path of roller blading and figure skating-where the best spinner wins. Now if the kid can build a line out beyond that like Shawn White, well, then he deserves to win.

Yes, that run seemed a bit underscored. He should at least have gotten the bronze, maybe the silver. He has been doing the same tricks for years, though. Maybe that have something do do with it.

I honestly think the showboating was made a bigger deal than it is. He's a kid who is the only person in the world who can land a 1080 on a vert ramp. Of course, he's going to get cocky.

I am a master of vert on XL and i specifically watch this and its just a glitch in the matrix to be honest- at least from my side of the game of life. 37 years of watching vert and not once have I ever said this trick could win contests as an ender if all you did was normal grab back n fortch bs to fs. and he did it 5th trick

i ran all the way down stairs to my car to bang my skateboard on the ground after motos first round, one of the best ive ever seen

I understand that technical skills are also highly valued, however, given that Gui is out here doing 900s in his runs cleanly but only scoring 80s is weird. It's a very specific skill that rarely anyone else can do at all, let alone in a run, and that should count for something significant. Moto's run as well, while comprised of moves he's done before, was still incredibly impressive and very clean. That first run by Moto was absolutely everything; this was questionable judging at best, not sure what happened here.

Yes, as most were saying in the commnents, the judging was very suspect.

I remember I was 13 back in mid 80 s I could hang with the big boys on the vert ramp in my town . It’s a feeling u can’t describe to skate big ramp at a young age . U feel like a king until u hang up on the Copin and spill to to flats and get injured like I did

Beasts. These runs are killer

Dude did a 900 and got an 80. I can’t with this.

How can judges possibly judge tricks if they can't even do it themselves? When your judging the best people on the cutting edge of innovation in a discipline like this, the only people that are even remotely valid judges are their current peers. I doubt all the judges can throw 900's in the middle of their run everytime or 540 impossible variations whatever the heck thing moto shibata does.

Wow... the judges definitely had some sort of bias.

Holy Smokes Moto's first run.

Moto Shibata 6:55 - thrilling and stylish

Elliot Sloan's airs should be the minimum height, not the biggest. Dudes should be going 10 to 14 on the reg.

Gui Koury landed his 900 just under coping. Love the skating, not the commentary.

Moto's first run was the best run of the competition. Gui was underscored but I think once you have a rep for being a "spinner" its hard to get rid of that rep. He's also not going very high on his more technical airs.

Moto killed it!

Gui and Moto were robbed

tony hawks 900 has become a childs play thing

if ballerinas had wheels.. they would be moto shibata.

Why did the judges hate Gui and Moto so much? Vinicius is going to be a beast once he gets pubes.

What’s with the judges not being able to name any of the actual tricks? Look at X Games footage from 20 years ago and they’ll shout out every trick within a couple of seconds
