First 900 at age 7. That's 5 years max starting from barely being able to walk to having learnt one of the most difficult and dangerous tricks in the sport. Insane.
Not "so much better", I think their runs were similar, Sanchez had flip tricks, Schaar had grinds, difficult to say which one was better. I would lean towards Sanchez.
@danielsmekss6453 I think if JD had incorporated more lip tricks, he probably would have medaled. I also think his second run that he fell on probably would have stuck him on the podium.
@@Ethan-dn1wc I totally agree. Yeah, maybe not better, but I personally was more impressed with his runs. Definitely should have incorporated more lip tricks.
Amelia is so great at commentary. Knows tricks, knows statistics, knows news about parts and other competitions, knows skaters and gives all to us every time!
Hi amelia, youre really bad at this and should be replaced along with the other dope. Hope noone else has to suffer this and you find work in another field
That all may be true and I do appreciate and respect that, but the one liners after each trick attempt is rough. The combination of these two is more difficult to listen to compared to others from past comps such as Scheckler, Malto, Hawk. No corniness from those
Wow these little kids are going to take the sport so far. I'm old enough to remember watching Tony do the first 900 and changing everything. Can't believe children are just doing them first drop in these days.
When I think of Moto I think consistency, that was such a strange competition for him but wow so many youngins going WILD (and with style too!) Always was more into street and park to a lesser extent but I am happy to see vert is in a great place and has an even brighter future than ever
Remember when Vegeta sees kid Trunks go Super Saiyan and freaks out? "When did a transformation reserved for the greatest of all warriors become a child's plaything?" That's how it feels watching 10-year olds just effortlessly nail 900s.
That body varial 9 was unreal what a competition that was Ps I said yesterday amilia brodka is the best skateboarding commentator. Im sorry she is the best commentator in any sport
So I know I've been pretty critical on wilkins, hawk ueda etc over the past few years Because what has been going at the x games. Now I understand the right skaters were podiumed correctly this year ( at thier 2ndary contest) but now it seems wilkins who could always land his signature linear run but now bailed on all attempts...... I'm not saying yet that this is show but that's like tom Brady throwing 4 picks in a game when he never does.
Lotta bails hate to blame the ramp but it looked small to me🤔. Wondering the diff in size from Tony's ramp? Overall great job everyone thanks X Games for supporting vert it's crazy to me that vert wasn't in the Olympics..Prob a blessing in disguise😎🤙
Last run did not worth to take JDs spot and it was obviously for everyone and I hate how the comentators set the scene for the robbery saying its worthing podium before the score in a lame atempt to manipulate the crowds opinion , I start to get sick of this favoritsm , F the judges and the coruption
Amelia's commentary shows awareness of skateboarding culture. I appreciate that she is able to call the tricks, especially in the Men's Street comp. The guy sounds like if you told an AI to do an impression of Jesse Pinkman if he was into Monster instead of Meth, and then fed the AI stats about only the following information: How old the riders are, how many medals from X games they "own" (a weird way to phrase that), and contextual statements about the competition. I understand the job needs to be done, someone has to state objective information in these competitions but I really wish he would provide a less white washed commentary. What is the opposite of color commentary? He's got that. Credit where credit's due: I wouldn't know Amelia's name if he didn't do such a good job of saying it. She could work on that.
The commentators sound like they are bored( Hahaha). They are too wooden sounding like they are hosting a Golf tournament. " Get in the hole...zzzzzzzzz".
W JD!!!! Killed it bro... Didn't get podium but your still a legend buddy.. Congrats to all the skaters!!!
Congratulations X-Games, Gui and all the skaters! This show was insane!
HOW IS JD so good? Got Dayumn!
Gui's height and variety has come a long way, happy he was able to put in two solid runs and get his X-games vert gold.
Ah man I was stoked to watch Moto, Elliot, Jimmy trio
First 900 at age 7. That's 5 years max starting from barely being able to walk to having learnt one of the most difficult and dangerous tricks in the sport. Insane.
Kids nowdays on a different level! 🔥
Parabéns Gui seu monstro
I love me some Scharr, but JD's run was so much better. Sorry you didn't get podium JD.
Not "so much better", I think their runs were similar, Sanchez had flip tricks, Schaar had grinds, difficult to say which one was better. I would lean towards Sanchez.

Big spin back lip, curtains. JD is an awesome skater but adter a kickflip varial 540 you do a bigspin back lip, you go ahead in scire.
I agree lip tricks are pretty unimpressive to me but the only vert ramp I've ever ridden was made of snow so I'm probably biased towards airs.
Here for the JD support.
so crazy that tom, eddie, and moto are like the seasoned vets now
Thank you very much 😊.
JD amazing skating, you’ve come along way congratulations!
Ao with that 1st run. These little kids are unbelievable
Amelia is so great at commentary. Knows tricks, knows statistics, knows news about parts and other competitions, knows skaters and gives all to us every time!
shes not gary tho. maybe her and gary together would balance each other out.
Anyone besides that Damned Gary Rodgers.
Hi amelia, youre really bad at this and should be replaced along with the other dope. Hope noone else has to suffer this and you find work in another field
I love Brandon graham
That all may be true and I do appreciate and respect that, but the one liners after each trick attempt is rough. The combination of these two is more difficult to listen to compared to others from past comps such as Scheckler, Malto, Hawk. No corniness from those
Vert is the best. JD is killing it.
Gui vc é demais parabéns que orgulho🇧🇷❤
gui just won the first of what will probably end up being many many vert golds
Wow these little kids are going to take the sport so far. I'm old enough to remember watching Tony do the first 900 and changing everything. Can't believe children are just doing them first drop in these days.

Always was more into street and park to a lesser extent but I am happy to see vert is in a great place and has an even brighter future than ever
Let's go JD! ❤️🤟
Gui khury manda muito
É Brasil
how good theese kids are. wow.
This was great !! Lets get some vert sticks for height...
Keep going JD!
Congrats Tom
i think jimmy and moto are the most fun to watch, too bad they had off nights, but they'll be back
JD is seriously good. Man he got robbed!
Joy Division is excellent. 😎
I predict JD vs Gui is going to push vert to new heights
Not even a prediction already a reality.
The older ones gave up, gave it to the youngsters this year!
Remember when Vegeta sees kid Trunks go Super Saiyan and freaks out? "When did a transformation reserved for the greatest of all warriors become a child's plaything?" That's how it feels watching 10-year olds just effortlessly nail 900s.
^^^The perfect analogy doesn't exis.....🤯
I was wondering the same thing I see these 10-year-old kids beating these 30 year-old guys I'm old-school I remember when Tony Hawk did his first 720😂
Bring BMX vert back!!!!
Sadly there aren't really many athletes who would compete in it.
YES!!!!
But as the other commenter mentioned what they did, I can’t deny I have wondered the same thing for years
Awesome 👍
JD from DaBoyz ?!
Himself!
jd is the future, he has tony's tech and hosoi's height and style all at once
Tom with the Faces Skateshop tee !
Amelia is the best commentator
New generation is f*cking insane
That body varial 9 was unreal what a competition that was
Ps I said yesterday amilia brodka is the best skateboarding commentator. Im sorry she is the best commentator in any sport
Jds there so awesome!!!!!
Gui Khuri orgulho do esporte.
no coment. just WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOW
Was there no Women's vert?
Yeahhh jd from DABOYZ!!!!!!
JD deserved a medal. Hes gonna do some things in the future.
2:27 looked like ao's back foot wasnt even on the board for the lip slide
29:10 so cute going up the stairs (づ。◕‿‿◕。)づ
Commentary on point
So I know I've been pretty critical on wilkins, hawk ueda etc over the past few years Because what has been going at the x games.

I'm not saying yet that this is show but that's like tom Brady throwing 4 picks in a game when he never does.
My two Dogs Moto and Jimmy getting phased out by these sick Children.
Kids today ..🔥
Also how is Gui only 15 feel like I been watching him forever lol
Who would have thought that being a vert skater at 22 years old and you would be a dinosaur and irrelevant is mind boggling .
JD already has so much style and different tricks, it's insane.
Simplesmente Gui khury!!! 🐐🇧🇷
ay-muh. ah-oh.
you'd think they'd pronounce their names right by now XD
Can't even get Sanchez right 🤦
Lotta bails hate to blame the ramp but it looked small to me🤔. Wondering the diff in size from Tony's ramp? Overall great job everyone thanks X Games for supporting vert it's crazy to me that vert wasn't in the Olympics..Prob a blessing in disguise😎🤙
Actually XGames ramp is bigger than Tony’s
Get it JD!!! You're getting gold next xgames I can feel it!!!!
Let's go JD.
Last run did not worth to take JDs spot and it was obviously for everyone and I hate how the comentators set the scene for the robbery saying its worthing podium before the score in a lame atempt to manipulate the crowds opinion , I start to get sick of this favoritsm , F the judges and the coruption
Lack of lip tricks, it’s not hard to figure out
Amelia's commentary shows awareness of skateboarding culture. I appreciate that she is able to call the tricks, especially in the Men's Street comp.

THE YOUNG BLOODS DIDNT COME 2 FXCK AROUND!!! /////////// *P.S * Please shoutout the beat producer 0;00- 0;30
JD is the man he's gonna be the best ever one day
Gui the best
Whoa
Jd is insane
Gui is good, but JD was way better than I thought! 😮💨
Ohhhhh im earlyyyyy
The commentators sound like they are bored( Hahaha). They are too wooden sounding like they are hosting a Golf tournament. " Get in the hole...zzzzzzzzz".
I thought I was watching a new division at the beginning- pre schoolers! 🤯 little vandals 🤣
GMO foods and redbull diet🤣
FIRE AMELIA BRODKA ASAP
