Tough one to call, put Wilhelm and Mullen in there and I think both peeps would blow minds on either side of the fence. Either sport kicks serious ass when the board or bike is in the right hands.
Im gonna have to say the Skate tricks were more interesting and flashy. BMX looked equally complex but it seemed like he was doing the same thing over and over until the end. Just my opinion, they are both great at what they do.
there is definitely more of a variety with what you can do on a skateboard compared to a bike. and skateboards are lighter and can be carried so theyre a little more accessible. bikes get more air usually, and its more of an all terrain thing, but theyre just too big and bulky, and not enough variety.
Skateboards snap = Buying a new one = Wasting money Bmx = Expensive, but lasts longer Skateboards = easier to handle = Less weight Bmx = Harder to handle = Heavier
I think, the best thing would be if we just don't say which "sport" is better. I think the best way is if you can do both. Mebbe not like this but if you're able to do both :D
Not just because i am a skateboarder, but a liked more the skateboard! and i could even dream of riding bike like that, so that guy is pretty good too! :D
skateboard and bmx are both good, but for bmx u need strength to keep the bike in balance, but in skateboard the board is just in the ground, u just pick it up with ur legs and flip it
I'm a flatland rider for over 10 years but I have to say Rodney killed it in this vid. Flatground BMX is extremly hard but I wasn't as impressed with the flat rider as I was with the skater. Good tricks from both guys to be sure but the skater takes it IMO
You don't see enough kids doing flatland skating these days. Everyone wants to do Laser Flips or 360 Double Kickflips. Personally, I hope there are more Rodney Mullens waiting in the wings, 'cause this kind of artistry shouldn't be allowed to fade into the annals of history, at least not this soon
biker wins hands down. For one, the bike is a lot bigger and weighs more, making it more difficult to toss around and balance with, and it's in a REALLY small area for a competition like that. That and the skateboarder is just bouncing on his wood.
While the BMX flatland moves are more "plastic", the skateboard flatland moves are way more "physics-breaking". I can understand and explain how the BMX rider does 90% of his moves while my mind is still trying to figure out how the fuck you go from have the table on its side to kick it, make it roll and land again on its side Yeah So Skater One Because This Guys Biking Skills SUCKED Hard So I Don't Know Why They Would Put Him In....
@MultiEPICSKILLZ the bmxer does different series of tricks...plus it takes a lot more balance to do flatland...u can balance on a small surface like a skateboard without wheels...
Yes he's a pro from a technical sense, but if you compare him to others he looks like a pushover... And yes, I've seen both pro skaters and BMX riders, and honestly I have to say I'm more impressed over all with BMX. Skateboarding is awesome and always will be, but nothing beats somebody who really knows some sick BMX tricks...
idk why bmx and skaters always fight there both fucking awesome. i skate, bmx, snowbard, and wake skate. i think we all just to get bak to fighting the real issue. roller skaters. i mean seriosly every time i go to a park they get in my with with there foot fairy action.
I'm pretty sure that's Rodney Mullen because the way he gets into promo and bmx is nowhere near as hard as skateboarding... bmx only requires strength and balance while skateboarding requires balance, leg strength, and extreme foot coordination
Is that Rodney Mullen?
I just saw this and that's the first thing I asked myself(x
+Landonface243 No. If that was Rodney Then the bmx rider would be too scared to challenge him
def not, that kid was too young.
i've seen everyone of those bmx "tricks", but never have i seen that done on a board. very nice
they're both fun to cruise around in going fast makes u feel like as if you were free its the best feeling ever
Bmx thanks 🫡🥰🤝🤝
that guy flipping the skateboard is friggin awesome. thats my 1st time ever seeing such a thing
street freestyle skateboarding - pleasure to the eyes.
That trick at the end was amazing
what you can do on a bike vs. a skateboard is apples to oranges....but the skater clearly had more variety and some pretty sick flatland at that!!
The bmx takes balance but the skater takes skill so skating wins
that s8ter is the most amazing skater ive ever seen , amazing skillz bro :P
Tough one to call, put Wilhelm and Mullen in there and I think both peeps would blow minds on either side of the fence.
Either sport kicks serious ass when the board or bike is in the right hands.
I'm a skater, but BMX freestyle kills it, bikes are more versatile in that respect.
im a mountain biker so of course i like bmx more but the skater just fucking routed his ass, and even the bmxer was mighty impressive.
Im gonna have to say the Skate tricks were more interesting and flashy. BMX looked equally complex but it seemed like he was doing the same thing over and over until the end. Just my opinion, they are both great at what they do.
im into both bmxing and skateboarding, the skater killed it
It's easier to learn BMX stuff, but skating is imo funnier !
your right, its just its hard to do a number of things on a bike on flat ground
The BMX guy should've done more different stuff. And that skateboarder has mastered a lot of Rodney's tricks. Marvellous.
Best part was when he did the one hand hand-stand and flipped the board.
Bmx or skate flatland is amazing to watch either way. Gotta love the techy shit the bmx'ers pull off though
there is definitely more of a variety with what you can do on a skateboard compared to a bike. and skateboards are lighter and can be carried so theyre a little more accessible. bikes get more air usually, and its more of an all terrain thing, but theyre just too big and bulky, and not enough variety.
both are equally awesome. I'd like to see a bmxer skateboarding on his bike on 2 skateboards XD
Skateboards snap = Buying a new one = Wasting money
Bmx = Expensive, but lasts longer
Skateboards = easier to handle = Less weight
Bmx = Harder to handle = Heavier
they make it look easy.
I skate. But I have to admit. Freestyle BMX looks better. But I have respect for both.
bmx takes balance but skateboards takes both skills and balance so skateboarding
lmao where did you get this from, your ass?
these guys make it look TOO easy
I use to think skateboarding was kool til I turned 3... BMX FOR LIFE!
The circus called... they wanted their bikes back.
It's like comparing an apple to an orange.. Two completely different sports.
I have been riding a bike and a skateboard since i was 7 so I think they are both great
Rodney Mullen, the godfather of skating
this is like soccer vs basketball, you can like both or just choose what you like more, there's no "best".
our both enemy's are the roller skaters and the one's with the scooter
I would like to hit the yellow FMX ramp behind them. looks sick!!
I was all for the biker until that last skateboard trick.
I think, the best thing would be if we just don't say which "sport" is better. I think the best way is if you can do both. Mebbe not like this but if you're able to do both :D
Flatland is so hard, I tried it, fell on my face so many times. So I give this to BMX.
the skater kinda looked like he was transforming for a sec. lol
Not just because i am a skateboarder, but a liked more the skateboard! and i could even dream of riding bike like that, so that guy is pretty good too! :D
skateboard and bmx are both good, but for bmx u need strength to keep the bike in balance, but in skateboard the board is just in the ground, u just pick it up with ur legs and flip it
i bmx but the skater did sick tricks and the bmxer just rode on the front wheel the whole time
I'm a flatland rider for over 10 years but I have to say Rodney killed it in this vid. Flatground BMX is extremly hard but I wasn't as impressed with the flat rider as I was with the skater. Good tricks from both guys to be sure but the skater takes it IMO

I do bmx but skating one hands down
flat land skating is more insane i find, but those fuckers on bmxs can do some fucking kickass shit.
Dayumm . Thiss iss madd sickk .
@devinthetaylor they're two different things, you really can't compare them. bmx can air more easily, skating gets waaayyy hard and technical.
Skateboarder smashes it. Never seen anything like it before. Big win!
Wtf? Switch Foot Pogo! Are u serious? I didnt know people really did that. That wuz badass.
skateboarding dude KILLED the dude in the bike !!
Yohei Uchino vs Rodney Mullen would be the only way to really figure this out
i both skate and bmx and bmx is harder at first but once uve been doing both for a while that skating eventually becomes harder.
Skater had it all the way, the biker did variations of the same thing
the skateboarder has a rodney mullen style, hes pretty sick
That skater was awesome he has similar style to Rodney Mullen and he loves primo
i like BMX more but the skater had more variety
no matter what anyone says biking is waaayyyy better than skating
I gotta admit I don't really like watching flat bmx, street bmx and street skating both look dope as F*** but biking is more fun
man i wish i can skateboard and ride a bmx like that.
Rodney Mullan would be proud of that skater
I bmx, but i have to admit skate wins, if this were a true pro flatland bmxer then this would have been a much closer competition.
takes more time to do the flatland tricks than the state board trickssss
I'm a flatland fan, but the skater wins this hands down. They need to find a better flatlander.
i like bmx and skatebarding the same but the guy that had the skateboard was better
skateboarding is better than bmx because there are more choices but the bmx tricks 10 times easier and more enjoyable
BMX won it for me! I am so stoked to see Scotty Cranmer kill it at X Games! Less than a week before X is going off again!!
I didn't know that Rodney Mullen could BMX!
dude the skater is so much better thumbs up
TONY HAUK-IN IT FOR LIFE!!!!!!!!!!!
that bmx shit is harder than you think boys
its like hes dancing with the skateboard :D
i love both with a passion but can you really compare the two? lol they're two completely different styles
@xAuditore yeah, lets forget of the VERY SMALL part of energy that we spend to fabricate bikes :)
those rail to rail flips owned
biker wins hands down. For one, the bike is a lot bigger and weighs more, making it more difficult to toss around and balance with, and it's in a REALLY small area for a competition like that. That and the skateboarder is just bouncing on his wood.
Not always. Bmx has the record for most hight on a quarterpipe, halfpipe, and more.
Both Are sick
but i'm leaning towards skating... just cuz i skate....
but that BMX stuff is hella tight
While the BMX flatland moves are more "plastic", the skateboard flatland moves are way more "physics-breaking". I can understand and explain how the BMX rider does 90% of his moves while my mind is still trying to figure out how the fuck you go from have the table on its side to kick it, make it roll and land again on its side Yeah So Skater One Because This Guys Biking Skills SUCKED Hard So I Don't Know Why They Would Put Him In....
omg flatlander totally won like he can do the same move 4 times wat a boss!
he pwned the bmxer i think i'll buy some inline skates now
@MultiEPICSKILLZ the bmxer does different series of tricks...plus it takes a lot more balance to do flatland...u can balance on a small surface like a skateboard without wheels...
The skateboard guy definetly won
The freeze on a skateboard tops the bmx
bmx is harder than skating cause you gotta have arm and leg strength and skate you just have leg strength
omg he just does some crazy old school tricks but where are the flips or 180°???
Damned... I also skate, but I don´t do flatground... This skater is SICK!!! He is sooooo sick man!!! But I also believe that flat bmx is hard, too.
Yes he's a pro from a technical sense, but if you compare him to others he looks like a pushover... And yes, I've seen both pro skaters and BMX riders, and honestly I have to say I'm more impressed over all with BMX. Skateboarding is awesome and always will be, but nothing beats somebody who really knows some sick BMX tricks...
idk why bmx and skaters always fight there both fucking awesome. i skate, bmx, snowbard, and wake skate. i think we all just to get bak to fighting the real issue. roller skaters. i mean seriosly every time i go to a park they get in my with with there foot fairy action.
1:17 ....total control over board motion..shweet
guys, guys why are skateboarders and bmxers always arguing about which one's better? lets just agree on 1 thing, inline skating sucks :)
personally I like them both but think about it this way wen u break ur deck 65-75 bucks down the drain u break a bike 300 bucks goes to waste
I'm pretty sure that's Rodney Mullen because the way he gets into promo and bmx is nowhere near as hard as skateboarding... bmx only requires strength and balance while skateboarding requires balance, leg strength, and extreme foot coordination
@GuitarHeroGage thats true, ive tried both, bmx is by far the hardest out of the two
why cant the two of us combine our forces and DESTROY all scooters and rollerblades
both of it super awesomes!!!!!
Skater won, hands down. That bmx guy did the same thing every time.
The skateboarder owned the bmx guy
it looked like he was dancing with his bike
Who cares about skateboard vs bmx. I love them both. We are all in the war against FRUIT BOOTS.
thats like putting terry adams up against rodney mullen
