I have to give it to Alito for that one footed miler flip. Stomped the landing too
19:25 for those curious
I clipped it 😂, I don't understand why they didn't make a reel of this, the slowmo is insane
Massive jeopardy!
SSX in real life
We should make a sperate 5 mins for one-footed tricks
This event is losing a little bit of its spirit every year. The one footed miller flip is such a great example. No reward for that creativity really even though it's clearly a fan favorite. The heart of this event is the fans, and I think we're starting to feel a bit of a disconnect.
100%. Still love the event but also what's with that lip? ... steals the nature from it imo.
Love the event, but it was way too much just big spins and flips. Those goofy body drags and all that messing around is what this was, and IMHO should be, about
@@Ksoism agreed, should be about who can be the most creative and playful with the roller and the knuckle. Nothing was better than the first 2 years they started doing this.
@@trevorhawley1237 Exactly, no lip on a roller, this is what made this event kind of cool imo, it was resort style bombing over a roller to get as much distance air as possible with style. Think I am a dying breed of old gen snowboarding from late 80s -90s and in minority.
Judges do be mental this year
Darcy, Dylan and Zeb keeping it real and true to the knuckle huck spirit. The others out here turning it into big air v2.0... Where were Dusty, Fridge and the other truly Steezy riders? Knuckle huck is losing what made it exciting, fun and unique
Not sure about Dusty but fridge is out recovering from an injury rn
i completely agree. i'm more looking for the stalls and steeze similar to death diving. a half a rotation maybe 1 flip completely laid out. this year was hardly entertaining IMO
happens to everything … evolves past the concept .
so much more exciting when they are in contact with the knuckle in some way
Fridge retired
My exact same thoughts. Zebs backside 5, into a butter and cab 3 out. THAT'S what knuckle huck is about.
Sal saying what we are all thinking, it's not big air. Drag your hand, nollie the knuckle.
Put some butter on it!
Tbh the course makers made the knuckle like a jump this year
Don't get me wrong it was impressive, but seeing Brearley win the competition by using the knuckle as a jump was a bit disappointing. I think the real winners were the ones utilizing the knuckle to do something different
Real
Agreed I think the knuckle huck has lost some meaning, and it may be corny to say but Zeb keeps it fresh
They need to flatten the knuckle if they want people to use it more.
I wanna see the hand drags, presses, body slides and all that jazz
X games rewards high risk, that’s the core of it. Zeb’s antics are funny and everything but simply not quite gnarly enough
Zeb is everyone's imagination of the real life ssx game character Moby, and he blows our imagination every time.
This might be true for the most part, but the only true SSX trick done that night was by Alito, hands down. Most of the tricks we saw are recreations or reimagined tricks that already exist, Alito literally changed the game with a trick we only ever saw… IN A GAME.
While I agree, this is a wild thing to say when Dylan Alito stomped out a one footed miller flip with the red Uber meter on the screen literally in this video lol
He has style like a person with dementia, looks chaotic and off balance.
he is the post 2020 equity stroke from snowboarding - check the "white privilege..."
Here for Zeb, his style is amazing
Thank you!
Bro they underrated the one footed flip hard asf
That and zebs last trick were the sweetest tricks in my opinion
Commentator at 22:08 said it best: It's not a big air. Max use of the knuckle in knuckle huck.
And that's what should be rewarded
Sal is the OG.. he gets it. Not some brainless hypebeast like Craig McMorris
@@SwedishStud1 Craig is the worst
Mini big air? Super impressive but cmon knuckle huck needs to be knuckle huck, masekela was on point with that
its the favorite because its the only event that doesnt say "how many times can i flip/spin before landing", you get things like Zeb's first year run where he said "screw the air im gonna penguin slide the whole landing instead", thats the creativity we enjoy, this felt too much like a big air this year
And no Marcus puts sucks cuz he's the king of doing a bunch of spins but even when he does that in knucklehuck he throws is some nollie butters on the knuckle.
"Knuckle huck." They pretty much built it like a jump this year.
The one footed miller flip takes it all day everyday I still go to bed some nights thinking how that didn’t even win him a podium
So happy to see Dylan Alito out there. Highlight of the comp for sure
Dude absolutely shut it down, 🤡 judges didn’t know what they saw. NBD trick and was extremely dangerous. Dude literally did a SSX video game trick and got the shittiest reaction I’ve ever seen, but Marcus spins off the top like a fidget spinner and wins. 🤦🏽
I’m tired of seeing this competition turn into a “how many flips and spins can I do in one trick.”
I like knuckle buck because it’s all about steeze and making a trick your own. Not anymore. It’s poor man’s big air. Steeze and style doesn’t matter anymore.
It sucks too cuz that's on the judges. You shouldn't be giving points for people using it as big air
But for arguments sake, Alito threw a huge air trick but was more creative and unique than anything else we saw tonight but the judges reacted like they saw a normal basic trick.
21:13 YES THIS MAN GETS IT. dude yes. use the knuckle.
I "love" how Zeb is on the thumbnail image even though he got silver. I don't think Zeb's runs were that dope this year. That one foot miller flip was def the best.
I mean it’s just because he has been getting so much traction lately, if he would of landed the 4 run I think he would of had the gold
Put a 720 spin limit on this event, Would keep it where it needs to be.
I thought it was knuckle huck not big air
Is there anything gnarlier than launching to the bottom off the knuckle?
@@dont4get2wipeyes launching from the big air. 😉
It’s just not the same without Marcus 😢 Hope his recovery goes well and we see him back for some medals next season.
Why so he can do a 1800 for the gold?
@@opluxna2120 He has already ruined the knuckle huck....
@@bosco2814 seriously
Go ride down a mountain at 25-30mph with ONE foot in ur binding, then while maintaining that speed with one foot (mind you, if you slip off at that speed say goodbye to your groin and possibly your ACL/MCL and knee socket) fly off the knuckle and do a tweaked 1 footed backflip that looked like it was literally a copy and paste from SSX video game. Go RUclips that trick and see how many results come up, go RUclips some spins and rotation and see how many come up. KNUCKLE HUCK IS ABOUT CREATIVITY AND THERES NOTHING MORE CREATIVE THAN A NBD TRICK. 🤡 judges 🤡 event now.
@@IDADDYIproductions ahh yes, because marcus doing 720s into a manual into a cork is definitely not creative and stylish, right.
just because something has a bunch of spins (and increased difficulty) doesnt mean its lacking style, but if all it is is a whole bunch of spins by using the knuckle as a jump, and not as a knuckle the way its supposed to be used, then yea, i agree.
while sure zebs trick are creative, at times they arent exactly...the most stylish, by any stretch of margin, as he has a very sketchy riding style.
it sort of looks like he has no control, even when he actually is in full control, which isnt a good thing when were talking a competition based on style.
great comp but it's a little weird that the winner only used the knuckle once and then proceed to use it as a jump and do big air tricks.....that was missing so much creativity....maybe next year...
Darcy, sharp with that handstand across the knuckle. That was wild.😊❤
Zeb, Darcy, and Jake with the “oh my god” trick attempts
Shoutout the one foot miller though that wouldve been a gold if it was 1 or 2 attempts
Y’all were sleeping on Alto!!!!!
We don't watch Knuckle Huck to see 1080's. We watch to see creativity. Sadly, this event is going the way of the spin to win mantra.
I could really feel the tension at the end. Especially with X games spoiling everything in the thumbnail....
7:00 Zed Powell is Beast mode.❤😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮
Liking the video just seeing Sal back at X Games!!!
Zeb being stussy as always he’s just so fun to watch
Thank you!
@@ZebPowelll sick bro, really incredible
So much amplitude.....but sometimes his style is to outta whack. Lots of gymnastics and no grabs. Don't get me wrong......I couldn't do it, but that's the beauty of snowboarding.....it doesn't matter
Selema keeping it real. My thoughts exactly @ 21:00
19:33 This was the best new trick :) i Think Dylan Should have won
720p in 2024 from a huge corporation, while random nobodies on RUclips uploading in 4k 60 fps.
This has just turned into another big air contest.
the progression of snowboarding eats like a machine .
But style will always surpass ,technical .
wish they kept it more within the boundaries of Knuckle .
do what you feel like but the knuckle must be used ,incorporated in some way … great to see the riders pushing as always
I agree!!! Use the knuckle
Alito turning this into SSX3 out here
no Marcus or Dusty is kinda dissapointing but the boys put on a good show regardless
yeah marcus got injuried
needed dusty on this one
I'm watching 5 X-Games a row
Its outstanding !
I'm already waiting for the next one)
The one foot Miller flip was sooooo clean, how did that not win or atleast get him silver...
COngrats 2 Liam~ Though My fav was Darcy SHarpe with those Laid Out Hand Drags~!
Zeb’s style is so inspiring
Terrible how ESPN can't even put it up in full HD just 720
Wow! What a show!
Very impressive!
It's created to bring something new every year ❄️❄️❄️
Great job everyone 👍👍👍
Zeb inspirational ash really making me want to get into this sport
Sal’s mustache 🤘
Very cool thanks 🙏🏼🖤
Still here for dylan’s criminally underrated one footer
@natehaust representing for the boys back in the 413!!!! Proud of you homie!!!!
Selema will forever and always be my favorite announcer, commentator and narrator for action sports!!!!!
From the coolest event to the lamest event in three years :(
We all remember Zeb Powel sliding on his back a few years ago.
This event should be judged in the following way 1-5, were 5 is more important to win:
Creativity: 5
Difficulty: 1
Execution: 3
nobody using the knuckle yet 5:26 I loved the first one with all the butter tricks into stuff this is just a no kicker huck
Dude this is epic! Matt you’re a legend!!! Scott and the boys you’re doing a great job! Can’t wait for the next one! Next time I’m in Florida I’m going to try to come out to that park hope to see you guys there!
The hand drag was beautiful, specially with the 270 twist landing. Well deserved gold
the only right way to do this is for zeb to enter big air and just do knuckle huck jumps and win gold.
I’m so glad the producers chose to show Selema talking instead of showing the riders riding. Stellar TV.
Glad I can always count on the Knuckle Huck for a fun time
I can't even get off the lift with one foot off the board, let alone attempt a trick 😂
congrats to liam, was the most consistent with the harder moves. If zeb had landed his last few rounds then he wouldve gotten gold forsure, that last round from zeb was dope!
His board is like 100cm lol and he just did spin to win. Should’ve been bronze imo.
Yah he hit a double cork twelve but also hit the most perfect hand drag front flip with a late 3 to perfection that trick won it
Loving the Carolina boys!!! Keep it up!! Crush the stereotype, that only good riders come from out west. Ice Coast forever!
A company should make hand drag gloves. Lol tired of putting holes in my mitt. Lol
Zeb is the man! So fun to watch
that canes starter jacket @ 0:18 is fire 🙌🏽
Zeb is nuts. And miles is so steezy
Does anybody know if Jake Canter's Burton snowboard is even released yet? If so what is the model?
720p? 2024?
Marcus owns this competition
I thought knuckle huck was basically flat approach to the knuckle/drop. Now they've sculpted it so it's a jump? Cmon now.
Does anyone know the name of the song in the opening?
Rippy flip 7?!... Insane...
Liam lucky Klevland/Henrickson werent there, missing some heavy hitters for sure.
Is this what American sport events are like? All the ads everywhere it's crazy
Love this comp but I would like to see more old school grabs and less but slower rotations
What’s the zeb’s snowboard’s brand?
21:13 This guy the MVP
I feel like it could be good to have viewers/spectators be able to vote and impact the score somehow.
Zeb Powell is real life SSX Tricky….
The results kinda disappointed me I loved knuckle huck bc the goal was creativity and not just jump tricks
13:27 yesssssssssss so sick
Another year of 720p for god knows what reason.....
anyone know what lukes jacket is??
No way i missed this😢
U have to be crazy to do this im boarding for 22 years but this sh..t is from another world
18:13 most impressive, don't care that it wasn't a super clean landing
to hold the balance and bounce it after the skid is crazy
2nd is darcy's blind handstand
if they don't have a drag or skid it's an automatic DQ
this ain't big air
Liam came and conquered. Fantastic🎉
undeserved, none of his tricks were on the knuckle. This isnt big air
flatten the deck out!!!!! way to go ahead and make it another jump contest. there's no knuckle, it's a mini table top with a 100 foot landing...WHACK
I thought this was knuckle huck......? Zeb, Darcy and Dylan were the only contestants utilizing the knuckle.
That was super dull compared to years past, hopefully we can get the creative riders back out there next year 🤟🏼
don't put medalists in the thumbnails
15:13 I love it
ナックルハックツアーチームみたいで良い雰囲気。 やっぱゼブ好きだな。
I wanna see or do a knuckle Kong backflip and knuckle Kip of the back to front flip.
So I see all these kids from North Carolina crushing it. What resort are they calling home when there ? Asking for a friend 😂
I don’t want the knuckle to become a big air contest
Darcy Sharp the clear winner. Style and creativity on display at 11:13
Dylan Alito carry outta nowhere
how doesnt a back flide flip knuckle smooth as fffffffff not win
?????
xgames on drug
Fun watch as always but it sucks to not see the wizard face off between zeb and marcus. Get better bro, we miss you man.
This makes you realize how good kleveland is, these guys don't really compare in skill level
They're doing what he does just without some awesome 360 butter on the knuckle lol
just started watching this after the women ski knuckle huck, and compare to them these guys are demi-gods💀
Can’t wait for a 1620 mute triple cork in the 2025 knuckle huck
