If you weren't into skateboarding when Tony Hawk landed the first 900 you're really in for a treat for the next 10 years with how much these guys are playing off each other and amping each other up.
Thank you, XGames, for running this. What an awesome competition this was, history in the making. Gui Khury brought years of joy to my eyes and the rest of the lads were impressive as usual, despite struggling to put anything down. Anyone like me who has ever tried to skate vert knows how amazing these fellows are and how hard these tricks are. May God bless you all.
Good to see Moto get the silver, and Gui landing that too oh boy what a fantastic competition! Don't get me wrong, I LOVE the Ventura outdoor stuff but the wind was a problem and throwing the guys off, look at how many more landed tricks and sooner at this indoor venue
Are you pulling my leg KICKFLIP BODY VARIAL 900 that was unbelievable i feel sorry for the people in this world that didn't see that and hit rewind 50x like i just did
Dude amen to that. I spent years trying to get a vert ramp in our hometown. They're hard to maintain, that's the big issue. It's 100K or more that's gonna last all of 10-15 years. Still, California is the destination for vert skaters (and any skaters, really)... I spent 2 months in California and my skating improved by orders of magnitude
@@theskatemap oh for sure. we had to get one of our parents drive hours to our nearest skatepark, and pay like 15 bucks or whatever. i lived in dallas too... the dude with one leg jon comer was always there, and there was always a pro skate crew showing up. it's crazy how many skateparks there are now in general. street skating is thriving for sure.
it's true, Elliot Sloan has been doing 720 heelflips for what seems like 10 years now. I guess it's tough to know where to go from there! He was kind of similar on mega as well - tailgrab 9's won year after year
dude my favorite thing is that Gui just absolutely owns the banshee scream after the kickflip 9. This dude is *mad* competitive!!! Did you see that slam he took right before the make??
These people are on a different level but when i listen to the commentary i have to laugh , with the usage of all the different names of the tricks , it just sounds funny in so many ways. Ohhh the triple spin into the 5 -40 spin down . Lol
Isn't hitting your board on the coping for you own trick essentially clapping yourself? I mean I guess I'd give myself a little clap if I landed that...
first one in competition (unless you count body varial 900 i guess) Edit: Nollie 900 has also been done, if you consider that something other than just a grab
@@greatpaintfxxauchspeeddraw2665 body varial is pretty sick i guess. nollie is idk. seems like it could be just someone's preferred way to start. now if the nollie person also does 900 another way thats super sick. this actual flip trick is next level though. at least to me. im not a huge fan of vert skaters that never do flip tricks also. i never skated vert so i cant really attest to the difficulty so my opinion is pretty worthless btw
If X-Games really wants to up the entertainment quality they will get different commentators. That doesn't mean adding Gary Rogers either. Everyone is aware how forced these broadcasters sound and it's horrid.
gui's reaction to landing a trick he already knew he could land is annoying. It was a great trick and deserved the rank for it but man it was annoying to watch his reaction.
Did he actually land it in a comp in a few tries? Completely different story than outside of a comp in probably dozens of tries and the KID is 15, I think it's annoying too but hating on a kid is pretty weird.
Soya's Alley Oop Varial Kickflip Indy 540 better than Gui's 900 Judo. JD's Around the World Fingerflip 540 worse than Gui's 900 Judo. Interesting. I would have placed Elliot's Heelflip Indy 720 higher.
No BMX vert anymore? X games taking out all the coolest events. Aggressive inline? Gone. Big air? Gone. Now BMX vert? Soon, nothing will be left except skateboard street.
@@corey8677 sorry that literally defying the laws of physics doesn’t impress you bud 🤷♀️ Every skated in this comp absolutely rules, but the first ever kickflip body varial 900 in a competition SECOND TRY can’t be beat.
15 year old kid does a trick no one else could do right now and you could never even dream of doing, pretty much defying human limitations. You: I'm not impressed by this!
Finger flip body varial around the world indy 540...seriously!
JD killin it 🤯😁
JD got robbed like soyas trick was cool but come on
That was lit!
Love JD always with that big smile, seems like a really humble fun dude, love his trick selection as well. Vert skating is alive and well
@@stefandjurachkovitch8624 Da Boyz!!!!
dude really made history tonight
Thanks
Moto's trick was CRAZY! Huge props.
Insane seeing the rodeo ff impossible and the kickflip body varial 9 go down back to back
Aqui é Brasil caraiooo 🇧🇷 🇧🇷 🇧🇷 🇧🇷 🇧🇷
Brandon mentioning PLG at the end gave me shivers. PLG was one of my favourite vert skaters for many years. Miss that dude.
It's pretty awesome to see JD rippin at the X games
Look at Khury man, so inspirational
hahahahahah nice one
Gui is untouchable
JD is rising. VERY SICK skater
Dude can we just talk about how freakin stylish that kf 9 was too? PERFECT man! the kick and everything

JD Sanchez is my favourite new age vert ramp skater! He rips at park too!
Good to see Moto get the silver, and Gui landing that too oh boy what a fantastic competition!

Gui ta querendo ser o novo Tony Hawk. Mandou muito‼️‼️🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷
WOW!!! Is this video game? Imagine to watch this tricks in real life. Xgames Chiba rules!
Wow, JD is here? That's fantastic!
Are you pulling my leg KICKFLIP BODY VARIAL 900 that was unbelievable i feel sorry for the people in this world that didn't see that and hit rewind 50x like i just did
I still remember watching Tony hawk do the first 900. Never even imagined anykne adding to it one day
@@stevenwilson8718 me too and i agree but bro Skateboarding is awesome again for real and the girls are magnificent
He hit it for the first time about a month prior to this and let out the same banshee scream lol
i wonder how crazy vert would be right now if it was accessible as street skating
I skate at lots of parks with vert bowls and they hardly see any use compared to the street sections. I don't think it is about accessibility.
@@freedomcaller its definitely about accessibility. thats not the only reason ofc but its a factor
Where is the Richman sport of skateboarding?

Killing it JD! Keep it up! 🤙🛹
Everyone is laying it down! Love it!
What an event!!! Love the tricks at the best trick comp. So many positive things to say
Loved watching JD grow up at Braille. Now seeing him on the big stage is full circle
Insane skating. Stoked to see JD shredding it 🔥
Elliot killing it, but can we please make a rule that any trick that ever podiumed before can't podium again? Let's push progression forward.
Like come on learn a new trick already...one trick pony...everyone else pushing the limit
it's true, Elliot Sloan has been doing 720 heelflips for what seems like 10 years now. I guess it's tough to know where to go from there! He was kind of similar on mega as well - tailgrab 9's won year after year
Fr
That'd be a stupid rule.
Psyched Moto got his trick! Well fought
dude my favorite thing is that Gui just absolutely owns the banshee scream after the kickflip 9. This dude is *mad* competitive!!! Did you see that slam he took right before the make??
Looks like everybody just had their wind taken out of them after Gui landed that.
Dude really landed the Super McVarial 900! 17:20
JD!!!! I was hoping you graduated Braille to the Pros!!! Congratulations homie!!!
Crazy, he did it
Jimmy with the turnstile shirt 🔥🔥
Gui Khury is becoming the GOAT of vert
Congrats Gui !!
Excelente Gui Khuri
JD Sanchez!!!!!
Amazing how dey just can do dat.....I know but to go down the side and up the other is amazing.
Real athletes!!!🤙🤙🤙
7:16 his face in the background like: " if he lands this, I'm coooooked"
JD got robbed Soya's trick was cool but 540 around the world finger flip deserved a Medal of some kind
He has lots of time to become a legend and win medals but yeah he should have at least placed
Congrats Curry, great skating bro.
I have no idea how you top some of the tricks done in this competition. Insane stuff.
Excelente!!! Gui Khuri orgulho do Brasil
That young man Khury just did a kick flip 900 I believe
Kick flip 900 body varial
I was watching when Tony Hawk landed the first 900. Cool to see things still being pushed further
These people are on a different level but when i listen to the commentary i have to laugh , with the usage of all the different names of the tricks , it just sounds funny in so many ways. Ohhh the triple spin into the 5 -40 spin down . Lol
Gui killed it on 4th attempt.
(and on 3rd attempt O.O)
JD !!!!!!
Vert being dominated by cobra kai kids.
Gui basically is every child’s “player 1” in Tony Hawks Pro Skater pulling through for gold in the last heat.
AWESOME!!
Gui Khury foi insano!!
Kickflip Double Cork!
JD 🔥
Wow !
17:48 Did he just do the trick from rocket power? Kickflip McVarial 900?
@ElliotSloan looks like a Monster, literally....
Gui is the future...the next Bob
@soyainomata please do it at Tonys vert gap😎👊🏽
I'm rooting for JD
Isn't hitting your board on the coping for you own trick essentially clapping yourself? I mean I guess I'd give myself a little clap if I landed that...
The Judo 9 tell me where do they come up with these names.
Khuri to Tony Hawk here hold my milk kickflip body varial 900 hahaha 😂
MOTO!
is that the first 900 with a flip trick or anything besides just a grab
first one in competition (unless you count body varial 900 i guess)
Edit: Nollie 900 has also been done, if you consider that something other than just a grab
Yes - he landed the first one about a month ago
@@greatpaintfxxauchspeeddraw2665 Dude you know what's next though... fakie to fakie 9 for someone... I wonder if Mitchie would try it
@@greatpaintfxxauchspeeddraw2665 body varial is pretty sick i guess. nollie is idk. seems like it could be just someone's preferred way to start. now if the nollie person also does 900 another way thats super sick.

@@theskatemap that's awesome ty for the info guys
KHURY 🐐🇧🇷
JD!!!!

Get JD on Powell! Deville make it happen!
So heavy. I actually like the commentary too
gui's reaction to landing a trick he already knew he could land is annoying. It was a great trick and deserved the rank for it but man it was annoying to watch his reaction.
Did he actually land it in a comp in a few tries? Completely different story than outside of a comp in probably dozens of tries and the KID is 15, I think it's annoying too but hating on a kid is pretty weird.
Also tried and failed in Ventura, it's a big tdeal...
get used to gui getting double vert gold every x games, lil homie is only gonna get better
gee curry did the thing
maybe new to xgames but jd is more of a household name than any of these guys 😂
I feel a bit out of touch. Never heard of any of these skaters. Or the commentator for that matter.
They did their thing tho.
🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
Khury's best trick was sick but minus 1 point for that scream of his.
Hahahahah it's all he's got it's just part of growin up man. Give it a year hahahh
Soya's Alley Oop Varial Kickflip Indy 540 better than Gui's 900 Judo. JD's Around the World Fingerflip 540 worse than Gui's 900 Judo. Interesting. I would have placed Elliot's Heelflip Indy 720 higher.
Which is why you're here in the RUclips comments section and they're there judging the X Games, lol
No BMX vert anymore? X games taking out all the coolest events. Aggressive inline? Gone. Big air? Gone. Now BMX vert? Soon, nothing will be left except skateboard street.
The kickflip 9 was off the charts good but that kid is still a bit insufferable with his celebrations, hope one day he calms the f down
I see a bunch of crashouts that cant execute a freakin trick.
Brooooooooooo
Need a commentator mute button.
Ay I can’t stand tgem
@@jakeallen1553same, the ruin it for sure. Scotty on the BMX side is where it's at, they need someone like that for skating
You want to do a RUclips video yourself, showing us your ability to commentate?
I think they did a decent job
@@ghokkand3563 Yo For Real
Agree. I miss Tony Hawk and Chris Miller.
Moto is killing it. Future is bright with Soya and JD. I'll wait for Gui's voice change. The commentator sucks😢
Why isn’t tony hawk competing?
Too young
Too busy making video games
Commentators are terrible, definitely miss Sal. Why isn’t Gary on the MiC!
Nobody, and I mean nobody, wants that guy back on the microphone
Amelia look
Woman calm down it’s not that spectacular
skaters an not landing tricks.. name a better pair
FIRE THE COMMENTATORS ASAP OR ADD A COMMENTATORS MUTE BOTTON 😡😡🤬🤬
There already is a mute button, turn the sound off genius 😂
Soya and Moto equal first then JD second and Elliot third.
Spinning doesn't impress me.
Did you miss the “kickflip” part of the kickflip body v 900? He’s literally the only person in the world that’s ever landed a flip 9.

@@johncunningham1889 literally
Commentator lady needs to relax a bit. Getting anxiety from her reactions like she has never seen skateboarding before.
16:33 it looked like moto missed the wrap with his foot so he spun his board around his foot with his hand, which i dont think ive ever seen anyone do
or it did wrap and then he did like a varial?? i just rewatched it so many times and i still have no idea what happened
Definitely not wrapped, therefore it was not a front foot impossible variation. Having said that, it was still amazing to say the least.
Jd !
Chick is annoying
Where Gary at? Bring the g back for real
JD!!!!!!
