- Heavy hitters Nyjah Huston and Chris Cole went hard in the quarterfinals of the inaugural ESPN Game of Skate at the ESPN headquarters on Aug. 1, 2014.
SKATE, also known as the Game of Skate, is a skateboarding game where skaters attempt to perform each other's tricks in succession until all but one player is eliminated. It uses rules based upon the H.O.R.S.E. game played by basketball players. SKATE was first played in the 1970s by vertical skateboarders Lance Mountain, Neil Blender and John Lucero, and was then adopted by street skaters in the 1980s. In January, 2003 Eric Koston's éS Game of SKATE a professional invitational event, was held, and was the first tournament-style, head-to-head format event of its kind. Not long after, K5 Boardshop was the first organized amateur tournament for SKATE. The éS Game of SKATE tournament expanded globally in 2004 and has both professional and amateur divisions

Stage is too small and the crowd sounds like they're watching golf
AnonOfAnarchy under rated comment
well, it is connecticut
Faxxxxx
Oh yeah, the golf whisperer is in effect.
Golf😆😆😆😆😆🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
I'm just sitting here waiting for someone to pull a Christ Air with moon gravity
Aaron Gelera hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm
Bruh, this isn' t skate 3
Scratch Beats We know, it's Tony Hawk's underground.
Scratch Beats Skate 3 doesn't have moon gravity
Edward M. Oliver EMO hey we are Santa Cruz
I will always remember Nyjah when he was short with the dreads
ShifTy 15 Hell only Nijah I know
Same
Like when he was 14 and set to take the crown fron Ryan..
Funny thing was he wasn't short he was just a bad ass skater at like 8 lol
The first time I've seen him was in Tony Hawks Project 8
Give it up to Cole for consistently matching nearly everything Nyjah threw at him. Much harder to play defense
5:48 Thank you X Games for showing that replay, that was really necessary
Hahahaha they hearted your obviously sarcastic comment 😂
😅😅🤣🤣😂
😳😂
It almost seemed like they were trying to mess up Cole’s groove.
@@jasoncharrier7940 that was my immediate thought. And it worked
damn they make it look soooo clean and simple, RESPEEECT

Your pic looks like Daewon Song constipated😂🤣😂
"Oh I'mma go watch some UA-cam" *UA-cam recommends me a Gabzito video*
"Well I'mma go on Reddit for a sec"
*Gabzito just posted on r/arcticmonkeys*
"Let's watch this skating video from some years ago"
*Gabzito commented 4 years ago*
The crowd was insane that day!!
Svahn ahah
Absolutely bonkers! How can security calm all that madness?!
Is like a chees match crowd :D
Crazy for not cheering
all 4 of them
that plastic edging is death waiting to happen
hahahahaha
you don't need the stage, skate is something which can be done on flat ground
@@GrowingDownUnder Easier to spectate for a larger croud.
Gavinander idk premade bleachers are probably cheap compared to that riser.
they had to put it there because jay adams
The platform space gives me anxiety.
Man, once, just once, I want to see Rodney Mullen walk out in this comp and watch everyone else just sit there like, "You gotta be f***ing kidding me?"
He'd be the Oprah of games of SKATE.
YOU get a letter, YOU get a letter, EVERYONE GETS A LETTER!!
*crowd goes insane*
I wish that day would happen!!
I’m months late but Rodney Mullen would SUCK at skate. No hand plants, no grabs,no bonelesses, no feet on the ground, no nocomplies. He never had stuff like switch inward heel.
Cadence King except what old heads can’t seem to understand is you can’t touch the ground with anything but your wheels during a trick in a game of skate so no he wouldn’t be giving out letters, he would be eliminated in the first round by real skaters who know how to do viable tournament tricks.
The man literally invented the majority of the "viable tricks". Yeah, I'm 30, but it doesn't mean I don't know what I'm talking about. It's okay though, I love Nyjah too, I'm not biased and ignorant like the responders 🤷♂️
I don't see them skating around collecting letters...
😂
What are you... OH! Oh that is clever!
My name is Aaron Kyro and I'm a professional skateboarder from the San Francisco Bay Area bruh really?
My name is Aaron Kyro and I'm a professional skateboarder from the San Francisco Bay Area gaaaahdaaayum
My name is Aaron Kyro and I'm a professional skateboarder from the San Francisco Bay Area I don't care to erase your name XD
13:10 "halfcab 540 flip", did you guys hear Nyjah say "no it's not". So funny!
this game is wasted on an audience that doesn't even realize how lucky they are
So true
I agree. I bet half of the people in the audience can't tell a kick flip from a heel flip. smh
"Again, we're coming to you from ESPN campus here in Bristol... where no one knows what the hell anyone is doing on that stage."
The blatant favoritism to nyjah from the announcers made my physically cringe
I concur.
Honestly. Was too obvious
Nyjah was still going up and up in terms of competition/wins/skill.
Is it just me or all of Nyjah's tricks fucking flawless like some skateboarding robot.
Well, yeah, until he messes up like he did multiple time lol
+drummerdude0515 He is very clean/perfect, and yeah it's a bit annoying seeing Chris's tricks not even look as perfect. But hey credit where credit's due.
thought same, indeed...
Hes been sponsored the majority of his life so u can imagine how good he would have become, his style is super robotic now
drummerdude0515 there are plenty of skaters that are robots like that. Chris joslin, Luan Olivera and Shane O'Neill just to name a couple more
"good on defence"
lol
Wtf😂😂
"Nollie half cab tre flip"
nollie big flip no?
i came down here to find this comment and it was the first one...lol. dumb refs
+Soulrunners1Freerun that would be a nollie bigflip lmao!
Can't stand that shit. Half cab should only mean fakie backside 180 and not be used for anything more
Right no such thing as a nollie cab lol
6:22 nollie “half cab tre flip”💀
I’ve heard pros say Nollie half cabs lol
@@NR-gp2il same
Nah man 8:06 "nollie half cab big flip" even he sounded confused saying it
dude the announcer at the event 🤦🏼
9:59 "We knew this was going to be a battle Jeff... Uuuhh... Jason"
Uuuubbjikkkkkkkkkkkkkkoooooooooooooooooooooooooooookooookiiiiiikkkkiikiikikkkkkkkkmmmmmmkjkjjjkjjjjj*nkjkkkkjjjnjjjjjjjkjkjkjjjjjjjjnnnnnnnnnnnnn.
Serena Estrada what
Lol wonder who Jeff is
@@px30silver4ever his lover
Ma name is Jeff... 😁
This couldn't have been the worst competition. There is no hype whatsoever. The ref was just so annoying & sounded like he was clueless on skate terminology...
I really think they just wanted it to end
I think the Referee Plays Tony Hawks Pro Skater while they do there tricks... Full Cab Varial Flip? Damn...
*Tony Hawk Downhill Jam
Mat Erix It means 360 Varial Flip. Stop thinking that all things real life do are copied from games.
***** stop with these stupid gazelle names and all that other shit it was a full cab big flip
Mat Erix “I’ve played Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater, I think I know what I’m speaking of.”
You guys are the worst part of skating.
announcer: nollie.... half cab... big flip
actual trick: nollie big flip
Houston's execution is unreal. Cole some how sticks it.
The announcers make this unenjoyable.
I think he had to inject some energy because of the lifeless audience
Right they should’ve had pros be the judges like at the berrics
@@imustacheyouaquestion1 casually the most american statement right there.. pathetic 😂
@@user-qx7tm5df8j what?
the announcers, the atmosphere, the empty 'spot' they have to skate. it all takes most of the life, most of the fun out of it.
Wtf, Why would we want to see a slow mo replay of a trick that wasn't even landed? lol wut
Sam Bourbeau see what they did wrong
@Dweeeeeezy09 how TF does it have 240 likes?
@@benjaminchen4367 320 morons
this hurt to watch. way to suck the soul it of skateboarding.
Karl trembath lol yeah def should have cut the fucking mic
Karl trembath I cringed everytime he said "nollie half-cab"
its was actually half-cab of a nollie))maan he's so bad...
Very Well Said!!!!!!!!
bring back vert
“Hold on one second Chris”
GaBoyzzz “Hold on one second Nyjah”.. Did you miss them saying that multiple times as well?
Imagine going Rodney Mullen at this 20 years go, when he pulls out 20 flip tricks you've never seen before.
They should just leave S.K.A.T.E. to the berrics. They do it the best.
They wouldn't replay the bails lol
I’m just watching this now and it’s the worst game of skate damn...
not the worst. Just dry and no audience. With actual passionate skaters in the crowd it would have had more energy. More people screaming.
No wonder they didn't do it again
BlueCheese747 there issue is there in Connecticut. Which has a very small skate click. Anywere in north east does. They should have done it in California or texas. But yet again the espn headquarters is in ct so yeah, im from ct so i understand theres smaller scene.
This is only fun when 2 guys who are friends are doing it with no crowd.
I have always loved skating and love showing people about about skateboarding.
I would never show this to anyone. Playing SKATE is not a spectator sport. It's a skill building challenge between friends.
@@gabelogan56 true especially cus most games are pathetic in skill compared to this one, but when you pull off these kind of tricks, people want to watch. especially if u can appreciate nyjah was probably a fan of c cole and grew on his stuff.
"Half cab 540° flip"... you mean fakie bigger flip? Wtf are these judges even calling lmao?
Jason Michelson Same thing i thought, but that doesn't sound ''cool'' enough bro.
I’m not a skater so all these tricks look the same but somehow have different names lol😂😂
do they host these events on always sketchy places, a nice piece of 6in glass blocking you in, with a sweet 3 ft fall. thats fkin genius!!! they shouldput barbed wire around the edge next time!
LOL the ref can't tell the sufferance Beetween Fakie and nollie
IanSkatesVA Sufferance?
-_- auto correct "difference"
Was giving you the benefit of the doubt. Since it made no sense, I asked.
IanSkatesVA .
+Manual Hands you are a merciful god
the ref and announcer should be banished and never be allowed to watch talk or participate in skateboarding ever again
Glory to God i don’t think you understand a thing about skateboarding and you don’t skate from the sound of it
Zach and you don’t understand a thing about UA-cam. Check the dates of the comments
Mike what about them lol
Zach you bothering someone about a 9 month old comment 🤡
Lol @Zack is right you people don’t skate and don’t know what it’s like 😂
Leave this stuff to the berrics please
Stage is too tight and theres no nollie halfcab. Halfcab's are fakies not nollies. This competition is not very well designed.
"Extra pickles hammer patty flip" 😂 who tf exactly comes up with the tricks name? Speak up!
LMAO
Who ever makes the trick! Casper flips and other fun names are common
blegh ugly commercial contest. field is way too small. replay only on missed tricks, what the hell?
I will always love Chris Cole's style of skating... Every since the first time I watched him in the Toy Machine video like 15 years ago or so...
@@stevenwaeyen9251 I don't think he did
@@stevenwaeyen9251 i'm kinda wondering if he meant world industries?
TOTALLY DUDE!
so cringe
god this nerds wtf is cringe here dumbfuk
+rk26ful ref is calling out some of the names of the tricks wrong
q
Battle of the berrics is better
Two of the greatest skaters ever! Interesting to see completely different styles with how they pop, flip, and even catch their tricks!
That first treflip was the most beautiful and cleanest thing I’ve ever seen
as much as i enjoy seeing them skate together, this whole circus feels ridiculous and pointless, starting with these shitty commentators all down to this mall crowd. i'm actually wondering why the top pros still take part in that. can't be the money... after all, what's 10k to them two?
Yeah, sponsors contract.
still a lot of money. As a skater you are finished with age, lets say 35 to 38 you're done. So Cole needs to keep the family provided for and thats why they need to build reserves for later times and invest. 10 K is a good grab for a few hours of work. When you grow up you realize it's about being able to provide for a family and you do a lot to achieve that.
What's 10k to them?
It's an extra 10k they didn't have before. I think Nyjah honestly just enjoys competition but someone like Cole who is married with kids in his 30s, $10,000 for one competition in one day can go a long ways. One day of "work" and you've got a huge portion of savings for your kid to go to college.
Seriously though, even if I were a millionaire (most pros are not) I would still gladly do a competition for 10k. How many people in this world get a chance to earn 10k in ONE DAY? Not many people.
Honestly. Prolly cuz of just the competition. Im pretty sure just cuz they got money doesn't mean they like to sit on they're asses all day
8:05 does he know what he's saying lol?
😂😂😂
"Nollie Half Cab Tre flip"
don't forget "full cab varial flip"
Sam Wright "nollie half cab heel"
Sam Wright flair kick flip back 180 big spin
Soooo coooolllllll
360 Inward Heelflip
6:12 that creepy shadow man on the background tho lol
*me remembering all the times i picked chris cole on freeplay in skate 3*
In my first playthrough of the game he was always beating me in contests
Good on defense.... was said more times than i can count
These judges don't know nothing about trick naming, nollie cab bigflip like its just a nollie bigflip. Also cab varial flip, its not a cab varial flip its a cabalerial 360 flip.
Yeah, that's what I was talking about.
I just call it a cabalerial 360 flip. *****
Yeah, agreed! *****
Daniel Williams *Bigger flip
actually they do know... it's tim o'connor
8:05 "nollie ... halfcab bigspin"
larrybambz that man looked like he was about to cry . I meant sounded *
Watched this 5 years ago when skating was my life as a baby teen. 20 now and youtube wanted to help me relive the old days. Thank you. Now gonna go watch the berrics😂
hope you're still on the board
5 years already...
THANK GOD it hasnt been done again.
"Nollie Halfcab Treflip" wtf?
Also: There is no Nollie (Half)Cab…
This reminds me of a game of skate at the Braille house
they are a bit better than the braille guys
ichgovastolorde a bit?!?!?
Tomer Nuriyev just a bit better
Eden majer is way better and more professional than braille in my opinion
accept with REAL skategods lol
wtf a "full cab varial flip"
dude behind chris cole at 1:46 looks like chris cole
Nyjah is a skateboarding samurai: extremely disciplined, thorough, clean, and completely dedicated to his craft. A prime example of someone who listened to their life's calling and did what he was born to do.
Lol…
@FAKETAXI SRT4 shut up
@FAKETAXI SRT4 Nyjah definitely wanted it man, listen to his 9 Club interview.
I love that all the replays are of the misses.
I didnt know there were more than 3 skateboard tricks
Cancer Cancer there are a shitload actually + variations
@@ridzuansukri1646 why are you watching this?
@@druidofthefang Wait you kids can do more than kickturns now????
A n’ollie. What??!!! 😂
@@elliottlazary8207 it's just called "nollie" lol
9:11 Nothing in skateboarding is 'sassy'. Can the commentators get anymore lame?

here lays skateboarding it will be missed
Mathias Fruhmann wat
11:00 Nollie cab heel. You would think that they would get a ref who actually knew what he was talking about.
Lol and 6:20. Nollie halfcab treflip.
Isaias Brown I know right? I could do a better job than this guy.
dont forget full cab varial or nollie half cab bigflip
Mario Barone Did he really say nollie half cab bigflip? lol
haha yea for nollie bigflip lmao
Oh man, I quit skating about 8 years ago, but watching this makes me wanna get a new board and start doing some tricks again
+CoproManiac im 28 and still skate.. that is when my ankle heals more
Hope you got insurance.
people stop skating after watching this usually
Go get one bro skate as much as you can if this makes u happy
@@gra_potemkin why?
I can do that nollie 540 flip- you just need to do a half circle forward, then push, B, A, X, then push the stick back.
Shouldn't you have to call out the trick you're going to do?
In basketball, when playing HORSE, the players need to say what they're going to do, in order to eliminate luck (aka making something you weren't planning on doing)
Where are there helmets?!?
THERE THERE THERE THERE THERE. Looks like you should have used a helmet back in the day.
CRiNiCx N1
Nick Gomez More like poser skaters DON'T wear helmets, and youre one
Alvsen Blomqvist i don´t know a single pro skater that´s wearing a helmet (at least in video parts). It just doesn´t look as cool. But calling everyone wearing a helmet a faggot is just the most ignorant thing you could possibly do (Nick Gomez)
CRiNiCx True, altough the pros know how they should bail for minimal damage. My point is, maybe you shouldn't always go the way the "pros" do.
Tray flip first tra-EEEEEY
Im aaron kyro im sponPRO skateboarder frome the san francisco bay are
Haha..
12:32 Zerkaa is impressed.
Julius Reed Josh Zerkaa?
Now we know nyjah doesnt like hardflips
All these moves are so easy to screw up props to them...
I can't even watch this. Listening to the ref or w.e he thinks he is, is too painful
Videos great if you mute it
"nollie 540 flip" boyyy nyjah was going for a nollie bigger flip ! 💀😂😂
"Nollie half-cab Tre flip" and "Nollie 540 flip" wrong each time xD
I wanna see Carlos Lastra go against Nyjah Huston.
While I can't even Ollie
way over produced, if you wanna watch a competitive game of skate just watch battle at the berrics...
this is the saddest thing I've ever seen
im confused... why cant nyjah hardflip
MrBrN197 cuz its hard
The way they catch the board makes it looks so much easier than it actually is
Готовьте площадку для Моргенштерна и Кизару.
Such a weird format, looks like they should be fighting to the death on that platform lol...Some dbz cell saga type shit
Not that I don't like the idea, but it somehow seems wrong to turn something as casual as a game of SKATE into something this big with the raised arena and a judge and everything.
anyone notice cole is now riding a blank board?
He left zero
I know that's my point
I'm glad he left Zero. He had the ugliest style on the Zero team (imo).
John Rynhart
really? I think your one of the few.
John Rynhart Deven Dang Ahahah Chris Cole had the best style !!
Playing skate is my favorite thing about skateboarding. Everyone learns each others tricks. I couldn't kickflip and my buddy would always get that one on me. But I would always get bigspin on him. Skate games are the best way to compete against your friends.
1:56 Nollie half cab heel call lol not cab if its nollie
"Nollie halfcab heel"=nollie fakie 180 heelflip :')
I feel like the ref had it out for Chris cole
I could watch this all day.
I like how humble Nyjah was at the end
hey, can anyone tell the song at 10:45?.. sounds like a remix of tainted love or something
isnt a cabalerial a rotation in FAKIE? how how he calls cab when a nollie bs/fs trick is done? someone explain
cab is only fakie to fakie 360 ollie ,named after steph caballero
if it´s a nollie 360, you just call it a nollie 360 kickflip
yea i thought so.
So why are the commentators saying CAB when he did a nollie 180 trick?
because he has no plan about skating :D
he also said fakie half cab 540 flip instead of fakie biggerflip^^
lmao. wow
nollie 360 is called helipop
2:45 the man said "butters" 😂😂😂
This is stupid, berrics should be the only game of skate competition
This is like horse but for skating
I can't believe Chris didn't land that "nollie halfcab bigflip"
