Im 45 and tony hawk was my hero when i started in my childhood. And for him to still keep hitting vert! No other xtreme sport star still doing it into their 50's. Hes the man.
@@maattttt07 shame on me. Yeah slater is still shredding it too. I think tony could easily surf. Im not sure slater could do a mctwist on the vert ramp though?
@ryans2118 Yes Slater is not a skater. I'm not sure Tony could still win a professional contest against the new generation of skaters though. Kelly Slater won the Pipe masters last year! Kelly is the Goat of all sports. Through 3-4 generations he has stayed on championship tour. Unparalleled Tony a legend too obviously but he's been out of the game at the highest level for a long time
Wow what did I just watch , stand up applause salute , I've been skating along time now 39 years ,and to see how far it's come , it's amazing , skateboarding the most technical sport in the world , and you never get use to the slams , so skating is the only thing Il let hurt me over and over again , salute to the new generation so gifted and fearless ,
every contest i see i cant help but being amazed by the level of progression women's skating is experiencing right now. also, japan is just killing it!
Wow, I swear Reese skates like Bob Burnquist in a little girl's body. Just fearlessly chaining no-grab and technical lip tricks. Spins and grabs get the crowd going, but it's these tricks I love to see.
There have been contests that were the greatest ever seen. This surpassed everything, Legends jam, Ladies🤗, Mens🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯 Utterly superb.
Witnessing the next generation tear up the place in glorious style; some of the best women's vert I've ever seen. Excellent! Can't wait to see where they all go next. 🛹
Awsm event is pretty to see female skater doing 1st 720 now i hope to see them doing a 900 soon, male skate was amazing i love to see Gui Khury doing a lot of 900 variatons, happy to see Mr. Tony Hawk landing a Mc twist like a 9 🙌🛹🤘😎
Jason Ellis is correct. These are some of the greatest athletes out there. Not too many are willing to put it out there like skaters. edit : Bull riding may be close.
An other sick video ! You guys need to to look up / to the end like on a slackline definitely gives you a better / faster ability to react to any movement.
Drew from Olympia WA ....what is the average deck size that the skaters overall use for vert and is there any size or specifications that are not allowed?
Your comment became a spoiler comment for me i haven't watched all finals yet but because your comment are top comment it is there below video even when not having comment section open : / : | , but yeah i know your probably didn't expect your comment to become number one comment and had not thought that it then might become kind of a spoiler comment,
Tony be like "I did this to keep vert alive". Well we need more vert ramps to keep it alive, so that not just californians can skate vert 😂. Would love to see a Utah skater make finals one day
Can someone please explain to me the decline of vert. It's the best way to skate and has been for over 40 years. I would way rather watch an amazing vert line than some street dude try the same trick 100 times until he makes it.
People are giving way too much credit for those bullshit below coping 720 attempts. Despite that slight nuisance this was a great watch and I'm really starting to get into vert.
Years ago, in the early days The Xgames I always wondered why there weren't more females in the sports. I'd always figured they could learn to do any trick a guy can do.😊 Now fast forward to the present time and there are a lot of females in the sport and they too are pushing the boundaries of skateboarding. 😊
I think they look at his spinning like he's a one trick pony... which is dumb. No one in the world can do what he's doing. He's young though. He'll show them.

Kelly Slater is still on the World tour of Surfing. He's 51

Good lord! The level of skating was insane. So rad.
Awesome event, loved to watch it. Looking forward to X Games! Thanks to everyone making this possible and congrats to all the finalists!
the height that these young kids are getting flying in the air on that halfpipe is insane!!!
every one of them were killing it!
This was totaly epic. 38 and back on my boards and back building boards thanks to watching the build up to this. 🤯🤪🤯🤙🤙
woman's finals... absolutely SICK. best sports good vibe I've ever had! girls are KILLING IT
it's like going to a techno rave. dancing / skating ... nothing else matters. not a single other thing!
such a great comfy content
That was awesome! The build up with the race to 1st women's 720 and Jason's reaction when Arisa got it!
'ohhh... that's the biggest olllie 5 _you'll_ ever see.' Gotta love Tony's commentary 😂
I'm definitely up for a version of this where they draw tricks out of a hat! (And would also love a Vert Alert jersey)
Such amazing skateboarding took place here! Wow! Thank you!!!
Nice to see Moto get first in best trick that was insane. He is so good I thought he should have won the last few competitions I watched honestly
Such a sick event, the level of vert skating is all time! Love it!!!
man, love to see the skate world going so strong, what a group of such amazing humans
2:31:58 I can't believe the camera missed the first female 720 lol
Absolutely amazing. I particularly enjoyed Tony Hawk's expert commentary on the tricks in real time!
Wow, I swear Reese skates like Bob Burnquist in a little girl's body. Just fearlessly chaining no-grab and technical lip tricks. Spins and grabs get the crowd going, but it's these tricks I love to see.
Love all of this great skating, watching at work on quiet days
I can't even!!! So Good!! such an awesome event..Thank you From SLC❤
Seeing my heroes again is always cool. Hosoi, hawk, McGill, Staab. 🤘🏻
That dude running back up the ramp was almost a trick in itself, impressive!
Go Ladies! Absolutely outstanding!

Utterly superb.

The girls have an insane amount of creativity. I can't get over it.
Go Bryce! Love all the crazy dancing she does on the coping!
This comp made me realise just how boring park and street is to watch. Long live vert!
Awsm event is pretty to see female skater doing 1st 720 now i hope to see them doing a 900 soon, male skate was amazing i love to see Gui Khury doing a lot of 900 variatons, happy to see Mr. Tony Hawk landing a Mc twist like a 9 🙌🛹🤘😎
that run by Tom was so sick!!!! and Reese!
Nice one Utah! I reckon we see full stands in a few years
Jason Ellis is correct. These are some of the greatest athletes out there. Not too many are willing to put it out there like skaters.
edit : Bull riding may be close.
Or freestyle motox, doing triple backflips and Misty flips 80 ft in the air on a 250 lb dirt bike
An other sick video !
You guys need to to look up / to the end like on a slackline definitely gives you a better / faster ability to react to any movement.
"What does a 10 year old do with 400 dollars?"
"Put it in their little pocket!" 😄
As a skater from the 80s I cant believe the level of skating now..Moto skates like Hosoi for sure.
Drew from Olympia WA ....what is the average deck size that the skaters overall use for vert and is there any size or specifications that are not allowed?
Those girls must have some of the most proudest fathers. Wow, the next generation look like they've been skating vert since nappies 😅
I have never seen women skate vert before, I am amazed 100%!
The switch backside 360 at 32:37 for example...amazing level!
Vert is mental! Vert Alert!!!
Really enjoyed watching the women! They are doing some great things
nose nollie flip in is fire
Moto deserved first place!
2:31:52 first women's 720!!
1:27:25 jimmy wilkins you are fking insane lol one of my faveriot skaters ever since u started doing no grab 540s
I have a feeling Mitchie Brusco will land that 900 at the Xgames in July!
YO MOTO GOT ROBBED AGAIN 🤯
He was the only one to get the highest air in the whole contest
You know better then Ueda and Frazier?
@@blender1188 YES. 1:27:57 and 1:37:11
Yes he did.

Never seen so many ads on a video in my life xgames must really really want to take everyone's money
Back in the day, I used to ride forty-four millimeter wheels whenever I would longboard.😊
A casual 900 mid run is unfathomable
vert skating is the greatest show on planet earth!
Awesome😍
Would have loved to seen a sack tap from someone!
Nosegrind fakie was my favorite. These commentators don't mention the dopeness of these tricks enough. Lot of unique lip tricks
Yeah Arisa, you legend!!
fantastic event for everyone! keep up the good work.
First: Moto Shibata
Second: Gui Khuri
Opinion
1:42:04 gi kurry does 720 to accidental backwards coffin
got this vid muted with the tony hawk proskater 1+2 soundtrack playing full blast in the background
youre welcome.
All these girls are shredding hard!
2:52:21 Absolutely mental
Tony is The GOAT
Bucky is insane!
1:57:25 Jimmy Wilkins has ally-oop ollies like no one ever....
style forever
Tony be like "I did this to keep vert alive". Well we need more vert ramps to keep it alive, so that not just californians can skate vert 😂. Would love to see a Utah skater make finals one day
what are the dimensions of tony's ramp?
So good too see
BIG UP ARISA
this is cool
1:31:04 Love the Mallrats quote 😂
Can't believe you guys dropped the ball on the 720
i was feeling like a lil b!tch for tearing up after seeing tony make that 540 mctwist... luv sk8boarding, street - vert -park - etc
I remember the boom boom huck james.😊
can you get skatelite griptape ?
for gods sake please have the announcer learn the skaters names
1:22:02 20 years ago if someone did a 900° he already be the champion
Bring back high air competition
It blows my mind how young some of the girls are to be killing it at this level of competition.
Can someone please explain to me the decline of vert. It's the best way to skate and has been for over 40 years. I would way rather watch an amazing vert line than some street dude try the same trick 100 times until he makes it.
This!!
expression and style are much more easily picked up on street tricks.
Very for newcomers can look extremely similar
Street has been a downer for me since it became rolling freestyle in the early 90’s. Yes, a grumpy old guy comment.
20+ years of vert ramps not being built
People are giving way too much credit for those bullshit below coping 720 attempts. Despite that slight nuisance this was a great watch and I'm really starting to get into vert.
Motoooooo!!!
Por qué no dieron esto en la televisión latina 😡
Great video panza guessing 2220 pieces of tape on that car for that bike man.
I think the young 14 year old deserved to be in the top 3 .
bom demais
Reeeeeese from Canada
tony hawk #1
so bad that the names are not under each run.
1:22:44 almost dropped da eff bomb
Come on Moto!!
Haven't seen it yet, but I predict women's best trick is a roll in, a mctwist, or some kind of basic plant.
Wow wow wow
It's crazy to me that the commentators are so close to the action but their backs are completely turned to watch it all on a monitor lol
tony hawks pro skater!!!!

Jason! You can't state your favourite as you're MCing an event! Lol
Sky Brown did a 720 out of the snake run in venice a few years ago. But a first 720 in competition? Sure.
~~~Ride on~~~
Moto robbed, super inspiring that Mitchie believes he can Kickflip 9 and Arisa killed it all together most impressive performance,
Good healthy childhood uses gliding on board
1:47:29
1:47:44
These judges just hate Gui Kurry. They shouldn't judge another thing. If judges had done this to Tony Hawk nobody would know who he is today.
I think they look at his spinning like he's a one trick pony... which is dumb. No one in the world can do what he's doing. He's young though. He'll show them.
