YUP! There's no way he isn't getting SOTY! He definitely earned it! Like, WHOA! 😱 the cab switch nose grind melted my face! There was a few tricks that had me trippin!
Suciu went full Mason this year, except instead of spaceing 5 parts out over a year he’s doing 4 over the last 5 weeks to secure the late ballot stack, kind alike Kelly said
@Jon Jones 0331 USMC dilo is exciting and he really stepped it up in that new part…but that’s not how SOTY is won. Mark has put in the work (to say the least) and he’s been deserving of it for years.
@Jon Jones 0331 USMC IMO All of Sucius parts this year have been great. This one he just dropped has like a long handrail montage that just utter flames.
@Jon Jones 0331 USMC haha well you are definitely entitled to your own opinion. But being that suciu is ALL quality and Has All the quantity, that doesn’t make reasonable sense. Do your thing mate 🔥
Suciu 100% SOTY. As for the question of SOTY or Olympic Medal.. Not even a question. Skateboarding has and always will be about self expression. Coming up back in the day no one except my peers respected what we were doing, so why now should we accept that recognition. Not that it isn't progression laid by all those that have come after, but that medal isn't going to let you skate that spot any longer. SOTY is recognition by the only judging body that matters, those pushing the art form and the ones living the life.
FOUR banger parts in five weeks and this last one is a top 10 all time part. So crazy how much he's put out this year. Some pros would work all year just to get close to what Suciu just put out.
When they discussed what is more of a pull for winning SOTY: Winning at the Olympics or recognition and respect for the very hard work/dedication to street skating, here's where the answer is: If winning the Olympics wasn't a big enough reason to get his own pro model shoe, it shouldn't be big enough to make him SOTY. Here me out: look at the skaters with pro shoes out, even with Mason Silva whom maybe got a colorway(maybe not) for winning SOTY. Yes i personally believe street parts are worth more than a contest because anyone could have a good/bad day, and it takes just one mistake to go from first to last. And the Olympics were almost a very over glorified SLS stop, but filming a part can take as little or long as you want, and the makes can be done as many times as needed to look as one wishes. When the part comes out, thats yours to own as the blood, sweat, and tears of your talent where you're "not suppose" to skate in society's eyes, yet youve come through to showcase amazing tricks at equally amazing spots. And in Yuto's case, he is both a great street skater and contest skater, and in Japan he is now blowing up HUGE for his Olympic win. Why not capitalize on that with a shoe? Dude's put in the work, and the sales would be great, even with those whom dont skate as hes an icon in Japan right now, and has lots of fans in skating...yet Nike isnt considering a shoe for him. So if its not enough to get a shoe on Nike compared to those with shoes and why they have them, it shouldn't be treated as anything more than another contest win. However, if he does get SOTY as it would have an underlying motive (possibly paid for by Nike) to glorify him especially in Japan as "the skater who won gold, also won as SOTY", it would do nothing but good for Nike especially with him skating Jordans and being able to continue to sell those without royalties to Yuto...everyone wins. And dont anyone come tell me "SOTY isnt rigged/doesnt have underlying motives"...be smarter than that. Yes a LOT of SOTY winners earned it, however some didnt seem to be that way.
if he doesn’t win SOTY then the state of skateboarding is in fucking shambles. all due respect to Milton Martinez but Suciu could have easily won SOTY that year too. he’s a two time SOTY winner already in my opinion.
Well dubs got his wish.. Mark dropped another part today lol hes fuckin working something serious. Todays video is long and has sooo much shit in it. He just keeps leveling up. Marks power meter is full right now, just blinking SPECIAL READY.. SPECIAL READY lol Mark is killing it 💯
He DESERVES SOTY!! Who else has put in that much work,tech,flow,creativity,content?? Yuto is amazing but not on master level he has much evolving to do..
@@drids. agreed but I feel like Thrasher would catch onto that by now. I’m sure they review everything they did that year. But for audience voting it’s definitely a smart strategy
suciu, yuto for 1st and 2nd and chima as a honorable mention for soty. that chima vans part was actually insane especially after watching the raw cut. yuto with his two parts and gold medal is amazing but man…SUCIU IS SOTY HANDS DOWN
I think he's def soty but to not even mention Louie Lopez is a crime. He's been ripping and has been my pick the last two years. Gotta give to to Mark this year though.
Poll: Who does harder tricks? Imo Yuto does gnarlier, cleaner hard tricks. Mark does more creative, unique hard tricks. Idc about volume, but difficulty.
I don't really know how anyone can tell whether Suciu's tricks or Yuto's are harder, they're both fucking unique and hard, both are doing shit nobody else is doing. I mean, almost all of those rail tricks from today's videopart are beyond impossible.
The Olympics aren’t that important to skater of the year one contest doesn’t make you soty. Like Phelps said about Chris Cole he won all the contest the berrics flat ground challenge and most importantly killed it in the streets all year long. Every soty I’ve know to get it is what they did in the streets that year. And Yuto with that nollie 3 front board on Hollywood high with the whole part he put out is something to put him in the running. To thrasher it’s all about the streets Phelps said it best in bust or bail intro “We’re about skating here and now!”
Here you go, feel free to replace them with your picks… 1990: Tony Hawk 1991: Danny Way 1992: John Cardiel 1993: Salman Agah 1994: Mike Carroll 1995: Chris Senn 1996: Eric Koston 1997: Bob Burnquist 1998: Andrew Reynolds 1999: Brian Anderson 2000: Geoff Rowley 2001: Arto Saari 2002: Tony Trujillo 2003: Mark Appleyard 2004: Danny Way 2005: Chris Cole 2006: Daewon Song 2007: Marc Johnson 2008: Silas Baxter-Neal 2009: Chris Cole 2010: Leo Romero 2011: Grant Taylor 2012: David Gonzalez 2013: Ishod Wair 2014: Wes Kremer 2015: Anthony Van Engelen 2016: Kyle Walker 2017: Jamie Foy 2018: Tyshawn Jones 2019: Milton Martinez 2020: Mason Silva
I find the talk of “he won an Olympic medal” to be kinda strange. I mean we’ve seen better skaters in other competitions doing crazier shit and we never took that into account when deciding who is SOTY, I know the Olympics is prestigious but first of all it’s not much different to other competitions and would people be seriously saying Nyjah would deserve SOTY if he won the olympics?
After todays drop, Definitely SOTY.
YUP! There's no way he isn't getting SOTY! He definitely earned it! Like, WHOA! 😱 the cab switch nose grind melted my face! There was a few tricks that had me trippin!
Absolutely
I just hope he still puts out a ton of footage after he gets it
Yuto
@@rickyjames1659 it was nollie 360 5-0
Chima needs a honorable mention for that vans part.
The RAw off that part of 35 minutes really makes you appreciate it.. Maybe they could have Co-SOTY this year??
Chima is the People’s Pick. He’s my SOTY.
It's kinda funny now that Mark & Yuto are competing for SOTY but Yuto totally won the Olympics with the Suicu grind 😂
And just like that he dropped another one today...
And a long one with insane tricks again...he is crazy
BAM has a part out next week
Suciu went full Mason this year, except instead of spaceing 5 parts out over a year he’s doing 4 over the last 5 weeks to secure the late ballot stack, kind alike Kelly said
I feel like mark does that every year lol
GUYS HE DROPPED ANOTHER 1.
I came here to say this. Homie is making every other skateboarder look lazy.
Yea its crazy
Flora, dudes not human
and its gnar than all 3
Suciu just dropped another! Suciu got this!
We got one more to drop
Mark has it in the bag… especially with his part he just dropped today. 🔥🔥🔥
@Jon Jones 0331 USMC dilo is exciting and he really stepped it up in that new part…but that’s not how SOTY is won. Mark has put in the work (to say the least) and he’s been deserving of it for years.

@Jon Jones 0331 USMC back at cha mate! Have a radical weekend 🌀 🛹 🌀
I literally saw this after the next part they’re talking about.. that’s how fast he’s putting footage out
crap bullshit is easy to push out your ass on the daily
@@andrefrauenknecht8190 sorry , but there is nothing easy about Suciu’s skateboarding . If it’s that easy where’s your part?
@@jedlynch4820 I think he's talking about his own skating. 😉

Well said
Kelly not comprehending why someone would work hard with no expected outcome is so fucking funny lol
dudes a joke
"If he has another video part coming part come out before the end of the year... I mean come on... what are we talking about?" -Dubbs
1000%
Word ;)
On the show, when asked about SOTY, Mark said "This year." The hosts thought he was joking..
FOUR banger parts in five weeks and this last one is a top 10 all time part. So crazy how much he's put out this year. Some pros would work all year just to get close to what Suciu just put out.
He just dropped another video haha
the crazy thing is the newest video part is the gnarliest one of them all and this was before that
Hahaha and he still have couple week left for another one 😂 SOTY!!!
I have no doubt he could do that if he wanted.
Definitely need an emergency meeting about the newest drop.
I said SOTY after the part w the 360 nose grind ender! That shit was classic, I was joking that he is now doing the suciu blunt lol
You have to do a comment on Flora III. So yes he did drop another part Kelly. Our wishes have been fulfilled!!
It is Suciu season, you can't deny it.
Chima as honourable mention.
Bro that 540 flip at 1:00 was beautiful!
GIVE HIM THE DAMN TROPHY ,that part today 🤯
Everyone made really enlightening points! Love you ppl!
If Suciu isn’t SOTY it’s so rigged.
Agreed
💯
Literally just released a new video part lmao
After watching Flora I don’t think there’s any question now
I can’t even drop a 30 second clip I’m over it 🤦🏻♂️😂
@12:35 ask and you shall RECIEVE!
This is old news now lol mark cant be stopped
Can't believe this man dropped 4 parts... but so did Yuto I'm hyped to watch all these now 🔥
Watch the one from this morning and let’s talk about the fuckery that goes on there !!!
I want to see the reaction to his Flora part. This part blew me away, but then I watched Flora and I’m at home sick now because of all the nastiness.
That Nollie N-Word heel Firecracker was SIIIIIICK!

This.
The irony bro. They both dropped new parts wtf
that back disaster, 270 drop was fire!!!
I figured out blubba was across the street from the courthouse on Law & Order LOL
if he doesn’t win SOTY then the state of skateboarding is in fucking shambles. all due respect to Milton Martinez but Suciu could have easily won SOTY that year too. he’s a two time SOTY winner already in my opinion.
Suciu was robbed that year.
Quality > quantity
Well dubs got his wish.. Mark dropped another part today lol hes fuckin working something serious. Todays video is long and has sooo much shit in it. He just keeps leveling up. Marks power meter is full right now, just blinking SPECIAL READY.. SPECIAL READY lol Mark is killing it 💯
I'm pretty sure he said he had more parts coming out this year and it was a soty run
guys we’re not talking “Marc” Johnson, we’re talking Mark Suciu
good timing considering Flora
bro, i didnt want to listen to 15 minutes of soty talk, i wanted to hear them comment on suciu's part. they barely said anything about this part.
but to clarify, suciu should be soty, yuto is second but suciu should win.
While you were discussing Spitfire Video Marc has released another part
What's a soft enough skate wheel for tricks and really rough ground?🛹
Don’t worry Kelly…I also call it Nollie cab and so do other legendary skaters like Geoff Rowley, Reynolds and Cole
Click bait didn't discuss any of the highlights. Only discussed dropping parts.
He DESERVES SOTY!! Who else has put in that much work,tech,flow,creativity,content?? Yuto is amazing but not on master level he has much evolving to do..
First time a skate video reaction comes out outdated
6:14 it's fucking better lol. He is the small handrail god.
Chima dropped another no filler all thriller today...
Poor john dilo putting out five parts to see suciu do him like that
Riddle me this; What is a fakie switch nollie double cab?
chimas part no filler every trick was a banger
I'm sure he's not late twenties I think he's only just 20 or something which is even more insane
He’s def aiming for that
Yutos spitfire part is pretty insane
Yuto the only other I can think of and he wld have to drop something super heavy!
to me skate contests mean nothing
Word is they have demolished the marble hubba spot because he literally destroyed it!
Another part makes it a 100% SOTY
crazy how dilo is never in those soty talks after dropping 5 crazy parts
The formula is to put out everything together in the end of the year. It’s been like that for a while now.
@@drids. agreed but I feel like Thrasher would catch onto that by now. I’m sure they review everything they did that year. But for audience voting it’s definitely a smart strategy
@@drids. silva won soty with 5 parts spread out throughoug the year
Yeah, such a shame really. He killed it tihs year.
The Nine club ✴✴✴✴✴ and Mr.Roberts 🤭
today speciiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiial 🤭🤭🤭🤭
Clearly Mike v is about to drop the heat last second
chima!!!! he got my vote for sure
I mean, would it be a rail SOTY? ledge SOTY? overall SOTY, idk but Suciu is def on another level
Some guy if skating styles were to be taken into consideration, you know? Rather than as “overall” skating idk
Well yall got another one to review!! Lmao
suciu, yuto for 1st and 2nd and chima as a honorable mention for soty. that chima vans part was actually insane especially after watching the raw cut. yuto with his two parts and gold medal is amazing but man…SUCIU IS SOTY HANDS DOWN
Chima supposedly has another part coming soon
Why not switch Cab?
SOTY For Real right now
Nothing but lines.
Watching this AFTER Mark drops Flora 3... Oh I can't wait for tTHAT reaction video. 😎
6:09 what if I told you…
I think he's def soty but to not even mention Louie Lopez is a crime. He's been ripping and has been my pick the last two years. Gotta give to to Mark this year though.
Yuto vs Mark
Roge says what's up......the other 3, not so much.
They did a great job of waffling on about nothing rather than actually focusing on mark suciu and the awesome part he put out.
I could see Yuto snagging it because the whole gold medal thing but I feel like Saucey Toes has it.
Thrasher and the olympics are pretty much the opposites so I don't think Yuto has a chance of winning soty.
If Nyjah never got it during his domination in contests whilst releasing insane parts then it be a shame if yuto got it over Mark
He is soty! He has three parts! Yuto needs to come out with another one to beat suciu
why its all average skating its not very good at all
@@andrefrauenknecht8190 this man for HOTY
@@andrefrauenknecht8190 what ?! Lol i know u talking out yo ass
jeron speaking nothing but the truth 6:09
I'll ride with you with the varial player but this might be my stop 😂.
3 parts in 4 weeks... Wouldn't that make him skater of the month?....
Member Milton?
5:39 fucking right
Mark Suicu: my only other favorite skater since mike Carroll
I agree with Kelly Hart, nollie cab
Poll: Who does harder tricks? Imo Yuto does gnarlier, cleaner hard tricks. Mark does more creative, unique hard tricks. Idc about volume, but difficulty.
That’s the thing
I don't really know how anyone can tell whether Suciu's tricks or Yuto's are harder, they're both fucking unique and hard, both are doing shit nobody else is doing. I mean, almost all of those rail tricks from today's videopart are beyond impossible.
@@yairfarias7489 totally agree. But...if you had to vote.. How do you decide?
@@mindlander I'll go with Suciu just because he's been killing it for years. Yuto will probably get it eventually.
Yutos are much harder and cleaner imo. Sucio is excellent for sure. But Yuto is risking his life down massive rails and gaps. And his tricks are tech
Chima is SOTY
Tough battle this is
Chima, Kyle Walker, Dilo, Figgy...Decenzo

I would rather have SOTY than a gold medal from the Olympics.
