Alexis should have told Poe Pinson not to bother with the 540. It was not the trick to do.

Aww really wanted the Aussie to land the 50-50 kf.

Interesting to see how affected people were by nerves (apart from Coco). Eg. Ryassa settling for a flip fa board when in Street League best trick sections she has done flip fs blunt.

Chinese girl got robbed.
Fishy scoring for rayssa’s flip front board but overall - good shit.

Agree the flip fs board was a bit over scored but Ryassa only needed an 80+ to take third so did the clever thing.

Steeziest thing ever done at Olympics

Saw the Rayssa run with the back lip at my sisters house. Very smooth.

Didn’t see anything else as I’d just dropped around her house on my way back from Oulton.

Immediate self-props though. Points off, surely?

Honestly thought she was kidding herself with that. It’s far from my favourite trick but down a legit rail it’d pretty gnarly. Two more goes and she probably would have done it. Possible ender down Hollywood 16 for the next April video?

Yeah i guess but didn’t the worlds greatest street skater article advise a celebration?

Liz Akama’s fs 270 switch fs board slide was dope too.

The other girl looked like she was trying fs crooks nollie flip out on the rail?!

lol. Bit militant. Imagine being a 14 year old girl knowing you’ve just won Olympic gold and unnecessarily did the best trick of the contest when you didn’t need to.
Plus the Japs are way modest (Ginwoo excepted) than most of the other people involved. Let Coco have her moment :wink:

Nah she was trying front crook. It’s her trick.
She had the cover of Thrasher doing it first try recently. Wish she’d boy the yellow Shake Junt grip off though.

That stupid pattern inside the three point line makes the basketball quite unpleasant to watch.

Who does Poe Pinson skate for?
Had a look on her ig and not giving me anything.

She’s on There
