SOTY thread

I didn’t like Elijah Berle’s output that much.

My top most enjoyable output this year was:

Westgate.
Alex Ramirez.
Durao.
Greyson Fletcher.
Deedz.
Foy.
Special mention for Andy Anderson.

Berle/Foy/Tiago…feel I’ve seen it all before but I enjoyed Foy’s down flat back up rail so putting him in my list for that…and he’s fucking sick obviously. Can’t bet against Foy but it’s gonna be Berle surely?

It’s gonna be Berle for sure, Thrasher are really pushing him.
Foy deserves it far more in my opinion.

Anyway, my SOTY is Riley Pavey for taking the piss at Street League, or Alexis Ramirez for being super productive and dope with zero filler in any of his parts. He’s quite the underdog though, there’s no way Burnett is giving him the trophy.

Well, he’s not in the list they just put up for a start!

Completely agree though. Dude has been ripping for too long now and is completely slept on by the industry.

Yeah such a shame to see some really average yet trendy skaters getting proper shoe deals and colourways when he doesn’t even have a proper shoe sponsor!

It was would so stinking if it was Berle. I didn’t even think his parts were that impressive compared to Foy and Tiago. He just does gnarly 5050s in bad fitting trousers. It also looks quite desperate copying Miles Silvas by going to SF and hitting the same rail for his ender.

If Berle is getting it (as it appears he is) then I’d say Foy or Hoban are objectively gnarlier and more deserving in his ‘bracket’ (yuck).

Maybe let’s have a death match between those three on a massive rail to decide it

That Berle part could be gnarly enough to do it but fucking hell it reeks of trying hard to get it.

People need to rewatch Gabbers White Flag part

Jhanka Gonzales was way more gnarly than Berle and much better style .

How can Berle just drop one part and swan in and take it? Pisses all over the foy fireworks, I am not happy about any of this

His part wasn’t even that good to be honest

Agreed, Foy for me

Obligatory ‘It’s the Thrasher Skater of the Year, not the ‘Best Skater of the Year’ award’ comment.

He did put out two FA parts this year as well:

Watch him 5050 his way to SOTY!

Probably the correct result.

Although Tiago would have been nice.

I’d really like Foy to put out a Kalis-style plaza/ledge part. He’s so so good at ledge stuff
