Skateboard street is a style of skateboarding that takes place on a course simulating urban terrain using everyday objects such as curbs, stairs, handrails, benches and quarter pipes as obstacles. Skateboarders use these obstacles to perform a variety of tricks, grinds, and slides, often combining multiple maneuvers into a single trick. Skateboard street requires a high level of creativity, adaptability, and technical skill, as riders must be able to navigate the urban landscape and perform tricks with precision and control. Competitions in skateboard street involve riders performing a series of timed runs, with judges evaluating the difficulty, execution, and originality of their tricks.

We need malto back talking
@xgames the commentator said “Nollie cab” please do better. Smdh
The commentary is a joke
I miss Gary
Great skating. Terrible commenting.
Alex, can you please stop talking so much
These commentators need to be replaced
8:00 I thought this person was just really small 🤣
The level just keeps going UP!! True sporting greatness right here. BRAVO!!
She is soooo annoying!!!
The braids have got to go my guy. You’re not black.
Plz fire the male commentator, that guy is so annoying and fake. also has the most normy takes on skating
I swear the judges need to make a no commentary version . They talk to us like we are all stupid and never seen skateboarding before 💀
The reason these two are still commentating is because they’ll tow the line.
Fans want some heavy hitter skaters in the booth that will call bullshit when they see it and will call the tricks.
Love Sora Shirai's style. That takes a lot of strength to stay bent that low.
Outside of Nyjah, USA skaters falling off now…in the contest world of skating.
Cordano is such a big dude. And i love that he always rocks the Ishod Air Maxes.
Do yourself a favor and just mute the video, these commentators are embarrassingly bad.
6:32 “ooh wow! Switch tailslide! He ended his run with a banger!”
/Random commentator chick that knows nothing about skating.
I just can’t… i got 9 minutes into the vid.
But that Emilia is ruining it all, she has no fcking clue what she is talking about
That lil girl is addicted to varial flips
8:17 Switch is not "..at least three times as hard…" For a person learning switch, sure, it's many times harder. But for professional skaters, once a trick is learned they have it. And sometimes, for some people, switch stance tricks can be easier.
Many tricks are naturally easier switch for most skaters.
Tricks you will always see done more often switch than natural stance: fs bigspin heel; fs bigspin; fs 360; nollie flip; nollie to grinds; heelflip front tail; front shuv bs nosegrind and on and on but you get the idea.
i thought onodera was a girl
Can we get snoop dogg to commentate
Commentators : if you are looking for the best skateboarder in the world , look no further
Felipe Mota next : bails his whole run 😂😂😂😂
And Jinwoo downsized the size of his socks. Now he has to upsize the size of those shorts 😂😂
Nyjah definitely didn't deserve 1st. Absolute nonsense. Judges playing favorites
Man Nyjah keeps doing same tricks for every contest sorry not sorry , it’s getting boring
method man be like i love this chiba chiba
sora broke saskis vibe there bro not cool 37:05 taped his bord looked at him like that… mid run
Bring Malto back.
Where is Yuto
Insta a.i. voice would be a better commentator
There was a sleeping baby next to me. I slapped it and listened to the crying for 45 minutes because it was better than this announcing.
gravyyyyyyyy
Nah nyjah should've lost to like 3 skaters at least, insane scoring
Kaire netsukes hair is so sick!
So enjoyable not having Gary Rogers being annoying af all event
All these yuto off springs skate the same no style
Nyjah is legit the goat, that was crazy, he knew exactly what to do.
All i want to hear is what the skaters are doing as theyre doing it. Nobody wants to hear you talk about homies braids
Track and field?
Am I going crazy or something? Why are Ginwoo’s run not getting scored higher? Someone help explain it to me…
Where is Chris Cole ? and why Ginwoo’s run is not BEST ???
