X Games 17: Nyjah Huston takes Gold in Men's Skateboard Street Final

[froskate]

Dude you know Nyjah's a boss when he SAYS that he'll take the gold and the he actually DOES it.

[nothingtoskateinohio]

hes amazing but he honestly has no style

[LexHeinwitz]

@nothingtoskateinohio style meaning what? his clothes?

[nothingtoskateinohio]

@LexHeinwitz the way his tricks look. he always looks like hes about to fall when he lands. he looks all awkward and unbalanced. and they way he sets up looks like he trying to get half a toenail on the board. yeah hes good but the tricks dont look good

[IcelandicLoveBoat]

KONY 2012

[thealekmonster]

i think his style's a little goofy, but whatevs. that was a really cool run

[SavageScooter21]

is that tony hawk who is talking with the other dude

[foundationdecksmang]

i agree with unitedskatesomerica

[UnitedSkatesOmerica]

Consistency is one thing but hes not doing anything new just the same old tricks over and over again.

[LexHeinwitz]

@UnitedSkatesOmerica fuck outta here yo. The tricks that he does are incredibly difficult to pull off. No other skater can do it as fluid as Nyjah. Of course he'll be doing the same tricks that he's comfortable doing to win the tournament. I will always respect the skater who can actually do his tricks 90% of the time than a skater who needs 10 trys to do it.

[UnitedSkatesOmerica]

@LexHeinwitz its just not advancing the sport, i want to see something new, his video part didnt drop anything new

[TrixR4Bosses]

@LexHeinwitz some yes like that kick bs tail big out the rail. other shits been done except a few. but his consistientcy is spot on. But of course as u said he does the same ton so he has em on lock. believe me if he did some other shit he would fuck up. so no I LOVE SKATING& if its great idgaf how long it take. of course u get more praise if it dont take long depending on the trick. in reality luans more talented etc. hes def 1 of the best but as he showed but others r all rounded

[MrDmCx]

i wounder how baked he was during this

[foundationdecksmang]

@MrDmCx your dumb

[LexHeinwitz]

@foundationdecksmang lolz thinking the same thing

[cmonCOLBY]

nyjah the greatest

[spookyluke555]

yes good on em he said he was gonna do it take gold and well he done it good for em

[Davi7696]

[MrAwesome051]

[bigweiner71]

[vini105871]

[LMTR14]

[MrKjrrcod]

[aznerd999]

man skating would be so much more fun if I could do all those tricks

[NParker87]

That was nasty. Mad props.

[TheRealAndrewSloan]

yeeeh boi

[skate8709]

what!? kickflip bs tailslide big spin out!? wow that trick alone would've given him first place, that was amazing!

[SuperEJ911]

Nyjah Huston = BEAST

[ZachBeauvais]

Its quite clear why he took gold. Such flow and consistency.

[JustSkateAllDayy]

so inspiring(:



[1ZmonZ1]

He could do a berrics bangin in a line

[hyrykyty]

[jimmyjazz95]

Luan's run was better

[SkatePlanBProLite]

that was a HUGE nollie flip holy

[espltdm155]

the announcers don't know shit. it was a nollie heel not a nollie flip. and it was a kickflip backlip, not kickflip frontboard

[xwabrx]

@espltdm155 wat r u talking about they didnt say anyhting about the kickflip backlip

[Bjwadells]

Why are all the suggestion videos about winter x games? wtf!



[miosgreenday]

0:16 that was a nollie heel not a nollie flip

[buggld]

Where's his hair?!?!

[shadow23110]

@buggld cut his hair most of it is under his snapback

[rodo11000]

@buggld in your butthole

[thathatguy1]

@buggld thats some old news man your a lil late he cut that shit off when street league was going on...

[greysenG10]

@buggld he cut it like a year ago

[ScootersBros]

@buggld cut it days ago

[TeckG93]

The best skateboarder in the WORLD SON FUCK YOU ha

[mikeisradasfuck]

mouwi wowwi!

[LexHeinwitz]

Nyjah is the sickest skater our right now. I mean he does his tricks consistently including 9.0 - 10 scale tricks. No other skater is as consistent as he is. He is the best hands down!

[skateswitch10]

@LexHeinwitz have u seen p-rod that guys just as cosistent

[skatefreak35]

@skateswitch10 I can't believe that I had to thumbs that down :(

[LexHeinwitz]

@skateswitch10 I'm not saying he's a bad skater, but he hasn't shown any consistency in the street league tournaments. He's ranked 8 in the 2011 street league and hasn't been showing good scores @ each stop. If you look at Nyjah, he won 3 out of 4 stops in the 2011 street league tournament.

[ismelljello]

@LexHeinwitz cough cough Kennedy cough Luan.... >_>

[LexHeinwitz]

@ismelljello ?

[ismelljello]

@LexHeinwitz ZCory Kennedy and Luan Oliviera

[vususn]

@LexHeinwitz Nyjah is for sure a BEAST! And this VID sure got my THUMP UP!

But you can not messure skateboarding! Sorry! Thump down for this comment!

[tehbossasian]

@LexHeinwitz 9.0-10 scale tricks...hop off street league that is not the reason hes the sickest skater out right now.

[Bjwadells]

@LexHeinwitz That only means he's just the best consistent skater. I wouldn't exactly say that he's the best overall considering the fact that each skater has their own unique attributes to the sport that no other skater can do or replicate.

[LexHeinwitz]

@Bjwadells Nyjah won 90% of street league tournaments last year and got gold at x games. I think being consistent in these mega tournaments shows how much you can drop your tricks when the pressure is on and everything is on the line. I agree, there are skaters out there who have unique tricks of their own but how many pull them off in tournament scenarios. Nyjah surpasses every skater, he's solid and dominates each tournament with consistence like no other, hands down, truly the fucking best.

[heisenberg1995]

@LexHeinwitz he maybe good but he has no style

[LexHeinwitz]

@heisenberg1995 style? wtf does style have to do with being fucking solid as a beast!

[heisenberg1995]

@LexHeinwitz are u fuckin retarded hes an amazing skater all i said is he has no style so stfu up u lil queer

[b4steeze]

@heisenberg1995 no style ? are you a dunce?

[LexHeinwitz]

@heisenberg1995 Still didn't answer my question kid.

[tennisguy96]

@LexHeinwitz p rod is all i have to say

[LexHeinwitz]

@tennisguy96 p-rod although a good skater has nothing on nyjah huston at the moment. P-rod always falls short on these big tournaments where it counts.

[TrixR4Bosses]

@LexHeinwitz wtf? are u serious nyjah is more consistient atm but NEVER will see p rod or can do more than him. I rarely see nyjah doin switch except the SAME shit beast but still like 7 flip tricks etc. Paul does switch tricks in and outta grinds and skates both stances and touenaments AINT where it counts unless u have nothing more. pauls a millionare off skating with a way better career plus THE STREETS is where it counts and in parts. NYJAH was bent on winning and others dgaf

[ScreamAndSkate]

Did they just tell him to step it up?! Seriously xD

[mentalmonkeyball]

in real life he wins a gold in the x games. in skate 3, you get a 2 time multiplier

[KieranCreed]

He skates cleaner then i do on skate 3...

[AdhDgameplay]

i swear torey pudwill was skater of the year 2011?

[jkyet]

Best run in any contest. This guy works really hard. How come he wasn't skater of the year on 2011??

[Sonnyblack49]

What did he becomes?

Only a medal?

[RyanSocratous]

@Sonnyblack49 I think they win $75k dollars also.

[EverettPfeifer]

He's too good...

[Tuka1Joseh2]

\o/



[komatised1]

story?

[HIM666dark6light]

@cityprety He cut it off where else could it be?

[steezy12311]

xgames is cool but nothing can beat street league <3

[MeteorVids]

@samg013 can you not read?

[eazypeazylq]

the only reason he won is because he can actually see where he's going now

[DeazyHD]

how old is he?

[slipknotphyco]

@DeazyHD 17

[komatised1]

@DeazyHD 16-17

[MeteorVids]

[axacingdude]

@karenodie yeah you are

[Playmo1296]

[swagger9000]

i wonder why xgames doesn't require the skaters to wear helmets. they dont look cool when they dont. they look like assholes. great athletes, but assholes.

[keiontayw]

[BattleComander1]

[Nitrousx]

[soufianemoro]

Le skateboard est plus qu'un sport, c'est une philosophie, Un "Art de Vivre"

[skaterlux7]

kickflip backtail bigspin on a handrail .. OK.

[Qualitytap]

he cut his dreds ? <3

[kevbaka]

My God...



[Tenorsarefun]

lol. That announcer should pay better attention or know his tricks. That "nollie kickflip" at 0:15 was actually a nollie heelflip.

[KHWindSora]

I can do that....on THUG2......

[Brookskates]

cut his stupid dreads

[synemon]

damn he looks so much cleaner now with his haircut, i like it

[nwtipton]

[FreestyleSkierMikey]

[tomroylance]

@FreestyleSkierMikey I can't...

[SASKskates]

[GIRLANDLAKAIFORLIFE]

@FreestyleSkierMikey very original

[Gamenut321]

[skaterforlifes123]

[imaball]

[slyeezy]

ryan sheckler is the best !!!

[drewdogsk8life]

holy nollie heel.. wow

[RickGiesa]

huston we have a problem...

[re1nier]

Incredible.

[wiithepeople2]

i miss the dreads...

[ryceskate]

On top of the rail tricks, that nollie heelflip (I think), was insane. That's a high launch especially going into a bank like that. Such an epic run. It's amazing how he can do all those big tricks almost consistently.

[MrFreddiethorp]

where did his dreads go???:(



[jman4428]

@MrFreddiethorp to the trash

[mrkosilathi]

wow...and it takes me about 20 tries jus to get a clean tre flip :/...

[toymachine150]

0:15 HAHA that's a nollie heelflip

[SuperTomy123]

@toymachine150 your blind or just stupid?

[Gun5ounds]

there really shouldn't be commentators at all.

[cincinnatiscum]

@Gun5ounds agreed

[MrBlackwolf100]

Is not Nyjah Huston , is Ninja Huston

[iAmLem0ny]
