At the beginning of each round, each competitor sets a trick. The section judges score each trick out of 50, and since there are two judges (for each section), each trick will get a score out of 100. The person who's trick got the lowest score is eliminated, and the next round begins.

You have 5 days to film and set your trick before the deadline. Then the judges will have 3 days to judge.

~Necro

EDIT: You may have to wait a bit for it to work (processing times).

Zippy Videos link coming soon.

im switching my trick to freestyle... why the hell did i come up with seperated tricks. we should just throw out that part you do what you want each turn. and do a regular elimi anyone agree?

i dont know depends if the judges are up for it, because ollie based flips are judged diffrent freestyle work (not including ollie fips)

if were now mixing triks then how will they be judged fairly ?

easy flip- http://www.dropshots.com/day.php?userid=169529&cdate=20060827&ctime=231659

I like keeping this seperate - the added 'freestyle vs. street' competition at the end should be cool as well.

~Necro

necro you do have the point of it being more unique im going to start another one of just a free for all and judge this one ; p

I'd wait for this one to finish before creating a new one dude.

~Necro

Here it is in all it's glory :)

I have to back out of judging..and zack has to back out of the street thing because this computer wont upload stuff, and it wont play videos very well. My internet is getting set up in a few days on my other computer. Sorry guys, I did not know my internet was being taken off my other computer untill it was actually taken off. I am really sorry.

Yo Pathtek real quick, what was that song playing in the background when you did your trick? I know I've heard it before I just can't remember lol.

The Offspring - The Kids Aren't Alright
I had the truck running with Satelite radio playin' while I was skating (i usually do) BUT, I didnt even noticed I whistled to it until I edited the video..haha

Hey, real quick...isn't this round over?

haha yea ^^ i think it finished two days ago,

well judges, its up to you guys now..

Right now im watching all the vids. GOT MY COMPUTER HOOKED UP!!

Right, so (let me just get this straight), I'm judging the 3 freestyle tricks set here out of 50,presumably based on difficulty and style? And when for?

^^ yea but it looks like lazerflip didnt post his trick, so im guessing he would be out or given a extension, i dont know

but judge out of 50

yea i need a few days guys my camera has for some reason misteriously disapeared. probaly my sis again.

I think there should be a thread for the street and one for freestyle or are theese all together. Or is there gonna be one winner out of street and freestyle. Well it's just hard to see wich post is for street or freestyle. Oh and for the people who posted on youtube there fixing stuff so could yall put it up on media putfile or zippyvideos.

rad freakin crap

o yea i am really new to this website but it is so rad

YouTube's error is easy. Instead of going to http://youtube.com, go to http://www.youtube.com.

Worked for me. Anyhow - Lazerflip missed his trick, so here's a question, should we just eliminate two people this round, or just keep Lazerflip as the only one out?

~Necro

Eliminate 2! Lazerflip defaults himself..but SOMEONE who posted a vid, must be eliminated this round, for the competition purpose...

So I watched the three videos But I noticed Fatskater is not on the sheet. Do I need to still judge his trick? Well I have the scores in my head for Mike, and for the element kid. But I am not going to post them till I find out if I need to judge fatskater. And as for zack. He TOTALLY forgot about this so he will have his up by tomorrow I promise. Or ..do you just kick him out? He honestly forgot.

Who? Isn't this the list of people playing?

^ That kid right there..

And why dont we have LJs yet? And didnt Dead_omen switch to freestlye? Wow.

Wow! Under the radar, slipped it in..hahaha

I dont know where lj's is? and I thought omen wasnt switching

No, no one's switching, and let's the scores in!

~Necro

Right, don't know if I should be posting the scores up now, but if I'm not a mod can just remove them. Yeah, these are out of 50 but if you want a score out of 100... then you'll have to double it. Yeah, so:

Freestyle

Dead Sparrow: 23/50, I liked the crossfooted nose hook part, but the fumblings when in tail stop let you down a bit. Still a nice little combo

Lazerflip: 0/50, didn't post a trick

Necromortis: 36/50, a nice complicated combo, so you scored well on difficulty, but you spent too long in rail or tailstop. Loving the n/h 50/50 to rail part of the combo in particular

Kayce Shelton: 40/50, I really liked this, it was quick and original I felt. Scored high for style and well on difficulty. Knocked a few marks off for the 50/50 at the end though, That wasn't too stylish. Great trick though

Yeah, so those are the scores, and I left a few comments which might help the next time around :)

Who? Isn't this the list of people playing?

What about fat skater. Anyways my scores:
elementsk8r070: 39/50 Nice trick, but I didn't like the style.
Pathtek4: 32/50 Pretty sweet, but it hit the ground and kinda bounced then you landed on the board.

If I even have the power to, ill give Dead_omen, zack, and LJ one more day to post the tricks.


elementsk8r070: I must admit it looked as good as my moms brownies, which are good of course but I personally think mikes trick is a bit harder. So in saying ill give you a 35/50 and for Pathtek4: 38/50


Great job for you guys.

So can we go to the next round now.

Did this round even start?...sure seems like it with all the slow-ness going on!?

God, there's only one freestyle judge. So Dead Sparrow is knocked out, as is Lazerflip. So is Pathtek.

So that means 'elementsk8070' wins the street bit, while Kayce and I still need to duke it out once more. We have five days to film an post our set, meaning it's due on the 12th.

Let's get started.

~Necro

Congrats elementsk8r070!

Fastest win of a game in Skaterscafe comp section history haha

Mike let me hand it to you. *kicks in the butt*

haha just kidding. Good job thought mike! :]

Haha I don't really feel like a winner though. I wish the people that signed up actually submitted things so there could be more rounds.

Here is my new trick. Its a beanplant to rail to casper, witter flip to casper, witter flip to nose casper.

http://youtube.com/watch?v=wClZS7lzytc

My set's the last trick, apologies for the crappy editing, my WMM wasn't giving me previews and I had to work off of sound.

It's a rail handstand to gymnast plant 360 wheel whip to tailstop to NH 50-50 to rail to gymnast plant to tailstop to backhanded varial fingerflip out.

~Necro

Is the contest dead?

Pretty much, it was small anyways, 'cus barley anyone posted there videos.

... well there was supposed to be more rounds....... but oh well

FOZZZ...where are you? We want scores!

~Necro

Sorry, I had to move out and get my internet sorted and all that jazz. I've got to set up all these website's video players and stuff, I'll get back to you with scores within 24 hours :)

Actually, I can't I can't find Necro's video, so it might be longer

http://youtube.com/watch?v=wClZS7lzytc

The last trick in that video. The rail handstand to gymnast plant 360 wheel whip to tail to NH 50-50 to rail to gymnast plant to tail to backhanded varial fingerflip out.

~Necro

Right-o, here are the results:

Kayce Shelton: 34/50. Very stylish (up until the nose casper at the end) but for me just didn't seem to take the as great an amount of effort as:

Necromortis: 42/50. Very difficult and original, I liked it. What it lost in style (extended tailstops, etc) it made up for by being incredibly difficult and nicely executed on the whole. Nice job

http://www.dropshots.com/day.php?userid=169529&cdate=20060827&ctime=231659 its not me its by bf
