View Full Version : Skaterscafe World Cup GOS Discussion Thread
Roboman 09-06-2007, 09:13 PM I wonder what online games of skate would be like without technical tricks.
Just stuff like 360 flips, lazer flips, inward heels, fs flips.
I joined a SB-C game of skate. Not really because its based over there, but the style of skating of the members there is much less technical and I find it a little more fun. It all feels a little more achievable to match stuff.
I would joined the next one here because these games are epic, but there isn't really any open to join. :(

Roboman 09-06-2007, 10:07 PM ^ Yeah for sure!
Sk8Almost 09-07-2007, 07:46 PM nice set honey mustard
Seņor Waffles 09-07-2007, 08:15 PM this is amazing how u do this and its a message board
honeymustard 09-07-2007, 08:19 PM nice set honey mustard
thanks mate.
Supersonix6 09-07-2007, 08:49 PM Man, I've never landed a toe flip before. This might give me some trouble........I've tried them in the past with no luck. We shall see..........
honeymustard 09-07-2007, 09:40 PM than add a twist to it :)
jmaiurro 09-08-2007, 04:22 PM I will try this. Nice set and match.
Pathtek4 09-13-2007, 01:55 PM Ok, times up (and a day late, my fault)...
1 point for World, who are laying the SPANKING on Team America right now...We need a big match soon from everyone, so lets just hope Qtip doesn't set anything ridiculous (cause he's got skills like that!!)
Q-bro, you are on the clock...Set by Monday 2pm
charmander 09-14-2007, 07:05 PM im confused, what is a forward flip?
like ollie late something?
I've been practicing these the whole time and finally got one on tape.. 2 days ago?
Then Qtip shows up all fancy like with his mad dream ruining skill and puts me to shame..
Nice set though.
gonna force me to learn another equally difficult trick I'd think would cause Americans trouble.
im confused, what is a forward flip?
like ollie late something?
Think of it as a vertical front foot hard flip(Though Qtip's wasn't overly vertical). Bad description anyways.. to youtube!
This chap' got em' spot on perfect.

honeymustard 09-19-2007, 05:54 PM Vrait's set is due by Saturday night.
Current stats
R.O.W- SKA
America- SKA
I think 6 people might be a bit too many people that have to match, maybe 3 people?
Vrait's set is due by the end of September 24th.
Current stats
R.O.W- SKA
America- SKA
I think 6 people might be a bit too many people that have to match, maybe 3 people?
The rules have been changed a while ago, now it's the overall amount of matches per team that counts. The original system based on a required amount of matches and letters has been removed.
Pathtek4 09-19-2007, 08:20 PM Don't confuse me all, haha! I'm looking now at matches for Q's trick being up, no matches! Moving on...
Vrait, your set! Due by Saturday 8pm
honeymustard 09-22-2007, 07:26 PM Vrait probably won't set. So it's Jmaiurro's turn now?
jmaiurro 09-23-2007, 10:09 AM Its my set now? If it is, ill upload when i get home, im not on my pc.

jmaiurro 09-23-2007, 06:53 PM freestyle is allowed?
Hell Yeah!
Pathtek4 09-23-2007, 09:20 PM Ok, American Team match by Thursday!
Pathtek4 09-25-2007, 06:54 AM This is one hard trick, maybe not to some, but to ME, wtf!
jmaiurro 09-25-2007, 08:32 PM Haha, just keep doing the same thing and out of no where you should land it rail, and try and keep your balance :wink:
Pathtek4 09-30-2007, 09:01 PM Ok, back on schedule....Charmander, your set! No points for Team America

Good, because you don't have to.
Supersonix6 10-04-2007, 08:51 PM Just for your knowledge guys, don't skip my set. I pre-recorded a trick for this game before I became a KRIP.
Hows the set going Charmander? Times ticking!
charmander 10-05-2007, 07:07 PM can i get an extension, my cam is seriously messed up, i kinda forgot about this, sorry for not posting earlier.
Sk8Almost 10-05-2007, 07:51 PM i i have to drop out i really dont have time to skate
honeymustard 10-06-2007, 12:39 PM uh whos set is it?
Supersonix6 10-07-2007, 08:24 PM I´m Pretty sure it is Fliptastic´s set for team rest of the world. Correct me if i´m wrong Pathtek.
MiniMan 10-07-2007, 08:35 PM yea its fliptastic
Well Flip is banned, so I guess it makes it Supersonix's set ? ;)
jmaiurro 10-08-2007, 10:52 AM ^ That sound's good.
MiniMan 10-08-2007, 11:02 AM lol i wonder what his set shall be
Supersonix6 10-08-2007, 04:41 PM Sweet! I will post the trick today!
lol i wonder what his set shall be
I know what it is already, it starts with a 's'... Just like 'shinner' ;)
jmaiurro 10-08-2007, 08:13 PM Sigma Flip, Holy Crap.
Nice man.
Pathtek4 10-08-2007, 08:15 PM The last time I had to match this (what was it, like GOS8 or something), I severly pained my shin...but we need points, so i'll try my best at round 2 on it
jmaiurro 10-08-2007, 08:34 PM What is it anyways? Like variel flip late casper flip of somesort lol?
bguitarist34 10-08-2007, 08:41 PM What is it anyways? Like variel flip late casper flip of somesort lol?ya i was also wondering. it looked like some kind of casper flip
jmaiurro 10-08-2007, 08:48 PM I searched what it was,
A half variel flip late anti-casper.
Very Cool.
MiniMan 10-08-2007, 11:31 PM all i know is its like all over the place lol BAMM!!!!!!!!!!!
I searched what it was,
A half variel flip late anti-casper.
Very Cool.
Yeah, basically it's like a featherflip with a varial 1/2 flip instead of the 1/2 impossible - do a varial 1/2 flip, catch it into a mid-air anticasper, flip it back, land. For this trick I would advise to have your shoulders facing the direction you're heading to, treating the varial 1/2 flip like a twisted flip or a 1/2 360 flip rather than a full varial kickflip, also learning featherflips first would also made things much easier.
Here's a slow-mo'd sigma flip to help you figure out how it spins and flips :

rhys7 10-09-2007, 08:30 AM Woah thats one messed up trick lol lucky I dont have to try and match that
Pathtek4 10-09-2007, 03:57 PM ^Lucky you, and lucky me for a dreary weather day...no pain just yet :p
charmander 10-09-2007, 06:01 PM im scared to try this, if i make my next post out of the ER, then youll know what happened.
jmaiurro 10-09-2007, 08:00 PM Even though im on Team rest of the world, I want to learn this, so i shall practice it tomorow. :wink:
Thanks MRCK for the description and video :D
MiniMan 10-09-2007, 08:55 PM that looks really hard im glad i dont have to try matching it.
bguitarist34 10-15-2007, 08:13 PM well im pretty sure i have until thursday to set so ill try to get something up soon hopefully.

AntiHero777 10-21-2007, 07:33 PM Well...I couldn't match the first sw double, and I couldn't match this one...I really need to work on my sw flips.
And I swear, if the next set is some other variation of a sw double, I'm gonna cry a little.
bguitarist34 10-21-2007, 07:42 PM Well...I couldn't match the first sw double, and I couldn't match this one...I really need to work on my sw flips.
And I swear, if the next set is some other variation of a sw double, I'm gonna cry a little.haha! we know team rest of the world's weakness now. everybody learn sw dub flip variations and use it as your set!
jmaiurro 10-21-2007, 09:18 PM haha! we know team rest of the world's weakness now. everybody learn sw dub flip variations and use it as your set!

jmaiurro 10-23-2007, 04:58 PM Cool cool.
Pathtek4 10-23-2007, 08:56 PM Over the ''halfway'' mark with this game and sets for each person! I hope for a strong finish from team America!
bguitarist34 10-23-2007, 08:57 PM Over the ''halfway'' mark with this game and sets for each person! I hope for a strong finish from team America!

Varial_222 10-24-2007, 04:59 AM As convincing as Englands? http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=QNhiLTmScvw
:)
rhys7 10-25-2007, 08:05 AM F*ck I'm so sorry guys I was grounded from skating for 2 days I will set in the next 24 hours guaranteed
bguitarist34 10-28-2007, 08:33 PM hey team America, WAKE UP!!! is anybody even gonna say anything or match the trick? lol we need a lot more matches guys.
rhys7 10-29-2007, 12:51 AM Matching time nearly up? Lol cant believe theres only been one match from my lazy set
Pathtek4 10-29-2007, 06:39 AM ^Rained 2 days, then its been a busy BUSY weekend...seems the only free time I've had was at night, and I don't have a spotlight unfortunately!
rhys7 10-29-2007, 07:22 AM ^Bet you could land it first shot! Surely you could find like 30 seconds of during the day time lol
bguitarist34 10-29-2007, 07:28 AM ^Rained 2 days, then its been a busy BUSY weekend...seems the only free time I've had was at night, and I don't have a spotlight unfortunately!ya i remember you told me that it was raining so you weren't able to match yet. and it was raining for Dumbdog too. it seems we're the only active Americans in the game.
jmaiurro 10-29-2007, 09:36 PM Nice match dumbdog.
honeymustard 10-30-2007, 05:56 PM Sorry, I need to drop out. I'm apart of too many games.
skatermccrank 10-31-2007, 08:11 PM i have my match, idk if time is up...but i want everyone to know that my match is at home, but i have no time to upload it because my parents are not letting me on the computer any more tonight...gay...but...i have it
rhys7 11-01-2007, 02:58 AM Pretty sure matching time is up its been about 5 days I think
bguitarist34 11-01-2007, 07:23 AM ya matching time just ended.
lemons7 11-01-2007, 09:22 AM Dang, America is getting pwnt. I think a fakie cab wouldn't be too hard to match, I can do em.
Pathtek4 11-01-2007, 09:33 AM Weather played a part for sure for me...That darn World Team, controlling the weather system over here haha
Hey, i'm going away on vacation, but i might be on the site here and there, but won't be able to match (even though its America's turn to set, and World has 5 days, which is what I have for vacation time)
Pathtek4 11-06-2007, 09:27 PM TimTim, it was your set? Getting anything done? If not, were moving on to last set for World Team, which is the last chance for Team America to get something done, with a come from behind win ;)
MiniMan 11-12-2007, 09:49 PM Can i get an extension i didnt even no it was my set this game went by hella fast i can have my set up by wed pretty plz!
AntiHero777 11-12-2007, 10:01 PM Okay, exactly whos set is it right now?
MiniMan 11-13-2007, 08:07 AM supposed to be mine.
bguitarist34 11-13-2007, 08:16 AM I guess they are skipping to the last setter on world team(lilminiman)After his set, the game will be over i guess.
Pathtek4 11-13-2007, 02:26 PM ^Correct! L-man, you have till wednesday to get your set in, after that, game over, and we will crown the winner (and at this point, you can probably guess who that will be :p)
MiniMan 11-13-2007, 08:27 PM I have another question does the people who pretisapated in this game frmo the winning team get one of them trophy things.
MiniMan 11-14-2007, 08:57 PM Ok gots my set its processing i hope that i don't screw this game up for my team
bguitarist34 11-14-2007, 09:16 PM cool. ill get a match tomorrow when i get home from school. we need matches America!
MiniMan 11-14-2007, 09:21 PM Pretty plz i hope i dont screw my team over.
bguitarist34 11-15-2007, 04:57 PM my match is up and my first 360 underflip is in the vid too. haha it's sketchy
I'm not too sure but just encase my set is up soon I'm letting you all know.
I might not be able to set anything. I re-aggravated the pulled muscle in my back(one of the muscles that supports my spinal cord). Last time it took about 4 weeks to seem somewhat normal and I just pulled it again playing dodge ball. If my set in in the near future I'm probably not going to be able to do anything for it. I tried skating today and I had a very difficult time bending over. This is my insurance just encase I can't manage.
Team.. Rest of the world!
MiniMan 11-16-2007, 09:51 PM Umm SQ this game ends monday i had the final set (im on team rest of world) I set switch twisted flip. So this game is done in like 3 days
Umm SQ this game ends monday i had the final set (im on team rest of world) I set switch twisted flip. So this game is done in like 3 days
Mhmm, not everyone gets to set? Or did I manage to miss my set some time ago?
I do say, that has been the most unsuccessful game of skate I've ever been a part of.
Pathtek4 11-16-2007, 10:38 PM ^Yeah, it lost its motivation somewhere after we changed the format...But if it isn't for the ''weaker'' ones, we won't see what works and doesn't I guess...
Nice set, giving me plenty of unsuccessful attempts
bguitarist34 11-17-2007, 12:01 AM nice job one the match DD. it gave me a good laugh too haha.
^Yeah, it lost its motivation somewhere after we changed the format...
Uh... my bad.
Pathtek4 11-17-2007, 10:06 PM ^Nobodies fault man, just seemed to be the turning point thats all (plus there were plenty of other games going on at the time, which had an influence in players times)
Well, looks like Team World in officially the WINNER! Congrats!!
Skaterscafe World Cup Game of Skate
Skaterscafe Team America - 0
Skaterscafe World Team - 7
MiniMan 11-17-2007, 10:10 PM YAY! Does this mean we get them fancy awards yet mike? Well ill just post in the thread that lets people no you deserve one of them fancy awards
YAY! Does this mean we get them fancy awards yet mike? Well ill just post in the thread that lets people no you deserve one of them fancy awards
I'd argue against them.
I don't think I've done a thing and still won. How ridicules is that?
Guessing I'm not the only one. Giving a group of people awards for nothing would seem kinda pointless. I think so at least.
MiniMan 11-17-2007, 10:32 PM No No No see the people from the winning team that pratisapated and actually did something in this game (set/match) will get an award. If your from the winning team but did not match of set then you get nothing.
I realized though, missing your set just helps your team out.
MiniMan 11-17-2007, 10:36 PM I realized though, missing your set just helps your team out.
Yea im not sure how many people actually did set from team rest of world i think maybe 3 or 4 didnt.
rhys7 11-18-2007, 12:37 AM Yer I realised that a while ago but it's just dog as to deliberately miss your set
No No No see the people from the winning team that pratisapated and actually did something in this game (set/match) will get an award. If your from the winning team but did not match of set then you get nothing.
So, because I didn't get the opportunity to set due to the lack of structure in the game I get nothing? Though because you were lucky enough to get to set, you get an award? I didn't get to play he game I signed up for and get nothing for it, where as you get to play and get something for it.
I may be insane for saying this, but doesn't that seem a bit selfish? You get everything and I get nothing?
MiniMan 11-18-2007, 01:03 PM huh? im not the only one that gets an award. Everyone from the winning team (rest of world) That played a part in this game (set/matched) ( MRCK, Qtip, Supersonix6, AntiHero777, Varial_222, Jmaiurro, Rhys7, lilminiman) <<< Those are the people then get the awards if im correct.
AntiHero777 11-18-2007, 01:06 PM ^Really though. Look at my record on this game. I matched one trick, and my set was skipped...does it really sound like I deserve an award? If you ask me, no.
MiniMan 11-18-2007, 01:10 PM At least you matched though. You put up a point for team rest of world you deserve one. Lets say it was tied at 7-7 and your match ended up winning the game does that mean you didn't help us win.
At least you matched though. You put up a point for team rest of world you deserve one. Lets say it was tied at 7-7 and your match ended up winning the game does that mean you didn't help us win.
So my countless hours count trying to get these horribly difficult tricks count for nothing to you? Just because he happens to be a better skateboarder than me says nothing about the amount of effort put in to trying these tricks.
These games of skate are supposed to be fun, friendly games where the main goal is to learn. I tried, I skated and I learned. But because I have a more difficult time completing these tricks I am undeserving of an award where as you most definitely deserve one, right?
Your logic is selfish. I don't care who disagrees.
MiniMan 11-18-2007, 06:04 PM OH....I know look at it your way. I never knew you tried to match or set. My bad if i offended you dude. But as for awards i don't even know now. Its all up to mike a believe. But really sorry if i offeneded you man. Sorry.
I for one don't deserve an award. Hell I forgot about the game halfway-ish. Anyways, this should be moved to the completed games section.
jmaiurro 11-25-2007, 11:23 AM So let Mike decide if anyone even get's an award.
Pathtek4 11-26-2007, 04:56 AM I'll work it out....
Pathtek4 11-27-2007, 05:02 AM The entire WORLD TEAM got awards (except Flip, cause since he's currently dismissed)
Don't ask me questions, just assume that no matter what, it was a ''Team'' game, so thats why I did it that way. Congrats again World Team! Put the whooping on us America Team haha
If for some reason you didn't recieve one, please let me know, thanks (the entire list is updated on the first post of this thread)
So Mike, is GOS11 going to start in winter break? I think that would be a good time for it, most people don't have much to do besides skate their garages.
Shorty's_Kid 12-02-2007, 03:14 PM Yeah when is GOS going to start?
jmaiurro 12-02-2007, 09:33 PM Yeah when is GOS going to start?
its done...
