People came in hot right off the bat with ollies and kickflips and this frontside flip here. Then it was kind of a lull for a while where it almost looked like not much was going to go down because no one was making anything.

Note for the next event: director's chairs don't work for the big dudes.

I heard Ishod saying he's not a flat gap type of guy. He bowed out of this one.

Not sure if this dude ever made this hardflip. He later switched to trying a frontside 360 the entire time. He came close a few times, but it never happened.

Man, I should have taken notes. There was so much going on I can't remember names or even if this switch flip was made. I saw him come real close several times, though.

I heard plenty of people in the crowd afterwards talking about how good it was. Hopefully you were there.
CJ Tambornino ended up winning it with a switch varial heelflip. I missed the sequence, but you can check it on Joe Pelham's footage coming up. Get the full results here. Let's do that again soon, Red Bull.
