SOTY so far picks (6 months into 2022)

Hey guys I’m thinking about recording a soty so far video for YouTube tomorrow. Wanted to hear your considerations for the top 10 before consulting the plebs.

Feel free to give a list or just one person you like.

My sleeper high rank is Hugo Boserup.

So far though, I think T funk has had the best footage I can think of.

What do you guys think

Comments

Kader?!?!

Henry Oxford

Tfunk or Louie

Alex Clayton

Super stoked you are rooting for tfunk

Frontside shitslide

Tfunk is my favorite skater. Love his style. Looks like he is surfing when he skates

Frontside shitslide

Thanks king

Joey Rodriguez

Yes been editing this soty video it’s all over the place but it will be up tonight

1

Sir can we plz have new video

Joey Rodriguez

i just watched bigger bang and pudwill needs to at least be in the conversation of SOTY, the lip treflip out was insane

friedtothemarrow

Louie Lopez will most likely get it this year as he was runner up the last 4-5 years. That is unless someone like Milton kick flips off a building again lol

Ty

Alex Willms pro part was old fashioned hammer skating in the best way. Highly entertaining.

James Garrett

Louie or t funk

Nolan Kramer

He did a hardflip late flip, he should have gotten disqualified for that dogshit

John Philips

CYRUS

Budschweizer_55

braden

gucci mongo

Tfunk, kader, sleeper is Nick matthews

Murph

oh ya also rowans baker part made me feel

centar_rick

centar_rick

i’m late but gifted skater once his new video drops

luke p

Thiago Lemos

Callum O’Neill

millic, bosserup

fin

Kader before the two week shit storm of parts prior to soty announcement

Seth Schurman

Chris Millic, Rowan Zorilla, Kader Sylla, T-Funk, and Hugo.

Harald Reynolds

Carlos ribeiro only knows switch kickflip back tails and eat hot chip

Skatepark Reality

dakka

dsktvk

kader tfunk louie

Bryan Peterdale

jake anderson for sure, rowan, myles willard, chris milic and maybe heitor... max palmer if another part drops

Fabio-E. Mesarosch

Ricky Glaser for YOTY

Dylan Roeder

Jake Anderson, Corey Glick, Myles Willard and Nick Garcia could be solid contenders, Gustav Tonneson should win every year and he had footage drop this year

Dylan Roeder

Bubba Jackson

Cole Park

Hoban puts out a banger part and I can see him in the runnings for sure

jiles ryan

Simon isaakson should be a sleeper pick based on his sour part alone. Def not #1 but I think about 5-6 tricks in that part regularly

Hugh Jass

TFunk is the consensus number 1 but I think Braden Hoban has a shot at beating him. Gabriel Summers for legacy pick because he just dropped a banger and has been putting out amazing footage for ages.

Lukas

Hoban, Kader, Spanky. And Aurelien Giraud for getting robbed by the judges in Rome last weekend

Joey Rodriguez

Ibu Sanyang

J O

BAM for escaping rehab twice

Ian

Sean Pablo

Posh Bastard

Penny never won, but Geoff Rowley did in 2000

Caro

Oh good, it’s not just me. If Spanky drops another part as good as Horses, he’s my pick. Doubt he’d get it, but he’d still be my pick.

Caro

Casper winning would be so sick. has a British person ever won? My skate history is pretty bad but my guess is Tom penny would be the only bloke to get soty

Alexander Cantu

would be huge for limosine if Hugo dropped another banger part and thrasher included him on the list

Alexander Cantu

Yeah, t-funk's the only guy that really comes to mind... Hugo would be sick too for sure, he's been busy this year. T-funk's part is so insane though. I've never seen anyone skate like that

angcient_rock

Chris Millic for his pure enjoyment of skating

Louie Barletta

I would give t funk soty for the china banks cover alone. would be sick to give it to someone who doesnt have an official shoe sponsor too. BTW how the fuck is he not fully on vans or converse?

JP

Feel like there will be more Tfunk parts later this year. Him being in SF near thrasher as well as being on a legacy brand like Baker I wouldn’t be surprised if they’re planning a heavy soty push.

Jake

Based Palmer or Wade D. (In a perfect world) Probably T-Funk, realistically Sidenote: you should take a business trip up to Vancouver a make some vids with uncle Ben

Oscar Eliasson

Fred Gall for bringing Ben Raybourn back

Barley

Ryan Thompson

Will LaCosta

Tfunk kader tiago gabriel summers louie lopez

Michael Shagalov

T Funk, Kader, Gustav, Casper. Also shouts out Noah Singleton

J O

Carlos Ribeiro is not one of my favourite skaters but my god is he good enough to soty. I agree with you tho I’d love to see Hugo turn soty but we both know that ain’t guna happen this year

Shaun Currie

Fred Gall

Garrick Slings

Tiago Lemos: have SOTY skills (but bad timing so far) could be a contender this year Carlos Ribeiro: SOTY level bangers in the Primitive Define video

beatrice_fs_overcrook

Max P, Hugo B, T Funk, Nick Matthews, Ville Wester, Casper Brooker.

Lucas Fanzio

Don’t necessarily think he’s appropriate for SOTY but I’ve loved almost everything spanky has done this year

Quayd Garcia

Heitor but he touched on a manual for 3 frames so he's disqualified.

aallen

I think Louie might drop some hammers on us pretty soon that will put him in the rankings

Jacob M Hibbeln

My heart says mango but my dick says t funk

Aiden S

I know it’s probably not SOTY worthy but Herman Stennes part was sick as fuck. Definitely thino Gab Summers is up there and I agree T funk is in the lead, I think another part of his would almost secure it for me.

Aidan Holtz

Jamie Griffin?? He won BTAB.. pretty sure that constitutes winning SOTY

Aidan Holtz

Barletta

Diklap

Should do that, thought this was last year already

Diklap

Alexis Ramirez is fucking insane he’s dropped some fucked up parts this year and his instagram clips are always elite. Think he deserve to be a contender at least

QogDotZip

Jesse alba for sitter of the year

Jawn Shanahan

I wanna say casper cus he's bri'ish but it's t funk so far. And he's got trick of the year

ethan

Really early barely guys with multiple parts out. Probably enough of the more creative skaters on your list already so I'll throw some other ones out. I know people will hate but I just saw the T-Puds part. Exactly what you would expect but I love the man and his flailing arms what can I say. Big bang is one of my favorites since it released when I just started. Also loved Wade's part but no way he gets it. Could see Hoban get it if he puts another part like his Emerica one out. S.O. to Disorder for having the worst vid of the year.

Diklap

1 minute of skating 7 minutes of bongs

1

KB when he drops 8 minute part in December :)

James Lord

Feel like George P should be in this talk with his fine dining part

Jonathan iannuzzi

Wade D

kl161

Nick Garcia. Does some really creative tricks at some fucked up spots. Since his part came out early 2022, recency bias is not going to play in his favor so I'm really hoping he might have another part later down the road to remind our monkey brains.

Kent Ishijima

Not necessarily SOTY worthy but Shor West crushed it in his thrasher part and I think it’s worth mentioning

Luke Ansell

Harry Lintell & Gab Summers for me so far

TuggerUK

Gabriel Summers seems to be doing pretty well so far would love to know your thoughts

Patrick Salone

Thrasher’s likely choice: T-Funk (fits the heavy drinking, fast skating, never showering or doing laundry Thrasher hellride vibes, his footy was nuts though) My choice: Chris Milic or Casper Brooker The Nine Club’s Choice: Gator

C

Kader Sylla

Zac Signorino

boss move

oatmeal steve

I feel like you’re gonna drop this video and then Louie is gonna release footage and we’re all gonna know who’s winning

Brooks

Gary vee or tfunk

Bernie Macintosh

Dropping it in the video as #1 announcing my self as the rightful SOTY

1

is your part dropping before tomorrow?

oatmeal steve

Aidan and Donovan had great parts too but need more footy

Taylor Richardson

Right now T Funk easy

the Boy with the Black Dog

Actually yeah Casper Brooker too though

microwaverr

T Funk and Millic are the only parts that I regularly think of throughout the day

microwaverr

He’s def on my list idk about #1 but he’s up high
