Even if the purists lament about skateboarding for fun, and nothing but fun, everyone knows that a little head to head competition can help throw some spice into the mix.
411VM coined this concept quite neatly when they ran a Versus battle throughout 2006, pitching two skaters in an elimination match up of best trick burnout and leaving the public to vote for their favourite. Last year’s winner was Chris Haslam who beat his final opponent Greg Lutzka with a ridiculous double flip foot plant up and over the Barcelona bump to bar.
Pick your skaters here to make the top 16 cut and get the ball rolling for another 411Vs battle.
