Vans Open video must watch

A super good early morning watch, which is now up to view as well, for all those who didn't want to get up early to watch.

Chris Russell killed it, as did a few others, including Jack Fardell and the crazy Cardiel cash grab at the end.

Contest Analyzer has it all - 2.5 hours from yesterday and 4 hours from today.

ahh cheers guys

I don't want to play the "Look what I put up" game, but the highlight reel is only such a small part of the amazingly rad skateboarding that went down there.

With the Contest Analyzer thing, you can select who you want to see vid from and watch their first run and jam, usually most of which is pretty good anyway, as a few of the same dudes are skating in their heats together.

A couple of super good stand outs who are worth the watch are the Robin Bolian kid from France and Patrick Ryan, am on Black Label, along with the usual rad dudes as mentioned above. A few others include Willy Lara, Marlon Silva and Josh Rodriguez for interesting tricks and rad skating.

Of course people could mention the usual pro roster of current bowl type dudes, of which the list would be pretty long, but one in particular to watch the heats of is Raven Tershy - how anyone can get that far on any trick he does is amazing on the main wall, along with everything else he does, but then kinda drops off closer to the end of the finals, etc to place fairly low in the top 12.
