checklist of things you got to do. Here's the any
yeah that. So, after that, run, Felipe's now sitting in first,
but yeah, with a 91
never know what could happen right here
because as you said,
these two are going to make a run for First Right Here, Right?
Wow, that is how you do legit invert, right there. Like yeah,
fully extended hand on the coping.
Oh, solid front side, grind to back to the corner. Or
what
side flip.
Like lay back front side of rock and roll
that. These guys got a lot of tricks and it also skated
Street and super tech on street and bringing the tech into
the bowl. That's right.
A good part of the course, as well as definitely cover ground
here. Yeah. The judges want to see that like full usage.
Every obstacle, torn apart. Yeah, that's right. For out.
Put your hands together. Now, this something you see out
there, don't be afraid. To clap and give some Applause for all
these skaters out here, just killing it.
I was a run that was serious run. I don't want to be a judge
right now. Now that's so hard for the judges because
you know as we move forward towards the games, you know,
like I said we should probably separate the upper limit and
the lower limb guy, so it makes a little easier on the judges
right now, we've got this mixed bag and so they're looking at
them
and trying to do their best to just judge the skateboarding.
And I know it can be difficult to sometimes for them to see
through the disability. Ouch so amazing. Yeah. Aspiring
for example, when you see Justin, but I mean,
I don't even know. You went to sugar cane on that one. That's
look at. That is really hard.
You gotta over, rotate it and the knows what it's all. The
tricks are hard. All the chicks are does not put me some in
town, nothing.
Nothing's nothing's grouchy.
It's like everything's perfect. So yeah,
yeah, judges got the work cut out for them. They do
their second place rut. So that's
Enough
86 664, Vinnie.
Pop them into second place. That's
that's clearly. We cannot count Brazil out ever for talking
about the podium. Yeah, check out the standings right now,
Philippe and first Vinny and second, Brandon, white and
third. So those
are at the top slots,
two feet. I may or may not have called that.
I think you call that actually a top three
and you've probably heard the name, Mike Schultz but he's one
of the top. Top paralympic snowboarder has invented a foot
in his garage, a prosthetic foot that helps him snowboard.
The whole point of it was
you want us to ride his motorcycle. He wants to
horseback ride. You want to snowboard, but
there's different types of prosthetic feet and Joey had
a bouncy one. I think that made a little difficult for him.
Here's
Brandon White.
That is such a good Indie nose clean.
there's a tad rack getting around
nice backside, 50
branded currently in third
top that this run
be he's just a Honda W. Yeah yeah.
Definitely having a great time out there.
Let's hear it for Brandon white
for the crowd.
A place right here.
Ice floating that Ali
came in too hot too much speed.
I got out of it nicely. Here's that in Dino's. Pick proper.
Alright, bumped up a little bit on the score.
Yes,
that's a good
so fast. Yeah,
I like the fancy footwork on the blunt fakie.
He looks happier. He is happy site.
All right. Looks like Felipe's got something big for us.
That's right. And start they'll tell me you're dropping it on
that. Don't, what are you doing up there? You scare me. Get
down.
That's already like a contest winner right there? My my my point
there's no way you can pay me enough to drop in on that thing
ever.
Come on Des Moines. Let's
let's hype up Philippe and get him to do this
darling.
Gnarly isn't even a strong enough word for this
the new word. Yeah,
really does not cooperate and really doesn't know.
My God,
I can't believe this. I can't get on the computer graphic
video part is like insane.
All right, looks like we're
set up here. It's parked.
Come on crowd, Make some noise, Make some noise.
Yeah,
it's like I got this so easy.
It's like barely blinked to God. Like, okay.
Okay. This Hyo Felipe's golf or he's like, you know what?
I want to win. Both, especially through the 540 in early, so
I kept getting it into run.
Still 16 s Philly. May let's go.
He's already had a full run.
Are you kidding me, right? Hopping is insane.
That's right, Make some noise out there. Felipe Nunez
hilling. It
definitely a crowd favorite. I'm stoked. Yes grinning over
here. That was.
I can't believe it. I am just thinking about it. I'm like
that thing is so big. So big. Yeah, you can tell a TV. No
real
big. That is
like I said, when a skaters do tricks, they make everything
look really easy and it's not easy. So, not
afraid of heights. So
that's already Too Tall.
I read that he broke his femur one time, and a championship
contest back at home and state of the contest. Anyway, Antoine
but yeah, like, you bats have gnarly?
He flipped it. So sad
realized it. He did it.
He just went in mind blowing, but it's like know I can flip
into. So there you go. That's like huge kickflip, right? They
like crazy. Like,
Like
so sick. That's why we need slow motion because sometimes
the flips happened so fast. I don't even see it in regular
motion and then just College straight down that waterfall.
Yeah. It's like, okay, I got actually just rolls away. Yeah,
frontside flip over the head and backside, flip over the hip
and then 2540 also. It's like, no, I'm getting all my tricks
in.
Yeah,
he's just in a contest. Itself at this point. Yeah, pretty
much
something super cool that I read about have to and The
Thrasher interviews that he used a wheelchair until around
age 11, and then he
found, you know, skateboarding and decided that was going to
be his Moto Transportation. That's right. I was going to
just say that. Yeah, that so that's his motor trans ready to
see him out and go to get food or out of the
restaurant at night and he's on his skateboard all the time.
Wow, look at that score.
Wow. Saying wow, tough one to beat but he also did some tough
trick. So
Wow, I'm still like in shock, I'm like my brain can't wrap
it. Wrap around the idea of going up.
We're taking a look here at our final results list
Philippe taking that first spot vinicius and second, Brandon,
white, and third.
As you called that, I did three pack
heart. It's
you already knew. I knew what was coming? Huh. Good call
Chance. Yeah.
But
it was awesome skating all around from everybody.
Everybody killed it from first through. Eighth are all true
Inspirations just out here doing it,
awesome skateboarders,
true skateboarders. They really put a lot of time and effort
into
trying to get better at their craft and they love it. Yeah
I want to see this in the Olympics please.
Yeah, I gotta get it going. Got to get it in the Paralympics.
It'll be so cool. We've kind of we've got a design and now we
just gotta I'll put our heads together and execute. I think
we'll get there.
And yeah, and I think about just all the young people at
home watching to, and like, maybe never seeing anything
like this before and being inspired to try.
Do you have any advice for someone who's,
you know, maybe a little scared or thinking about it,
I think, adapt and overcome. I think,
Felipe's advice at the end, there was great, no excuses, just
hard work and dedication and that's what that's what gets it
done. And that's what gets it done. Whether you're
able-bodied, quote, unquote, or whether you're living with
a disability, you just keep at it and
and it eventually, it'll happen, right?
Yeah. And it's so much fun. Like, just the smiles on
everyone's face like your first or last doesn't matter. Like
you're just having fun. That's all that matters. At the end of
the day.
One last round of applause, for all of our adaptive athletes at
the men's Park final presented by Toyota in third place. We've
got Brandon white.
Congrats Brandon.
Yeah, Brandon. Yeah.
Right. And
holding it down for real skateboards.
We've got Darcy from Toyota Sports Marketing handed out
the hardware Brandon is okay.
He's always high.
And in second place.
None other than Vinnie. Sardi holding it down for Brazil.
Let's give it up for Vinny. Yes. Vide way to go.
Somebody puts on Prosthetics at night and Tools around and
Prosthetics.
All right? And of course, in the first place, our champion
Philippe Nunez from Brazil
