All I’m sayin is I was right about 1st and 2nd at Nats and my underdog of the contest placed 4th 🤷‍♂️:joy: _also said Nate was overrated and he didn’t make final_ he did good at worlds tho ---

1A finals just ended. That was crazy. With everyone doing so good definetely Evals will define this contest. I’m thinking Evan vs Nate vs Gentry, and Shion too just because he powered his tech score like crazy. Seeing Iori on stage was fun. Also props to Hiroki for one of the cleanest 3 minutes I’ve ever seen. ---

I just left the venue, and the crowd was wayyyyyyy more hype for Nate than Gentry. In my opinion it’s between Nate and Evan right now, that was a crazy experience. ---

It was honestly one of the best experiences of my life. Being there was so much different than watching it online, there’s something about seeing the tricks in person that makes them even more awe inspiring. I’d 100% recommend going if you ever have the opportunity brother. ---

WOW! I think Hajime is my new favorite player. This kid is amazing! Glad his performance wasn’t totally clean, was starting to think he can’t be human lol. The crowd went absolutely nuts after both his 3a _and_ 4a routine…biggest standing O of the contest.
