thanks chris.

By the way i had this combo nice and clean (without the pause) on tape earlier. But my camera is fucked up and i couldnt watch or edit it. so i taped again and game to kevin regamey and he edited it. So i have this combo down without the pause thingy, but i couldnt see it or edit it

so vote for me!
haha

Very good combos from all of you! It was indeed a tough vote. I was
going to vote for Rob, because of the perfect control, especially the
pixie out of the assassin looked like cake. I voted for tom however,
for his use of 3 different sets and tough linking.

Very tough vote indeed.

Although Tom did have the hardest combo, I found his control to be an issue, so he lost my vote for that.

Rob's combo was also really good, but I thought the duck on the assasin could have been better.

I voted for Rory ... I really liked gyro mirage > DLO .. It look really cool, and its not something you'd expect someone to throw down in a sick 3, so it wins the creativity factor as well in my books.

All in all it was a close race between those 3 guys, and they all could have got my vote.

Oh yes folks, and don't forget what is on the line here for the winner ....

A signed photograph of RYAN SEATH ....
and a bag sewn by TOM MOSHER .. (Which, could be a pretty unexciting prize if the results continue how they are currently).

I chose Rory. It was the most creative and well-executed combo, in my opinion. I was expecting to vote for Tom, because that is a NICE combo. I'm a huge Tom Mosher fan and love his style, but I felt this 3-move-combo was a little awkward-looking. Rory's gyro mirage was what did it for me -- spinning is too rare in sick 3s. Let's see more!

I also wanted to mention that Henry's combo was a little weird. I'm not sure if a pause between moves should be legitimate? It's kind of like Cod(?)'s 1000 toe stalls where he, like, paused every hundred or so and just stood around to rest. Nothing personal, I loved the bothsidedness of the pixie moves!

Seath's combo from last comp was AWESOME -- the pilon thing gave you points! You just need a more creative combination of moves -- dimwalk > ripwalk > blur is standard in almost everyone's game. The same goes for Cole and Joe's combos. This is just my opinion, but I think you would get more votes if the combos were more creative and unusual. Rob's was pretty neat -- I liked the pdx whirl!

Good stuff everyone!

again erik, i had it without the pause on tape. It wouldnt import onto my computer. so i was in a rush to get it on tape..

this was 10 minutes from the deadline. i should have done it earlier i know but i didnt have time. Next combo for me will be harder, more creative, and awesome!!!!!

woot i didnt think id even get one vote cause that friggin pause. when i was doing it i didnt notice it

I ended up voting for Rob. Assassin is the toughest trick up there, and it's definitely one that appeals to me.

Furthermore, that Pdx Whirl was TIGHT yo!

is it? the combo that won worlds 2003 sick 3 event

montage> whirl wind> montage rake

all spins

and 2004 worlds:

whirlygig> whirlwind> spinning pdx blender

2/3 ain't bad

looks like spins are a large part of sick 3's to me.

Jeremy · Post by **Jeremy** » 24 Nov 2004 03:04

and look at the modified div 1 comp

I had 1 spin
Anssi had 1 spin
Sergy had 5 spins
Byrin had 4 spins
Ryan T had 4 spins
Chris had 0 spins

That's 15 spins in 18 moves

Shredster · Post by **Shredster** » 24 Nov 2004 09:54

How come i'm the only one without a spin?

Maraxus · Post by **Maraxus** » 24 Nov 2004 13:48

I voted for Rory. Mosher's was a very close second but after seeing both Rory's was sicker in my book with the combinations.

ted · Post by **ted** » 24 Nov 2004 13:51

I voted for Rory because his combo would be harder for me to hit than any others.
