DW says:
I enjoyed John Clayton's part more, the tricks weren't as technical, but he skated fast and landed shit solid. The Wu definitely didn't hurt either. Winner: John Clayton.

bradley cushing says:

F.R.E.A.M. says:
FLORIDA IN THE HOUSE!!! THIS KID RIPS. I REMEMBER SEEING THIS KID IN MIAMI FOR YEARS. GO LURK HIS YOUTUBE FOOTAGE, HE WAS BITTIN' REYNOLDS WHEN HE WAS LIKE 17 FRONT BLUNTIN' THE JEW RAILS. THE DUDE GOT SKILLS. I'M BACKIN' HIM.

Spencer Brown dudes amazing the shit he dose is out of order i seen him skate at the ridge alot just seein him skate in real life you cant help but watch him Spencer for sure

jesse turvey says:
the boxing girl is really stankin hot,lol
but i would have to give it to SPENCER BROWN by K.O,although john clayton had some pretty killer tricks aswell,
but u know what, i would be so damn happy if i seen some old-school (or freestyle,but just not as much) influenced skater for the next one,or someone really unique,im tired of seein handrails and kickflips (and ryan sheckler,lol)
no but all jokes aside spencer brown killed it,(but it wouldnt hurt if he tried some bonelesses or no-complys or fast/street plants or some tottally off the wall unique sh@#,but idk thats just me,)

Spencer for Win

David Stuck says:
Spencer Brown
winner

Last 4 tricks were ridiculous, whole part was insane.

tony says:
spencer Brown . every trick is a bagner .

that guy says:
young PJ ladd aka spencer Brown .

sean says:
spencer brown without a doubt!

Ryan says:
John was boring, Spencer gets the win.

Carl says:
Spencer...hands down...

Dan Zank says:
Both are good. Spencer Brown wins without any doubt. The tricks speak for themselves. Also as someone mentioned plan B hooks this kid up(if that doesnt say something i guess nothing will). I dont care what other peoples opinions are or what the poll says. Its hard to stand out today in skateboarding but this kid obviously does by doing tricks no one else does !!!!!! And to the idiot who dissed rodney mullen, well u dissed rodney mullen, who cares what u think !!!!

justin says:
johns part boring spencer all the way

The Critic says:
To say John's part was boring, your dumb. John, has varitey of things. All Spencer does is skate manuel pads and home made flatledges, and jumps down a few things. A few of the tricks are questionable too, even the way he lands tricks is questionable, land bolts son, not with your heal touching.. Spencer skates slow too. But in the end it is comparing apples to oranges. Clayton is solid like an apple and Brown is soft like an orange.

The Critic says:
Oh yeah and Specner is kickin some hella fake steez.

The Shoppe Revival says:
Spencer Brown no doubt

The Michael says:
Just watch the first clip in each of their parts. Mr. Brown skates a homemade spot. Mr. Clayton skates a street spot. Mr. Brown skates 12 homemade spots in his part, Mr. Clayton skates 0 homemade spots. I agree that Mr. Brown has Clayton beat out on the tech side of skateboarding, but you cannot beat out pure raw street skating, with power. Both of these guys got skills, but in my books Clayton got the win. Kid doesn't dress like a hip-hop kook either, unless your name is Biebel leave your XXXL shirts at home.

fuck that says:
people are pissed . spencer is better , and not every trick was at a homade spot . It just looks like theirs alot better stuff to skate in florida . doesnt change the fact that spencers part was way better . and that kid makes some of the sickest beats , thats one of his beats in the part , so yea i guess he is hiphop .

spencer brown = winner

Tron says:
Funniest quote of them all - "Clayton is solid like an apple and Brown is soft like an orange."

Justin Heister says:
Hmmm.. looks like more people are pulling for Spencer on the comments, but more people voted for John on the Reader Pole... what's up with that?

justin says:
Mr. heister its because more people know that john is better and they dont need to argue about it,

Aaron The Outsider says:
They're really different skaters. John's skating does remind me of lukewarm,predictable, late 90's skating. Spencer Brown has a new refreshing part with a new batch of tricks!! SPENCER BROWN IS THE WINNER!!

ya'heird? says:
ball-murr, hon. maryland is gnarbiscuits and so over looked.

KMC says:
Spencer Brown your bag of tricks is impressive to say the least and your style is easy and effortless. But Clayton has tricks (though not as tech), plus style and something else that in my opinion was the deciding factor: POWER. The only way a video part can have power is if you skate something bigger than a foot and half tall. My vote goes to John Clayton. Damn, this was hard! Will they always be such different type skaters?

manko says:
jonny told me to vote
and ya this guy is good

colin says:
john clayton for 2012. other dude's got tricks but johnny stomps that shit.

will says:
John Clayton for sure. Spencer reeks of fake steez

east coast says:
mr. brown looks like he's had fully flared on repeat for the past five months. low manual pads and wavy-arm bullshit. skates slow and looks awkward on a skateboard. who cares if you can nollie quadruple flip to wheely, if you look like an ape doing it. all you people who think brown wins, you have no idea what skateboarding is all about. john clayton for the win. skate and destroy.

realtalk says:
spencer Brown wins .. sorry john

Elvin Manges says:
I think spencer had more tech tricks but im goin wit clayton

casey says:
john calyton for sure

kj says:
clayton fo sho

Dank Video says:
Spencer has the tricks and the style.

jake says:
like aaron the outsider said, john's skating is predictable. he's got some good tricks, but it's nothing people haven't already seen done at similar spots around the world. spencer, on the other hand, is on a whole other level doing stuff most pros aren't capable of. john's skating is definitely worth watching, but in regards to the progression of skateboarding, who do you think is doing new stuff and continually pushing skateboarding to the limit? without a doubt, spencer brown.

Karon Mullins says:
fc64zkpwlihuy5ly

Steve says:
both bored the shit out of me. Fake steez galore, homemade spots, and big tee-shirts. WACK

DeNiro says:
to remind everyone everything john done spencer has done it with either a flip in or a flip out this dude is way too predictable ask ur self can john do what spencer do no can spencer do what john does yes easy throw away for spencer OUTSIDERS all day

the critic says:
Spencer sucks dick for his hobby.

wow says:
its just skateboarding , you take it way to far . you post gay ass comments on internet websites . your hobbies include being a hater , and sitting on your ass . have a nice life !

Sally Jessie Raphiel says:
Take a push Spencer you bitch, if you went any slower the snails could nollie backside 180 flip fakie five o fakie flip to switch five o to shove it to revert faster then you! Yo!

histshirtwasafuckingkiteheissogay says:
They didnt have to put spencers part in slow motion because it already is. also i know he flipped in an flipped out but who fucking cares if the shit aint clean, dudes wack. I agree with holmes take a fucking push!

LeavSpencerAlone says:
I like that gap he did in his part! Dont hate that rail he did was sick to!

B4lt1m0re says:
SPENCER ALL THE WAY
How the hell did johnny clayton win in a last minute decision?

haveboard says:
I know this is way late, but I'd go with John Clayton, since Spencer was rocking way too many Ghetto Gowns.
