Koston, Ishod and Grant batter barriers and get new tattoo ideas on the big SOTY Miami trip.

Did you know our Double Rock skatepark has an illegitimate child across the bay in the mean streets of Richmond? 

An extra make or two here, a twist of fate over there—and Real would have won this thing. They really went for it, they're good sports, and they have a ripping squad.

Here's the Highest, Longest, Most awards. Every KOTR there's weird tricks and funny moments, but this edit shows that some truly incredible skating goes down. Huge thanks to Enjoi, Chocolate, Real and Birdhouse. What a rad year...

Here's Real in the final stretch. They have to push Arrighi into a pool, they meet up with Lil' Wayne, Brock battles a kickflip late shove-it, and TJ Rogers again tackles some wild tech moves.

The Real team battles harsh bank-to-wall challenges, Mystery Guest TJ Rogers is a tech ledge-wizard, they find a mom who can kickflip, and Jake Ruiz continues to be the big surprise of KOTR with his shocking handrail assaults. 

Portland, Boise, Sacto, and Los Angeles. The Real KOTR Team hit it real hard from start to finish and it was a hell of a ride!

Real makes a potato gun, Justin Brock grinds up, across and down a rail, a longboard gets focused, and the team gets 21 females into their van.

Real is in this to win and the guys find a stripper who skates, Brock gets inked, Brockel does a huge bar snap, and Jake Ruiz grinds one of the gnarliest 50-50s in KOTR history.
