Hosted by Bill Weiss
Winners To Be Announced On June 12, 2009 In Hollywood, CA


TransWorld SKATEboarding
, the world’s number one skateboard magazine, announced the nominees for the 11th Annual TransWorld SKATEboarding Awards today.  The winners will be named during a live event on June 12, 2009 at Avalon Hollywood.

The TransWorld SKATEboarding Awards honor skateboarding’s top riders, presenting eight awards to professional skateboarders in the categories of Best Rookie, Best Street Skater, Best Transition Skater, Best Team, Best Video, Best Video Part, TWS Readers’ Choice, and the TWS Legend Award. The award winners are determined by polling more than 150 professional skateboarders worldwide with thousands of TransWorld SKATEboarding’s readers voting for the winner of the TWS Readers’ Choice Award. This year’s TWS Legend Award will be presented to one of skateboarding’s finest vert skaters, Christian Hosoi. Previous winners of this prestigious award have included Tony Hawk, Lance Mountain, and Mark Gonzales.

In addition to the awards, TransWorld SKATEboarding is pleased to host the world premiere of its 21st video, Right Foot Forward, the newest film by Jon Holland and Chris Ray, featuring Corey Duffel, Joey Brezinski, Kellen James, Matt Beach, and Bobby Worrest.

    wow david gravette is really on the list for best video part? 50-50's, 5-0's and lipslides sick. put trapasso or malto on that list instead of gravette. transworld is blowing it.

  • buzzzzz Says:

    first
    there were definitely better teams

  • dude Says:

    dude, lizard, deathwish and creature got ripped off!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • willie Says:

    OH MY GOD. readers choice BETTER go to heath.

  • Taylor Says:

    best team is Real or Plan B and best video part is Malto for sure. I can't even think of a better choice.

  • Travis Says:

    giving a nod to jake johnson in mindfield was a good move. most memorable part in that vid in my book. kf back lip a kinked ledge? switch wallride? animal collective? too prew

  • antihater Says:

    sk8mafia am video should be on that list for best video…

  • Blairalley Says:

    the PROS voted if you read the press release..

  • Virgil Says:

    Heath Kirchart got snubbed. His Mind Field part was the best years! Hopefully, he'll grab his 2 other nods. But I don't think Heath will be there. He's an oddball.

  • Billy Says:

    WOW! Torey's part in DUDES, DUDES, DUDES was ridiculous… What about T Pudd for Rookie of the year?

  • POOPMATT Says:

    I could watch Leos bitchin part from the RVCA promo for ever and ever! LEO IS THE SHIT
    EVERYBODY LOVES LEOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • POOPMATT Says:

    I think Leos part from the RVCA promo should be on their its sooo gooood I could watch that forever!!!!!
    EVERBODY LOVES LEOOO

  • cocksmack Says:

    J A K E J O H N S ON is the new lenie kirk!
    the S E C T is the shit!

  • Seth Says:

    Why the fuck is Heath's part from Mind Field not up for best part of the year thats for real bullshit he def. had a better part than Jake and Anthony's from mind field and david's from And Now.

  • patrick swayze Says:

    fuck yeah

  • dylan Says:

    hell yeah, anti hero for best team!

  • jtownbaby Says:

    gravette is probably way better than you. so please, dont speak.

  • jeff Says:

    kirchart should sweep everything fer sureeeeee

  • jACKY Says:

    GO GO TOY MACHINE!

  • Lerkins Says:

    The Video Parts thing seems way off. Those weren't even my favorite parts in Mind Field, much less of the year. What about Cole, Arto, Heath, Lutzka even for that Globe part?

  • john Says:

    toy machine is the best and everyone elses opinion is wrong so end it

  • hemlock drew Says:

    alien workshop might win because they had a more recent video but if it wasn't for toy machine…………………there would be no reason to ride a skateboard.

  • NJ all day Says:

    I agree but since my opinion is wrong would that also make yours wrong?

  • pasd Says:

    jake johnson best video part..? sounds damn right to me!! no second thoughts

  • Sean Says:

    Gravette rips everything from street to bowl to all kinds of ramps; insane speed, air and flow…

  • Gabe Larue Says:

    Malto has best video part of the year HANDS DOWN….AND ARTO ISNT HERE

  • cheed Says:

    Tyler Bledsoe in Mind Field was the fucking best part ever .

  • brandon Says:

    Team should be toy machine and best video part should be Arto's part in Mind Field!

  • alex Says:

    best video ride the skyªªª

  • greenroompassion Says:

    let me explain:
    lutzka cant win best vid part of the year becoz the video wasnt official and was only online. Heath is covrd cos hes already a nominee for two awards and best street skater is basicaly judged by his video part cos their footage is what makes the pros decide who wins than one. Mind Field is a nominee for best vid of the year which INCLUDES artos part so yea. Ride the Sky is also a nominee for best vid of the year and chris cole is pretty much the heart and sole of that whole video even thow EVERYONES PART IS GOOD!

  • Dominic Vialdores Says:

    Transworld Skateboarding Is Blowin It!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • Skater boy Says:

    Heath is the KING

  • asdfgh Says:

    yeah right

  • will Says:

    chris cole in ride the sky was by far the best video part

  • ooooo Says:

    where the fuck is heath kirchart's mind field part? that was the most epic fucking part ever

  • kill Says:

    heath in mindfield is best video part all day long.

  • john Says:

    I agree with Real as the best team and for the matter and team on Deluxe Distribution is sick as fuck but you are mistake for the video part. JAKE JOHNSON has a style that cant be duplicated. A part that good hasnt been seen in awhile

  • ssbsts Says:

    jack johnson

  • Xicht Says:

    WTF? Cole is not nominated for best video part? That's ridiculous.

  • greenroompassion Says:

    wtf? lol

  • Andre Corregi Says:

    I do agree 100%. Heath's part was sick, I'm hoping his Emerica part will be just as good or better.

  • a.sib Says:

    what about the duffman

  • Joseph Says:

    Gravette for Best Part? Seriously? Pretty sure Richie Jackson had the best part in And Now.

    And how about Antwuan's part in Baker has a Deathwish? And promo video or not, Lutzka's Globe part was bangin'.

    And who the hell is Andrew Allen? I think TW is out of touch.

  • Mcren10 Says:

    DEATHWISH and Lizard King Screwed

  • k3vin Says:

    is this for real

  • Alfredo Coloma Says:

    Heath should win all the awards, his part in Mindfield was the best part I watched in years!!!!! and he skated to Morrissey………….what else…………if such a thing a a perfect video part exists then Heath's part is pretty darn close.

  • j a Says:

    A.V.E.

    nuff said

  • darrin Says:

    there are so many things wrong with these nominations I don't even know where to begin.
    Since Bonnier took over Transworld has gone to SHIT!
    How the fuck is reynolds not a nominee for best street? Bust or Bail? Baker Deathwish promo?
    No Arto?

  • stanley steemer Says:

    really? didnt torey pudwill and mike mo go pro this year? how are they not rookie of the years? on top of that how is chris cole not in best part or mr crockett or bledsoe for breakthrough part the same as jake johnson? i hope andrew allen gets rookie just cuz hes a beasttttt. but there all sick. and malto prolly deserves it from the 3 picked, who knows.

  • skilldaddy Says:

    chris cole and toy machine ftw

  • sam Says:

    ave for best street and part, aw for best team, mind field for best video.

  • Velocedog Says:

    Sad. Where's Richie Jackson? William Spencer?

  • derrrrrr Says:

    i think joseph might be the biggest idiot in this thread……

  • brandon Says:

    jake johnson for best part: best song, good flow, perfect switch tricks how can you not give it to him i meen "fakie heel" sw bs wallride" "manual up to fakie manual fakie flip out"
    hands down JAKE JOHNSON. and baker has a deathwish was kind of stupid. It had some good shit here and there but we (skaters) pay 50 bucks for one of the decks just cuz they say DEATHWISH or BRYAN HERMAN on them there my role models and i want to see them skate. Best globe part was fuckin Jake Duncombe hands down. He tears shit up with his gnar style. And you dont know who Andrew Allen is. Get on youtube and watch his vid and go fuckin skate!!!!!

  • brandon Says:

    u r fuckin dumb Andrew Allen is one of the best switch skaters around go fuckin skate

  • brandon Says:

    at least someone is smart the only thing good up there jake johnson and heath kirtchart

  • jake leger Says:

    dude best street is gareth stehr!

  • Bob Says:

    What about Chet Thomas! he is soo great

  • Alex Says:

    it is very stupid cole and heath didnt get nominated for best video parts. coles ride the sky part might be the be the best display of skating ever

  • isaac Says:

    yo if any ones talk shit shit on kirchart just kill your self now. he is the man and always will be killing it.

  • isaac Says:
