By the end of day two of the Dew Tour in Boston, the massive field had been whittled down to the final twelve skateboarders: Dennis Busenitz, Chaz Ortiz, Peter Ramondetta, Paul Rodriguez, Ryan Sheckler, Ryan Decenzo, Carlos De Andrade, Chris Mendes, Chris Cole, Rodolfo Ramos, Dave Bachinsky, and Greg Lutzka. The finals were scored on the combination of a run and a jam session format. In the end, Sheckler came out on top, and consequently, thousands of teen and tween girls nearly brought down the barriers as they attempted to come within arm’s reach of the champion of the day. As you can tell by the video, photographer Chris Ortiz and I were flabbergasted to witness “The Sheckler Effect” first hand. Luckily all parties made it out alive, the smoke cleared, and it was time for the TransWorld Best Trick contest at the Dew Tour. Coming up next.—Eric Stricker

even though chris cole just won maloof, i feel like he shouldve won this too, destroyed it
and hahahaha that girl was seriously crying because she wanted sheckler to sign something so bad
July 28th, 2009 at 6:25 pm
sheckler did the same tricks he always does in comps simple stuff he didnt deserve to win he sucks
July 28th, 2009 at 6:41 pm
Ok I went to this thing, And Decenzo and cole were Robbed, Granted I do think Sheckler Did Good, But Not 1st place Good, And I went home To watch the show, and the camra was like only on Sheckler during the jams, Chris cole Absolutly Killed it., He said That all those Girls were there "for skateboarding", Thats a load of Crap, They were there becuase they "love" Ryan sheckler" It was a fricken beauty Pajent.
July 28th, 2009 at 6:47 pm
any fan who follows skateboarding enough realizes each rider does the same tricks in every contest, which makes it get a little stale. at least maloof brings out some new faces and the jam format helps too.
July 28th, 2009 at 7:11 pm
next level of skateboarding guys , screaming girls for sheckler , lol
July 28th, 2009 at 7:12 pm
if u wanna b on the next level of skateboarding u gotta have the chicas screaming ur name
July 28th, 2009 at 7:46 pm
that was pathetic, i feel so bad for those girls… not having a brain must hurt.
July 28th, 2009 at 7:48 pm
Scheckler has no switch game and no interesting tricks. Predictable.
July 28th, 2009 at 7:50 pm
Cole for the win! X GAmES
July 28th, 2009 at 8:00 pm
OMG The first switch tricks fort sheckler ! …. in more than 12 years of skate
Seriously How can he win ?! …
And the girls who cry … pathetic
July 28th, 2009 at 8:29 pm
its amazing how you cant do any of them…
July 28th, 2009 at 9:00 pm
Are the gay dudes talking at the end of the video serious? THIS is the next level of skateboarding?
July 28th, 2009 at 9:05 pm
its not the next level of skateboarding its a lower one. ryan sheckler does the same damn tricks every time while cole throws down switch tres and prod does smooth switch back lips sheckler does his cabs to board and a backside flip on something big. ridiculous. ryan sheckler is good but he never takes it to the next level
July 28th, 2009 at 9:14 pm
sheckler looks like a 14 year old girl. and he's a general piece of garbage. the epitome of douchebag. robbing decent folks. what the hell?
July 28th, 2009 at 9:48 pm
cole can pretty much do any freakin trick in the world. he even lands the big bangers like first or second try eg back 360 down wallenberg. sheckler is just a sellout fag. he'd better join some gay boy group cause that's where he belongs.
July 28th, 2009 at 9:58 pm
This is skateboarding? Come on. This is a PR-horny, overrated little dipshit we're talking about. Fuck him and his "skateboarding".
July 28th, 2009 at 10:00 pm
Hope he dies of cancer.
July 28th, 2009 at 10:42 pm
its like the judges want all the usual people to win and don't want any new faces messing it up.
i wanted busentiz to do really well
July 28th, 2009 at 11:21 pm
not 2 be gay or anything but at :40 on shecklers 3 flip im pretty sure hes wearin tightey whiteys hahahah
July 28th, 2009 at 11:33 pm
Hahaha maaan! All those girls screaming and then you notice that dude there! Ahaha! You're doing it wrong.
And you guys posting here: stop taking it s seriously. It's not skateboarding anymore, it's show business. See the JCPennyes ads? Yeah… Don't even wish to see true skateboarding here.
July 28th, 2009 at 11:54 pm
THIS IS THE FUTURE OF SKATEBOARDING? If you could fart out of your mouth I think thats what it would sound like.
July 29th, 2009 at 12:12 am
sad eh lutzka doesnt bust anything new….he on kswiss,,,
sold out!
globe was soo much better..
July 29th, 2009 at 12:16 am
what the hell if your not ryan sheckler you cant win in the dew tour fuck the dew tour
July 29th, 2009 at 12:42 am
it's like an all you can rape buffet
July 29th, 2009 at 12:47 am
alright so prettymuch
sheckler did the same tricks he does at every contest
lutzka did the same tricks he does in contest
p-rod killed it
chaz ortiz got robbed by sheckler
cole got robbed by everyone beacuse he destroyed everything and did harder and more tricks on everything
and ramondetta killed it and kept it real.
why does sheckler have to win??!
July 29th, 2009 at 12:51 am
YES I TOTALLY AGREE
July 29th, 2009 at 1:02 am
If little pre-teens screaming for ryan lame-as-hel sheckler is the next level of skateboarding than I have lost all hope in this sport that i so love. Any skater who has a reality TV show and more fans that are teenage girls than actual skaters is a huge SELL-OUT in my book (not to mention his Panasonic sponsor wtf). Lutzka is not on globe anymore and if he is on KSWISS that is lame as shat as well. The Dew Tour represents everything that is wrong in skateboarding. This has turned skateboarding into a freaking beauty pageant and it is pathetic. There should only be Am contests from now on. At least Ams are unknown to teenage girls, willing to go big, and do way more gnarlier tricks in contests. It is sad to see that this is what the mainstream has done to skateboarding. Where is the creativity and most importantly the FUN?
July 29th, 2009 at 1:11 am
Are you defending sheckler's lack of steez/tech/gnar? Because if you are you seem like one of those little girls screaming for sheckler to sign your arm so you tell never wash it off and tell all your girlfriends about how "OH OMG like ryan like sheckler like totally signed my arm and like i think were are gonna get married one day and like im gonna be on his TV show and like hes such a big celebrity and now I'm like gonna be famous"
July 29th, 2009 at 1:28 am
wow i cant believe the tws guys said that. why. like this is a disaster. i went to the thing and it just pissed me off by the fact that all these girls showed up to see shecklers FACE and not him skateboard. The judges also dont understand what switch is. and the announcers cant even call the tricks right. so i mean how are u gonna judge a contest if u dont know how hard a switch trick is. i mean cmon. decenzo killed it
July 29th, 2009 at 1:56 am
I quit skateboarding after i saw this.
July 29th, 2009 at 2:17 am
Yeah! Go sheckler…
July 29th, 2009 at 2:20 am
The Dew Tour full stop is very badly done TV Coverage and course design is woeful.
the Winter Dew Tour only got to be watchable after the NBC attempts at the Ski Cross course almost killed Casey Puckett and friends.
Let's see the X-Games get bigger and better at least I can handle the Danny Way obsession he has actually ridden a skateboard correctly. Remember the first xgames sheckler won thyat course was built for him. Let the skaters ride the BMX freestyle ramps and let the best skater win street or vert i personally don't care i want to see real skating like Rune Glifberg does and John Cardiel does.
July 29th, 2009 at 2:29 am
Decenzo shouldve won, he absolutely killed it. didnt show alot of what he actually did! OR obviously chris cole, need i say more
July 29th, 2009 at 2:49 am
Cole's fs 180 to go f urself grind…really… how is that not the jam? That was awesome.
July 29th, 2009 at 3:18 am
yo my man in the blue was killing it, this looked like maloof all over again. non contest skaters skating in a contest. dope
July 29th, 2009 at 3:38 am
i hope i die before the next level of skateboarding
July 29th, 2009 at 4:48 am
Sheckler Should Die That Kid Funkin Blows Im Sure One Of Businetz's Ollies Were Better Looking And Harded To Do Than Any Of That Kids Tricks. Sheckler Should Have His Own Cereal Or Something…What A Mess.
July 29th, 2009 at 5:20 am
it always amazes me that sheckler can come out with a win when he obviously wasnt the person who skated best. every contest except for the maloof has turned into image more than real skateboarding. they let sheckler win so all those dumb ass girls in the crowd can be happy. and now sheckler has started his own clothing line for jc penney. doesnt he have enough money already?
July 29th, 2009 at 1:59 pm
who the fuck are these fools talkin in the video at the end LOLOLOL?!?! next level my nuts
July 29th, 2009 at 2:58 pm
yo stop hateing. noones gonna make this fun for you.
you have to make your own fun .
theres not alot of competitions out there and we need them to eat so
shut your mouth because your prob a 12 year old little douchebag who skates in his basement.
July 29th, 2009 at 3:04 pm
I want to fuck all this young pussy sheckler fans
July 29th, 2009 at 3:08 pm
if this you love skateboarding then why did yyou just call it a "sport?" tsk tsk tsk you're just one of them in the inside! i cant believe you just refered to skateboarding as a sport.. i guess you didnt love it as much as you thought! so this is what this site is all about.. sh-t man.. what has happened to skatboarding? its funny that all the kids talking shmack here are the same ones that goes to spot to sit around and watch others skate!
but i do agree on one thing shecks shouldn't have one and you know it to ryan… i'll see you next week at tina's party!
July 29th, 2009 at 3:11 pm
chris cole killed it.he did a switch tre over the long gap. shackler only did a switch kickflip after the switch tre. even worse, the tws guys described sheckler as the next level of skateboarding because girls love him.
have you noticed all tws skate magazines have army advertisements. sell outs
July 29th, 2009 at 3:13 pm
yeah except sheckler
July 29th, 2009 at 3:15 pm
FYI
sheckler sucks.
July 29th, 2009 at 4:01 pm
okay obviously Sheckler is good or he wouldn't be winning a bunch of Dew Tour's and stuff, i mean yeah he can think highly of himself but still he's a good skater!
July 29th, 2009 at 7:10 pm
someone below me said it best, its like an all u can rape buffet
July 29th, 2009 at 8:17 pm
Did anyone actually watch the dew tour?! Sheckler absolutely did switch tricks both in Boston and at Maloof…something he's been working on a ton this past year and you can tell. He's absolutely improved as a skater and he deserved the win. If you go into watching the dew tour expecting Sheckler to suck then you're gonna find reasons for it. Try watching next time and not thinking about who he is. Just watch what he does and judge him on that. P.S. he can't help that he's fucking sexy. He was just born that way. Perhaps you should be hating on his hot ass mother instead. P.P.S regarding his money..he takes advantage of opportunities to take care of himself and his family. big friggin deal. and now he has clear skin and smells good to boot. booya
July 29th, 2009 at 9:43 pm
damn right, Maybe sheckler has bought it, or the judges are 15 year old chicks crazy about him
July 29th, 2009 at 10:49 pm
why am i not suppised that sheckler won this, he always wins dew tour
July 30th, 2009 at 12:35 am
I found it - go to thrasherskateboarding.com and never come back, its the right site
July 30th, 2009 at 4:38 am
did you fucking here the screaming going on when sheckler pulls a mediocre switch flip and how no one was even hyped on a switch front three from ryan descenzo
it shud have gone to decenzo or cole or p-rod, maybe even chaz ortiz
definetley not sheckler
July 30th, 2009 at 4:39 am
MUCH RESPECT TO SHECKLER…DUDE RIPS BESIDES ALL THE BULLSHIT PPL SAY ABOUT HIM…MAD RESPECT… BUT DUDE HE SHULDNT HAVE WON THAT!! CHRIS COLE OR RYAN DECENZO DID WAY HARDER TRICKS AND LANDED THEM WAY CLEANER…BUT HEY U CANT BLAME SHECKLER FOR ALL THE HOES WHO WANN FUCC EM…
July 30th, 2009 at 4:58 am
i agree with i hate the dew tour it almost makes you feel ashamed of yourself so many companies are only in for the money i hope it doesnt get any worse than it is
July 30th, 2009 at 5:27 am
fudge the dew tour the only good thing was cole, busentiz, dompierre, ramondetta, and decenzo
July 30th, 2009 at 5:28 am
how about ortiz does something besides nollie big spin and kickflip to wutever grind?
such a douche
July 30th, 2009 at 9:32 am
i hate ryan sheckler
July 30th, 2009 at 10:23 am
I completely agree with this, And it's kind of sad to see people like sheckler looking at skateboarding as nothing but a job! LAME
July 30th, 2009 at 3:18 pm
wow actually a switch flip outa shecker….ppl need to stop hating on him…hes not one of my favorites but hes got a clean style and has his tricks on lock…..cole shouda took the win by far though
July 30th, 2009 at 5:06 pm
youre a fucking retard kill yourself. sheckler will shit all over you. dont get philosphical about skateboarding when youre an idiot. skateboarding goes its own way with everyone it affects you shitdick
July 30th, 2009 at 5:08 pm
you dont know anything to be honest. sheckler will s hit all over you. you dont know anything about skateboarding and i think it would be better for the world if you killed yourself. so hes on tv. do you understand how skilled he is as a skateboarder. get off the bandwagon you d ouchenozzle
July 30th, 2009 at 10:31 pm
The Dew Tour is kinda gay. The course looks good, and all the people that entered were rad, but Sheckler always winning the Dew Tour and nothing else kind of proves that shit is rigged.
July 31st, 2009 at 3:28 pm
kid up top hit the nail on the head, if screaming teenage girls is the next level of skateboarding, then fuck it. I quit

October 16th, 2009 at 2:04 am

October 18th, 2009 at 10:07 pm
he obviously won for a reason. the chicks and the fame just come with the talent. there are real judges critiquing him and they aren't biased because of the number of fans he has. he just has skill.
October 20th, 2009 at 7:48 pm
YEAH ! Go Ryan , you're sick dude ! all the haters… just fuck them, they have nothing to say about your skating cause its flawless! Your killin' the game, as always !
PEACE
