    With KWC officially announced by GLOKEN, we should have a new thread for the upcoming KWC. This will be my first KWC yet, and I would live to see speculations for tricks, players, and winners this year!
    Here is the official announcment on Gloken's instagram:

    EDIT.
    Not going to KWC most likely...:oops:

    I would like to see a inward lunar double back flip in the higher levels. If it can be done.

    I will take up this challenge, record it and send to Gloken!
    Looks to me like it's a Level 9 at best.

    This would be a pretty sick trick.

    That's what I think too dude. I can almost do the regular lunar version. It's easier to cushion the weird catch. But the inward is tough. Does anyone know if it's been done?

    I bet there is going to be at least one gypsy flip trick. Have there been borders tricks in the past? or is that a no no

    It’s been mostly Gloken recording in the past but I’m pretty sure if you record it in their format and quality that they’ll definitely take a look into it.

    You can.
    As long as it’s clear and sharp (4K 60fps is best), with no obtrusions from the background, leaves no ambiguity to the execution of the trick (clean AF; this is KWC after all), and not long-winded, your trick can be considered by the KWC trick committee.

    lol my favorite part is his hastag- notagiveadama. lol. Sometimes I wonder if the Galleghers even do school or if they just grind 24/7. idk, maybe they're just just insanely talented.

    Does anyone know how to submit a trick to gloken to get it evaluated for a KWC 2018 trick? Is this for sponsored players only, or how does it work, and where do you submit it?
