The word "master" is so fitting for a rider like Luke.

He's been in this game for a loooooong time, and really has mastered his bike moves.

He dominates!

(another MA victory, I predict!)

Tight riding from both.
Luke's jam packed battle run, goes through for me on this one.

I think that Luke cheated by using the force :P. Or wait is he skywalker?  ;D

Seriously, his run is perfect, he seems to have the complete control of his bike. TAKU has control too, but he hasn't done any back wheel tricks or only a few. And, Luke has done the same amount of front and back wheel trick and a Backpacker!!!, that is one of the most difficult tricks ever!

.....What?

His multiple whiplashes were about 10000000x harder than a backpacker. With a backpacker you just... stand up and go.

It depends on how original something is. A minor variation isn't really original, while transitions in movement that nobody else is doing can be. I didn't see a lot of stuff in Taku's video that screamed "original" to me, but I didn't see anything in Lukes video that was original either.

Luke gets my vote.

Both guys' runs were equally difficult in my time, there was nothing extremely original in neither of them, but Luke just showed much more stuff.

It looks like I lost. Congrats Luke and thank to Ondo and all the judges. Now I feel I could have done better. And I actually can do the one of the hardest trick BACKPACKER! I really should have done it!!!

Taku- Stoked on the no-hand intro to no-hand hang ten. Also diggin' the sweet style.

Luke- What can I say... tough tricks, wide variety, and some creativity.

I'd say Luke is my choice for the win.
