The other submissions doesn't bring anything new to the table. Of course some of the tricks in the other videos haven't been done exactly like they do it. But it's nothing unique, and that is what you need today because there is to many people doing what you call "tech tricks" with the only difference, from the 100 others who can do the same trick, probably being for example a tweak or a certain headmove when you land. For example, Frej Jönsson did a double cork 7 a few days ago, THAT was unique. Something that no one else has done before, a whole new kind of spin. Bobby Brown did a triple 16. That wasn't unique, it was of course insane, but "all he did" was adding an extra 180 to a trick he, and a few others, already have done.
Why would Level 1 need another rider filming with them doing the same trick that the riders they already got does? Why would they be interested in another rider who can bust out a double cork 10 double grab at a park shoot when they already got at least 4-5 who can do that? You can't say that the style of the other videos was better, it's not a fact, it's your opinion, that is what you think. But what you can say is that a lot of the tricks that Lucas does is tricks that no one else was doing. THAT is a fact.
