SLS Pro Open Barcelona

Typically, the Pro Open sets the stage for the rest of the SLS season. This year was no different. We saw the emergence of Yuto Horigome and Dashawn Jordan as the two new SLS Pros—these newcomers are bringing impressive tricks to the table. It will be interesting to see how they progress during the rest of the tour. Shane O’Neill and Nyjah Huston are still going to be dominant forces in SLS—the Pro Open clearly illustrated that fact. Kelvin Hoefler, Matt Berger, and Felipe Gustavo are going to be making their presence felt again in 2017 now that they are back from injuries. It will be interesting to see how all of this plays out at the next stops.
