Following the men’s street VQS qualifier, the top six moved onto the semi-final, where they were met by seventeen skaters, making for a total field of twenty-three. This was the largest and longest contest of the Rockstar Energy Open and the most important for street skateboarders to make it in the top ten to advance into the final. Nevertheless, the fans who packed the bleachers, sidelines and climbed trees were in for a show.
