Skate influencer Jamie Griffin established himself as a two-time Battle At The Berrics champion, beating top-seeded professional skateboarders without a sweat twice in the grand finals.
Griffin's victory proved that you don't have to have a title as a professional skateboarder to dominate in BATB and become the king of flat-ground.
However, despite Griffin's flat-ground power, the core skate community, deeply rooted in the VHS and DVD era of skate videos, remains critical of influencers, YouTube skaters, and TikTok stars.
The online comment sections often echo disapproval, reflecting the core community's resistance to the social media-driven evolution of skateboarding.
Since his last post on November 17, 2023, the 22-year-old has mysteriously gone silent on social media.
Fans, accustomed to his regular presence are increasingly concerned about his unexplained absence.
The new generation of skaters awaits any updates from the missing BATB king, hoping to unravel the mystery behind his sudden departure from the digital skate clips.
