Unfortunately, we have some terrible news. Skate icon and Primitive skateboarding head honcho Paul Rodriguez tested positive for COVID-19 and missed the Battle At The Berrics finals night.

Former BATB champion Chris Cole filled in to replace PROd on the finals night, and fans knew that the influencer Jamie Griffin would win the whole thing, in which he beat Cole and will face Tyler Peterson in the grand finals.

We wish Rodriguez all the best and a full recovery.
