Well they have all the athletes on the freeskier website, and I have to say im really pleased wih it, we will def see pep in slopestyle, rory bushfield and jordan monk in superpipe. I like the way they are integrating the rookies and up and comers into the events.

It's not that they're conciously integrating. the atheletes are placed based on certain comp results which is why Bushfield (Aussie X winner) and Monk (WSI) are in. Pep on the other hand is just a god and ESPN would have their head up their ass not to include him.

I'm happy, Candides in both, and Jon Olsson. Now only if Mickael D. Makes it through a X-qualifier.

i havent looked at the list...but someone was asking if tanner, or vinnie, or jf were in. of course tanner is...he won them last year. and jf and vinnie, they dont even have to pre qualify for it. they are automatically in. thats how it is, and thats how its always been.

pollard isn't injured, i saw him about 2 weeks ago at a ski premire, and he was walkin fine, and said that he was over the injury and ready to ride again. I hope he has a good year.

JF isn't in yet.. i hope he makes it just cuz he's JF and I respect the skiing with a hangover. Iannick B i also hope will make it. He just kicks ass. Otherwise I'm fairly happy with the list
