1) Tanner will win slopestyle
2) Schiller will throw his "new axis" and everyone including the announcers will miss it at first, and people will talk about it for months on NS.
3) NS will be buzzing until may about how Jon should've won.
4) Tanner will say some gangsta Montana hood shit to Sal.
5) I will get pissed and turn off slopestyle.
6) The wind will be crazy for pipe and nobody goes 20 ft. out. Turpin wins pipe, with a run entirely switch and gives the suck-it sign to all of aspen, while hanging his medal on his dong.

its very obvious whats going to win. one footers.

one footer take off straight air to one footer landing. you dont even need to do other jumps all you do is one jump one grind and then you just stop. the judges will give a 99 to that

idk, CR's spots will probably be open soon. I couldn't imagine him competing after that terrible injurry. I actually really like the TBA spots because riders work really hard to get them. I'm not sure if Turpin wants to compete in Pipe this year because he got completely ass-fucked last year, but I hope so... I'm standing by my #6 prediction above haha.

I think most people will be throwing cab 9s both ways, some cab 1080s both ways. that's unfortunate since it will still be a "spin to win" but whatever

well i think the judges and people at espn have been reading our shit and if anyone throws anything over a five they will lose.
every competitor will be zero spinning every hit.

That is just wishful thinking on my part. Turpin is so underrated, and after last year when that entirely switch pipe run didn't even get him out of the prelims, he deserves some retribution. That just makes me go crazy. He was obviously the only guy doing it... and it's not like it was 2-3 hits swtich... the whole run was backwards. Yeah it takes a lot to go that high like dumont and candide, but just because Turpin isn't a big name dude, doesn't mean they have to do that. My non skiing friends think it's crazy that we ski backwards let alone go off jumps backwards. I think carving switch up 88 degree vert walls, is just as impressive as going that high, even if not more so.

And Turpin, if by chance you read this, please try to qualify for X. I know you got screwed last year, but there are people here that realize your ability and
maybe things will be a little different.
