It is pretty lame that ABC only will cover snowboarding. THE MASSES ARE ASSES! And thanks to abc for contributing to this fact.

i wanna see someone hit that huge transfer to flat down rail. Also the gapped trap rail looks pretty crazy and has some crazy combo options.

i think that was put there for CANDIDE, and yeah its a pussy rail set up.and I think the last jump should be 75 instead of 65

It would show so much if a skier hit the gap to rail in their run and a snowboarder didn't.

moto x shouldn't be in the winter games. for one, its in the summer xgames, and for two, its pretty homo anyways.

Moto X is gay...
For a long time it was great, tons of progression and all that shit.. but now...
its like... backflip this, backflip that, huge crash here and there, more backflips, oh wow a corked backflip WOW...
Its not progressing very much anymore..
The only other thing that can be done is a double back... and thats for the future.
Who gives a shit about that sport, and on snow? Its just stupid.
Just gives them more chances to show pastrana and metzger and all that bullshit.

ESPN and ABC execs don't really hang out on newschoolers, perhaps a well witten letter would help getting your message across? Have someone that writes well and that can get to the point write a letter and post it here, then, everyone email/mails it to ESPN and ABC. That should have a bit more impact than whining here.
