Candide's sw 10 was by far the biggest and best looking of the day. he went at least 15. ft bigger than anyone else and has his own unique style on corks that in my opinion looked way better than TJs
ohh, and rory bushfield is the fuckin man

Candide definately shoulda won, the judging was absolutely rediculous this year. It seemed like the judges basicaly told the riders that a switch ten would win, and that's why that's all people threw. It was boring to watch the same trick over and over, Rory's switch double back was sick too, too bad he didn't land it.

^ true true, they even scored stuff that wasn't a sw 10 rediculously low, like simons sw 7 truck driver, that was fuckin nasty. and he got what, like a 67.00 for it or some shit like that. what the fuck!

Shiller went big and landed smooth as well. Apparently holding grabs is more important now than going inverted/corked.

WOW! the x games blew. the whole swith ten thing was getting pretty boring. The judges gave TJ a sick score and then didnt let anyone even come close... not even candide, and that was a sick trick. SOOOOO GAY. the best parts were candides air and bushfields crazy ass

i agree....i mean to me, who gives a shit have many "frames" they can hold their grab? i think its about the overall stoke of the jump, and candide's jump got me way more excited to ski than shiller's. not to say shiller's wasn't good.
rory was amazing too. that made my day.
did anyone else besides me think steele spence should have scored higher by the way?
