Yes, another year skiing gets the shaft. Last year was an icy pipe, this year no slopestyle at all. Sure both where caused by nature and sure you can say the pipe was no one's fault but WHAT THE FUCK! No slopestyle at all!? SINCE WHEN DOES THIS HAPPEN EVER!? Look at moto-x best trick. They had to deal with the same weather but still got to hold their event- why you may ask? Well it's because of a little nifty thing called a RESCHEDULE!!! Ok, why is it alright to do this with moto-x and not skiing? Haha that's right I almost forgot, because X-Games doesn't give two shits about it, they're still stuck in the mid 90s where Moseley was still doing his biscutes and dinner rolls... and whatever assorted meal items he liked to toss. Honestly, I'm very happy that about half the atheletes tossed simple tricks such as 180s and 360s leaving the great announcers dumbfounded, "I really thought he would toss a switch 1080," the trick that happens to be tossed by every other living human with two planks attached to their feet, "and put his body on the line for X-GAMES GOOOOLLLLDDD!" Umm... Last time I checked it wasn't the U.S. Open. Sorry shitbricks, they're saving themselves for more important matters like I don't know... Anything but this. And for those who did toss the magnificant switch 10, congrats for winning a medal that will say you won in slopestyle. Shit I've got more to bitch about but I just cannot even find the words right now.

haha they were scared that skiing slopestyle was going to absolutely own snowboard slopestyle
can you say 360 switch ups on the gap box and probably corked 810 or something fucking nuts onto the rail after the death gap by candide?

you cant just reschedule an event like that....not if its gonna be live again. i agree that it was pretty dumb to watch because everyone was doing the same trick but sometimes you just have to deal with it and do something like this. if you cant get enough speed to hit all the rails and make the landings then there not going to hurt themselves by coming up short. this whole thing today sorta reminded me of the old school x games when they had big air

ya, i was super excited for slopestlye, it was going to be the first year i would actually watch it because i would be home, so i run down to my basement turn on the tv hoping to see some incredible slopestyle action. But guess what i see on my television set, a big air contest instead. I was so fucking pissed, i watched the first few minutes then left, it wasnt even worth it, the last time i checked, the us open big air happened last weekend, not this one. Oh ya, my ffl team was totally fucked because i was expecting slopestyle (carlson, rainville, vanular, olsson)

i have never felt this much hate towards anything in a while...it just tear's me up inside to see how far skiing has progressed...how stylie things have come...and a sw 1080 won it...i mean there are a ton of other tricks out there that would have
1. looked better than that 10
2. been style and just has hard of a trick
3. not as boring to watch
All times are Eastern (-5)
