OKay i have vowed never to spin to win a whie lago no matter what. Unless we all agree to only throw down creative sweet tricks this wil never end, and NO a switch 1440 is not creative. just becuase judging is gay it doesnt mean we cant sotp it ourselves, if we can contorl ourselves to jsut not huck our bodies over 7 (and even 7 is bad) judges will open their eyes and conform. so please join and i alos mean on rails , spinnig towin on traisl is JUST as bad.

I dont agree that spinning is bad.

Spinning to win is bad.

Spinning to add style and flow to a trick can be good.

I cant wait till a straight air wins a big air though.

Oh yeah baby.

i completly disagree i think that you dont want over 7 because u cant do it yourself. in the case wihtt eh xgames they had a way to small jump to style out any huge tricks. Who r u to say that spining is bad anyway?

Hes a skier just like you. And spinning is bad because it makes the trick not look as nice.

And he can spin over 7 so thanks.

if oyu know how to do a trick then its eazy to stly out you just need the right jump. look in the newest vidoes 10's are all over, the only reson ppl dont nag the vids is because the jumps are massive so the skiers ahve time to do the tricksgood. can you blame the pro's for wanting to win the x-games and a sw 10 was ovisily wat it took.

The jump was only a 65 footer, too small to make the switch 10's stylie, so I agree spinning like hell of tiny jumps is dumb, but beef up the kicker and then slow-rote a stlyie 10 it is cool.

it is not the skiers that you have to convine you ahve to convince the judges because as long as they award spinnig to win skiers will do it to win especially the x-games

you will never get everyone to cooperate on that one because the fact is the we go to comps to not only have fun but to win.
