hey, what do you guys reckon the order would have been had the slopestyle gone ahead? personally i think
1. Candide Thovex
2. Corey Vanular
3. Jon Olsson - lol who else for bronze!
4. Sammy Carlson
5. TJ Schiller
6. Simon Dumont
7. Charles Gagnier
Personally i think TJ and charles had a blinder, and candide got screwed! neway, opinions...

I think tanner would have competed if it was slopestyle.
I think the top 5 would have been... in no particular order...
Pep
Jon
Gagnier
Tanner Hall
Dumont
Candide
ok... so top 6, all those guys would have destroyed the course

... i would have been much happier.
it still would have been switch 10 to switch 10 to win at the end, with like all the top 5 riders at least doing switch 10 to switch 10 in there run.
There would have been a couple steezed out runs.
But at least we could have seen some sick stuff on all the rail and boxes.
And possibly candide busting his nuts onto the gap to rail would have been fun to watch.

1. Jon - he must be so fucking pissed getting bronze (getting robbed) every year and therefore super motivated to take home his deserved gold
2. Gagnier - just so sick, spinns like no one else unnatty
3-5. Vanular/Wester/Carlson - sick and young
6.TJ
7.Thovex - prb. sickest on rails but never seen that guy spin unnaty

Candide would have won hands down. Biggest air, and definately the most technical air to rail tricks. Anyone else out there done an 810 gap to rail?

tanner took a pretty big crash in training on thursday...came up short on the x box "up" and hit the corner of the x box "down". hit him low in the thigh and slammmed his head onto the rail..he said he saw stars and that made the decision for him to pull out and just do pipe.
training on saturday was sick. steele and ganier were both hitting the gap to rail...the only ones i think. it would have been sick if they could have done the whole course for the comp.
