personally,i think schiller deserved first place but if that switch double-back wouldve been stomped, it wouldve taken gold.

TJ deserved to win. He was sooooo smooth with both of his jumps. After that I would chosen it as follows...

2. Hatveit
3. Olsson
4. Thovex

....and Peps 7 was ill if he had landed it and Jacob Wester's grab was out of control.

At least Pep killed it at AWOL where it was more about style than "spin to win".

Laurent Favre by the sounds of things...I never saw it, but from everything I have seen from him, I can assume it was smoother and better looking than everyones switch 10s...

Rory should have landed his switch double backflip the only reason he crashed was becuase his binding broke.

HOW THE FUCK DOES NO ONE THINK CHARLES SHOULD HAVE ONE? ON HIS FIRST JUMP HE DID A FUCKIN SWITCH UNNATY BIO 10 WITH A SOLID INSANE TAIL GRAB. THAT SHOULD HAVE WON NO ONE CAME CLOSE BY DOING NATTY 10 EVEN THOUGH A BUNCH OF EM LIKE TJ WAS REALLY SICK

pep's woulda been so dope if he had stomped it a little cleaner. He had by far the best style.

That would have made all the athletes think twice before doing another switch 10.

^problem wit dat is style cant really be judged, because opinions on style differ, and results would be contraversial

It really isn't even worth debating because the contest was so whack anyway. None of them headed out to the slopes ready for that poor excuse for a big air contest. Really wasn't fair on any account, bad judging or not...
