vito's run was sick but he didnt go as high, but still should have scored higher in my eyes

snowboarders really like to butcher spins in the pipe, I cant watch it theres very little style and amplitude

I agree his run was sick. The only thing is he didnt have as much air as the other guys, he was too small and too young.

yeah vito really wasnt getting very high out at all. he was hucking like no other though. mason should have won with his first run.

his run was more solid but he did not grab nor get the amp...while white did a back to back 10 w/ a grab, so i guess that's why the judges score him so much better than vito

they were saying that aguirre got jipped and that his first run was defnitly first place potential and he got scored low because it was his first run and the scores were being "warmed up"

scotty lago should have won, he never bobbled or touched a hand down... mason defitenly deserved 2nd, and shaun whites bs 1080 was rediculous!

I dont think the judging was that bad. White just had more amplitude on all of his hits, hands down. What a tight cat, I can't believe he said he completly forgot about the olympics in his interview after the win. HA, what a dude.

agurrie's run was sooo much smoother then whites..white dragged a hand on a 1080 n agurrie was flawless through it all..both good riders but agurrie shoulda gotten gold n white silver

In my opinion all the runs look the same. I dont know how they would judge a run differently if you do the same tricks and dont fall.

i thuoght it was gay that vito got ripped off, he should have had a higher score bu shaun still deserved to win with three 1080's.

Shaun also put his hands down, I think Auggire (sp?) should have won. Does ski pipe get a best of three run format?

Vito is good but not as much air as shawn and air is vital in scoring

Yeah, he should have gotten a better score, but like you guys are saying, he just didn't have the amplitude.
