amplitude will win, its the xgames and judging is stupid. i still think that thall will take it though. i think turpin used to do switch only runs all the time. im pretty sure he did one at x a few years ago.

If Tufflemire doesn't take it then Paul Cotter is a shoe in for the win. I heard he has double lincolns to switch in the pipe.

shit man, i really hope jon finally gets what he deserves and wins one of these joints. but, hes too good, and shit is too easy for him, so thats never going to happen. keep on keepin on jon...you're the only skier who can pull off leather pants, and thats better than any gold medal in my book.
