Replying to X-Games - Nice try.
Whats worst about this illegit, half assed attempt at showcasing skiing, while focusing on making a profit ? All the kids out there who would have placed higher than half of the competitors and who will never get a chance to get their name out there.
Unless they open up the comp to about 40 to 50 people you will continue to see the same people, the same things, and espn will continue to put the same check in the bank.
Dont get me wrong, Tanners run, and wow, especially Peps, were some of the greatest runs i've ever seen, and believe me I've seen a few. But what about the dozen quebec rippers tearing shit up who wont ever get a chance to put their name amongst the likes of Candides... etc. What about all the groms in Alberta, BC, and the American Rockies ? The California crew, and what about the sick jibbers struggling to make a name in New England ? Hell, the midwest is bringing out rippers. Its a shame that skiing has a long ways to go before its eyes are totally open. Other than that, I'm pissed my man DC had to bail... I was hoping a fresh face would take the title.
