Skiers with the worst luck...

Who do yall think is the best skier, but just had a lot of bad breaks. This year mine goes to cr johnson. He had the best pipe round in qualifying, and beat out candide for overall score, also the breck qualifiers, my god, a flat-spin 7, he was sick, then in the finals he started fallin. But the athlete with the worst luck ever is rex thomas. This guy is so sick! He got 3 4th places in the year 2001 alone, and didnt get prequalified at all for the 2002 xgames(mike nick had a lower score and he got qualified...). Also, his performance in this years xgames was really unlucky, he kept on fallin. But he did damn awesome at the us open big air. But his first final heat was with tanner hall, now thats bad luck...

I agree man, CR has had really shitty results in comps this year while at the same time showing that he easily has what it takes to win if he can put a full run together. Lucky for him he's freakishly talented and could easily cruise for a few years on his results from last year alone so I wouldn't worry too much about him. I would kill to have a disappointing year like CR. His 900's at the X-games were so beast! I'm sure once he gets more used to flying 20 feet out of the Superpipe him and Candide are going to have some sick showdowns.

if his run would have gone down, he would've taken gold no doubt, that 9 was HUGE

I bet thinking like that had a great deal of influence on this years 'bad luck streak'

right on D-spin. cr's head has gotten a little too big and has upset his balance. not 'bad luck' if you can't lay down your run - just a bad run.

chris turpin has had some bad luck. Every time I see him he's in some sort of cast.
Matt Collins is a great skiier too, he blew out his knee and hasn't got the recognition I feel he deserves
