supposedly its going to be a pretty gnar setup, hence the invite onlyness
If you think you've got what it takes you could ask Krush to put you in like I did.

don't want to let the cat out of the bag butttt i heard its a down flat down. 12 feet down...9 foot flat...13 down. its i think a somewhat wide rail is what krush made it sound like. and they are covering the first set of stairs down and the flat with snow but not the bottom set of stairs...to get the "urban" look

they should leave all the stairs uncovered, infact they should put spikes dow next to the rail.

hmmmm unless things change, i hope they bump the skiers to saturday as well. It may require a large schedule revision, but well, a storm on sunday would fuck us over

jonas definetly deserved it. He did every trick grant did, plus more. and kunz's switch lip to switch up was money. the order of things was on point. gotta factor in style kids.

How much more did he really do? I thought he was good, but Grant's 270 on switchup (that he did twice) was pretty sweet. I'm pretty sure he also did a 270 lip which looked pretty clean too.

I dont know, if anything, Grant shouldn't have walked away with absolutely nothing. I think it should have been a tie.

best crash: tie, coby and tim durtchi(SP?)

i hate that they got rid of second, they should have done second and third places, and since they didn't they should have but out and given coby a tie for best trick for the 3 switch-up.

Yeah $3000 is a lot of money. Lowering 1st to $2000 would have still been a pretty good prize, and they couldve in turn added a 2nd and 3rd place.
