for those who said the pipe was shitty Quote:
'For me, this pipe is great,' said French phenom Candide Thovex, whose amplitude in training lived up to his unbelievable performances earlier this season. 'Any pipe is better than the ones we have in France.'
Dude, you just touched Kristy Boner's Whoo-Who's........Shibby!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I think that Shoya deserves props. He was going insanely huge, but also, and more importantly, he stuck it when it mattered.
Tanner's practice runs were in a league of their own. If he could've put it together in the comp he would have won for sure. He spins a 9 like no one else. CR and Candide were both off all day. Ive never seen so many hissy fits thrown by guys !
A comp is a comp, and anything could happen. As it turned out, all the big guns couldn't quite put it down perfectly for their 2 runs.
Chriton would have represented well, his warm up runs were sick. Reedy as well.
Made in Tasmania.
** I personally believe skiing is gaining soul. It's great to see racers ripping the pipe and boarders crossing over to skiing. If anything is taking away from the soul of skiing, it's the skiers who are in it for the wrong reasons, and the ones who are in chat rooms bagging on other people's style when they should be skiing **

I lost a lot of respect for Tanner after he wouldn't get of the wall of the halfpipe and was screaming. Candide was also very dissapointed woth his run, but instead he cracked some jokes. Henrichs spread was amazing on his last hit! And Shoya made the biggest hit I think I ever have seen on skis. I felt sorry for South America, because there are a lot of skiers on here he could of done much better, but its great to see them out their having fun and representing their region.

My feelings are similar to Ski Bum's Tanner Hall acted like a fuck. Also, I was very impressed with Candide. He seemed to flail less.

Tanner acted like a 3 year old...Candide had a much better attitude about it. I love how he said he didnt crash that he meant to do that.
