is it just me, or did this year's comp beat the shit out of last year? Look at how varied the podium was - Charles with sw12 Octo, Jacob with the Roo flip, and Sammy with the sw10. While it's lame that there were a bunch of people throwing sw10s still, there were all kinds of other tricks being thrown - Cosco's 180 (jea), Wilson's sw double back... I'm stoked on what went down. Skiing looks great in comparision to snowboarding right now - the slopestyle runs were fucking ridiculous as well.

is skifilms.com going to do anything with the big air like they did for the slopestyle? I feel like they'd do a great job - anyone know anything?

they were a lot of sw 1080s when i got there for the semis. boring. the best hits happened right as a i rolled up. schiller's sw 1440 and jon's kangaroo flip. however, gangier's 1260s were ridicouslly clean. i think they need to change the format so that you can't do the same trick everytime. carlson only did sw 10s
