I love when the production guys talk about how they had to raise the lights because of how high he goes.

simon and tanner or on such different pages, tanner would rather be up in BC for the whole winter shreding lines and putting out movies while simon is more on the business end of things. both kill it for sure. on another note, for those who were bitching about how terrible the x-games big air was, too bad they didn't show the practice jumps, looks like some good stuff was thrown down.

Get over it. Tanner won, for a reason, SImon should have gone smaller if that meant winning. ITs over now so we might as well stop dwelling on it. FUck it, either way Simon seems overly cocky and Im glad Tanner had the smarter run.

Simon is a little bitch....."I had 7 hits and a right-side 9 I was gonna do...."....yeah, you were gonna win too, douche.  Tanner killed it.  Progressive, spins in both directions, and great style.  Thats what we're looking for.  Not 5 natural spins. 

Fuck amplitude.....Amplitude is this years spin-to-win....heh

How is he a bitch? he said "i was goin to take 7 hits but i was goin a little to fast and moving down the wall."  The fans like to see big air and thats who simon wants to please.

I agree tanner def. killed it, but saying simon is a bitch is just dumb. You dont even know so why dont you just chill out.

of course the x games fans wanted to see big air, they cant tell the difference between progressive style and a high spinny trick
