In the Jerry Hall interview, he refers to the "routine" that tanner will do in the pipe next year.
What do you think it will be? All switch with amplitude ?(I think that Chris Turpin did the all switch thing a few years ago). Maybe going natural-unnatural on every wall.
Any other ideas except Sw 2160 at 50 feet in the air ?

sw 10, unnaty 10, sw 7, alley oop leftside flat 5, alley oop rightside flat 5, and i dont know what other crazy stuff hes gonna toss. I can't wait to see, and I really hope Simon can compete with it.

Simon going big is soooooo key to our sport because the bigger we go, the more gapers like to watch us. The more that gapers like to watch us, the more of a chance we have for olympic glory, and olympics= $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$.

Word to Andreas's run being more technical, and getting screwed.

As much as I love speculation (I heard Nick and Jessica might work things out), pipe runs I refuse to speculate. What is the point, they change them up throughout the season anyway. I just can't wait until EXPN starts airing promos about the Tanner vs, Simon rivarly and hyping that up all kinds...I mean, that's clearly the best thing skiing has going right now. Rivarlies make story lines and story lines make household names. The likelyhood of a middle of the pack pro (Justin Dorey for example, mad talented) winning the X games is nil. Story lines make for great "live" TV. An unknown winning, there's a story line. Tanner or Simon winning, story line.

Andreas Kills it... i think hes the best park skier in the world.. in pipe though i like LoLo Fauvres run from 3 years ago he shoulda WON over tanner.. that cork 7 omg soo sick..

Stefan thomas has mad pipe steeze too...

I think tanners run will include, Back to back 10's.. and possibly a double.... but his fakie 10s in pipe are fukin ugly... fakie spins in pipe should be a be kept below 7 casue it looks like suchj a fukin huck when they do fakie 9s and 10s

I know that he wanted to do switch ten to alley oop ten at the bottom of his run at x this year, but didn't for some reason (maybe too much snow or just playing it safe).

haha,good call! andreas is starting to develop a history of getting fucked in the ass by x games judges. but don't forget the other kids who also aren't getting the attention they deserve. i'm talking of course about two frenchmen and two finns- Kalle Leinonen, Aj Kempainen, Xavier Bertoni and Kevin Rolland. Those finns are so smooth and inhumanely steezy in the pipe, plus they get good amp, but unlike stefan, they do really tech shit too. Xavier is arguably the most tech guy in the pipe in the world, including a sw right 10 1st hit and a left 10 in the same pipe run, he just needs to work on the style and amp a bit. kevin rolland was likely to be the biggest thread this year- he qulified 3rd for x pipe finals but blew his knee in practice :( hopefully next year he stays fit because he goes HUGE whilst remaing stylie (octos and the rest). in other words, stay tuned this year fellas...

Word from t-line is tanner had a double flip, but he has an issue with it, and it might be on hold.

agreed.

but anyway prob a switch kangaroo to dub flat 9 octo. double misty truck, double 1620 blunt to opp blunt. steeziest air to fakie even tom wallisch is jeolous. switch right 12 50feet out take his skiis off and put em on backwards land and afterbang rideaway at 100 mph into that dipshit reporter that gave him shit in the interview a couple years back.

tanner will win x games pipe next year for sure. i mean this past x games it wasnt even close tanners level was so high above anyone else. And for all of you saying andreas is a god in pipe, well hes good but hes missing the amplitude, no alleyoops, and it does not look like hes improuved his pipe skills these past 2 years and tanners doing sick stuff with clean grabs apart maybe from the 12.
And i pray to god simon will realise taht hes got the amplitude but hes gotta start working on new tricks, and GRABS
