I don't know but any way FIS sucks !!



Freeskiing is a lifestyle, and true skiers are the ones who live this lifestyle, not the ones who follow it.

They arent letting them go, they are just might loosen up the rules and let them invert....Rememeber the controversy with Moseley throwin a Dinner roll..they may get more lenient in that respect

All inverts are allowed this year... they've even gone so far as to state: no more than two twisters can be performed in a single jump.

it only took them 20 years to realize what they'd done. wow that was such a quick wait. I mean if they had gone any slower there'd be no skiers left to compete.

I think the reason they weren't allowing inverts was because of aerials. If they allowed inverts, the aerialist would basically be ignored. Now with kids throwin down sick shit in the park, the flips and spins of aerials looks like childs play.

Am I the only one that think aerials are on their way out of the sport of skiing?
