If tanner hall is in it, Im gonna go with him. Nobody is picking him to win it, since he hasnt practiced, but remember how good he looked in the boom edits.

I am really hoping for Andreas to get at least top 3, but he said he thinks the jumps are shity and way to small, which stops him from being able to throw his best tricks.

I think someone who're not really that hyphed up will take it.

You mean 2 years ago? I hope I can remember 2 years ago.

Pulling for Schiller and Casabon, but you have to say smart money's on Andreas.

hell yeah man. candide slays. he won it a couple years back too.

and i'm hoping that tanner throws down a mad style run. i don't care if he wins I just want to see him throw that smooth tanner style that i so dearly love watching.

this is a little off topic but do you think someone is going to get stabbed by a ski pole in the skiercross races with them pushing through the middle part of the course with how close they are.

  It's puking snow, making everything super slow and sketchy.

  On the bright side, TJ slaaaaaayed.  TJ is on top in qualifiers thus far, with Bobby right behind him.  Yes, Brown is iiiin.

  Really disappointed that the conditions will play such a spoiler today.  I was really hoping this contest would push things to the next level.  Let's hope everyone stays healthy, and that we see some crazy shit despite the uncooperative weather.

It looks like it, as Brown is competing.  Not sure about what happened toJacob...I was under the impression that he was the next alternate in line after Schiller (who took the spot of a injured JF).  Either way, jeeeea Bobby!  Come on...did anyone reeeeally expect to see Tanner compete? 

Thankfully, the weather is lightening up a bit!
