shafted reaaaaaal hard

Very strange judging for sure... Russ got screwed as well

Crazy scores for different things... there wasn't any consistency in judging or judging criteria

fun competition though for sure

It seemed like the judging was pretty wack in qualies.  Russ Henshaw had a crazy run finishing with a double cork 12 mute and got like 78 or some shit.

This was Russ's run in Semi's:
Down rail- 270 on 270 off.
Snow box - Switch 180 up front flip off
Cannon Box- Cork 810
1st jump- Switch right side 1080
2nd jump Switch Left side 1260
3rd jump left side double cork 1260

He came off the top rail a little early but other than that he stomped everything. Do you guys think this is worth 12th?

When the style was as bad as his was in this particular run....yeah. He looked so wild and out of control and his spins were so damn fast that the judges were definitely not into his run at all. Yeah, he did tons of technical stuff but the switch 10 and 12 were exceptionally hucked.....as in "hard to watch" hucked.

The kid is definitely talented but your description leaves out some very important data.
