Yo, posted this up in another thread so if ya saw that one, then this is nothing new.

This edit was from footy shot by one cam... so its only a highlight reel, Not full runs of the finals... just highlights from the day spliced together. Gives an idea of what was being thrown down but not the full final runs.

I've got some clips from Casabon's runs in practice and semis. I'll look into them after dinner..

^ yea that run was straight up DOPE... These judges pissed me off.

So many guys, including Phil, got absolutely raped.  Doesnt make any sense.

who the fuck are the judges anyway?? There is no way that they are actually qualified to judge unless they know what's "now" in park skiing and are actual park skiers themselves. I vote that Mousseau, Rogge, etc. judge

None of those two runs was the good run, first was a practice run and second was my first slope run...  second run was the good one

This is not as sharp as what skodeo7 put up, but i does catch the beginning of Casabon's first semi run plus the bottom half of the second semi run.

Maybe judges don't like steeze...?
Thats a shame, style is so much more visually appealing than spin to win...

What we saw of the second run was sick.  Is Casabon the only one who didn't hit the snow butter box? Looks like in practice he was spinning 7 off it but in the semis he went to the smaller feature.

My guess is the judges like the butter box.
