From what I've seen, a lot of the kids are throwing the same tricks, and the skill level wasn't too diverse, giving anybody a fair shot at winning.

there is always a usasa comp at smuggs once a year. apart from a couple of stowe kids everyone kinda sucks. like last year there were a bunch of little kids that had to be towed by the judges because they didnt have enough speed and didnt even make it up to the lip of the jump....

Usasa is a snowboarding bracket and skiers were recently admitted into, ussa is a much more competitive one when you get to A's

For nationals it should be pretty crazy. Last year Ben Moxham and Ian Williams where in the Pro division.

WRONG! actually usasa is more competitive, and has alot better parks for there comps, for example junior olympics had like a 30 footer and no dub flips, last years nationals had a 55 footer and dub flips, so ya

depends on the division. Like for example the rocky mountain series is a bit more competitive from what ive seen since you usually those kids do well in nationals

I got second place in slopestyle at nationals, which is saying something considering how fucking terrible I am at skiing.
