X slopestyle course

Anyone else think that the course is a little laking this year?. I was watching the boarders come down and its just not that spectacular. They are still using some of the same jibs as two years ago and the tables dont seam that big. I'd rather see a course where the riders really had to push their level just to hit the tables and rails that they could get more variations and tecnical tricks of off.

its lacking a lot. the only really cool rail is the up flat down staircase. they need some variation. like curved rails and hips and stuff

I agree. A 45 foot ''money booter'' hell the biggest at the x qualifiers was 55 or 60.

the urban trap is bad ass and so is the first satir rail but urban style rails are not good for showing crazy tricks on.

yeah, I couldn't believe what I was seeing.

30 ft. beginning jump...45 ft. money booter, were talking about the x-games. One of the biggest events of the year.

Everyone was hucking so hard to get their spins around...and the announcers sucked so much, they had no idea what they were talking about...yeah, I am disapointed

i agree. I usually look at the slopestyle course and say,'holy shit that's why I'm not a pro skier' because the jibs are massive. 45 ft? killington had a 45-50 footer last year. I will admit that the steralizer is fucking awesome though

i agree as well. i was up there yesterday and that's the first thing i said, 'wow, these tables are so small', all the snowboarders were speed checking so they didn't overshoot the landings. it's pretty ridiculous to have the best skiiers in the world and basically they've been given a mini-park. they definitely should have some curved rails. and they do have a hip no one hits it though.

no, they do have a 60 ft. table in the dealer's choice section, there is a rail to the left, 45 ft in the middle, and 60 ft table to the right. the problem is the riders usually hit the rail previously on the left, so they cant get enough speed to clear the 60 ft. It's a cool design, just not very well thought out.

i disagree. they really arent as small as they look. it is 45 to the knoll. you could take an air about 60 feet down on it. shaun white is throwin sick 9s on them so they cant be that small. and anyone who says there aint variation in the course is fuckin stupid. there is so many lines you could take through there it is rediculous. the ONLY thing that isnt in the course is a curved rail.

I was watching the boarder slopestyle, and I saw a curved box. But it was so far off to the left that it makes no sense to even have it there. (It might not even be on the course, it was so far out of the way).
