I never even heard of him at the X-games, he was my pick for slopestyle. What happened?

him and mercon had the last two spots in qualifying, and a blizzard moved in, and they cancelled everything for 30 minutes, then they decided they had to get the slopestyle in that day, they couldnt postpone it, so mercon and steele had to go in the blizzard and both fell and sketched out, although mercon threw the sicket cosack off the bottom jump... they definatley got the shaft, but like it has been said before x games is now a made for TV event, no one cares about the riders happiness or safety....

steele's big air jump was a clean switch bio 1080 - but he didn't advance to finals. some others thowing straight switch 1080's went bigger, and that's what the judges were looking for.

steele, simon, olenick, borownowski, etc. - all those guys skied in the semi's but didn't make it to the final round. steele's run looked good and technical, natural and unnatural 9's, 450's off rails, etc, but not what the judges were looking for.

Amplitude probably. That and like having a 900 or 1080 off a every jump. Smooth switch cork 5's are NOT recommenable..
LAME!
