i love the nosepress on the closeout that he does, so styley. and the gap is insane, but it seemed like he was completely on point the entire time.

haha no way, what about henkrik's swith 16? there's only been one snowboarder to do a dub cork 14... which is insane but skiers have done some pretty crazy stuff, plus JOSS is the most innovative competition ever. snowboarders don't have anything that's really like that event.

Umm, being able to spin more and more rotations? That is a completely different aspect of "progression" that skiing may not necessarily want to flaunt

i wasn't trying to hate on snowboarding, i snowboard. but it was pretty styley for how much he spun, and i didn't mean to say that spinning=progression. but i think henrik has done a lot to progress skiing in terms of the tricks he does on rails and jumps, and how consistent he is.

wtf why didnt he double over it. Tom Wallace would of doubled over it.

but seriously that was fucken insane.. i would like to see some skiing urban like that.  I've used a toe rope like that to hit a rail but never really thought about crazy gaps.
