BS swup on the lift cable was one of the sickest things I've ever seen.  Sick feature - the step up to flat down box.  I want one.

How the hell do they DECIDE this? There have been at least 5-6 of these things that have legitimately warranted a spot, perhaps more than some of the invited guys.

He's definitely good, but I dunno about the King of Style. Too many backseat and nose heavy switch landings. Ima have to go with LJ or Chris Logan f'sho.

Mertion is definitely good. I'd look for pure style in this type of competition and fucked up dubs and weird grabs don't do it for me. Durtschi clearly has the best dubs into pow, LJ and Logan clearly do the nicest blunts and stomp landings the cleanest. Vote for someone that doesn't huck or afterband, think about steeze over tricks and choose wisely. Obviously to each their own, but if anyone votes for Gus Kenworthy your vote shouldn't count.

The Heavy switch and back seat landings are his style, haven't you ever seen his other edits?

Anyway, Leigh is one of the best riders out there and is way under rated.
Heavy landings look better anyway.

Sean I could just as easily say Chris Logan is basically a machine (in a bad way) in his spins and only knows how to do one grab... a grab that got old when Candide did nothing else back in 05. Style and creativity go hand in hand as well.

To each his own I guess. I just don't understand how a "machine" of carving aka skiing into jumps, spinning all 4 ways aka complete control, and grabbing blunt aka skiing could possibly be a bad thing when it is being compared to chucked dubs aka womens Chinese gymnastic team, nose heavy and backseat landings aka not completely in control, and futuristic robot grabs held for 360 of a dub 12 aka.... wack.

that was so fucking sick. Was the last shot a sausage 12? I dont know if its just me but I cant even imagine staying corked for that long. A dub cork is was easier for me to visualize

THIS.

Especially the ender. Worst style ever. I don't care if he can do like 238947392847 flips while grabbing his knees.

And also, I'm not sure why McChesney hasn't been mentioned at all, his landings are as smooth or smoother than anyone... Go watch the rode 12 and tell me they aren't.
