Level 1 just posted an update with the new rules for Superunknown VII. Personally, I think it's going to lead to a lot better entries.

no repeat tricks? I think an edit would be THAT much better if the skier mixed in some pretzels and kfeds and superfeds.

That is dope... the no repeat rule will force kids to show depth, and the switch up rule will keep the spin to win entries to a minimum. That is rad!

The final date needs too be extended. We would see way better tricks if kids had the whole season to put it together.

I think this will show some who is the more diverse skier.
I think the rule changes are going to make the videos a lot better.

theyre two different tricks, i assume if you can show you throw a nasty left and right 7 that would make you a better pick than just a left or right. put lots of unaturals in, so they have no idea which way you spin. that would be even better.

it would make for better edits, but you gotta figure in the time it takes to decide the finalists, and a winner, and ship them out to where ever the park shoot is.

Word on max of 25 switchups.. there less than that in wallisch's S.U., and no need for anyone to ever do more than that... especially in a 2 1/2 min edit

those are clearly different tricks, just use your head

switch 7 mute and switch 7 tail= different tricks

5 mute and 5 blunt= different tricks

its not that hard to figure out

I got 22 but that was in 6 mins so I don't see how you can do 25 sw ups in 2 1/2 mins
