just putting it out there that the level of tricks that skiers throw off the cannon box in the x games slopestyle course seem to blow away what snowboarders are doing. snowboarding is on right now and the biggest thing ive seen off it from one of them is a 5? thats not to say what they are doin isnt smooth it just doesnt seem to be onthe same level

Skiers are doing bigger tricks on EVERY SINGLE FEATURE. I don't dislike boarders, just stating the truth.

I saw a Rodeo off the box from one snowboarder (the guy in 1st or 2nd right now), but yeah, we can do more cause we have two more edges and more control on features like that.

This is the lamest showcase of snowboarding I have ever seen.  It's so boring that they just talk about what shawn white is going to do in the pipe an it just makes me want to throw my tv out of my 6th story window.

It seems like the features of the slopestyle course this year are more oriented towards the skiers. The runs the skiers are doing are a lot smoother and way more technical imo.
