I have a high up source that I know in the IOC and they said that SLOPESTYLE will be introduced for snowboarders and maybe skiers in 2014.

I don't think it will be because Shaun White will be Olympic Overlord by that time, and his wrath shall be cast down upon us skiers.

Don't hate on the women, "Those backside 180's are a hard trick."

Yo I liked Shaun's "180" his first hit in qualifiers. I stopped watching after that.

yeah right. straight airs look sick. it makes the run less of a huckfest. also it's hard to go huge on a straight air without rolling own the windows. look at the xgames high air . . .
