Yeah that's pretty ridiculous, I think Andreas should have won that heat. Seems like he always gets shafted and always still just has fun.

Wow. Bobby gets a 40 for a dub 12 with a wobble landing and jossi does sw dub 14 stomp and gets 39? And Wester and Wells both had 77s, meaning they should both go into the finals. Why did only Wester get in and not Jossi?

Let's just stop hating on the judging, and be stoked for the amazingly sick tricks that are being thrown. That is more important anyway.

All of this. If I were Jossi I would be ticked. That mute almost broke his ankle and he stomped the crap out of that landing. I have never really thought it before, but now I am going to agree that the judges get some orders from higher up...sad.

bobby and schlopy were scored a wee bit high.

jossi got screwed. But like last year, he did like one trick and expected a different result each time.

henrik tried to make a statement, but he only had like 1 sick jump (first one), the rest were just mundane and sloppy.

Why does Jacob make it to the finals when him and Jossi are tied? I wanted Jossi to get in so bad, Douglas and the other guy were pissing me off, Schlopy did a switch 14 and they were freaking out because they thought it was a 16, Jossi did switch 14s and they thought it was a 10, the skiings crazy at X games, but the judging is pissing me off so much

They probably are expecting bobby to throw a triple, that might be part of the reason why he was shooed into finals. Jossi's tweaks were so sick.

Henrik did the best trick ever done. Bio 14 blunt easily the hardest trick ever done. JUDGES DONT REALISE THAT THOUGH. they love mute grabs and aerials more than originality and style.

wackkk shitttt

boby fuckin brown they just shat on all of the skiers who were working hard to make it to the finals. i knew when he landed that shitty trick they were going to bump the score up. i would have put henrik through in a heartbeat if i was the judge. bobby did a dub 12 which was poorly landed and got a 40 but henrik's cork 9 to cork three safety was a 32? bullshit
