Eh, he was a pioneer and all but he's been out of the game too long. When was the last time he even skied at all?

I think the guy who judged pretty much every major competition for the past, what, 5 or 6 years knows what it takes to win the comp...he may not be able to do that tricks, but that's not his job, his job is to help the athletes stay on track, train properly, and put together a winning run...which Raps is MORE than qualified to do (especially given his past, he knows what not to do as well...)

Wow. I feel like a fool now. I didn't know that he was still involved in the industry at all. For some reason, I thought be had completely left skiing
