At first I thought he was alright, but after watching how he closed out his run with all his reverts and then rapping to the camera I lost all respect.

Duncan is... I wouldn't put this kid in that boat yet. Nothing really different about a single trick he did.

I thought it was really sick too. If he was to go a bit bigger it would have been better. But that first 9 was sooo clean

How about Turpin and Favre doing the same shit like 6 years ago?

Not to bag on Duncan, as he knows where it's at, but this kid is definitely not the end all, be all dude of pipe skiing and his run was nothing special. His run was less than mediocre almost by 2006 standards, when it comes to style and technicality. Fucking Philou was doing back to back 9s already in 2002...

I didn't think that was all that stylish... It was a good pipe run with a solid blunt in the first hit and massive flat 5 at the end.

pshh who cares what he skis like HE HAS BAGGIE CLOTHES! instant style... on an honest note, the skiing was ok, but the only difference I saw from the next skier was the size of his jacket and pants.

That may have been the worst run I have seen in Halfpipe competition for the past 4 years.

All I think when I hear about him is that he's a high school drop out who loves extreme sports like skiing, ping pong, and kayaking.

But that run was sick. I don't get the hate. I'd much rather enjoy flowy lines than count spins when watching pipe runs. Sure he acts like a retard at the bottom, but what skier doesn't?

It was pretty sick. Personally I thought Duncan was just a bit smoother and went bigger.

Ok maybe that played into it, but lets be honest, he looks like a fucking retard. Now thats not to say any other sponsored/pro rider doesnt look like an idiot, but something about the way he did it bugged me.

He wore big clothes =/= steezy. Duncans is way better.

It was aight. He looked like he was messing around rather than in a comp. But I think he's capable of being what Henrik is to slopestyle: style, creativity, AND tech tricks. He just has to choose to do that.

The only way Duncan can win is if he got a leather jacket, got skinny jeans, and a ginger wigg.

how does he look like a "retard" you have no appreciation for the finer aspects of style and elegance of pipe skiing to say anything negative about his run...he landed everything in perfect tranny verse the robots that do as many doubles in a run as they can and land at the bottom of the tranny looking like there about to fall...if you don't have anything nice to say then shut the fuck up.

A agree with you that his run was steezy as fuck. It's just little things that looked forced. Like the horizontal pole thing he did before dropping in, the show offy braking at the end to switch. And then of course the douchebaggery at the bottom. But his actual run inbetween all that was really sick

I haven't seen a freeskiier dressed like that since the 90's. . . Having style with normal clothes just means your that much better. Bagginess hides flaws. (not hating i wear baggy clothes, just pointing it out.)

That flat five he landed at the bottom and looked like he might fall.

Duncan's run is better, definitely more "creative", and he doesn't look like a douche at the end.
