If that run would have won then skiing is in serious trouble. Still cool to see a new trick.

I'm really bad at estimating distances but I'd guess the bottom one was 90' lip to sweet.

Here's a shitty sequence I put together. I wasn't really prepared for it, and I got slashed by the follow cam guy half way through.

it's been covered man. apparently his rail hits were lame. he should just switch 1710 onto a box and then he'll be set.

Sick edit, but can I ask why he even wears goggles? I don't think I saw them on his eyes even once.

Not progressive. Props that he did it, but there was absolutely no style. Ugly.

Watched both his runs from main deck, his rails weren't as good as they could've been which is why he was scored the way he was even with the s16 and s18. however, his runs were the only ones that made me literally jump out of my seat and cheer. definitely one hell of an event, props to mammoth

A forward 10? You mean a forward flat 10? That's an off axis spin.

while it was sick it was still spin to win. im glad the judges arent rewarding stuff like that.

with that said, that was much cleaner than i expected it to be.

God damn that was so retarded..who cares if no ones done it, there's probably a reason why. Schlopy said after he won xgames last year he could have done the double 1800 but didn't cause he knew it would look fucked. I'm generally thrilled that comp skiing is just aerials now..
