from the article:Tom Wallisch, who threw a fantastic double backflip after sketching out on his second run,  secured the overall AFP Slopestyle win with his fifth place finish.

What I'm more concerned with is that Henrik threw a nose butter dub 10 in competition and got 10th place...

i love how kids think that by doing one amazing trick an athlete deserves an amazing finish. if the rest of his run was sketch it doesnt matter if he did a nose butter dub 10 hes still not going to place well.

He didn't put down a full run in the finals. The nosebutter dub 10 was in his semi-final run.

I did not see many stomped landings in the vids, lots of flailing too.

absolutely agree on this one
couple of years back I would have said that hes missing style (somehow, can't really explain why)
but lately everything he does is so amazingly flawless and just steezy as fuck

no matter if its a handdrag cork 3 or a dub/triple whatever

I'm starting to think they are actually deducting points for Russ' fucking hideous outerwear.
