Here's a link to watch all the action live from Zurich this weekend. Freeski qualifications tomorrow, with semi-finals and finals on Sunday.  Just for the fun of it, I'm guessing Henshaw will win. I can't decide about the rest, as everyone is so talented. I'm looking forward to seeing Sammy C, as this is his first contest since blowing out his knee last Jan. It's going to be crazy.

Actually you see a bit of everything at Freestyle ch. I think there will be a lot of stylish tricks. You got Henrik, Casabon, Wallisch, Sammy, Wester.....on and on. There is going to be a lot of variety I think.

Also Andreas dub 10 mute to octo was gnarly! Keep this live stream threads coming MaryO, this was great time spent!

And for those complaining that the City Big Airs are only dub 10's, you are wrong!
They did one round of style and one of tech, then one they could choose to better their score in one of them.. a lot of different tricks and grabs went down! Even one that I've never seen! epic!

As mentioned above, Phils dub was really sweet... I think Jossi should've made the top 8 though...his sw dub 10 was sooo full of style.

My prediction:

Do future spins. Get paid. the equation is quite simple really. Especially in a big air comp.

Thanks Tom Wallisch for your sage knowledge.

Did anyone see Gus stomp the hell out of the switch dub 9 in that crossover thing?

I'm not the biggest fan of Gus's style but holy. that was stomped.
