Who cares about the weather. It is what it is. Anyone can win a rail jam when it's sunny and 30 out. East coast is hardcore. Time to separate the men from the boys...

Anyone who signs up for a rail jam on the east coast that's afraid of a little rain doesn't deserve the cash. This is the east coast, anyone who grew up skiing here can ski in any type of weather and not care about it cause that's what we do in New England.

speaking the truth!

*raining* fuck it just bring a trash bag and bam you can ski without getting wet
*dumping hard* fuck it go ski anyway cause thats the only time you'll get a lil bit of powder
*icy as fuck* fuck it that just mean easier shuffles

Notice the edit is from 2 seasons ago. Kid has been doing big things already this year. If he doesn't win I guarantee a podium spot at the very least

Woah there's some negativity going on in this thread. I've decided to forfeit the contest in hopes that no one says anything bad about the difficulty or creativity of the tricks that I'm not going to do. #teamJohn

Id say there is about a 10% chance of LJ backflipping to rail. and 100% chance of victory.

he's not going to win it though, I don't think people really know who he's up against. I'm rooting for Johnny O'Connor to repeat.

It is a flat down but I am pretty sure it is angled like a dogleg left, which can make it interesting!

Well that's reassuring. As long as eheath dismisses any likelihood of partisanship we can all breath an impartial sigh of relief.

Yeah because you definitely know all the parties involved and what I have to say doesn't mean anything.

It will be a fair contest.
