The course is a bit on the small side, but it should still be a pretty sick contest. So many people entered in it.

Wow crazy dumb crash and my knee hurts. Tweaked pretty good. Bummer

Hopefully nothing too serious that'll put him out of X-games or fuck with his filming.

He got 6th in the 1st heat, which I'm guessing means he didn't make finals...bummer. He got a 77.6 his first run and a 31.0 on his second.

Eheath, he was happy with his first run especially considering this is his first comp back and first time hitting big jumps in a solid year, second run he fell and broke a ski I guess but that's ok. Overall he's happy with it. 6th in his heat, as they said above.

Some shot's from today http://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set=a.10151239880508785.458089.22407753784&type=1

We're stoked for Sammy! Kai's first run was nuts and Willie killed it today. Really gnarly to narrow down a field of 120 skiers to a 12 man final.
