That would have been the sickest run ever. I've never seen people boost higher than on this pipe. The girls were basically twice as high as usual.

It's however eurosport sent. It's great. One of the girls did an iron cross in her run.

I wish Marg hadn't run out of pipe. It would have been so sick if he could have landed on that foot of tranny he had left.

Who cares. This is the sickest pipe comp of all time. Standings are pretty much irreverent after that first run.

Yeah. It's kind of sad especially since we just watched the best round ever. I'm very team anais btw. I love her like a 13 year old girl loves bieber.

That wasn't good for her. She usually goes for broke on her second run. Not sure what happened.

"The nerves got to rolland" lol. More like, there is a good chance that this guy is skiing with a broken back/leg/lost his acl on the last run so he's probably going to take a little bit off of this one.

Stupidest fucking pipe ever. Its way to short. Everybody is missing their last hit.

Nobodys going balls to the wall, its the pipe.

Understandable.

Slope Finals are saturday. I think around 8am. I'll try to find a stream. It seems like eurosport has this FIS thing locked up.
