Can confirm I was there as well. It was quite funny, that and the rowdy guy next to the camera man who kept making commie jokes and wanting world peace.

200 signs at Olympic Slopestyle calling for a 180 would be great.

This. Imagine watching on TV and all you can see from the crowd is signs saying "Do a 180"

180 = straight air in half pipe... So I suppose you're right. It will be ironic.

going to other types of big ski events is epic, never thought of bringing signs...

has anyone imagined someone actually doing a 180 on an aerials quad kicker? i would train this on a water ramp if i had ever got the chance

Sign maker reporting in. It was I.B., JLOCKS and myself. We also showed up at the Olympic Trials for ski jumping.

No. Not funny at a slopestyle comp. The whole point is that for all the hoopla, the athletes can't do a 180. They aren't on twins. That's the whole point of the sign!

And anything referencing B.A.D. in a public forum, especially on national TV, is beyond awesome.

After much discussion, we have come to the conclusion that we would be able to accept a trip to Sochi, and could make an amazing NSTV series regarding it.
