I hope that girl lands her dub cork. If 2 fives and 2 sevens is a 94, then I think a dub should be at least 110.

Aha holy yoga culture. Are some of these ladies seriously meditating in the trees pre-run? Whatever works I guess.

Anyone else a little disappointed by the amplitude in the mens pipe? Don't get me wrong, I obviously can't do better and it isn't easy, but I remember a few years back when multiple people would go 20+ ft out, didn't really see that last night.

Maybe it's just me, but I was a little disappointed that there was no one boosting.

I think the pipe itself gets larger from year to year, so what doesn't seem like bigger amplitude actually is.

Dumont would boost 20+ feet on a 540, whereas now people are going 18-20 feet throwing doubles 3 different ways. Not too disappointing if you ask me.

Really? Roland was going huge last night on his runs. I thought they were all going pretty damn big. I think a few others were doing a few 20+ ft pipe hits as well.

Russ pulled out of Ski Big Air tonight. I'm guessing Jesper Tjader is 2nd alternate for big air? (ABM took Bobby's spot).
Jesper jumping game is on point!

I'm afraid we will miss 1st heat of Ski Big Air. There's no way SNB superpipe finals is done before 7.30 MST.

Great!
2012 wasn't the case, I remember clearly missing first hit because of superposition of events.

In other news, Luca Tribondeau is the alternate for Russ. Lucas has got multiple triples.

No, they didn't. I know this because I watched every snowboard run and every pipe run. I'm sure we'll see the entire Big Air session for skis too :)

Im from the Uk and its a nightmare trying to follow start times. Eventhough i clinically follow the schedule I always get absolutely sausaged by an hour of snowmobile freestyle or womens snowboarding. Yes, I'm drunk.
