He always does. I feel like the judges hate him no matter what he does.

How can you watch a trick 3 times and still miscall it?! If he takes off switch and lands switch it can't be a 16, ffs!

to be fair this time he exchanged the sw right 9 for a rodeo 9 and the sw right dub 10 for a dub 9. But I know what you mean. I think we'll see a right dub 12 on the first jump if he makes finals

Listening to this head judge is so frustrating. Does this guy even ski? Sounds like some random bro reading off a check list on how to score a ski run.

I'm fine with that....as long as they score fairly and subjectively, then you could have mofo Bob Costas up there judging and I wouldn't care

I like that they let us hear what the judges are basing their scores off. I also hop Wally makes the cut, but it's looking bad. He still needs to dodge three out of the following four, right?: Henrik, Sammy, Russ and Woodsy

How cool and tough did you feel while typing that?

Yes Wallisch is one of the top 5 most influential skiers of all time, but he has been off this year and is simply not young or good enough anymore to compete in this area of the sport.

No that isn't fine. I used to love competition skiing, but now this shit is turning into exactly like moguls. In that entire judging criteria the word "style" isn't used one time.

As soon as you use such a rigid grading scale you are going to lose style and creativity in competition skiing.

He has a fucking blown ACL you retard, take that into consideration before you make retarded claims. After he gets surgery I am sure he will be back on the podium next year.

He has a hurt knee you fucking idiot. He's 26 years old and one of, if not the most talented skier competing today. If he was 100% he would be mopping the floor with these guys.
