thanks dude. but thats really too bad. 3 runs gives is so much better IMO. gives much more chance for trying difficult tricks, crashes nd stepping up difficult trick combinations.

Pretty sure they have smaller jumps next to the huge ones for the girls to hit or are that just for one of the jumps?

why don't they put the rails at the bottom in any slope course? when the jumps come after, you know everyone is just going to limit themselves to rail tricks that let them keep their speed for the jumps. if they put them at the end then they wouldnt need to worry about speed for jumps.

I would love to see Lisa Zimmerman through a huge double cork 12 for the women. It would be awesome to see such young athlete push the boundaries of women's slopestyle.
