Keeps getting harder and harder to make it in the ski game it seems. All three were BANGER edits and probably would have been finalists a couple years ago. Super stoked to see a midwesterner get some credit as well.

Vegard's was probably my favorite, but Paul is a midwesterner and his was nice too.

The quality of terrain park skiing is insane!

Shame its all terrain park these days though, rules out a lot of good candidates

I'm guessing there's going to be some upset spin-to-win and super-fed lovers when the finalists are being announced. This was, with exceptions, really boring to watch.

Well for sure when everything is spinned to the left it can get boring, but when you've got someone like Jordan Innes who's good at spinning but spins both ways and makes it look so easy, you got to appreciate his skiing. Doing tricks your natural way is hard to a certain extent.

Don't get me wrong, Seb Eaves and Paul Marik have some solid entries with some really good urban, I would've just like to see some right side stuff from Seb and more unnatural tricks from Paul, since they both have real solid rail games

I didn't enjoy every one of these but all of them are damn good. It's going to be virtually impossible to distinguish these from the finalists, just like last year.

Jordan Innes has impeccable style for someone spinning that fast and plenty of seb eave's shots wouldn't have looked out of place in a pro movie.

Yes it's hard, and of course I can appreciate the skill, but I still think it's really boring to watch. Superunknown ain't a slopestyle competition, it's about being in a movie. And when I watch a Level 1 movie I don't wanna have to watch it with the mindset of a olympic judge.
