Definitely some different vibes from this game, but the corks on and off the rails made it a banger. Calls were debatable for sure, but that didn't ruin it for me. Either of those guys could probably have gone on to take it.

Sidenote: Bellemare's 4s on were clean as a whistle and that sw cork 6 b2 out was rowdy. Sucks he's out so early but quinn is a boss so it's all good

darticus_primequinn let go of his safety on that last trick

Not the biggest picture, but yeah bs call there. If you mash the pause button he goes from near his toe binding, loses it, grabs higher.

I was digging the hype vibes at first but at some point it sort of got out of hand. Still liked the game though ... those corks on and off rails were insane. Judging was debatable but this ain't a FIS comp so suck it up and enjoy.

K-Dot.Y'all are blind asf, Quinn got the grab and secured the W legitimately


I'll amend this statement.

Upon rewatching it a couple times in .25 speed, I still don't think that there is enough evidence that he didn't grab it to call it back. The ski goes completely invisible in some frames making it tough to judge but his body motion and lack of arm movement makes it appear as though he did keep it secured the whole way through.
On top of that, B Mack called it after seeing it in person which, albeit could have been wrong, but likely is a much clearer evaluation compared to pixels on a gopro shot.

I can see an argument for calling it either way.

I was very tempted to mute the game and just watch. It's almost like he knew that we knew that he was buzzing and he blew it way out of proportion and it was obnoxious

Everyone is nuts, bmack was a great ref. If that was magnus, or woodsy, or wabs who are all better known, everyone would be praising the ref entertainment.

Iffy judging wasnt his fault either, quinn was riding real loose, those were tough calls. In fine with how it shook out though

I'm 90% sure it is caused by the lack of music. Makes the vibe totally different when watching. Hopefully, it was just something they wanted to try out. And props to bmack for reffing a tricky game.

BrehenyIs it just me or was there a bit of a weird vibe to that game?

It got a bit awkward when the filmer (Charlie I think) told B Mack 'you can't do that if he slid the whole rail, he either came off early or he didn't'.


It was weird because he was dragging his tails on the ground but his tips got to the end of the rail

Looking in 1080p at 0.25 speed he clearly lets go when he hits the rail.

And I don't think we can say that him seeing it in person is better cause b mack looked damn drunk

Last call was right fishy, honestly. Bmack gave it the green light as soon as quinn landed and from a viewers point that deserved a solid review, especially since it was the last trick and the grab was very hard to see. From what i've saw in the hundreds of slvsh games released they don't give it the green light right away for tricks that are on the bubble like that. It just seems kinda played.

He's being real lol, bmack was saying he kinda did the trick but he kinda didn't, and charlie or whatever was basically telling him to pick one. What else do you expect from a slvsh game haha.

I'm putting my life in danger posting this, but here is the truth behind the reffing in the latest game:

Have you ever wondered why SLVSH has a V and not a U? It's not because slush.com was already taken, as they'd have you believe. The truth is that the V is really an upside down pyramid representing their ties to the Illuminati. Bellemare, however, is an undercover FBI agent trying to infiltrate their ranks. They didn't want to make it obvious that they know Bellemare is undercover so the easiest way to get rid of him was to have him lose in a SLVSH cup where contestants duel to the DEATH.

Don't believe me?

-Illuminati owns the Olympics.
-Joss won gold at Olympics.
-Bellemare was thrown out of Olympics due to judging fuckery.
-Why is SLVSH cup being held in a small lawless country where murder is legal?
-Why was Bellemare wearing glasses as a disguise?

It's all connected. Wake up sheeple.

i feel like the first matchup was a super messy edit... all over the place with random clips
im all about showing behind the scenes sorta stuff but if it's a matchup it might be better to show more skiing

maybe the second game hasn't been posted bc they're re-editing it idk

when the whole thread is filled with discussions about the ref (not so much the reffing itself), you know you overdid it on the hype/filler shots
i agree that the vibe felt kinda off.

Besides all the criticism, I 100% support B-Macks decission on Quan's SWR2. I'seen soccer/football/whateverSport refs fuck up way worse than that and those are well payed professionals. Point is ... reffing is fucking hard. Some people here need to take a chill pill.

slvsh always puts on such a good show. I think this was the only game I truly didn't like. Bmack was so full of himself, it was supposed to be between the riders but he had insert all sorts of ridiculous shit into the game. totally killed the vibe and made heinous calls.
which leads to another reason I love slvsh. It shows so much more than the carefully crafted online images skiers make for themselves. If every bunch edit had these half cooked idiots rambling their weird mantra people would be wayyy less stoked. bmack just became less of a posterboy and insta clip pro
