BmerrillMaking him try a trick that he doesn’t want to do is part of the game, and what makes Slvsh so great. He should be gracious about it, not pissed because he doesn’t want to loose. It wasn’t ‘fucking around.’ Careful who you tell to grow up, some of us are.


lol you're acting like such a child, clearly never been in a competitive environment before with money on the line. He was just getting hype and fucking around, why should he be gracious? that makes literally no sense

the reffing on that last game was pretty weak tbh. he didn't really seem completely sure when he made some of those calls. also i thought trivia crack rules are only to be applied once?

The Trivia Crack rule seems to be dependent on the ref, some games it's only used when the person who initially lost rock-paper-scissors gets to V, and sometimes its whenever you get to 3 letters, even if the other person already has a letter or it isn't their first set. I think the rule needs to be more defined because it can really influence the game.

haha trivia crack doesn't just "happen when the ref wants too"

Trina crack is only applied if the set doesn't change naturally. So, if the person who wins the set gives three letters. Trivia crack. And to make it fair to both players, if the second athlete then gives three letters back without loosing the set. Trivia crack. Then its open battle. The point it to give both athletes a fair chance to play the game. But it doesn't stop a skunk situation if the set changes naturally. For example, in Emil vs. Henrik. Emil set his first trick and failed to land it, the set changed 'naturally'. There has never been a single situation where this is different. Its a solid rule and we always make sure they stick to it.

I guess I had never thought of it that way, I had always thought of it as a way give the person who lost rock-paper-scissors a way to even the odds. Thanks for clarifying it for me

I think Hunter Hess was a SLAPP qualifier?? Which makes him look even more impressive taking Berg and Swadburg, who both are dope skiers. Seriously though, mad props to him, he’s really making a name for himself and it’ll be interesting to see if this cup leads to opened opportunities for him in the future!

It still amazes me how people still don't seem to understand the Trivia Crack rule. Every time it happens it's like a broken record. 'Wait why did trivia crack apply? Shouldn't it be blah blahs set?'

It's not fucking rocket science.

That whole game was so fire. Only drawback is that this Aleksi guy seems to think that saying something like "johan missed the grab - letter to him" should instead require a thirty minute analysis spoken at the pace of a sloth.

Look, I know this guy. I can personally testify that this guy has been in many competitive environments ON SKIS and is an insane skier. He has been there, but I think he was trying to highlight a point. The pitchfork army has been slamming him. I get where you're coming from, but maybe people are jumping on it a little too hard. All said, respect man. We're all here because we love skiing.

He reminds me of when A Hall popped on the scene. Everyone was just like "WHAT WHO IS THIS GUY". So stoked to see his future stuff and stoked to see him repping Bachelor.

that jock attitude shit from ahall was pretty wack.

johan getting 3 new tricks in a row at the end of his game with hunter was fucking rad. thats the way to handle yourself. get stoked when you stomp something sick, and get even more stoked when your opponent does.

In my opinion ref should have given a letter to Harlaut on the 9 Blunt, just to make the game more tight even though he said he was going to be more defensive.

@ 8:55, when Simone calls the tokyo drift to "switch" he most definitely does not say switch.

After watching it a few times idk how that could not be interpreted as saying forward, unless there's some lingo I'm not up to date on.

Calls were a little loose in favor of Henrik so this doesn't bother me much. But you're definitely right.

Another sick game. Simone is a sender and hung in really really well. Thought there was a chance he would start making greedy calls and put henrik in a pickle. Good ass game and fun to watch.

After rewatching it I think he says "to 4".

He originally says how it's a back 360 to tokyo drift backslide, so kinda makes sense why he would finish with "to 4" (continuing from 3). Definitely a little confusing, but also pretty wild that Henrik pulled it off.

He said "go to four", I also heard forward the first time, but he says to bring it around to blind 4.
Lets be real here, how are you gonna give Henrik a letter if he knows what trick he is going to do? Insane how good that dude is.

I was okay with that call, the "5050 one foot to slide front 2 out" on the flat down rail, henrik did like a backslide while Simone called a one foot 50, aka nugget, whatever you wanna call it, and he did that, not a backslide.

In the end, these are tiny things and I would say they didn't effect the result at all, maybe henrik deserved another letter or two but he would've won anyways.

I'm going to be be honest, I was wanting Henrik to win since I want to see an epic all out battle between him and A Hall, but judging seemed a bit biased. I get that the ref was calling the game loose, which is fine, but if he was really going to give that 9 to Henrik(which probably wouldn't have passed in many other games) then he should have given Simon the revenge on the next 6 on 2 off which was also shuffled. Then there was the backslide that was just a tap too.

Also funny how nobody even mentioned that Henrik called difficult variation of a dub 10 on the second hit, but then lost their minds over Simon and Alex hall calling dubs in earlier games.
