How do you guys feel about Hugo calling back to back cork threes with a hand drag on the knuckle when it was obvious that quinn did not have any practice doing that? Quinn missing it seemed like a lack of practice doing that specific trick on that specific jump, rather than a lack of skill. I thought it was a bit of a low blow, but putting myself in that situation I think I would do the exact same thing.

Then I got to thinking about practice leading up to the event. Do you guys think the boys see what other dudes are working on and make sure they can do the same stuff? And do you think they have some secret tricks that they don't practice leading up to the cup so that the other guys don't know whats coming? Tricks that might not be difficult, but kinda weird and take a couple tries to land so that they can get an easy letter on somebody not expecting it. SLVSH Cup is fukn nutz and the sickest event in skiing

They are professional skiers.
It's a competition.
The goal is to win.

HardAnyone else get upset when Hugo called cork 3 hand drag and Quin missed it, then Hugo goes and calls the same trick with a tail grab? Lame in my opinion. If someone called switch dub 10 and their opponent misses the trick they shouldn't then be able to call switch dub 10 blunt. Where is the line drawn? Could you just keep doing grab variations on a trick you know your opponent can't do? Switch dub 10 japan, switch dub 10 mute, switch dub 10 safety etc.


When Hugo called it the second time, he said ‘because Quan wants to try it again’

Mystery solved.

Am I just high? didn't Quinn get the cork 3 blunt hand drag?
That trick was dope AF. Hugo did it better.
Stacks of bangers in this game.

Yeah exactly slvsh is all about getting new tricks so idk why everyone's saying how that was low of Hugo. I bet Quan was hyped to get that

hootsquadcan we talk about Hugos switch nose press? His toe pieces weren't even on the snow until he reverted


A tournament highlight fo sho. It will be interesting to see how he utilizes this skill in the coming matches.

Are there any "dirty" ski tricks that like only one dude. I'm thinking of Mike Mo's late back foot 360 flip in BatB. He's legit the only dude that can do it.

Would be cool if a skier had like a "finishing move" that nobody else can do. For example can/has anyone else done Henriks nosebutter triple?

Tasai coming out of nowhere like a dark horse. That was a great game, I especially liked the part where Tasai called dub cork, but couldn't specify how many rotations. Wonder if we're gonna see Jesper reff any games

yes. In Jesper and Emils game Jesper said he had practiced one of the tricks he saw Emil do twice before the game but hadn't landed it until the game. I think it was the switch cork 6 onto the flat down box

What do you guys think of Hunters alley oop dub flat 12. Looked kinda like a single to me, just wondering.
Thumbs up = dub
Thumbs down = single

dude not every skier has to be a style skier. I've been a fan of the bunch since day 1 but I love watching taisei throw down crazy spins too. Some skiers are fun to watch for style, others for technicality. I'm pretty sick of the whole new wavers vs new wave hater bullshit that goes on these days, sometimes I feel like I'm the only guy on this site who enjoys watching both crazy tech stuff as well as swervy skiing
