This would be great for a Mashed Potatoes episode, a skier raging about how the basketball game went into OT and then the big air doesn't even start until after women's snowboard halfpipe

I'm not pissed unless we're missing live action. We aren't. @freeskierlive would be tweeting if the prelims were happening.

Craig McMorris's thick ass Canadian accent is funny until you have to listen to it for 30 minutes waiting for big air to start

The one commentator is Mark McMorrith'th brother. They actually grew up riding at my home hill to (along with a few others because the prairies are that boring).

I know, it's rough, she pulled out so early. If Kelly had just skipped her last hit she would've won.

And only 5 hits... Still her grabs were on point, just think she should have but in that last hit, she had so much pipe left. Even if it was a straight air it would be way easier to justify

Snowboarding is more popular that skiing. Judges couldn't give a shit if someone dragged their hand(s) on the wall. Skiing on the other hand, they get marked down for anything...

This X-games has some of the shittiest judging I've ever seen. I think the judges hands are being forced for ratings. It's why in slope quals, the American Olympians got scored to high, it's why snowboarding big air went down the way it did. I'm really dissapointed in the way this is going this year.
