Steezmiester007They dogged bowman again. Total bummer. His last run was sick.


Great run but missed grabs and lacked amplitude. Surprised Wise took 2nd at this point. Very surprised. Thought 4th with the bobble but...

Does doing only 5 hits not matter? You would think a run with 6 would be worth more.

Fuck yeah I usually like slope and big air more than pipe but damn these guys are throwing down. Rolland's average hit was over 18' out, are you fucking kidding me?

Yeah this for sure.


Points in finals like this are basically based on who the judges think should get 1st, 2nd etc.

Agreed! D'Artois' doubles were more tech too!! Rolland's amplitude was nuts.

Damn Gus. I think pressure and fatigue got to him. SICK podium though. Noah should have been up there but I think the right runs podium'd in the right order.

I'll say it again, grabs and amplitude, mainly grabs.

Looking at it that way I see what you mean. LVV sounded pretty puzzled when Mike A was breaking things down. But like I said earlier they have video review this year, and in the mega mo shots you could see the grabs weren't super locked, and the amplitude up top wasn't huge. But then again David had his fist buried in his knees on his last hit, with an overall sketchy run and got 4th...

That was still the best watch of all 5 ski comps this weekend.

Not exactly skiing related, but definitely x games related...it piqued my curiosity to see Atomic's logo on the skis of the x games snapchat filter. I'd be interested to know how many (if any) other companies tried to get that kind of ad space. I mean they could have done just a skier with black bases, but the fact that Atomic was able to get on there made it seem like snapchat had a more unique/intimate investment in x games and thereby freeskiing, which I thought was cool. Just a thought
