Nothing psyches me up more for pipe skiing than 15 years of snowboard slopestyle.

Really bummed to hear Torin had to pull out of the competition, especially since last years injury kept him from finals.Nasty crash he took a few days ago. Jossi takes his spot.

Lyman got underscored unless I missed a serious bobble. Dude was boosting. Simon is a warrior. WTF J-Bone.

The judges should probably just go straight to the bank with this, they're robbing everyone anyways.

Byron got underscored, Lyman overscored (but deserves to move on), and Blunck got straight robbed. That was a dope prelims overall.

Really bullshit judging tonight, Noah should not have bumped out Byron. How Riddle was able to overcome Byron is also beyond me.

Seriously, Byron was putting down the run of his life, big boosting and really clean!

Fuck the dudes that sit at the top and let time run out. I know they wanna move on and its a good strategy to do that, but just fucking drop in and ride. If you have to do that to move on you probably dont deserve to be in the finals anyways

No but apparently skiers are too stupid to tell the difference anyways...

There was a ton of grab variety in those heats, such a nice break from the trip backside 14 mute fest of past years

If you live in Canada snowboard big air should be on TSN2 right now. But if you want a summary of the commentary:
