C'mon doug, it's progressing the sport. Don't say it's not a good tric,, because you know damn well it's something no one else does, and definitly crazy.

he's creaming himself over the same switch 10s everytime, and when wilson drops something brand new, he doesn't get it. Doug is a good guy and knows his shit, but I gotta disagree with him here big time.

hucked, ya, it could've been, but it's still something progressive. I don't care if it wins, but I just thought it was something that was deserving of a shout out.

As for the aerials comment from Doug, I can't say i disagree completly, but as long as it's not a real aerials manuver, it's chill with me.

I wanna see a risky flip.

It sucks not being able to see this.

Either way, if it has style cool, if not something new I guess.

The line between a stylie double cork and aerials is very fine.

I'm not a Wilson fan but he pulls it off well.

Give Wilson props? How about giving Doug props for having the balls to say what most people were already thinking. This isn't a fucking stunt show, it's SKIING.







Bahahaha... or, you could call it the 'elitist snob' cult. Anyways, my family already owns a country club, so no thanks.

Let us just give props for Doug being in the condo giving us play by play. He could be slopeside, and we would all be sitting here with our thumbs up our ass waiting for the results until later. You guys need to learn some fucking respect.

If a switch 10 and a double invert like the wilson flip were thrown with the same degree of style, stomped, and had a grab, I'd score the double higher any day of the week. It takes courage, skill and a progressive vision to throw a trick like that in a comp, and I think people will come around to that eventually, unless you want to see a switch 10 win every comp from now until freeskiing dies.

Besides, labeling what Wilson does as a 'double' in comparison to spinning tricks is slightly misleading, considering that a 720 is technically a 'double 360', a 1080 is a 'triple,' and so on. The Wilson flip is sick, and I can't wait until the day when I can watch a big air comp where more than one rider does something different.

honestly you can't really progress horazontal spinning much more...why not go for the verticle axis spinning? a straight over double would be about as sick as a straight ass 720...think about how sick spins look right now, just try to immagine some crazy ass flipping stuff that could go down.
