As a few people have mentioned already, there are seceral reasons why the course is not as 'hard' as it could be.
The goal in the slopestyle is to see who can ride the course to the best of thier abilities. It isn't a competition to see who has the balls to hit the most rediculous feature. I myself am not an amazing skier, but i could hit every feature on that course. Does that mean that i'd have a chance to beat Tanner Hall or any other rider? NO!
And why not?
Because, They would be able to ride everything BETTER than me. If you looking to see who has the balls to hit the biggest rails, pop a ski movie into the vcr. If you want to see soneone who can outdo you or me on ANY rail or jump, then the X games should be fun to watch!
