gonna be honest - Harlaut didn't seem focused during his two runs; this is his bread and butter.

These judges are so confusing.. Can someone explain how Adelisse got a 10 SCORE??? He didn’t fall if I’m not wrong and he still pullled off a triple in the end meanwhile others fall and just ski down the rest of the slope not even jumping but getting better scores..

Woulda like to have seen Taisei Yamamoto's first run score much higher.

Tough break for Jesper Tjäder

Oscars boost off the hip was money.

I think the jumps should have been built up bigger.

slopestyle isnt the same...

it used to be : if you fail at1 feature your one is over

today theres been so many people who flopped a feature and still got a great score

elias' first run got like a 86 and he completely flopped his k-fed and missed the grab on the butterbox

so disappointed in the judges...

Oysteins run was sick, and I really like Oystein and feel he does deserve to medal this comp, but god damn 95 was just incorrect

Also, ABM completely missing the switch 4 and getting an 80

Plain and simple this judging is just off...its incorrect. I would love to see ABM or Oystein medal, but not completing a rail feature should be deemed as an incomplete run and be judged no higher than 65.
