So glad I don’t follow these guys. But I went and watched the run.
Looks like he comes off early and to the side of the flat rail. Also - he’s doing 12s on first two jumps and a trip 14 on last. His landings aren’t that clean. I imagine people are throwing bigger spins too.
Thats just my two cents. FIS is a lot more strict about that shit, from my understanding
Wanted to add this photo too

Fuck these kids, bunch of crybabies who still haven’t owned up to their mistakes. The judges probably docked them because they all saw that the fagans didnt actually learn their lesson from their past problems. They deleted their instagram post acknowledging they used racial slurs and haven’t done anything in the public eye to make it seem like they learned their lesson and are apologetic for their behavior. My guess is the judges didn’t like the fact that they still haven’t owned up to their mistakes (probs because their weird parents are telling them it’s political bs and a part of cancel culture and not their own wrong doing) What the judges probably saw was a kid who he never owned up to his racist actions who is attempting to make it to the olympics the pinnacle of his sport. Imaging fagan making it to the olympics and everyone going “hey you see the MULTIPLE videos of fagan dropping the n bomb” like how are these kids still that stupid they think they can go to the olympics after using the hard r on social media multiple times, making a half ass apology and then deleting it after 20 mins. Sure doesn’t sound like they’ve learned their lesson. BLM.
I just went through all of those replies and what the fuck is wrong with people. Both the fagans are total asshats who don't take responsibility for their actions. I would be willing to forgive the two of them if they actually seemed to accept responsibility and actually apologize and learn, but until then I hope they don't get any support from brands and Kiernans followers can continue to circle jerk him.
Their followers aren’t core skiers, it’s 14 year old girls who fell for their thirst traps, weirdo 40 year olds who are obsessed with the idea they’re kids and will make mistakes and therefore they deserve a second chance. Then sprinkle in a bunch of people in Colorado who are on steroids and drive WRX’s to the gym everyday. I mean look at one of the comments some dude literally said “Jesper Tjader couldn’t even do that smh” WHO in their right mind is comparing ski abilities with Jesper Tjader?! That should give you an idea of their followers, they are using Jesper Tjader as an example of the top tier skier. Not Henrik, but Jesper fucking Tjader

I mean I personally think Jesper is more talented than the fagans he’s no henrik but atleast he doesn’t fall off rails early like the fagans
The Olympic committee can have these “qualifications” for the Olympics but at the end of the day they can choose who is and who isn’t on the team. I’m pretty sure this is the freeski teams way of telling the Fagans that even if they can qualify for the Olympics they aren’t gonna be let in. IMO better to think you got robbed than have the US freeski coaches straight up say that you can’t go to the Olympics because you’re racist.
Lol Nah fuck that tell them they aren’t welcome and why. Maybe one day they’ll learn.

Yeah they probably need another wakeup call. My guess is that the teams worried that they'll go to the media or start whining and stir up a shitstorm. It would still end with them getting double exposed for being dickheads but it's more work that way.

Yea Jesper isn’t henrik especially on jumps. But you can’t deny that a guy who got robbed of a few xgames medals isn’t a elite skier at or around the top of freestyle skiing like his rail prowess for a comp skier or even skier in general is almost unmatched and he’s no slouch on jumps either. Not great on jumps but definitely not bad.
For sure. I think this is the quiet and easy way of saying “you are not welcome”

1) you’re tagging news channels like any of them would even give a fuck
2) how you gonna tell FIS they’re a disgrace to skiing and then dick ride one of the actual biggest disgraces in skiing?
no one wants either of those lil Fagans representing the US at the olympics.
Lmfaoooooo wtf??? Why would NBC or ABC or USA Today give a fuck about any of this? There’s kids at Gunstock who are 4 years younger than the Fagan Twins and just as, if not more talented. Come on now, they had their chance, they blew it because they’re fucking idiots. Move on and make room for the next privileged white kid and see if they drop the N word on the internet

Ironically the only part of that story they’d care about is the racist past. Mike may be playing chess while the rest of us are playing checkers cause if NBC ran a story on those two’s racism getting them kicked off the US team and their sponsors it would probably just end their careers...
I think everyone deserves a second chance unless they murdered someone. The Fagans should show a bit more humility and really apologize for their actions but they were teenagers, we've all done dumb stuff as teenagers.
I think FIS scoring them with an ulterior motive other than their skiing is a slippery slope.

Is that a fucking joke hahaha. most kids at Gunstock are trash plus this homie is throwing all four dubs on lock. You can hate on the fagans for being dickheads but don't try and say there's a bunch of kid's out their who are better or come close since that's straight bullshit. Obviously anyone who's been around them knows their annoying as shit but there's way to many kids on this site running their mouth 24/7. That apology was really wack but at this point people need to stop whining and bitching about them being racist and just move the fuck on. The field was stacked and everyone dropped hammers so Kiernan shouldn't be surprised.

They're definitely not getting judged different, kiernan is mad he didn't get scored like he thought he should. This happens in every event, I don't really agree with kiernan doing this on his gram tho, bad move IMO.
Im no judge, but I find it difficult to believe 20 runs were better than that
eheathThey're definitely not getting judged different, kiernan is mad he didn't get scored like he thought he should. This happens in every event, I don't really agree with kiernan doing this on his gram tho, bad move IMO.
eheathYeah this is cringe as fuck, not a good move by anyone involved with this.
Eheath with the hammer 🔨 I do agree though it’s very cringe there’s so many talented kids out there nowadays, time for the Fagans to give up and stop whining, they fucked it and they deserve to be shit on
I haven't seen the run and I'm assuming they're overreacting to a legit score, but if they're not then there's something seriously wrong if the judges scored them lower because of they're racist assholes. It's not a ski judge's business to factor in anything other than what they see in the run. Even if they do get first in every qualifier event that in no way means they'll be picked for the Olympic team and they almost certainly wouldn't get picked no matter how well they do simply because they're racist assholes.
BigPurpleSkiSuitIm no judge, but I find it difficult to believe 20 runs were better than that
Lmao...believe it or not there are plenty of skiers who could put down an equivalent or better run. You probably just haven't heard of them. I mean...like... that walker shredz kid is already doing switch dubs and 12s and he's what...12-13 years old? There are plenty of uber-talented people, the Fagans are just loudmouths with a tik tok page that seems to give them a bloated sense of importance and fame when there are plenty of others who just fly under the radar.
Also, the posting people's responses is mega cringe. How many of those are just him dm'ing from his own account? Lmao
Thread should be titled " Entitled douchebag skier, who lost sponsorships for being a jackass, is still entitled and thinks the world is pitted against him. Spends a whole day whining on insta"
Jesper and others-Get robbed in events, say nothing, move on and compete harder next year
Fagans-Lose an event, whine on Instagram, claim its a conspiracy, try to get their tik tok hogs riled up and scream "mooooommmmy"

Thatd be pretty shitty. I'm thibking there run probably just wasn't that clean. Even then sonetimes you dont get the score you think you deserve.
I don't agree with you at all that it would be ok to judge people poorly just because you don't like them. Don't sponsit them, don't invite them to certain events but this is a ski comp snd if you cant judge it for the skiing you've got nothing.
I get that people don't like them. But it's a slippery slope if you start playing favorites on that scale.
People are talking about how bad these kids are for the sport, but are encouraging giving somebody a bad score unrelated to their skiing because you don't like them. That's messed up honestly. Be bigger than that.
Fully understand your logic and I agree you don’t want it to get to a point where a judge is misscoring a rider because him and his dad don’t get along or some shit. Im not 100% sure how this comp circuit works but if the point is to score well and make the Olympic team, that’s much different than a rail jam or even FWT. I think making a national team is about more than just your trick bag.
That being said, I wasn’t advocating them getting scored lowly due to off-the-hill actions. I really think, if the underlying message is they aren’t welcome, the US ski team should just tell them that. Maybe they have and the message wasn’t received properly, who knows...

No way in hell they’ll ever get on the Olympic team so idk why he’s even trying. looks like kiernan of being a brat about it and expects that he’s treated normally after all that shit, Props to devan tho, looks like he’s changed his ways and even tho he still posts some cringe he has a plan and is moving forward with his life, Not dwelling in the past
