There should be less focus on control and the best crash award that gives the same points a third place. also, there should be the best trick and biggest air, for awards that give points.

Then junior IFSA would be core

Hi my name is Jeffery Higgenbottoms from IFSA and this could dangerous because it encourages kids to purposely bust their ass on the course and then we would be getting lawsuits in the mail.

No one cares about a bullshit series run by an international organized body that caters to spoiled brats.

Are they not legal?
Awarding best trick and biggest air for points would help. And not being so critical on control, especially when creativity is high.
Though whoever said incentivizing crashes might create lawsuits is unfortunately accurate.

No, they will get you both a dq and they will revoke your membership, in europe they are allowed though. I agree, the control score is the bane on my existence.

Yeah it turns into a strategy thing where people dont do cool shit they do lines that are like easy but show control so like fucking lil timmy will do a dub 12 but have a hand tap and come in 90th where as lil johnny with get a little safety grab and come in first because he turns well

Yeah I think that idea of making IFSA cool and involved in the ski community is just outright impossible
