I will have pipe up soon. Didn't catch much slope thanks to a power outage that occurred here in lovely SLC while my TVR was recording the comp.

Am i the only one who thinks that PK switch double corks arent all that? his regular ones go much more inverted and look sicker. you can understand why someone who doesnt know anything about skiing would think it was just a big spin.

i totally see what youre talking about. i mean, i knew it was a double cork and i had to look real hard to see the corks. theyre so shallow it almost looks like a sketchy huck spin. pks trick is sick no doubt, but i dont think many people would realize that.

No. I

 honestly beleive PK could have stomped the piss out of the 2 best tricks ever landed in a comp, and simon could have totally bitched out and thrown 2 tricks that have been around for years, one for several decades in fact, and simon would still have won. Shit, wait, that's exactly what happened and dumont won 85%-15%. Oh well, maybe next year eh?

At this rate next year the big air will be decided based on the correlation between a rider's height and the relevance of their sponsors to freeskiing. Lowest score wins. Anyone care to venture a prediction?
