15 year old was CRAZY and he will probably dominate the next 10 years, but Simon definitely should have had that 2nd place...

Rolland had a flawless but somehow unimpressive run, Wallace's last double flat alone was reason enough to hand him silver.

However, for me, the X-Games are about eye-candy. And Dumont's air and steeze were simply unmatched. His switch 1080 at the end, afterbanging halfway into the rotation, was more fun to watch than any other trick last night.

Exactly. Its pretty hard to keep your composure and to ride away smooth and clean from a huge hit while also maintaining speed across the pipe into the next transition.

Rolland had a good run but still Simons was bigger and had more style I think and Torin's run did not deserve 2nd, super sick run but not enough to beat Simons. In my opinion I think it should have gone Simon, Rolland, Torin.

Dorey would have won if he had landed clean!!!!

Have to say, doing switch in the MIDDLE of the run, back to back, is way, way sicker and complete than doing a single switch hit at the bottom. Simon should have gotten second (but I had all kinds of schadenfreude seeing his reaction so whatever), but no way was his run superior to Rolland's. Amplitude was there, but man, Rolland's was super sick.

You fucking pathetic imbecile, get the feeling he doesn't love skiing? Yeah he just happens to be able to put down a run like that from "training". God get a clue you retard.
