No doubt Wallisch had mostly more technical tricks, but his execution wasn't perfect, Bobby's was.


A perfect run should always beat a flawed run, even if the flawed run has more spinning.

there is no fucking reason to put that in the title of the thread dude. Not everyone gets to see it and you just ruined it. But hey you got a multi page thread going so good for you.

this. i was in a comp one time and one of my friends hit the rails but slipped off early on them and did a decent butter three to backflip when i slid the rails perfect and landed with uber wallisch steaze and threw a 3 and and mute 3 landed really good and i finished 2 spots ahead of him.

it's subjective, but I just don't see Bobby's run as a flowwy run, i've seen people that have been skiing for two years and look better skiing switch. It's all opinion

i must say, since normal x-games, Bobby has seriously stepped up his rail game. Kinda think he deserved to win something but i still like twall more.

I thought Bobby earned the W. If Wallisch had landed the sw right dub 10 like he usually does, I give it to him, but unfortunately, a bobble like that—slight as it actually was—is really visually noticeable. It's all subjective. As a fan of skiing, and as someone who has at least a grip on difficulty of tricks, I preferred Wallisch's run, but I can definitely see a judge rewarding Bobby for his perfection in execution.

What the fuck how did Wallisch not take the win there, fair play to Bobby but imo that very slight bobble on the landing from Tom wasn't enough to take the win away from him.

The top rail section of that course was stupid. The cannon rail looked like something out of a kiddie park. Ridiculous.

As for riding, didn't like Tom's first 630 spinning-top thing. Did like Andreas's 5050 on, bit different, but overall I think I agree with where everyone ended up among the top 3 (everyone was scored a little high). Can't speak to Woods or Bellemare as ESPN inexplicably only puts up vid of the podium runs.

After watching top 3 runs, I'd put Wallisch on top and then either bobby or andreas, could go either way. Wallisch's rail game was untouchable.

I dont think there should be a huge amount of complaints because al top 3 runs were really sick in their own way, but if had been judging i think i would have had to go for Wallisch. His rails were insane, and as always going deep/stomping landings regardless of his very slight shaun white impression.

Haha I was just about to make this exact same post. Glad I scrolled down a bit. That 630 on the first feature that Wallisch hit was straight up pencil steeze. No style at all.

thanks dawg

I wasn't trying to claim, just saying that wallisch's rail game is pro, and there's thousands of other kids out there that could do what bobby did in that run. Again, not hating on bobby's run, I just think that wallisch's rails were enough to put him ahead of bobby.

Andreas' run was also super flowy!

Tom Wallisch should have won, too bad for lifting his foot, but hey, try to do that rail run. Also his jumps were great (except the lifted foot).

Questionable if Bobby Brown was better then Andreas. Bobby Brown has amazing jumps (don't understand whats wrong with the style, technical as fuck) but his rails were very bad. And Andreas had a good overall run, good rails (except the butter didn't go well) and good kickers.

This is my opinion. I hope to see some more runs in this thread, I want to see Anti Ollila, Bellemare and Woodsy.

Does anyone else think it was the first small cannon that cost Tom the win? It looked liked he was going to spin something bigger then hesitated. Also I think that feature was pretty lame for x games standards.

the size of the last jump is a joke. looked like a jump from a medium sized park at multiple resorts in America. Tom ripped the euro x course a new one last year with his commentary

Honestly, I didn't like toms run all that much. Sorry. Bobby's run was flawless. His pole jam trick was better and his jumps were unbelievable. I thought the 6's looked a little goofy, to be honest. Andreas is nuts. Just too much

Im assuming he meant the other guy. LVV is the shit, even at the end of Shaun Whites last run he did the interview and was more entertaining then the event itself hahaha. And he is the greatest, period.

such a good comp all around. Bobby's killed all 3 runs and for once I was stoked on his comp runs.

Bellemare kinda got screwed by dropping 2nd. His first run was def. podium worthy after all was said and done.

in other euro x news, shaun white won with a 98 on his run, so louis vito didnt have a chance of winning. I wish shaun wasnt so good. even the crowd wasnt happy that he won

My girlfriend asked me if I wanted to watch euro X on tv while I was making her breakfast.

My response "You want to watch euro X slopstyle?! You don't even like skiing"
Her response "Yeah I know but you love skiing so I'll just get over it"
:D best girlfriend ever.

i like the way this turned out- bobby and wallisch both with sick rail tricks (japan and 630s, respectively)... I like the 6 offs beter but he didn't land the second jump very clean so it's fair enough he won silver. nothing really stood out in the bronze run just super solid... nice switch ups

I think Andreas has been in the top 8 in the last 7-8 years in x-slope - His wife is expecting in April all the best to him. Saw an interview with him just a moment ago on Friflyt.no , he is all ways top stoked.

Exactly this. As soon as I saw that slight bobble in Tom's run, I knew Bobby had the W. today, with this level of competition, you have to be absolutely flawless. Bobby's run was flawless in my opinion, and that's coming from Tom's biggest (and oldest) fan.

Congratulattions Bobby, Tom and the always smiling Andreas Hatveit:)

If one competitor is hitting the box option and the other is hitting the rail, the skier hitting the rails should get a higher score...

I think if tom didn't lift up his foot on that sw dub 10 he wouldve won but that obviously really hurt him, he probably wouldve got like a 98 if he didnt. oh well.

I dont think this site understands the idea of being consistant with opinions. All we have ever wanted was cool uniqueness and that is exactly what Bobby's run had. Tom honestly just hucked spins out of rails.. and bobbled old boring jump tricks, we have seen that shit for years in edits. When I watch an edit online nowadays Im stoked when people do new grabs on jump tricks and find cool ways to hit boring rails. Bobby did exactly that. Bobby had a unique run.

If she was the real deal she would have been making you breakfast and preparing to give you a hummer while you ate bacon and watched Euro X. Kick that beater ass bitch to the curb for not knowing her role.

In other news....Finish order was correct. Get over it.

Tom's 6 out made me say "oh shit" out loud.

Dope runs from all three. I'm content with the podium order.

I'm sick of hearing about Bobby Brown's style. You sound ridiculous when you say that; his style is fine. That's why he's winning competitions.

In other news, did anyone see Kaya Turski's disaster SW 4 on 2 out on the flat down box? I don't think I've ever seen a female do that good of a trick on a rail/box before.
