No Kenworthy on the team roster 12/13. Any info into whether he is signing with someone else or if he is on another team?

Armadas "team" is confusing and retarded. They don't show or tell anything or tell anything about the people they support.




...maybe he should get into reggae

Yup. Gus won. He killed it, did pretty much everything you could think of on setup (gap to down, and down flat down). Will Wesson got 2nd. He skied super well in quals, but didn't ski that well in finals. LJ was competing too, but didn't seem to be up to his usual standard. It was raining super hard, so conditions weren't ideal..

Gus won the comp, Will Wesson got Best Trick and me and all the spectators got washed out in the rain.
But he was on Atomics. Which I think suits him more, never really saw him as much of an Armada skier.

gonna take a complete guess and say his contract expired and Atomic put more money behind their sponsorship offer since Kenworthy is at the level and winning enough comps to start to make some good coin.

I wouldn't be surprised if he got the afp all around award again. he got that and big air last year, maybe he'll give tom a run for his money this year in slopestyle.
