Search bared and nothing came up for this years FFL so far. I'm not really sure how this all works because I haven't done it in the past but let's get this going. I did a lot of reading and think i know how it all works but just talk about it and post up leagues in this thread. like for example is this a fun game? If you don't understand or want to join you can go to fantasyfreeride.com Also i started a league as well if you want to join, but you don't have to. Here's the link. http://fantasyfreeride.com/index.php?section=leagues&league_id=42&hash=30b2e7ce4f3cfb8b3a47517073ac5f96 Also trading didn't open yet so it didn't start but you can make an account and they should be starting it up soon. Thanks tall-tee-tristy

Well...after Dew Tour I was 14th in the world, but fell to 59th after Grand Prix...I dropped Wallisch the day before Grand Prix (thank goodness), but stuck with Gus Kenworthy, who has gotten minimal points since his silver in big air at Dew. Anyone else have Gus and considering dropping him?

It's only pipe this time, so probably just the same group that was in pipe last time. Here's the results from Copper:
Men: http://usfreeskiing.com/sites/default/files/documents/events/2012-13/documents/FS%20Men%20SS%20Final%20Results.pdf

Women: http://usfreeskiing.com/sites/default/files/documents/events/2012-13/documents/FS%20Women%20SS%20Final%20Results.pdf

How bad did Russ hurt himself? Is he going to be back and full health for the Olympic Test Event? I want to know if I should drop him to make space for more pipe skiers for Grand Prix Park City...

I dropped Gus and Kai, and I now have $62,000 to spend on more pipe riders. Possibly more if I end up dropping Russ. I'm going to hang on to Henrik, Goepper, and Kaya for slope, and I already have Bowman, Sigourney, Wise, and Krief for pipe.

what the point in keeping henrik? that's one more pipe skier you could get points with then just buy henrik back for the same price you sold him for when this comp's over.

Harvey on the FFL forums:

We're going to try to get a list ourselves and post it in the news. We have a guy there on scene, so we'll do our best to update.

Also be sure to check out the Insights on the right for updates as we get 'em.

Matt.

depending on whether you follow fantasy freeride on twitter or not you might have seen about the sochi test event. due to an error by the team running it THE TEST EVENT WILL NOT COUNT. as trading did not close and so people were able to change their teams during the event. changes have been made to stop this happening again. for the full story http://fantasyfreeride.com/index.php?section=news&news_id=9
personally im quite happy about this as ive not changed my team up for a while.

It's 3:30am on March 5, and trading on Fantasy Freeride still hasn't closed. It was supposed to close on March 4. Woops... What's gonna happen now? Another sad puppy announcement?

Yeah I had Tom Gus and Goepp, did pretty well considering. Now that Lisa isn't competing I should do really well in women's slope, and women's pipe has been the easiest thing to predict

What disciplines are in The Dumont Cup? Is it just men's slopestyle? The Fantasy Freeride site still hasn't put up the disciplines yet. :(

I assume as much. That's how the event has been in the past. No idea who's going to be competing though.
