it's not just mt. bachelor, do you ever watch jon olson's in comps, the snowboarding olympics, etc.? judging is a bitch, favoirites are picked from time to time, and that's why the majority of my time is spent in the backcountry and out of the silly same shit, day to day park. ya, your gonna say, 'tha's cuz you got a sled.' this is my first year with a sled...powder jumps....diversify yo bonds and don't let one guy judge your career at a mt. bachelor contest. oh ya, did tommy not deserve to win the comp? i heard his run and it sounded pretty sick?

cause the judges are snowboarders and cant appreciate right and left side spins integrated into your runs and such

Tommy had a super sick run and deserved to win for sure. The results were really screwed up from him down. I got third to last with a cork 5, huge cork 9, and right side 7 (same run as 2nd place guy except a little better on the rails). People who crashed and who did only straight airs beat me.
Hobbitskier got really screwed in the pipe comp on sunday...

do balerz like pollard, sage, etc. even do comps. what's the point if they bring such frustration.

Tommy slayed that contest and there wasn't any ice skater spins in his bag of tricks. you just have to own the show!

Pollard & Sage both used to do a lot of comps. it is part of the game. but when you are blowing up and have the option to go to Europe, South America, etc.. vs. say going to Tahoe for the Gravity games. It's a no brainer, but to get there you have to get the attention of the powers that be and comps are the quickest way to do it.

I came close to winning that competion...only the judges didnt see my right side grind to left side grind...they also marked my down for landing on the deck on my jump...and it didnt really help that I was at Apple Mountain.
