Subject: HEY BIG AIR, NO EXCUSES!
These boarders are absolutely sending it tonight. If skiing big air does not go off, I think we should all be pretty disappointed. We need another year of pushing the envelope like in 09/10 with TJ, Jossi, and Bobby throwing down new tricks. Let's go guys.

Hope helgason is alright. He looked like he got pretty fucked up overrotating that trip. Took it straight to his head.
Agreed, and hopefully Halldor is alright after that wipeout. He sent it so hard.
Haldor was a perfect example of the "fuck it and huck it" mentality that the snowboard big air has and the ski big air needs.

He has a concussion but seems to be ok. He didn't loose consciousness so that was good. Hope helgason is alright. He looked like he got pretty fucked up overrotating that trip. Took it straight to his head.

Yea well i can see that anyday at my local mountain, thats not what x games is about, its about pushing the envelope Would rather see a huge cork 5/7/9 with a tail, than a trippl anyday
NAhh they the same size, just that i didn't have any speed at all so i had to do anything to get speed... but at the bottem of every run i pull down the pants... -E-DOLLO.
Damn tripples look boring after about 20 of them haha. But in all fairness some of them looked mad steezy. Haldor is insane! The lobster flips are the best looking doubles ever! Too bad he went down hard.
On another note. Does anyone know why there are only 2 different grabs beeing done (exept for Haldors) in both Slopestyle qualifiers and Big Air? Havn´t seen one tail/nose/ good method

Snowboard big air was pretty awesome last night to see how triples were being thrown like they were nothing by the end.
However, to me, pretty much all the tricks (apart from Haldor's), looked the same - I know they were mixing up switch, backside, frontside etc - but I just can't tell the difference with snowboarding.
After a while the triples just lost their impact for me - although the last few jumps were cool have Torstein and McMorris landing the tricks they were trying to get (I only knew they were different tricks however due to the commentators).
Skiing Big Air should be much more interesting to watch - at least it's easy to see when someone is dropping switch, you've got more grab variation possibilities etc.
In short, I can't fucking wait to see Vincent Gagnier throw that sw screaming seamen genie grab 9 he was doing at London Freeze - up close that shit looks fucking amazing.
Just hope we get to see the whole comp instead of it cutting to a snowboard comp all the time.
Also - why the fuck does the livestream on ESPN player have to go to a holding screen when there's adverts on the normal TV program? The cameras are still filming the runs - just keep the feed going!

I don't think the runs keep going on commercials. I've been there live at the event, and I'm pretty sure that the whole event stops for commercials.

Fair enough but that doesn't make it any less difficult to throw a switch backside triple. Just got to know the riders regular stance.

I didn't say it was any less difficult - obviously some huge new tricks going down; I was just commenting that they all look very similar to me; and probably to many other people not totailly into snowboarding - which made the impact of the tricks slightly diluted.Fair enough but that doesn't make it any less difficult to throw a switch backside triple.

Not dissing the boarders' ability - the level of riding was ridiculous.
