new video on freeskier shows dumont spinning both ways and throwing down doubles. considering how much he kills altitude harder then anyone else in competition. if he can dial in his spins both ways he should destroy everyone this year. he through his double 3rd hit down the pipe so that alone is pretty impressive. all and all this year's pipe should be sick comp in and comp out

Just about everybody is throwing that double though.  And plenty of people can go both ways.  It's his amplitude that keeps him at the top in my opinion.

BUT, there is one thing he's doing that I haven't seen yet...He threw the Double at the bottom of the pipe after two hits, which means he might throw it in the middle of his run or even at the end - which is harder cause you have less speed/height normally.

If Justin Dorey successfully lands his dub along with some other nice tricks he will win hands down.

meh i don't think it changes much.

so he's learnt a double that everyone else can already do. he still isn't grabbing it yet. kevin rolland has back to back doubles and is capable of throwing them near the end of his run. dorey also has b2b's as well i think.

i still think rolland dorey and bertoni will be the guys to beat, with adams and kempainen being the most interesting to watch.

sick man, im hoping someone can nail the perfect run for x: whiskey flip, to rightside whiskey flip to dub cork 12, to alleyoop whiskey( dubflat), that would probably be the steeziest runs ever, hopefully this person does not puke from all the dizzyness
