There is no KOS without LJ. Pumped to see him back on the main stage.

Really???

He showed in the past that he can compete witht eh big guyz without any trouble... there is no way he do not deserve a sot. and no this contest is not meant for STYLE. it's just a regular big air comp where tech smooth tricks will win over sketchy tricks and over general style.

I typed a response to this thread....the gist of it being that I was pleased with the winners....other than Gus. Because I wasn't logged in,...or something....when I clicked to post, my words were lost.

I voted for 3 of the 4 winners....I would have rather seen Gus's bib go to Sean, Dale, Tim, Karl, or one of the other couple anonymous Euro, but I think Gus will do well and could easily finish top 8 if he's on his game...especially if he does that dub grab cork 9, or dub rodeo 9 like he did in his entry.

Part of my post was: "inb4" some droolingly stupid moron claims that I'm hating on Gus for not wearing big outerwear."

This site is too predictable.

When people bring up issues with Gus's skiing, from an aesthetic perspective, why do people automatically think it has anything to do with his clothing?

Whether or not Gus has good "style" is obviously entirely subjective, but when people say they aren't fans, bringing fucking jackets into the discussion is laughable.

P.S.

Congrats to all the winners. Go show why the public spoke for you guys and kill shit. It's funny that there's such a huge talent pool, and such a small gap between "top flight" pros and "pro-ams", that literally any one of the guys who weren't invited outright could upset the field and snag the top spot. Wild.

Just to clarify, I didn't win the video qual last year, PC Fosse, Martini, LJ, and Chug did. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0E85bTvLtUM I received a formal invitation to go last year, but it was too expensive and too short notice, so I didn't attend. However, two years ago when I did go to the event, I qualified 2nd into finals...

Thanks to everybody that voted for me though, and everybody that is stoked on my video - I really appreciate it. I can't wait for the King of Style this year!!!

It wasn't "unnatural" he spins right. But ian is fucking good and anyone who says he shouldn't be in a contest should go get fucked.

Honestly I don't know how they even judge this anymore, all the videos were so close so anyone chosen from that list could have had the spot. Congrats to the 4 guys that got selected
