crappy pipe, but sick run. dude was pushing the limits of how big you could go in a pipe like that. i still dig his style.

what do you think?

Such an amazing run. Him and CR were boosting bigger and bigger each successive run. It was madness.

haha the commentating on that run is so good. Makes me wish they were still that stoked on runs instead of tearing every run apart

Such an incredible day for pipe skiing, back when the X Games was a whole lot cooler.

at the same time, it's crazy how timeless Candide's skiing is. when i watch old footage of other skiers, it actually looks different than i remembered it, because things look smaller or more hucked (e.g., the first x games big air). Candide's skiing always looks huge and stylish (like that last alley-oop flair)

This is actually so true. Now, even if someone puts down a great run the commentators are always stoked then they say "But... [something negative]".
