wow all the scores are fucked. the announcers are super confused it s really funny.
Are the judges playing dice in their booth and attributing random scores ?

stoked for james wood though he got steeze.

Nice to see they're not struggling for speed like last year. Or is it just Todd who scrubbing between features?

Gus said the second is about 75 ft. I think they just look small on video/picture. When I first saw pics I thought they were tiny.

if they are 75ft thats quite a step up in size from last year as the biggest they had was ~30ft to the knuckle and 35-40ft to sweet ( i know as i hit it a 2 weeks later, unchanged) but then again they had major major issues with speed last year and maybe dont so much this year and so went bigger. that aside, fuck yeah woodsy. uk represent!
