Realistic stuff! From both skiers and snowboarders. Curious to see what you guys think will be thrown down in ANY event. Discuss.

I hope skiers don't do triples... Snowboard big air will be a huck fest but fun to watch

someone will spin so hard that they create a blackhole and disappear for 8 years. Then, in 8 years, the X games will be going on and he will flash back and stomp the trick and get a perfect score.

Meh. I think everyone has moved past mute grabs. Blunt scores more points. Lots of spinning. Lots of tail grabs.

And I would be stunned if there weren't a few triples at least in big air.

Hyped to be going there.

Well, I'd expect the usual...... Future Spins...... Cold.... and shit like that.


But I've heard that buttermilk basically just looks like a pile of snow now, they haven't started making anything?

Yeah, it was the same ol' stuff. Which is I guess standard for a slopestyle course, but still, could be done different and better.

Hopefully we'll see a dub cork 7 incorporated into a slopestyle run, that'd be real sick.

Same doubles we saw at dew, maybe switch this time and to the right. I don't know. It's whatever.

Hopefully double cork 7, maybes a tiple in big air. Halfpipe will be interesting. Maybe a run that fully consists of doubles.



Shawn white will get a 102 in half pipe and the world will implode

Not sure about skiing but if Shaun White does a triple judges will certainly make sure he wins.

Isn't tanner supposed to compete. Maybe dumont will and we'll get a tanner versus dumont pipe thing. But now there's a ton of other good people.

And more cannon rails.

WHen asked, 60% of people who are attending X-Games are going to see Shawn White. the other biggest contender was Bobby Brown at 18%.

Shawn Whites sponsors, pay for a lot of what happens at x-games. What's $5 million dollars in advertising between friends right?

You think those judges gave Shawn White a perfect 100 because he earned it? Hell no. They did it because that's what ever kid across the country who doesn'st know shit about this sport wanted to see.

Now you're right it doesn't effect us skiers, but still, it's bullshit.

It has been a year since that shit happened.  Consistently bitching about it every time someone makes a thread involving Shaun White or the x games, does nothing.  If you guys are that pissed about the ginger not being judged appropriately, then start doing something productive.

He is right.  Shaun White should of not have gotten a 100.  Anyone who has watched a few hours of the other competitors' runs would know that.   QQing about Shaun White on NewSchoolers is about as productive as hammering a screw in a board.  If you want something to change this year email ESPN or start a petition for objective judging

Considering the length of the big air jump landing, I'd say to expect triples. Probably from more than one person.

For skiing i think it will be the same typical guys near the top of slopestyle (Wallisch, Brown, Harlaut, etc.) but also a lot more lesser known guys comin up

For snowboarding i think that it will end up being McMorris and Torstein in an all out war for slope and big air

Shaun White will score a 101 in the pipe while he fakes a gooch injury so he doesn't have to hand drag all over the slopestyle course too.

I hope to god they make a better big air jump than last year, so you know, it's actually a big air contest. Henrik dub 7 and butter dub whatever is what I hope to see and some Vinny Cash or at least have someone bring in a similar style.

ABM should be invited because he would definitely go dub 7 in his slope qualifier run.

Blunck is gonna impress all of you in pipe. have him on your ffl team if you don't already.

B Brown will be back too.

And oh yeah. have you guys seen Torin in the pipe at Breck this week? he's right back on it
