First run had a double backflip off the second trick, she didnt ride it out but still super dank. Too bad Girls Ski Slopestyle likely won't look anything like that

A girl just got a 93 and her best trick was a 7, I don't see much progression.

Hopefully that girl can land her double.

They need to start scoring the women the same as the men. If a guy scores a 75 a girl should score a 75 as well. If that just so happens to be the winning score than so be it. Maybe that will send a message to the girls that they need to step their game up.

I think using the same course as the men is really holding them back, they should have less features and longer run-ins, or just ride longer boards.

spinning all 4 ways is progression for women's, not hucking a double wackflip.

Men do doubles and triples> "I'd rather see 180s and slower, more stylish tricks."
Women do 1s and 3s> "I'd rather see doubles and triples"

I totally agree with you though haha.
