Do you think it's Olssons time to be off the Table this year? After watching X, i have to say he's not looking nearly favourite like he has in past years... What are your thoughts?


And his radness, it just can't be quantified

I dont think he's up to par on pipe anymore, but big air he can still dominate. look at whistler last year, he beat out tj and simon

oh, the guy is definately up to par in pipe, he just doesnt have that much pipe in his vid segs. cant blame him either, he has the chance to launch off huge backcountry booters, so why bother filming in the pipe

Jon needs a better ski for superpipe - he's losing the amplitude war. Otherwise, his skills, discipline, and consistency would have him on top. At least, I think so...

This is Whistler, as I'm getting my ass whooped by Jon - I fuckin' hate that guy - that guy wins all the time.

tj and simon and all those young guns are good in all, but they just dont have the experience...i mean jon is pretty much one of the best all around skiers and thats why he has been on the podium for every x-games halfpipe and slopestyle event they have ever had. i dont think he is going anywhere

haha if he trained for superpipe, ever, he'd dominate. but he never practices, what you see is pure skill.

His spins for example in X-games slope were so smooth and perfectly stomped, no other could do that.

Its because he goes so far down the pipe on every hit he doesn't get as many hits as everyone else. The judges don't like that as much as some one that goes really high, and gets in the three more hits.

he hasnt improved as much as the other skiers in the past few years. his pipe run is basically the same as it was 3 or 4 years ago

He has the best style of all the skiers out there. Sure, maybe he doesnt pull CR's 12 or other super technical tricks, but he can make his spins and other tricks look so stylie and perfect. Its beautiful.

he's hella good, definately one of the pros that i respect the most, all he needs to do to compete with those kids in the pipe is practice a little bit and work on gettin higher out, other than that he's totally set

AS somebody said he hadn't got pipe in are and neither good skies for park (that chance that the best pipe pros is salomon pros: simont, Cr, Olenick) but in the x games 2004, he was 2º.
In x-games win the marketing and for that tanner have three golds. If you see the rounds in expn website you can see the popular vote and .........
