It would be terrifying to watch, idk why it seems sketchier than super pipe to me.

Almost scary to watch sometimes but sick af. A lot of the biggest comps were pipe.comps too. A lot of big airs would be during the weekenda of those events.

Pipe comps are super dead these days rip

Back in 90-00 the jumps were way smaller and there were no dubs n shit, like you could win with a SW cork 5. A QP made sense to make the runs longer and add something but now with triples and shit there's no need
