What complicated and inconsistent criteria. So glad we moved on smh.

Btw: this was a joke about how we judge today. I like these rules above.

Damn, that is a sweet piece of memorabilia.

I actually still ride Vincent Dorian's pro model- 4FRNT VCT.

Definitely not the greatest. By this you could straight air the jump and score 75 or do a dub cork 14, miss the grab and wash on the landing, and score less.

Candide got 4th with a flair tail grab. I think the podium was JF, Moseley, Dorion.
