Thoughts? Seemed like last year they were inviting some lesser known pros and this year it’s basically just the slope style line up.
TLDR: No swerve skiers

Bended_ToenailNo LSM 😳
ReturnToMonkeyI think he kinda blew it on the last two comps. Maybe he felt the pressure of a comp, maybe he had a couple off nights. Either way, he crashed more than the others and didn't do impressive enough tricks to get an invite during a covid year
GrandThingsThey should toss a Kimbo rail on the side too...would crank up the event a little bit
asparagusfriendAnyone else think it’s wack that knuckle huck and big air finals aren’t gonna be on youtube?
ReturnToMonkeyWait really? But they only are having finals for all events this year
asparagusfriendWait then what's big air encore?

eheathHave you ever watched xgames before? Last year was the first time they ever live streamed anything on youtube, its always only on EPSN
asparagusfriendThat explains it. Last year was the first year I watched all the events live.
mango_rianKnuckle huck is useless cause there wont be any creative skier like Peyben, Magnus.... Its more like a „little“ big air to just get paid for the biggest spins n flips. Really sad :(
GrandThingsI want to see a nollie to flat
brentkimballwe need swerve skiers in the knuckle huck
BLandz_I disagree. Knuckle Huck is an x games comp and the whole purpose of x games is to go big and do big tricks, even in knuckle huck. How do you judge a swerve skier doing some wacky handdrag butter swerve shit in comparison to another guy doing a NB Dub 12. It would be sick, don’t get me wrong. But it would mess up the whole idea of the comp.

jwillyMango should 100% be in knuckle huck.
ReturnToMonkeyI'm hyped to see Jossi in it though
K-Dot.love jossi but it feels similar to wallisch's inclusion last year, i don't expect him to do anything crazier than the rest of that line up
VT_scratchsince no one has even posted the names in this thread here they are
