2012 Euro X Slope Course preview - Gus Kenworthy

Course looking pretty tight. That second jump looked smaller though? I dunno. Love the pole jam butter pad combo raily thingy. Wanna see the boy young casabon get freaky deeky on it.
 
I would agree about the second jump in the video, but it is bigger. He just went way bigger on the first jump than the second, but distance wise it's way bigger.
 
I'm stoked to see Laker there!

And that course looks sick and all, but I honestly would rather see that rail section break up the jumps. like two jumps, then that last rail section, then the last jump. I just like to see the last hit be a jump, cause I feel like all the momentum of the run climaxes on their last trick.

But nonetheless, that course looks so sick, I'm glad it's not the stock course that winter x in the US has had.
 
speed issues. jumps in a row is about keeping speed. If you threw anything other than a cannon rail feature between jump 2 and 3, riders would have to dump a bunch of speed to hit a rail, then would struggle to get enough speed into the 3rd jump.
 
Shit, I didn't know that. But with his dew tour finishes, he should qualify for winter x next year, right?

And yeah, I didn't think of the speed issues. But whatever, the course looks dope!
 
this, i feel its gunna play a lot more towards the rail specific skiers, Bobby browns not going to be able to bang out a 4 out after 3 dub corks, same with TWall. Hopefully henrik and b-dog do well because of it, my two favorite comp skiers (besides Tschill)
 
Where's the logic in this? You don't think Wallisch of Brown could do a 4 out of that rainbow after hitting a few jumps? Am I misreading? Also, Tom Wallisch isn't a rail skier? Right...
 
If i'm reading this correctly, you just said Wallisch's rail tricks aren't good enough to win this contest. I'm going to have to respectfully disagree with you.
