I swear if the mention one more time in a competition how this man did the quad cork, I might go crazy. Like don't get me wrong it was a gnarly trick, but jeez they have been mentioning it every time he drops in for a run for two straight seasons.
 
I thought his rail section at Dew Tour was pretty fire, that sw 2 pretz 6 off the donkey...

Also thought this was pretty fucking money -https://www.instagram.com/p/BrViSCvFogC/?utm_source=ig_share_sheet&igshid=1bjb8184m46b0

Based on those two things, I’m saying it looks like he has kind of cleaned his style up. Not as stiff on those jump landings and not waving his arms around trying to force a flowy style. In his rail section, his hands were at his hips the entire time -https://www.instagram.com/p/BrdRDRHjc8L/?utm_source=ig_share_sheet&igshid=qanjo91p58lw (video 2)
 
Not my favorite rider style wise but he got robbed on his rails runs. He should have been on the podium for sure.

dude, who the fuck watches competitions theese days?

Nobody. They're just tellivised to make athletes feel inportant.

Comps are getting weird again. The announcing blows sometimes but it has for at least a decade anyway. Courses are getting more creative, women are crushing (at least snowboarders). Everyone has trips so now they aren't a novelty that will always win. Some cool creative tricks do well.

Dew Tour @ Breck was awesome. It got me watching contests again.

When wallisch commentates it makes the comps actually watchable.

Wallisch and LVV are a great combo, and Jen and LVV are a great combo. But no other comp has close to an X-Games budget, which has also been dropping for years. All boils down to money.
