Does anyone else think Dumont got robbed this year at the x-games with only a bronze? His first hit, cork trucker 5, is INSANE... he didn't get enough credit for it!!
 
Yeah, but Laurent Favre was super progressive, technical, and went really big with all of it. I think he deserved every point he got.
 
Actually he didnt get robbed. He fell in all of his runs. So yeah man, sorry he didnt get robbed, but he showed mad progression.
 
he did have a sick run but he took a lot out of the pipe so he didnt have to be in as long cause he was in pain. When u cut that much off of the pipe ull get a lower score because of the less tricks u can do.
 
agreed, g-unit mother fucker out of a french guys mouth on national TV was epic,as was his run, cork 7 sw 5 sw 9 what?! i was just watching it on expn.com. i wish they had andreas b/c i think he did sw 10s in bothhis runs, on differnt walls, correct me if i'm wrong
 
ya dumont got robbed

he should have got at least silver

ya andreas got robbed that switch in the pipe is insane
 
TANNER deserved it without a doubt. Simon had a sick run props for being injured and competing. Laurent and Hatveit had the most proggresive runs by far. Not our desision let the judges judge.
 
i dont think as much dumont got ripped but that tanner got WAY more credit than he should have ... in my mind dumonts run was better than tanner's because he grabbed slightly better .... but also in my mind i think laurent and andreas probably shouldve taken the first few positions
 
id say that tanner hall even thoe he is my favorite skier should have got silver dumont gold and favre bronze the only reason that would make me switch tanner and laurant is that they both did the same ammount of hits but tanner spined them all and laurant did one strait air
 
dumont does such siiiiick grabs in ALL his spins there epic bra, for suuuure. like corked out 10's pencil steeze dude, epic for suuuuuuure.

agreed
 
tanner hall stomped everything clean to perfection, hands down he won-now go wait til next years x-games and complain about that
 
laurent and andreas killed it more than anyone else without a doubt.tanner had a dope run, stomping everything but both his and dumonts were nearly as tech as laurents and andreas
 
LOIC and Laurent should have done way better. LOLO 1st tanner 2nd Loic 3rd DRe 4th Dumont 5th Loic is king shit man that kids soo chill
 
I think it should have been:

1. Laurent

2. Hall

3. Dumont

And this is why...

Why Laurent first? He fucking killed it. Biggest allie-opp, ever. Then HUGE 5 after, then straight air (only bad part of his run, should have done something like a 9) then SO sick SO perfect cork 7 true OPP tail, then allie-opp switch 5 with some good amplitude, and a parfect switch 9, with not too much amplitude, but WHO CARES SWITCH 9!!!

Why Hall second? Very solid run. Everything perfect, big, stylie. He did it 3 times too! Everything was perfect, with grabs on everything too.

Why Dumont third? His run, same as Tanners, but he drug his hands on his 10s and didnt grab on his 10 or 9, its in the slow mo you can see. He deserved brozne.

All in all, Laurent got fucked, Tanner got lucky, and Dumont got what he deserved.
 
Forgot to add that it was a very unprogressive run, he has been doing the same run for 3 years, he just got lucky this time and went bigger than b4. He should have lost to laurent because 7, sw5, sw9 is alot harder than cork 9, allie oop flat 5, cork 10.
 
Yeah, i have tape of the comp. I watched it again last night, he gets the tail, dumont doesnt. I can barly grab in a 7 its amazing how they can ha ha.
 
Who cares this event is over. They all killed that fuckin pipe throwing big shit the whole event. Then it's just about personal opinion..
