The JOI wasnt a huckfest.. and it was fucking .. I yelled at my computer in excitment il say that. SO Xgames.. and whatever else all the opens please learn from this. please leave the 1080's at home.
 
no, because the jump was massive and they wernt all the same trick, there was variety and a half.
 
the flatspin hasnt been in a comp and it deffinatly wasnt hucked, and from the choppy footage i saw a big spin didnt win the contest and from the clear footage i saw everyone said fuck it and was oozing style.
 
jon's double marsupial or whatever looked smooth as hell. not hucked at all. and he stomped it like he never left the ground.
 
i think what he meant was, JOI 06 had more style in it then many of the other comp's and little brats on this site put together.
 
I loved that comp more than anything else....baring witness on BACK 9...that might beat it...got to see more footage....but....

No, JOI was so fucking ridiclous, I loved it...different tricks, different atmosphere...sick shit....The trick selection sticks out in my mind....
 
yea JOI had the sickest jump i've ever seen. Not even snowboarding jumps are that sick. JOI is pushing the evolution of skiing. That fucking zero spin looked so crazy!!!
 
Oh man, leftside 90 to rightside 270?!?!? WTF!?!?!?!?! Thats just purely aubsurd and "progressive" at the same time.
 
Wait for WSI big air. I spoke to McKeeman yesterday and he said it's going to be head to head format, drawing a 3/5/7/9 out of a hat, sweet.
 
it was a perfect comp. notice how before the actual comp they had a 360 contest, then 540, then 720, then oldschool? then the next day had the real comp and pk hunder, who comes in second did a 540 nose the entire night to get where he was and he beat out switch 10s? ya.. i agree with the person who started this thread. sure, people were doing 12, 14s, double flatspins, etc.. but the judges REWARDed 540s, switch 7s, etc.
 
this topic was perfect until you said leave the 1080s at home...because 10's are fine, as long as not 30 out of 32 do them....this comp had a big enough jump that there was way mreo diversity
 
i think the x-games should either be replaced by, or become more like JOI or candides...these 2 comps definatley separate good skier from great skiers. all the x-games does is see who can huck over tables that can be found at any mountain...JOI and,especial candides have massive and ballsy features that actualy take a lot of skill and balls to hit
