I'm not judging other people.  The comment about hating was a joke, sorry it wasn't obvious to you.
I really don't give a shit about competitions.  They're fun to watch but I have just as much fun or more fun watching Edits by HH or any other stylish skier.  My point is why would someone compete (sponsor recognition was brought to my attention) without the drive or want to win?
Were you not a tad perplexed at Jacob Wester this year at X games?  I mean to each their own but it seems like they are wasting their time when they could be filming, having fun, doing whatever it is they want skiing to be.
Not judging, just a tad confused.
I guess if they want to change the way judges look at grabs and all then more power to them.  If that's not their reason then I don't know why they would compete and not do the tricks they know will win.
