Fun Facts:

Of the 40 jumps, 24 were switch 10s.

There were 13 crashes.

All skiers in the top ten threw a switch 10.

Only one person hit the jump forward: Tanner Rainville, cork 3.

Only two skiers threw unnatural: Charles Gagnier and Peter Olenick. Charles scored 10 points higher on his natural; Peter ended up in tenth.

Jacob Wester did a new double-grab: true nose and ahead of the binding on the same ski, but he fell.

Of people that didn't fall on both runs: 10 people scored better on their second run than their first, 8 scored better on their first.

Rory Bushfield "thought [he'd] give the crowd something" and went for a switch double back! It looked like he landed it clean, but his binding released and he ate it pretty good.

Tanner Hall pulled out of slopestyle early in the morning (when slopestyle was still scheduled to happen). He says he's going to focus on pipe and skiing pow in the backcountry.
