Jon's comments at ICER.

I talked to him briefly. He was stoked about NS. He was really upset about the jump. I can't remember or repeat all the words he used to decribe it. He really wanted to throw the roo, but there was just no way. We talked about the JOI and his comment was this, "it really wasn't that hard to design and build the jump we had, or any good jump, this is unnecessary." Jon's really a chill guy and a leader in skiing, you could tell he was ready to leave and go party. It wasn't so much about the jump being overly dangerous (which it really was compared to JOI or redbull or candide), it was more about it just being whack and holding everyone back.
 
jon is such a pimp, read the article in the november issue of FREESKIER. he is such a pimp

i cant get over how badass he is
 
ya jon is such a badass, that article in freeskier was sick. at least he is actually doing stuff with his life... like buying houses and cars and stuff... what a true european in his sandles and open button-up shirt
 
Yeah.... Jon is the man, but still, of course the Candide Invitational or JOI will be better. Their jumps aren't build on a scaffolding in a baseball stadium in November in San Fransisco. But I agree, the jump could have been better by the looks of it.
 
wellthey build scafoldingjumps everyyear uin europe andthey arent nearly as dangerous as the icer jump.

freestyle.ch kicker is built in September in Zurich. It can be done properly.
