Watch out for this kid, after great FIS Pipe results 

he came

wooo Finland

 

[swTroyanchick]

bump

 

[swTroyanchick]

anyone saw his final pipe run uso pipe ?

 

[lankkari]

yep, kalle threw humongeous sw 10 from the last hit, held grabs, had a sick run nevertheless. only judges were a bunch of assholes

 

[puhiS]

kalle is sick all around skier. cant expect anything non steezy from him...

 

[swTroyanchick]

yep he probably wold get more attention if he would be american

 

[jwhyte]

he has won the world cup in apex two years in a row
and he's even the 07 canadian national champ

Kalle got screwed over so badly at USO. He should have won, or at least gotten 2nd. Instead he got 5th

 

[swTroyanchick]

indeed !!!!

The newschoolers in Finland have always been good. There are many more

than Kalle Leinonen or AJ Kemppainen (check for Matti Räty, Iisko

Heiskanen, Mart Perendi, Pekka Hyysalo, Janne Sarajärvi, Joonas Kuoksa

and belive me there is lotta more!). I mean we got the skill for sure

but the big brands haven't been intrested from our boys for some

reason. : / Anyways I hope this breaks the bubble.

Also download this free 30min long movie they've made:http://www.legacy.1g.fi/

^ I remember watching that a while back, it's good. Not the best, but a good free movie.

He did get screwed, I think he deserved second at USFSO.

As for FIS Pipe... who cares abotu FIS anymore?
