Official Olympic Discussion: Men's Slopestyle

Mceachran's rail section was dope. Henrik isn't even going to make finals. Sucks McRae had to go first bc he got hosed on scoring. I would hate to be a judge bc there are literally 20 people with the ability to win gold.
 
The Canadians ski with great style - you can tell it's important to them.

Henrik is by far the most stylish jumper out there.

Some of these dudes - I can't even watch them ride; they're so wacky looking.
 
Don't know why I had my hopes up for this contest. Such insanely disappointing judging. Half the guys going to the finals accidentally got their events mixed up - missing aerials quals for their jumps and the figure skating contests for their rails. The trick choices with these grabs and rails are wack beyond belief.

Judges need drug testing. Oscar missed a grab and touched his hands down and is in first?

Judges need to release their notes so it's transparent on what is scoring and what isn't. It literally makes zero sense to me. They have to be high to put Oscar in first. I didn't think Andri deserved a 95 either but I honestly have no idea what they are looking for. I thought Evan Mceachrans rail section was so tech that he deserved a higher score and McRae got fucked by having to drop first. This field is stacked though. Just hate to see all the guys throw down and not get rewarded bc they have no idea what judges are looking for. I'm guessing that QP side hit is scoring huge because that's the only reason Oscar should even be in top 12
 
They need someone to give design input on the rails rather than just let it become somebodies sculpture project. They're way to hard to utilize and keep speed, and also just to be confident on. That kink after the rainbow rail is super quick and nobody used it, nobody used the whole curvy - wallride - down rail either.
 
this is the worst judging ive ever seen

BELLEMARE GOT ROBBED!

swtails 4on to switch(!), switch 180 on the qp to 4on, sw2 pretz4 ,left dub 10, right dub 12, sw dub 12 and he gets a fuckin 61........

people slipping on rails are getting a better score than his run.... the judging is rewarding k-feds with 85 scores
 
ABM delivers.

oh damn they scored him well. Whatever he did off that bump before the jumps was sick.

also this announcer calling Russ Russel Henshaw. Never ever heard anybody ever call him that.
