LET SWANY COMPETE!

 

[FBGM]

I have a question for Steve

Hey Steve if u coached Liz swaney why is she the worst

Unfortunately we had to cancel the live commentating, but we will try to do it wednesday night for mens pipe final.

 

[KeeganKil]

God dammit e heath

 

[theabortionator]

Swany gets no air, does no tricks, and gets a 30 and a 31. Other people throwing tricks the whole way down, slide out at the bottom and get a 25?

I get it.

So pretty much could have your ski take off at the drop in and go straight to the bottom and still get at least a 28?

 

[eheath]

God dammit e heath

Yeah yeah I know

 

[theabortionator]

One of the USA girls just boosted the pipe. She was going huge! Only got an 89 but it was a pretty solid run.

 

[theabortionator]

I thought brittas run was better but whatever.

 

[theabortionator]

Casey got some pretty damn good air too. Nice to see some of the women boosting.

 

[Breaking_Rad]

Cassie Sharpe should win simply because she understands how to grab a ski

 

[eheath]

How was Cassie's run a 94? Didn't grab either 9 I'm pretty sure... Judging here we gooooo

 

[bob_dole]

Just saying but...

PAVED=VAPED

 

[theabortionator]

It might just be me, but when some of the women are trying to visualize their tricks at the top of the pipe they kind of remind me of the infected from 28 days later.

 

[Mayrandpodcast]

annalisa drew went quite huge on her run, respect to her

 

[Mayrandpodcast]

big respect to marie martinod for still sending it at 33

and to cassie sharpe, dat cork 10 to end her run was prittyyy steezy

 

[Breaking_Rad]

Feel like Liz Swaney or Roz G in Finals should have been a toss up. Liz was getting about as much air out of the pipe.

 

[TOAST.]

Swaney would have beat maddie bowman if there wasnt a qualifier.

I thought she got underscored by a point or 2.

 

[Breaking_Rad]

Swaney would have beat maddie bowman if there wasnt a qualifier.

Tough to feel bad for Bowman as she's won so much, but also while in that winning position she really never did anything to progress further. Almost gave the finger to grabbing her skis, kept the run purely robotic for years and never trying to take it further.

Now she's playing catchup when during that time she really could have used her position to further progress the entire field.

 

[Turner.]

Fuckin hell ya Cassie way to go!

 

[SteveStepp]

I fully approve this podium. Even up until Brita got knocked out by Analisa, her run was definitely better. Then Britas personal improvement with grabs on every hit, and different grabs on every hit, absolutely deserved the bronze. Solid judging on this event surprisingly.

Unfortunately we had to cancel the live commentating, but we will try to do it wednesday night for mens pipe final.

Bummer. Will one have to sign up to that streaming service to enjoy?

I already know that even though I can access the Olympic NBC site, my cable service doesn't have the live streaming, so maybe a no go here anyway.

Cassie’s cork 10 was so sick

Brita stepped up that Run 3! Going really big and nailing grabs way more than run 2, that was cool to see it all click.

Cassie was so damn solid, badda bing well deserved.

 

[snomaster]

Anyone else notice that Justin Dorey made a love triangle of the finals? Ha!

I really enjoyed watching Cassie, Analesse and Brita send it. And mega props for stomping an extra 10 on the last hit from Cassis.

 

[lostheels]

it is hard to see that Anais Caradeux did not start in the finals and nobody got her stop. i dont unterstand that

 

[snowfinder]

I found out how the judges are getting their scores.
