Olympic scnowboard pipe

yeah i hope the reportedly shitty pipe doesnt stop shaw wite from trying a trip.. if he was planning on it period (which i think he is/was)
 
also this is one of the judges:

hopefully skiing will actually have judges who ski?
 
can't find the info at all. I'm sure it's somewhere but it's impossible to find.

only reason I know she's a judge is cause CBC briefly showed the judges names and it's the only name I remembered out of them to look up.
 
It's just a crashfest. Really disturbing to see, and this should really be a lesson to not get hacks to build a pipe, especially for an Olympics games. I'm really pissed off to see such a train wreck.
 
That's fucked was hoping it would be better when they re cut it. Heard yesterday that the vert was still fucked up. That's not good at all. Hopefully everyone stays safe. Maybe they can get rid of the drop in, make them go from the pipe wall and only boost methods and under 540 degree spins.

Wonder why they didn't use STP. There are other very good companies as well but STP has the experience delivering the goods when it needs to get done right for the big events. Wouldn't have been a problem for them.

 
Planet snow tools are good dudes as well and have been around forever/ built their fair share of big event setups and high profile pipes.
 
This pipe is super fucking undervert. IF they don't vert that bitch up for skiing the patrol is going to need spatulas to clear the deck off.
 
Chinese guy just did two awesome first hits, with a double, and then crashed in the third hit, with a straight air.

Then got very angry with both arms claiming at the heavens
 
If Danny and Shaun let a Chinese rider grab gold they should walk home from Sochi, I don't care how bad this pipe is.

Chief of Halfpipe'

Russia has awesome titles. However, i'm getting kinda concerned for the ski halfpipe riders the way this is going
 
That's Ed Leigh if you're watching the bbc stream. He just gets far too overexcited. Pretty much creamed his pants over some guy doing a method in quallies
 
STP was not willing to do it for the ridiculous offer that the IOC or Russians made. I forget which one. Their contract was going to be really bad and I think they were asked to do a lot of stuff really cheap. Basically the Russians want to keep as much money in Putin n' Friends' pockets as possible.
 
White is done!! absolutely no way that's a podium run with those 2 mistakes. if it is, something is seriously rigged.
 
I thought Sean's run was a 90 or so as well, I think they actually ended up getting the top 5 exactly right. If he'd landed it clean, he would have won, he went absolutely huge. But I completely agree with IPod winning and I'm pretty happy he did.

Still, it means very little considering how awful that pipe was. They HAVE to get it cleaned up for skiing. Have to. Christ, who do you even favour in a pipe like that? Maybe Rolland?
