[cheener12]

from the article:Tom Wallisch, who threw a fantastic double backflip after sketching out

on his second run, secured the overall AFP Slopestyle win with his

fifth place finish.

What I'm more concerned with is that Henrik threw a nose butter dub 10 in competition and got 10th place...

This

i love how kids think that by doing one amazing trick an athlete deserves an amazing finish. if the rest of his run was sketch it doesnt matter if he did a nose butter dub 10 hes still not going to place well.

 

[Slowbro]

he fell or was sketchy for the rest of his run.

 

[steezy.stew]

Russ is always getting boned

 

[D-Neuf]

He didn't put down a full run in the finals. The nosebutter dub 10 was in his semi-final run.

I did not see many stomped landings in the vids, lots of flailing too.

 

[Dan.P]

So I hear Russ got gypped. What happened?

 

[Yossarian]

It's getting slightly ridiculous with Henshaw. Wtf can that guy do better?

 

[Vinci]

absolutely agree on this one

couple of years back I would have said that hes missing style (somehow, can't really explain why)

but lately everything he does is so amazingly flawless and just steezy as fuck

no matter if its a handdrag cork 3 or a dub/triple whatever

 

[c4t_l0ver]

Gus deserved it, his runs we're flawless.

Big air tonight, gunna be pimp !

 

[The_Beekeeper]

I'm starting to think they are actually deducting points for Russ' fucking hideous outerwear.

 

[.squirrely.]

woodsy's run was ill but gus is just too tech. 4 on to the flat pipe was ridiculous along with bis dub over the channel

 

[Yossarian]

This, I feel, is swiftly becoming the only answer with any real logic behind it hahaha
