The Ongoing Debate of Last Year's X-Games

jon got sooo shafted.

dumont should have not won pipe, not even close. great amplitude, but come on, 5, 5, straight air, cork 5, straight air, shitty 7. no hit was very clean at all save maybe the cork 5
 
ok, its been one year since the x-games and still no one agrees on who should have won, one things for sure is that Charles, tanner and jon were on the podium. if in one year noone can agree on the podium finishes, how do you expect judges to fully analyze and decide EXACTLY who should finish 1,2,3 in a period of like 30 seconds. just get over it. charles won, he deserved it as much as tanner or jon, end of story.
 
This comp was one of the closest finishes i've ever seen, however tanner should have won. His landings were smooth as shit, just as smooth as Garnier if not better. I would say the jump section of the course was a draw even though I liked tanners style better. Tanner should have won the comp with his rails. Garnier's one footer was progressive but sloppy. Tanners nollie was decent but he did much cleaner. For some reason people think that tanner's revert after his DOPE 450-270 out takes away from his run. This is wrong, it was completely controlled he was simply setting up for his next hit. Just because you land one way doesn't mean you have to hit the next feature that way. Sometimes it is cool to ride straight into the next hit, but it shouldn't lower his score. Tanner got robbed!
