Eventhough a lot of people on NS hate freestyle (moguls) in the olympics but what trick do u think will win it? I think a 1080, double back, or double front with a clean line n decent speed, of course
 
well this year in womans freestyle, a 3 and a backflip got gold. The girl in second place did a cork 7. I liked that better.
 
Alexandre Bilodeau did

a d-spin to corck 7 or 10 and won gold I think few time with those tricks on world tour.
 
maybe you dont understand mogul skiing. its more about the speed and the knee movement (not coming apart) then the air. the air is only like 25% of the score or something. its almost worthless. i was at deer valley and the winner (womens) threw a 3 with a spread and something else. its not about the trick!!! thats the beauty of moguls. its about the MOGULS!!!
 
Not worthless, just not as stressed as it could be. It's more important to have a FLUID run, that one with gnarly tricks. Actually, gnarliness has no place in moguls, because it interferes with the overall presentation and smoothness.
 
Double Front or Double Back??? are you fucking retarded? there is no way they could dub anything but dub 540 and dub 360
 
the womens moguls event was not even correct judged! Kari Traa did a d-spin 7 and a backflip, while the american girl did a striagt 3 and backflip. unfair.
 
and if you all say that the airs don't mean much, then how come johnny's "dinnerho" was so talked up...personally, from time to time, I find the sport quite hypocrytical..
 
bet half these kids cant even ski a mogul line.. for someone to say switch 1440 and switch last line is retarded and ignorant. 1. theres no way to come into the last jump switch with enough speed. 2. the jump isnt 65ft. 3.knees dont bend that way.

for the person who said airs dont matter... its 25% of your score.. do the math.. that 1/4 of your final score.. if you dont do high end tricks.. that will suffer and will dock you like 10points. thus makin it so you can only get 30 of 40..
 
Mens Moguls that I saw was pretty neat, 7s, cork 7s and some sort of side-flip deal (I dunno what its called) Women's moguls though, my godddd that was boring. Nothing but backflips and 360s. Ugh.
 
i saw some guy do a 540 but he did a little butter before the jump n landed regular. It looked good but didn't score well
 
i would just like to point out that whenever fireunderwater posts she always has something educated and worth while to say, and i admire that.
 
i was really impressed by the women doing cork 7's this year...i think i even saw a rightside cork 7 but that may just be her naturual spinning direction...either way....dope....they need to do slopestyle with that cork 7
