Agreed. It is simply not feasible for a qualifying tour to go to only the best places, especially when it is supposed to be catering to the ams with little or no income/sponsorship. Therefore the tour must be designed around the competitors, not the other way around. in surfing, the CT has 10 events(i think) and the QS has about 50 or so. this would work well in skiing because it would let athletes from everywhere have a fair go, not just the ones near sick parks.
