Crichton!!! I hate the way GT rides pipe, I dunno why. Maybe it's because of the way he came in 2nd at the USFO, his first hit was big, but he spun without a grab, and his hands up by his throat, and I just didn't like it. Crichton throws down hard, did he go as big as last year?

And Hibbert would have been top 3 last year if he hadn't crashed as extremely hard as possible. He decked from like 15-18 feet out.

-Teddy
 
It might have been the worst half pipe comp of all time. It was foggy as shit, couldn't see from one hit to the next.

What they forgot to tell you was Greg won with a THREE HIT run, when others like Amba were doing 6 plus hits. there was no second and third, it was a four way tie or somthing gay like that.

worst comp ever.

 
Any website?

sounds like quite the shitbag of a comp

changing the stereotype of skiiers one jib at a time

skiing is just like sex. when its good, its goooooood. and when its not so good, its still pretty good.

im tired of the mother fucking jacket!

a bar of soap?

haha thats right, got you good fucker!
 
I am surprised that turpin wasnt there, he is one of the most progressive pipists, also that woods wasnt there, cause he is becoming quickly one of the best.

but hell yeah, go mad ontarians

sounds shitty. I'm not big on GT either. never liked his style, but I havn't seen this comp, so he may have ripped it up

thats kind of gay that he won with a 3 hit run

i was just there, gt did 2 corked 1260's in one run and he was wearing a fucking 80's neon onepiece ski suit, the man is my idol haha

 
yah he's pretty much the man

anyone else se him in the bump and jump comp with tanner, evan, and a few racers? on the mogul run (first jump was rail, 2nd was mogul jump, 3rd was table) did a worm turn out of the start, daffy off teh rail, and hit up old school the whole way down. fucking best run I've ever seen.

i dont understand people. The pipe comp was sick, it was a little foggy but you could still see. people were throwing down hard with super stylie tricks. dumont owned the pipe.

dumont could win so many pipe comps ( like the x-games) if he just landed one of his runs. like not that he isnt god, he just had a bad day. but now hes doing awesome.

someone post pics of simons 25 foot cork

me: what the hell is that?

sister:its a boat u dumbass

me:well what the fuck do they nedd it for? the shitheads
 
hibbert's always been a good pipe skier... just seams to have troubles landing... one of the few pro skiers I see sporting a helmet all the time.

sucks that the comp wasn't as good this year (from the sounds of it)... last year was so amazing (i was so damn burnt at the end of the day last year)

good quotes from Donny Darko

Donnie: You are such a fuckass!

Elizabeth: Did you just call me a fuckass? You can go suck a fuck!!

Donnie: Oh really, and how does one suck a fuck?

Donnie: First of all, Papa Smurf didn't create Smurfette. Gargamel did. She was sent in as Gargamel's evil spy with the intention of destroying the Smurf village, but the overwhelming goodness of the Smurf way of life transformed her. And as for the whole gang-bang scenario, it just couldn't happen. Smurfs are asexual. They don't even have reproductive organs under those little white pants. That's what's so illogical, you know, about being a Smurf. What's the point of living if you don't have a dick?

 
Pipe was a whiteout so couldn't be assed to watch it...Big air last night was sweet, jon olsson is super smooth...

 
what did jon and tanner throw !?!?!?!?!?!?!

Dude, you just touched Kristy Boner's Whoo-Who's........Shibby!!!!!!!!!!!!!
 
Pros dont wear helmets cause 95% of the time they dont land on there heads, they land a little off and catch a edge, or fall back resulting in injurys that dont effect your head soo helmets are pointless...

STEEZ RiDeRs
 
levin you must not of been there cause this comp was off the hook, altho the weather could have been better, the pros were still going massive, anbd the super hit weas like anything anyones ever seen with dumont going like 20 feet out of the pipe, i have some quality footage ill be posting when i get back to ottawa, till then take it easy...

What the hell were they doing with a car on the moon?... havent they gone far enough?
 
youre retarded to say that helmets are pointless, cause if you fall a little on edge off of a big jump you could get whipped around and then smash your head on the ground and get a concussion, or if the jumps landing is near the woods you could end up there and smash into a tree. and hibbert has to wear a helmet cause if he doesnt and he hits his head again, he'll prabably get brain damage depending on how bad the crash is

 
D-Spin, thats exactly how I landed and fell on a TINY hip doing a simple trick i've done hundreds of times. I had a helmet on and i STILL lost about 3 months worth of memories... I don't know if I'd be able to wipe my own ass if I didnt have a helmet on then.

yah but think about it, pros go liek 40 x bigger then us so they would just be screwed over anyway... and hahah by the way i rember that day... probley better then you do

STEEZ RiDeRs
 
they do go a hell of alot bigger than most of us, but imagine how much better off they would be if they actually wore helmets, there was that one guy in Strike 3 that tried to hit the hip straight on at super park, and missed the landing, then he died, dont know if he was wearing a helmet or not, but it was pretty funny

 
GT should've been wearing a pink leotard instead of his powder suit because that's how gay his 1260 looked. i still give him props for landing TWO of them in one run though

$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$

well think about it, if candide landed directly on his head over the giant hip would a hemlet have done any good at all?

STEEZ RiDeRs
 
i got an idea, why dont we stop fucking caring about how many times i guys spins, and care more about doing the pipe switch! I love turpins progression, even if he fell, give him some fucking props

yeah okay.... to sort everything out...

GT's 1260 was kinda butt... but still super sick, as was his neon yellow suit.

Dumont owned the pipe, he was getting over 20 feet out, and soooo smooth.

Crighton was crazy good, and John Sim's opposite mutes were soo stylie. Turpin is dope... and his switch hits were crazy, but he doesn't get the credit he desevres. oh, and hibert was dope too.

^^^Drop into the Pipe and Smoke it^^^
 
The comp was definitely not a complete waste, as there was some very progressive stuff being thrown down (i.e., Turpin's fakie run and Crichton's fakie 9). The best skiers in the world (Olsson, Hall, Crichton, Turpin, Woods, etc.) definitely showed up and gave their all, but unfortunately the judging was lacking, to say the least.

First, the judges used a modified format because they couldn't see the whole pipe from the bottom due to fog. So instead they have three sections with a couple of judges working each section, and head judge Loubek at the bottom (where he can't see a thing, but still OK's/changes the scores!). What they should have done was put them ALL in the middle of the pipe where they could see above and below, and hence the whole pipe.

Second, GT should not have won under any circumstances. You could very easily argue he shouldn't have been on the podium, either. How does someone who throws an unstylie 1260, followed by an unstylie straight air, followed by another unstylie 9 win the whole event when guys like Turpin, Crichton, Hibbert, Symms and others did highly technical and stylish runs with more than 3 hits??? A 1260 is a great move for the best hit comp, but NOT to win a WHOLE pipe comp. Unfotunately, the message to all the kids coming out of this result is that you can win a pipe event as being a one-hit-wonder. Is that the message we want judges sending at the World Skiing Invitational? Hell no.

Finally, what should be done about this? First off, don't use judges like Loubek who have a track record of poor performance. Get some current riders or ex riders who actually KNOW what style is and how to judge a whole pipe run. The whole thing would have been fine had someone like Deschenaux been the head judge. Even the 12 year olds watching the comp would have done a better job -- they're the ones that truly know what style is and what deserves to win. And second, comps should take the riders' opinions into account, not the judges. We can't have judges saying crap like 'you HAVE to go big to win' when the pipe is unsafe for going big. The judges should sit down and listen to the athletes before the event as to how they would like it judged. This obviously won't work for small local events, but at the WSI or X-Games it is key.
