X-Games 11 - Who will drop in switch?

[mdvorak]

Ive seen a certain "Big Name" skier doing sw 7's like 15ft out first hit at Park City everyday.

 

[R.Fahey]

dropping in full fledged switch would be stupid. The judges don't care about how you drop in I don't think. Mostly what happens when you get to the walls, and in the air, and landing. What Hatveit did was cooler anyway.

 

[hendrik.]

shut up ed.

 

[Swick825]

ya coulda swore somebody did it... maybe even a few people. didnt laurent favre do it?

tanner with a sw 7

 

[Ahmets_Brother]

well think about it, why would you wanna ski in/drop in switch? when i dropin i kinda jump up then land right at the top of the wall to get maximum pump. if you ski in forward then pop a 90 you can pump more and go bigger.

i would rather see a huge first hit and a switch second hit

i saw tanner personally drop in switch and do a cork 10 first hit in the pipe at park city last week

 

[i+am+ghetto]

i saw candide @laax 3weeks ago practising... i don´t think he will do it @the x-games he just didn´t get much air(even that was high but it just won´t be enough for gold)...

but seriiously.. seing him skiing was just amazin..

 

[Bees_Knees]

i cant wait to see tanner hit the pipe switch

 

[ecsm.]

haviate has done it and will do it agagin

 

[RudyGarmisch]

Candide is saving himself. He can go big, trust me. Last X-games he injured himself in practice, so he wont be bringing out his A-game until the actual event. But trust me. Candide = Huge.

 

[A@ron]

im not sure who will drop in but i bet tanner in the middle of his run will hit switch.

 

[DaysToCome]

did u miss last years x where andreas dropped in switch and in practice candide was pretty much everyone can do it

 

[DaysToCome]

thats pretty much the same thing cept you cant get as much speed so why would you do it

 

[RudyGarmisch]

Its more technical and would look pretty cool in my opinion. I've never seen anyone even try it as well.

 

[BFFset.]

yeah thats what i was thinking

 

[sim]

I used to be able to do them.

 

[BRMN]

tanner was @ pc going switch on his first hit

 

[BobYohan]

xgames is a tv show, and the judging will always encourage max amplitude because big air is more exxxtreme than technicality. i love to see innovative switch shit in the pipe but xgames just isnt the right venue for it.

 

[oiECSoi]

x gayyyyyymes

 

[Fitz.]

i think there will be quite a few droping swithc its wat people wanna see

 

[kolekaine]
