Figured I'd start a thread for everything going on this weekend. Free to watch on XGames.com:

X games is in my opinion the most well rounded event in freestyle skiing today. Not just because they have snowboarding lets ignore that but just because of how they reward creativity and style way better than any world cup does, and how many cool events they have. I feel like riders in x games can do what they want, causing the sport to be pushed in the right direction (quad 2160 = no, dub griselda = yes)
 
Can you replay on there? I work nights but always trying to catch the xgames.

Or will they upload to youtube after like usual?

Only shitty thing is they also post gold silver bronze spoilers along with it. But I enjoy watching. I actually haven't even seen the full course this year.

Curious what a live slvsh game would look like. I’m sure it’ll feel like a more interesting rail jam

rail jam with a plot i guess, would def be a sick experience just to see the best skiers in the world challenge each other

I’m imagining the first round like nfl redzone where it flips between games while the other hikes
 
Less go. I live in the eu so that means every event is in the night. Kind of sucks cause i really would like to watch them.
 
I am so beyond excited for superpipe Sunday, obviously stoked for the other events but the pipe lineup is so fucking fun this year

I work nights and have usually watched them after. Just gotta try to avoid the spoilers

Pretty disappointed in how unpopular the superpipe option in the poll was. I love watching pros in a pipe it's more insane to me than anything else

On the YouTube stream they mentioned probably no matej in big air and did not elaborate at all

He’s not the big air roster now, still on knuckle huck though

I've been waiting for Matej in big air, such a disappointment but that's the way it goes.

Why tf were there dubs being thrown in the style round, pretty much given that ya need to do something out of the ordinary.

They're kind of brutal on the scores.

Thinking the same thing although I’m a bit underwhelmed with a lot of what’s happening compared to other years. But some of these stomped unique tricks are getting brutalized on the scores
 
A Hall prolly shoulda won big air imo. Anyone else see the xgames npc guy saying Ws in the chat over and over? I wish it wasn’t so cringe but at least Tom and woodsy are cool
 
Not the most exciting big air, but nice to see the style aspect being more evident. Troy seems like a real peach of a person.
 
Big air was seriously lacking without folks like Henrik, Matej, Edjoy etc. switch Tail butters were arguably the most standout but didn’t seem to hold the weight that nose butters did in previous years
 
lowkey triggered so they spend 20 minutes meatriding chloe kim and start big air 25min late but cant even be bothered to show the fucking podiun for the big air like the fuck
