X games pipe 2004, wow 3 years makes a big difference

I'd sorta forgotten that Jon kills it in the pipe. The stuff from '04 wasn't as technical as '07, but pretty beautiful nonetheless.
 
fuck me dumont got some air. when they stopped it on his first hit, that was huge, not nearly as tech tho, shows where skiing is going and how much it has progressed.

tanner looks like a blonde emo there.
 
jon should have won, his run was flawless and extrememly technical. and dave was sick too, the only guy doing a 10, but alass the binding release. it seems the 5 has replaced the flair as the go-to trick, and i miss jons picture pirfect flatspins in the pipe.
 
i donno amplitude hasnt changed much but people are getting way more tech and i havnt seen ANYONE do a safety recently in pipe which i am very thankful for.
 
tanner did one last year, first hit (whereas simon did truck, and about 5 feethigher), and i think he did one this year too.
 
how about you look at the pipe deals in '03...now THAT will make you notice the "progression" it was almost pathetic how small they were going then compared to now.
 
crichton's run in 2003 would have won the x-games every year after, until this year. if his ski hadn't released.
 
except for candide and cr, they were killing it. if you look at the 02 pipe, it was pretty pathetic, if it wasn't for jon that year, pipe might have been dropped like snowblading and modified shovel racing.
 
I miss those Jon-flairs where he goes a good 30 feet down the pipe, sooo much distance. I also LOVED those skis, the cork 9 tail with mad trixx was money.
 
yeah for sure, i mean now there throwing like switch 10's and 12's in pipe! so insane

“I sware, I will quit masturbating to be able to ski!”
 
anyone remember when mike douglas said "They call that the truckdriver, becuase when he grabs his skis it looks like hes driving a big truck"

and again^why isnt that kids sig grey??
 
How bout that switch unatural 720 Cusson honky donked out back in 1999? striped pants were way before their time.
 
i like how tanners like, i don't think you're going to see consistant 20 foot airs like that again..
