The judges did their job, dont hate on them. Simon Dumont missed some grabs and had way too bad landing on his switch double. Kevin Rolland had a solid run with solid grabs and landings. He was safing it out while the others tried to whip him off the top spot by trying switch doubles that seemed to be a speed issue problem. Maybe because the weather wasnt that good. Im sick of people complaining about the judging, it was allright. I think the way to beat Kevin Rolland is to land a perfect switch double. But all props to Rolland, he is doing what he knows best.
 
rolland should have done it like tanner a few years back, when he was on top and knew he got gold. not another robot run, besides the rightside double
 
You could just see the dissapointment on Dumont's face at the bottom of the 3rd run. Missing the podium like that is harsh. It never really seem to work for Simon. I hope he will come back stronger at the next pipe contest, he deserves it. He's iconic for the sport and has really been around for along time, it's guys like him that pushes skiing and makes it what it is. Creds to Rolland for laying it down on home-soil, so consistent, that 1st run proved to be the winning one. He just keeps on winning. I'm so stoked for tomorrows slopestyle final, the contest has been sick so far, too bad with the weather though.
