@chillroom348 haha ;) no of course not. But the tricks they are throwing down are all looking very similar, and this makes this whole contest for my a little boring. I think you should honor skiers like casabon more, because most people are more impressed in throwing down a creative more stylish trick.

@konaever But throwing a trick that is different just to be different won't help you win. Budapest is a long way to travel just to throw something different and lose. This was a big air, 3 runs 2 different tricks. I think you are confusing what you will get from a comp video with what you want in a video segment. If you want people to throw loads of different tricks all the time then you will have to write the rule book on what each rotation and grab in its varying combination is worth.

the direction where it should go to.... youtube.com/watch?NR=1&v=bn6ID­23WCrc&feature=fvwp

@nflfabfonz hm don't know what you mean...maybe you can post a link of what you mean...

[nflfabfonz]

@konaever yeah but Casbon and Harlaut have a lot of bad landings..like REALLY sketchy landings. So while their style is creative and interesting, a lot of times their landings aren't up to par for contests

[konaever]

Of course you should make a rule book with points for each trick! I do not think many riders can do a butter trick on a kicker like casabon or harlaut do. Also you should rate the landings higher. Contests can not just go on this way or it's ending up in old school...i think ;)

@konaever i bet you throw your dub 14's with more cork in them ;)
