Halldor as usual trowing the most stylish, unique tricks. Would way rather see his style of riding in the finals than a triple cork fest but I guess they have a place in the sport too.
That was a gnarly bail he had though I honestly think he might have been trying a quad flip:dunno: I really hope he isnt seriously injured, hate to see that kind of stuff
I agree, the whole "spin to win" thing that most people do gets old. I thought the tricks Halldor was trying were more creative and like a breath of fresh air to the x games.:thumbsup:
i feel the same way as u guys. Halldor had some smoth tricks.
is it me or is this skiing superpipe lame? every trick looks the same. i still enjoy watching it but its nothing like boarding.
Man, that Big Air contest looked like an excellent way to tenderise yourself.
Was 18 min of guys hucking their bodies into tricks that weren't quite dialled yet, then eating it and getting back up to huck themselves off the jump again. They're definitely feeling that tomorrow.
That said, that switch back triple cork from Torstein was kinda crazy.
I just hope McMorris still has the triples dialed in for tomorrow.
While he was wrecking off a 100(?not sure?) kicker Shaun was in an ice bath, litterally, !
Sandbech has to feel like a fucking idiot. Tried to sit out the final round like a boss thinking he had the thing on lock and ended up in 3rd after the last two jumps.
What do you want him to do? He pulled his 2 biggest jumps and had already sent it for 18 min.
FYI, 18 min is a really long time to be hucking yourself off a big air jump repeatedly.
Go send yourself off a huge icy jump and crash repeatedly for 18 min and see how keen you are to keep doing it. It's easy to sit at home and judge until you realize the toll those crashes take on you.
Any one know of any good news about Halldor?
I looked him up on the news section of Google and not much showed up, only stuff from 11 hours ago, which is about the time he wrecked.
I'm sure it's not that bad but still, anyone know??
"knocked out...like a king" haha thank god halldor's alright/functioning...I've been procrastinating to his vids on youtube all year so far and I don't know if I'm ready to be productive again
speaking of which does anyone have a link to the lobster flip he pulled? I still haven't seen it and I missed the event...
