Last year the middle or the course did seem a bit boring, cant wait to see what changes they made this year. Theres gonna be some really good riding going down this year now that most of them have a feel for this type of contest from last year.

As far as I know, no. They're probably release little teaser vids on youtube, but you'll have to wait until broadcast day to see the full event. Even then some of the POV vids they release after broadcast day are better to watch. They cut out a lot of runs last year!

No live bro. Baldface is in the middle of nowhere. No cell phones, barely internet. It may or may not be filmed tomorrow. They have a six day window fit weather, but looking outside my window its blue bird today.

Its been way too long. The last huge snow fall was end of December, but January had a few 7-15cm days. The slope they ride is left untouched until film day though.

Yeah I wasn't really happy with how they did it last year. They just packaged it up like it was just another DEW Tour/X-Gaymes/ETC... contest. Like, you have this "contest" being hailed as the never-before-seen, next greatest thing of all time, and then you box it up and package it, into what? A two hour broadcast for the masses brought to you by the latest caffeine riddled, sugar-laden energy drink by Redbull, and then don't show every rider's runs, you get little to no back story?!?

I really thought it would have had a more behind the scenes presentation like, "you're part of the action" type of feel. Because 99.99% of the people watching it will: A) never ride anything like that, B) Never see this collection of riders in person or at any other contest, and C) Never get to go to Baldface.

It just sucks this thing gets aired a good month after it's already over. That's just weak.
