@Wes top 8. So Roope’s out, which to our mind is a massive injustice whichever way you cut it.

So is it top 10 that go through to the finals? Not clear from above?

Bit tough on JN though. Leave nothing in the locker next time

I have to agree with T-moose it wasnt as smooth as Torstein but worth a hell load more points than he got! Bullshit.

I think the comms team’s attitude towards Jamie says it all really, they don’t even bother to introduce him until after his 2nd rail! Love the crowd’s “ohhhs” and “ahhhs” for Roope, its like he set off fireworks from his tail.

Hey, things don’t always go as planned. You’ve gotta suck it up and learn from the experience to make sure that next time will be better. With the judging you’ll never know others reasons and expectations on a run. All you can ever do is your best. Keep it up Jamie :)

its always shitty to hear about poor judging. these judges are trained and know what they are doing for the most part so Im just curious how this can happen. I know SLS was supposed to fix problems like this but even that doesnt work all that good. Contests have become a major part of snowboarding so its about time things got more legit. And Im out, sorry about the bullshit Jamie, your still a BOSS

First of all jamie does a bs9 not a bs12. Second of all torsteins run are so much more flowy than jamie’s. Sure enough, jamie should have gotten a much higher score, but you can’t compare that kid to torstein.
