Respect to Alex for going for style rather than spin to win
Fr (he was going more for creativity) and if he would've landed that dub 14 to knuckle, that would've been sick
no, no respect
@@roanaya2598 why?
@@carstenb23 its a gimmick
@@roanaya2598 huh
Those 2160’s though!🙌🏼
we want that insanity at rwlly land !!
The fact that Birk can triple on BOTH Skis and a Snowboard is peak extreme.
U mean matej?
@@mendellang8379 they both can lol
Yeah, and he's got that forward triple 18 in the bag as well. Can't wait for him to do forward triple 1980 and stomp that switch triple 2160
@@johanfoss641 can’t wait for the judges to stop criminally underscoring him too lol
@@mendellang8379 I meant birk. I respectfully have to disagree to this one. I mean last comp I think the rules were ambiguous to not give two separate scores for dub 19 and trip 19. I think the dub 19 this year didn’t receive high score cause he fell after the landing. And the quad wasn’t really a quad
Ed’s first run was the coolest rotation combo I’ve ever seen
Mac's 2160 was PERFECT. Insanely difficult AND stylish.
A Hall is a g for trying to incorporate the un-spin into big air comps. Guess the judges weren’t ready for it yet this year ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Style has to support technical difficulty. You could see it the other way around, but you need both.
@@midi510it’s pretty debatable that the spin to win tricks have no style, so at least to the judges they really don’t need both. Despite X Games being all about “expression” their scoring has always been about checking boxes and never about “style.”
@@joemarais7683
A really basic way to score would be to give a score (like 1 - 10) for difficulty and one for style, then multiply them. Say you get an 8 for style and a 9 for difficulty. Total would be 72. To avoid a lot of ties, you could allow tenths, like a 7.6 or whatever.
If I consider a gnarly line or cliff drop, I factor the likelihood of something going wrong with the severity of the consequences. I don't give it a number, but the concept is there. High probability of something going wrong in conjunction with severe consequences, factor the necessity for a high reward. (This example is for the factoring process only.) If I can imagine it all going well and I know I have the ability to pull it off, I'll go for it. If I can't see it happening in my mind, I won't do it.
I used to compete and have judged the IFSA NA circuit many years ago and don't envy judges in the least.
Mad respect to Alex for this, I totally agree.
But I also had the feeling that Alex didn't manage to perform what he actually wanted to show.
I imagine butter-frontflips after landing from the knuckle, Alex definitely has that down.
Unfortunately it seemed as if he didn't find the sweet spot in the speed for the approach.
That's why I don't think the judges' decision was that wrong.
Gotta love Alex for going stylish rather than spin to win. I mean a variation of both pretty big spins and mega style (henny or elias syrjä) is what i love and i hope to see them again here. Those 2160 were sick and clean but next year if that same trick is gonna win and someone is throwing some insane stylish smaller rotations im gonna be pissed.
Well deserved by Mac, fighting for the win and putting down that perfect 2160 with a hard grab held all the way. So impressive from everyone.
antoine took that fall like a champ yeeeeesh
When I 1st watched the X games, it was the 900 that was the crazy trick. Now, these athletes are doing 2160s. 😱🤯
Is there any room left to spin more than a 2160 and still land it? They are nearly landing at the very bottom.
Bigger jump 🤷🏻♂️
this is the best big air comp since henrik harlaut did the NB Triple Cork
That 2160s is insane
seems like all the haters finally got to A Hall always calling him a try hard and dissing his win last year and he finally just gave up...
I did not think it was possible to grab and stomp a forward 2160 as well as Mac did.
Now, I can imagine 2340s as well...
He had enough air for at least one more 180. 🤯
They are doing 2160 and i can't even do a clean 360... Maximum Respect.
Amazing competition, such high level skiers 🔥 would have been the cherry on top if Henrik was competing
These guys are fearless
from a snowboarder, this competition was way more intense than snowboard big air this year.
What a night! Holyy!
As a steep’s player, I don't understand anything about the sport, but I like to watch this... It's relaxing 😂😂
Where was Henrik?
Huge styley stuff.
Im 4 riders in, its MASSIVE
Sxx on tour was a realitic game finally 😅
Alex won it for me off the bat
I laughed so hard that he did a cork 180 what a baller
Which skis does matej use?
After last year´s event I thought that it couldn´t get any beter. Now I know I was wrong...
彼は、誰が観ても並外れてるよ🎉
おめでとう
You got that R-Willy
Was that TJ Schiller at 19:13?
How do they not have people ready to bring skis down when guys lose them? Seems ridiculous to me...
fr
track name plz at 42:00
Did Henrik attempt to qualify for Big air this year?
yeah i wanna know
nop he was injured
8:41 Such a shame the best trick in the whole contest has a glitch in the footage at a key time.
where henny at?
@@xxliam_030xx3 You're talking about one of the best to ever do it, someone with more talent in his little toe than you have in your whole body. Put some respect on his name.
@@xxliam_030xx3
He has broken thumb mfkr
Zeb was SOOOOOO STOOOOOOONED lol
idk why tom insists on saying that Matej is doing a quad... its quite obviously not one 🤣
yeah no it aint. commentators often really generous on what a 'cork' actually is
That’s why the judges don’t like it, quads what he’s going for
Honestly. And when Hiroto Ogiwara landed the first bs 2160 last year, people were calling it a quint cork. Smh
you probably don't know what cork is. if it's not perfectly upright it's cork. no matter how slightly off axis it is. Tom Wallisch probably knows a bit more than you do about freeski.
Yeah it was a triple
These guys are absolute monsters but if Japan started to get into skiing then this division would be next level insanity
No henrik?
broken thumb might effect his ability to grab. Maybe risks injury if he falls could be either
Wheres Andri?
Poles should be mandatory.
Why?
@@ddandymann because no poles is for 5 year olds.
@@yulmp2 What sort of argument is that? If you want something to be a rule you should have a strong rational basis for it not just, 'I like poles so therefor everyone should use poles', because that sort of flimsy logic really is for 5 year olds.
first
Just another who can spin the most competition.
nah didn’t like the way alex went knucklehuck with big air..
he gave up because of all the hate he's got
@@Dangerstophe so he basically protested the contest?
Style > numbers
@@ozzy9708 basically yeah
@@Iprodeltaelite it wasn’t even stylish
Ooh look…a red Bull athlete in first place…🙄
Tom Wallish is the worst commentator! He doesn’t know what any of the tricks are called and it’s painful to listen to! You need to hire Steepsteep!
Spin to win getting old. Terriault had the 🥶 est tricks
Skiers are such fruitcakes.
