vibes out to james mcskimming, made me feel ill hearing the heli come into the madical centre.....very rad racing though....a shame brian went down in the final....
What happened to James? I've never met him, but used to know his dad Rob well. Judging by his results, the kid's been riding out of his gourd lately.

re. james, I showed up just after he had pretty much rode/landed straight into the face of a jump...apparently he was siezuring when they got to him....everyone was pretty shaken up by it....I haven't heard anything since last night, probably get an update this morning. I really feel for James and his family, Rob (his dad) is a stand up guy and helped me out after my accident last year, donating prizes to a fundraiser we had and getting me a discounted pass late in the season when I got riding again.....we all have fun riding, but **** like this is scary....like some friends said, and his results have showed it over the week, he has been riding super fast, and was when this happened....thoughts and prayers go out to the mcskimming's.....

I turned on the live coverage of the slopestyle, but the Olympic coverage of anorexic girls running a very long distance received more of my attention.

Slopestyle has never been very impressive to me.

OK that was the first huck fest that actually interested me. Smaller jumps so they could go off. Double back on the gap up top was crazy, so was the flip whip on the drop.
