I'm glad you know exactly what is going through the judges minds as they are cheering.
I can't think of another sport in the world where a judging panel is cheering for athletes they are judging in real time. Can you?
Regardless of whose runs won and didn't win, that is some bush league bullshit that makes a joke of the judges and reflects badly on the sport.
One could make an argument for Zink winning, I have no problem with that but no way in hell van steenbergen should have placed higher for his caveman than the guy who frontflipped the canyon gap for the first time ever.

you know I'm starting to take professional freeride mountainbiking far less seriously now....
