At first i was gonna say i thought it was fair judging but i looked at it again and i'm going with semenuk. In my opinion though this is why i'm going with semenuk a Tailwhip is harder than a backflip thats what it comes down too. Their runs are very alike if you watch both at the same time.

Alot of people like backflips but i find a tailwhip is higher on the degree of difficulty. In my opinion though.

indeed pauls front flip was sick. we were in the airdome on thursday when he was practicing them and he landed them clean every time. mccauls front flip was amazing too but not quite as clean. i also agree that semenuk got robbed of the win. he 3-barspun in the first drop to a flip whip after.. that is very difficult aswell.. either way it was an amazing comp

I can see why youd think that, but watts had the 360 tailwhip off the first to give him the advantage,

i actually think mccul should have been 2nd, rediculous judging putting him in 5th, he had a front flip and a superflip in his run

I think they should have bumped Semenuk even just .25 over Watts. Lets not forget Brandon did an opposite three off the SRAM drop, and spun the mavic dish huge. Also if they would have done this, it probably would have forced Watts to do the flip whip off the Kokanee kicker. So he still probably would have won, but it would have been a better show, which is what it's all about. That victory run was annoying and anti-climatic.
