dang he literally landed that shit sideways. Give him best save award because I would've taken a dirt nap. Crazy how after this nobody is even remotely impressed with a cork 720 bar spin (I know he did it at district ride a while back, but still).
Shout outs to Rheeder for landing that back double whip as straight as R-Dog lands whip off whips.
Nah sketchy af twister and perfectly stomped flip double whip take the cake for me. Plus brandons "cork" 7 bar was very close to just being a regular 720 and he also didn't have the greatest of landings
I don't think fluidity is the only reason Nicholi didn't score higher. If anything, people should look at his score as: even with a handful of sketchy ass landings and a popped tire, and outside of his 3 big tricks (twister, cork 7, cash) the rest was pretty underwhelming, he was STILL able to score 93. That, in my opinion, is impressive and shows that judges are likely highly impressed with that Twister because he still podium'd. I've got no doubt everyone in that judging tent went hooooly shit when that twister happened.
I don't know for sure but I saw him sitting down holding his arm to his chest so I'm think he may have hurt it which sucks cause I was really looking forward to seeing him ride
fast plant 3 off the stepdown.sick.. rogatkin won that hands down in my eyes. he had some sketchiness, but hell spinning a 1080(i refuse to call it a twister, what a dumb name) he should get a bonus point for not dying on that landing haha

IDK why most people think that crankworx is like a best trick.
