I would have been perfectly OK if that was called winning run. Love that he rolls in with a manual and ends with a BANGER

LEMOINE HARNESSING HIS INNER TIMO!!! THAT SEND BETTER HAVE A BEST TRICK ASSOCIATED WITH IT!!!

Surprised everyone is talking about Lemoine and not Bringer also. Glad he got 2nd but IMO it was a better run with more variety than Emil

That gap by Lemoine was outstanding, out of nowhere

I just don’t understand why they would show us the practice jump before his run. Just imagine the excitement seeing him pedal to the on off box and thinking, wtf ist this guy doing? No he wouldn’t dare! No he wouldn’t! WTF did i just watch?

@prevail: They might've thought he wasn't going to go for the gap so they showed it first

you said it right. we already know who will win in every slopestyle run which takes out all the excitement. emil did another great run full of crazy tricks he could only do but tomas lemoine was the man of the day. tomas lemoine saved slopestyle.

Crowd cheering should be taken in consideration. When Lemoine hit that gap the whole crowd went bananas and cheered for more than 30 seconds. I was there, I could feel the energy.
I don’t wan’t to diss Emil, his run was mad. Really top notch but the crowd was not that excited as we were in Lemoine’s run.

Anyways props to all the riders and the podium guys, the tricks and jumps were nasty.

Lemoine with one of the greatest slopestyle moments of all time. Shades of Semenuk gapping the on-off at Crankworx Colorado (or Colorado Freeride Fest? I forget which year it switched over) back in the day.

Since we are talking about back in the day. Let’s go 18 years back to the og: www.youtube.com/watch?v=iWq81o3PA6E

Is there a peoples choice award? Lemoine deserves to win something for those runs!

Despite lots of crashes and blown tires, I felt like that was one of the better slope style shows in a while. The field has some unique riders with a variety of styles. Good stuff.

Having the biggest balls should trump all other criteria. Lemoine all day.

Lemoine blasting to the STRATOSphere... Thank you Tomas for proper entertainment.

OPD351 (Aug 14, 2022 at 15:13)

problem is emil is not exciting to watch his degree of difficulty is so high but they're not high consequence maneuvers with little innovation other then turning the other way

Rafmiller (Aug 15, 2022 at 16:36)

Doing opposite tricks is an extremely high consequence. The only reason it's not exciting is that Emil does it so well.

hodges (Aug 13, 2022 at 20:22)

Are people still getting ‘robbed’ these days?

HeatedRotor FL (Aug 13, 2022 at 20:53)

people are getting judged by the rules.

SirWonky (Aug 13, 2022 at 21:20)

If you notice - they never mention who the judges are anymore for ANY of these judged events.

fatfingur (Aug 13, 2022 at 22:50)

if emil loses on a complete run it would be robbery. emil should already stop competing. nobody on earth can actually beat him.

Dmaxwell (Aug 13, 2022 at 20:31)

The opposites done by Emil was unreal

kimbackerlux (Aug 14, 2022 at 9:25)

For me this was the best Joyride final every, so damn stoked on the new course and the riders field. Mad props to huppi too, what a run. Lemoine is a legend. I rellay love this sport.

Colinofthewoods (Aug 14, 2022 at 9:29)

Big fan of Bringers run , personal preference bit it I’ll take flips over spins from a viewer perspective . So pumped for Lemoine too , what a great event

so sick seeing the level these guys perform but does anybody else feel vague disappointment at this event? World cups feel way more exciting than slopestyle these days

redcorn (Aug 13, 2022 at 20:09)

What?

fatfingur (Aug 13, 2022 at 20:14)

In a way, yeah. It has been always Emil taking all the wins. So the excitement isn't there anymore because you already know who is going to win. With that kind of talent, no one will be able to beat him. Absolutely no one can even get close to him. He even won with an injured wrist. That is just beyond human capability. It could have been another slopestyle event if not for Lemoines huge gap jump. That was a crowd pleaser!

If Nicholi got a run down, or if fedko improved run 2, or if godziek got his run, this comp would have been epic. But unfortunately nobody forced Emil to do a second run. Lemoine’s send will be the thing in the highlight reels for the next ten years tho !! Epic

j-t-g FL (Aug 13, 2022 at 20:21)

I'd say I agree with you except I'm pretty sure its just because I'm getting older lol.

singletrackjamaica FL (Aug 13, 2022 at 20:37)

I agree that WC DH is generally way more exciting than slopestyle, even with the less than perfect coverage. But I enjoyed this one. I think it would have been close if there weren't so many incomplete runs.
