I dig it for sure, but the past couple of years this shit has just turned into the gymnastics. I used to love the pipe but its like watching a tumbling class. All the runs look pretty similar, doing as many flips and spin as possible.

Slope style is at least a little technical, but i fucking missed that.

The progression of all so called "extreme" sports is amazing.

There is at least 1 new trick each event. In the big air skiing a dude did a fucking 1620.

I skated pipe a lot in the 90's and I remember the first time I did a hand plant I thought I was the shit.
