ok, I don't follow the PWT very close but they had it on tv so of course I watched it. Whomever was calling tricks was a complete dumbas$. This guy had no clue what anything was. He was calling inverts, spins and calling spins, inverts. Has anyone else seen this?

it was the malibu open i think your talking about. i was watching it too and he was just naming the run's tricks, he was calling the next trick they did. yeah alot of it did seem further off though. but at least these guys know the names. during the x games chad did a slim chance and the commentator said "he looked like he went a little too off axis on that spin" and the other guy corrected him saying it was some type of mobe he hadn't seen.

any one notice soven's runs getting really predictiable
not in order
dum dum
whirly 5
skeezer 5
ect.

midwest wake, everyone's runs are already predictable.

I caught it too on fusion tv along with the double or nothing double up contest and I was trying to tape it but when everything was over I went to watch it to see if it worked and not to my surprise it didnt work. Yea the comentators were off on the malibu open for sure, biggest mistake that I first started noticing it was (I forgot who was riding it was either gator or some one else) but the guy said that he did an o/a 180 but it was like a regular 3. I missed the freaking x games tho bcuz my cuz got married at the same time soo... Confused

scott a, i know everyone's runs are predictiable already but i've only seen soven ride in three comps and he's hit those in everysingle one with almost the same line.

Joey1027, you missed nothing in the x games.
