Will the women's half pipe be worth staying up for? I only want to see Paulina Ligoska (spelling?), really.

I dont understand why they run the Womens after the Mens (ok maybe it's a conditions thing??).... but it seems such an anti-climax after the stubidly big air that Ginger was getting last night??

They should make it into a sport of it's own. I would pay good money to watch that.

Castellet, or something like that.

It was a German guy at a big air back in '06.....

Travis Rice did the first backside version......

I think White was the first to add Cab, 1080 and a mop of Ginger hair to the trick though???

That German guy was David Benedek as Nick said.

Shaun White I believe was the first to do a double cork in the pipe in competition, which he did in the NZ Open in August 2009.

Was it me or did Hannah Teter look like she was going to cry after her second run?

Nope it wasn't you. She was definitely holding it in.

I was just glad to see Tora Tora Tora win.

The Chinese have come on a bit though too, fair play to them !
