pretty sure that halfpipe was like the US Open is in golf. lots of people gonna say it was unfair, but it was the same for everyone.

happy for Farrington. Really cool to see all of the boarders happy for each other(well maybe Teter was a bit sour).

So he was on the ground unable to move and near death. But is able to get up and do the rest of his skate?

Lol USA, imo.

I never know. Unless they fall I'm limited to how loud the announcers are and as I'm sitting in a bar in Tampa, no idea if they got loud. Need to tell whoever does the Closed Captioning to type: (Announcers are getting loud) he does a tr tri triple acel axel.

Like I couldn't honestly tell you if they spun 3 times or 4 times when they do those spins.

yeah that guy was crazy. i'm always amazed at the frequency of **** ups in skating. i guess they reward risk taking which isn't bad for the casual viewer. that guy nailed everything though.
