Yeh but I was only talking strictly in "1rst-and-2nd" comparison
btw, get your statik ass (what a joke
) and comment on my nice new run in Alenic XD
EDIT: I apologise for not making my "criticism" more constructive but I'll try now: given that the more impressive bits (landing on small edge for example) were done by both, and the general skill level looked equal, I was left with the feeling that it was 1 turn that was slightly faster in speed (Mablak's) and 1 that had a bit more variety and looked prettier (Shady's)
I'm not trying to change anyone's decision, this is a discussion
and yes, I do think Stat's run is eaaaaaasily better than KRD's, that little near-fall at the end cannot possibly account for the placement. I can see your point Franz but simply by comparing the 2 runs they would be the other way around in my list and I say this because one of the most important thing in warmer like this is
flow and in this case the flow didnt stop since he roped straight back so grading down for that is a bit silly if this is the way freestyle is usually graded.
I'm not measuring using points but by simply comparing 1 turn with the other.
Again, remember that no one should be offended by this, I'm simply saying an opinion. We all thank franz because hosting and grading such contest is never easy
