Viewers get tired of 270 on 270 off... reward some style and creativity... LJ deserved to advance, ollie over barrier to 50, 3 off was my favorite trick in first round
It was impressive how he locked into that 50 like that, but not the best trick for me. Nate's making the 450 on look good and then a beautiful back 3 on. LJ had a great showing for first appearance
50s are so much better than boards... I'm never quite sure why they don't get rewarded as much. 50 180 pivot to 50 is the sickest trick every done with a snowboard on a rail. That being said I haven't watched the video yet so I'm not agreeing with you per se.
Meh, kind of a gimmick trick plus he came off the 50 early. If he had reached the end of the rail (and it was short because he jumped on from the side and was short anyways) maybe I'd feel differently.
They really aren’t rewarding style very much kinda just giving the best contest tricks the best points, keep that for slope style let’s have some fun with street
@@ivanvasilevskii wdym Wayne and Brent hold the record for most points by a pair of brothers 2,857 for Wayne, 4 for Brent. Not quite 24 to 1 but you gotta give it to me.
@@CamdenVaughan it's not just one thing tho she calls a half cab a cab 1 among other things it just sounds like someone who doesn't ride much even tho she is one of the best female riders
Xgames is gonna have to re assess the criteria for which they judge STREET contests. LJ IS street. Also announcers never acknowledge switch… I think they need real street riders to announce.
They explained in the beginning that the overall look will be judged and if they use every obstacle and doing different stuff and said that one good trick doesn't mean a lot. And then the judges proceed to ignore everything and all of that imo...
Only one set of rails?? That's... strange. Feels like at least two, preferably 3 would be better. In any case, not trying to be negative just want to see the best stuff from the athletes, they still killed it.
Dude..... I LOVE snowboarding. I own 9 boards n have 2 season passes. I don't even watch baseball. But when was the last time you heard of a snowboarder signing a contract for 700 mil.? Sort of like why Ricky Fowler left moto for golf. Lj should just shred when he goes on vacation.
Love all these riders but that first round was weird. Your score, however it is they measure, should definitely be affected for falling, it’s not just about the biggest trick.
I got respect for the riders, but eeeeenough with 270 in and 270 out. Judges could careless about creativity. Last but not least every jam format at least lets the other riders do one more run after the timer ends, but not this one. Xgames we can do better with this event.
Can we please get some announcers that know what they’re talking about? On top of all the wrong tricks being called … There’s no such thing as a cab 1, it’s a half cab… Always has been always will be
Patrick Hoffman won gold in my book with that seat belt grind and peek-a-boo and zombie flip; tricks nobody else were doing. This non-existent grading system is trash.
Hailey has 3 Xgames metals, including a gold. Multiple video parts. And a slush mag cover. They're calling tricks from a live feed. Miscalled tricks happen.
She was really good at women‘s big air, new all tricks plus grabs. She also is an amazing snowboarder herself. But here I have to agree, no one seems to know lips from boardslides or what a bluntslide is, Craig was missing here!
This is the worst judging I've ever seen

yeah wack wack xlames
@ lamegames
Its still Spin to win even in these comps. Sort of sad because the viewers don't want to see spins, we want to see style!
@ yeah it’s unfortunate they kinda got knuckle huck judging down but I think they glaze zeb a bit to much
Frank really didn't have many spins tho @@scottdurkee3833
Looks like judges already had made up their minds before the contest and went full ostrich mode.
Yeah, it was the strangest judging I’ve ever seen.
Fava should have made the finals
My opinion LJ should’ve got in final wit them crazyyyyy board switches just before he lands🔥
Patrick got absolutely robbed. he was def the most creative
Mark and Craig are the Brent and Wayne Gretzky of snowboarding
they are not
@@ivanvasilevskii wdym Wayne and Brent hold the record for most points by a pair of brothers 2,857 for Wayne, 4 for Brent. Not quite 24 to 1 but you gotta give it to me.
LJ looks like he’s 28 dude deff had a beard when he was 9
Patrick got robbed of that last hit, definitely should have been in the finals.
really short runs, kinda needs like another two sections of features. The runs are less than 10 seconds
This is street style not slope style. There are no runs in this competition.
Maybe anon should start a cause building company. Bet it’d get every xgames contract.
literally 45 minutes of some of the sickest park/street snowboarding and people still find a reason to complain.
thats the point of street style?
@@zfried4357can't please everybody, lol. I thought this was well done. I liked it more than the copper course
How didnt that fronty off the wallride take the lead??? Vs a bunch of lip slides and spins out...wild
he got banned for flipping in a railjam.
The fact that you have to ask that question speaks volumes about your snowboarding knowledge
Yes seriously
@@Wyatt274you are so cool, do you want a cookie 🍪
So cool to see Craig competing
I have no problem with commentators not knowing tricks but dont be the one calling the tricks then
Very hard to listen to
fr this chick doesnt know that you can tail/noseslide/bluntslide nor does she even know the difference between board and lip
Overall impression can be described by good commentary and not cutting off results for profit.
15:27 My favorite part of the broadcast.
Hahaha that me laugh 😂. I just imagine Selema is exhausted from the night before, maybe a little hung over haha
LJ got robbed
he didnt he really wasnt the best bro
patrick got robbed
Fr bro🙏@@shm586
***SPOILER ALERT*** 🚨
@@BradyMcGrath-l8n so hard to stack all these guys against each other id hate to have the judges jobs!
I went to school w Nate. Cool guy
W i used to snowboard with LJ at big snow crazy seeing him in x games
Liam got not love in the final
@6:33 does she call a backside lipslide a front board?!?!?!
Also calls a FS Lip a Boardslide @11:24 and then calls a BS Board a Lipslide @19:35...
great. its like a cool session with friends.
None of these announcers now what snowboard tricks are called. Hilarious
Who is that girl in the booth that doesnt know what a switch back lip is?? I saw eddie just standing there shouldve got him on a mic
Hailey Langland who won this event last year
She’s calling back lip a front board and a front blunt a front board. No distinction between those I guess, everything’s a front board 😂
@DanielRene Hailey rips I'm surprised she doesn't know the lingo but at least she's a boarder
Yeah she is probably the only person to ever announce a trick wrong while commentating live… definitely the only one on this broadcast too…
@@CamdenVaughan it's not just one thing tho she calls a half cab a cab 1 among other things it just sounds like someone who doesn't ride much even tho she is one of the best female riders
i turned this off when the dude who fell 3/5 times made the finals over 2 dudes who landed all of their tricks.
Yeah, the judging on this event didn’t make any sense!
1st Run - 3:13
That gold belonged to Nate haust
LJ GOT ROBBED THIS IS THE LAST TIME IM WATCHING THE XGAMES.
LOL... We all said that last year!

Yeah, it was bizarre asl
Who judged this? 😂
Judges must be biased, LJ deserved that final
Take some treats for this 🍩🍿🍺🍟🍕🥨
Haley langland needs to find a different gig
But why was Dusty Hendrickson in the intros but not in the comp
Best singular rail contests
yeah, this is not it - street style should be judged way more heavily on style, it's literally in the name
Love the X Games
This was really underwhelming after watching the mid blowing big air.
yall should invite lane weaver
@15:26 😂
Selema got caught snoozing
Where was Zeb? I thought he was in street style this year.
I think he pulled out last minute? I’m still waiting to hear why.
He did pull out last minute, Craig replaced him that's why he had so little practice.
Craig is the MVP. haha
LIAM WAS GOLD! 🤮
I agree with the judging. Jobin killed it in the finals. Maybe Brearley could've been higher but he did make some mistakes
Oh yeah!
would love to see zeb in this comp
LJ did not get enough recognition
Liam got robbed. He should've gotten Gold.
Unreal
Only one set of rails?? That's... strange. Feels like at least two, preferably 3 would be better. In any case, not trying to be negative just want to see the best stuff from the athletes, they still killed it.
nooo way, Nate should've taken the gold
An entire event for a single hit? How incredibly underwhelming
That's why it's call street bud you only get one hit, just like in the streets. Slope style is what you want to watch for rails and jumps.
@@prestonwood2984 Yep, well aware and love street. I just don't find it exciting as an event.
How come Patrick didn't get into the playoff? boardslide + frontflip
Dude..... I LOVE snowboarding. I own 9 boards n have 2 season passes. I don't even watch baseball. But when was the last time you heard of a snowboarder signing a contract for 700 mil.? Sort of like why Ricky Fowler left moto for golf. Lj should just shred when he goes on vacation.
You sound like us Bladers. We shred when we have enough time off from work. Doesn't pay the bills
LIAM GOT ROBBED
Why did zeb pull out of the comp. he is the only one I wanted to watch
Let’s chill out on the “sheesh”’s
LJ is a dog has a long career ahead of him
Haust crushed that
Anyone know which camo pants Fava is wearing? I want those.
Bring back Border-X!!!!
oh theyre still doing boardslide 270
My name is dylan and my older brother is Dustin so I love how dusty Hendrickson and dylan Hendrickson is a thing
Zeb would be bored with this short line
This is a snoozer of an event….wow.
how tf did LJ not advance? he didnt fall once and had the best style
idk what was so special about benny and frank tbh
Love all these riders but that first round was weird. Your score, however it is they measure, should definitely be affected for falling, it’s not just about the biggest trick.

one of the commentators doesn't know what a lipslide is
Whats going on with the judging?👎
Love Liams style, but he clearly should have been last in his run. Should have been Pat and LJ
Dew tour was made of shredding besides natural selectio
where is denis leontev
fr fr, every year
They did LJ dirty
LJ all day!
This chick announcing is clueless
Can we please get some announcers that know what they’re talking about?
On top of all the wrong tricks being called … There’s no such thing as a cab 1, it’s a half cab… Always has been always will be
You can't compare and judge tricks done on different obstacles
I am got snubbed
Patrick Hoffman won gold in my book with that seat belt grind and peek-a-boo and zombie flip; tricks nobody else were doing. This non-existent grading system is trash.
Patrick got robbed 😢
best event for sure. that flat light must be brutal though
this casting is just hard to watch
Am I tripping? Where tf is dusty bruh
These short runs are extremely boring. Make them as long as possible and use snow skates instead. Ty and Yw.
Hofmann and Tj got robbed.
Grind and flip wins…..
I was really excited for this, then I saw the sorry excuse for a course. Do better X-games
Commentators are bleh.
WHO IS NED?
These judges suck. So whack.
Liam got robbed
I see no street
This is kinda terrible. Why aren't there numerous obstacles on a longer course?
Fava hosed
Fava got robbed…
The judging is as bad as it has ever been in my opinion
The woman announcer is cringy
Yea I know she doesn’t know how to call tricks she shouldn’t be an announcer, called a back lip a front board
Hailey has 3 Xgames metals, including a gold. Multiple video parts. And a slush mag cover. They're calling tricks from a live feed. Miscalled tricks happen.
@@silasdavis7661she’s still cringe on the mic
