This final is not engaging me at all. Too many falls.

3rd round is terrible.

This is such a disappointing final. Ton of good jumps, but each and everyone with a shitty landing.

Every qualifying event in snowboarding has been better than the final

 has won the first men’s big air, just a question of which one.

Worst event of the Games, awful final. I appreciate they were all trying to pull big tricks out of the bag but everyone falling on their face has made for a very boring final.

Gold for  Sébastien Toutant, silver for  Kyle Mack, bronze for  Billy Morgan.

 

Third best Canadian wins it, first ever freestyle snowboarding gold medal for Canada. Really happy for Toutant, he’s had an amazing and long career (so far) and I’m glad he finally has an Olympic medal.

11 golds = best non-home games for Canada

Women's Slopestyle was worse

Galmarini, Dufour both Italians, Karl, Payer, Prommeger, Wild, maybe outside chance for Kislinger, Baumeister, Kosir and Lee too. Basically the whole circuit is so close you can never point out a winner, cause most of them can win.

Basically, Mastnak, Kim, Sarsembaev and Kwiatkowski the only ones with no chance, most of them surprise qualifiers.

Thanks. Thought so. Especially those quarterfinalists,differences between them shouldnt be big at all. From that point,everything is possible.

Yes, though at least they could blame the conditions
