    I remember Pollard talking about the entry line both Finny and Ben Richards took, saying (paraphrasing) "you come over that edge and you're in the void - it's so steep there"

    Loved APoll's commentary. Made the comp for me.

    Some insane lines were skied and tricked, but the snow (and vis?) made it less fun to watch than Fieberbrunn imho. Not as fluid.

    Man, there's been a changing of the guard. Not a single 'grown up' charger left. That said, I'm looking forward to seeing what Finn Bilous can do this year, and Wei Tien Ho looks pretty formidable.

    Yep, should be very interesting.

    I can't seem to find the list of 2024 starters/skiers. The FWT website is not the best.

    "Wow. You guys know this is a big mountain comp with freestyle aspects, not a freestyle comp where folks get chastised for skiing big lines."

    Heartbreaking that Reine couldn't stick that backie.

    But Navarro's double (and Reine's), and Turdell's otherworldly control and smoothness, were something else.
