I personally think Kelly got robbed. He should have won that event.
Cam McCaul was going to try and flip that gap last year but wind stopped him. He was the ONLY guy to hit it last year. This year he hit it again on his first run. He was planning on hitting it on his second but never got to make the second run. They shut the event down due to wind. I think that had Cam run his same run and tossed a flip he wins the whole event... and his little brother... he should have been on the podium too.
Great event but they need to fix it. Cutting it short should not be an option. Run more days. Everyone gets 2 runs. Otherwise you have guys trying to dial in a run having essentially their safe run go up against a guy that goes hard on the first run in... say the dude that goes first... thinks he'll get 2. Guy going last knows he's only gonna get 1. Disadvantage. Or you have guys pushing it when they shouldn't be and clipping stuff because they got wind drift and snapping their freakin femurs.
But yeah... those 2 back flips trump that super double back.
He's on a huge wooden ramp. He's probably done it 100 times at Pastrana's house. He's in a wind controlled environment dropping on a man made run in. Perfect conditions.
Dude did a back flip over a 75ft gap of death. And zink's step down back... that isht was crazy. I actually got kind of confronted by him last week because I said he wrote the rest of the run off and shouldn't be the slope style rider of the year. Good dude. *****... big big brass *****. Family man. What he did was legendary. He missed that flip and he's dead. Period.
