Yup, don't hate on the player, hate on the game. The number of times McMorris has been (unjustly) judged higher than Parrot or Sandbech is infuriating. Having an established name can really boost your winning chances (unfortunately) (I'm half-Swedish btw and love both Henrik and Jesper. But Jesper deserved gold bigtime)

Jesper wins on difficulty, variety and amplitude. They gave Henrik the win to make up for robbing him last year.

The guy innovating and elevating the sport looses to a dude thats just spreading the same butter all night long...

Jesper killed that, wtf x games

Even Harlaut looks surprised to win the event

To provide some nuance to the comments. Whilst I agree Tjäders tricks are bigger, Henrik is actually using the knuckle to amplify his tricks and style. I like this ruling because it signals that riders need to play to the event rather than treat it like big air and "spin to win" which is what won Colby this event last year.

Jesper used the knuckle in every trick except the dub underflip. The switch back full was super creative and he used the knuckle, he tapped his tips on the knuckle on the dub back which was crazy, and the 3 to nb 10 was also using the knuckle and was a more traditional knuckle trick but harder than anything that Harlaut did. If they don't want skiers to treat it like a big air, they shouldn't but that little lip on the knuckle or change the shape or just make clearer rules beforehand.

@jakob2fredrik

Good points, although I think the "nose tap" in the dbl flip was by accident than design (still sick). I think Henry's butter tricks were strongest in the field but I agree that judges should make it clear what they will judge for and then riders can decide whether they just want to have fun or if they want to play to win. The reason the medals become so random is because the events are judged differently each year.

because there is less money in our sport and the xgames now has college level production

My issue is that Henrik did a variant of the same trick all night. Jesper brought something a bit different with every lap. I think the judges thought he was trying to spin to win a style comp, yet none of those tricks would really be seen in slopestyle or big air. The level of difficulty to do those butters imo is about the same as it takes to do alot of what jesper did its just a different style and the judges obviously perfered henriks over jespers. On the brightside if this year follows the same pattern as the last 2 years Jesper will win and we will all think someone else got robbed.(even though most of us like everyone out there)

Jesper is the best skier in the world!!!!!

I cannot believe they robbed Jesper like that. That double backflip tap was insane

I think the Judges gave it to him to make up for that stupid score they gave him in the big air. Henrik looks like he felt that way as well because he looked over at Jesper, congratulated him and then said he thought a lot of other people skied better than him in the event.

I'm not into snowboarding and skiing but I've watched this and previous ones. In my opinion the only cool looking stuff this year was Hall's tailtap-360 and all of Jesper's stuff.

Just listen to the commentators excitement on Jespers vs Henrik. Big differense.

Even if you just listened to this comp you can tell from Toms excitement (and confusion in his voice when henrik won) that Jesper should’ve won. They handed the medal to henrik Tom went silent and then said “really cool” 😲

To be honest I love Henrik but Jesper did better if you ask me and it felt like he got the gold as an exuse for the bad judges in Big Air

Did the judges not watch what I've just watch, Henrik is great but Jesper my goodness!

I feel like Henrik Harlaut knew it from the moment he got the gold medal, that he won undeservedly. He awkwardly celebrated (for me it looked like he forced his hype, especially when you compare his celebratings from last year) and even hugged Jesper at the end, showing his compassion.

I don’t know anything about this sport but I’ve seen this competition a few times, and the only thing that makes sense for the judges to give it to Henrik is this : they don’t want knuckle huck to become a smaller version of the big air competition. They don’t want athletes to throw down these monster tricks because ‘’it’s not the spirit of the competition’’. Not saying it’s right, obviously. I was actually shocked to see Jesper not getting the medal. But you have to say that Henrik’s tricks were more oriented towards the classic ‘’knuckle huck spirit’’, and I think that’s why the judges rewarded him. Nose butters, style rotation, etc. are what made this competition what it is today, and the judgs obviously want to keep it that way. Wouldn’t be surprised if they decide to ban double flips. Just like frontflips and backflips were banned from figure skating.

😂 the intro music is perfect

they've seen jesper do a switch double backflip a million times while atleast henrick brought something new to the table

Being a Henrik fan since i can remember, but this was robbery... Jesper did some sick stuff while Henrik went on doing basically the same tricks. IMO Henrik should've got the gold last year and Jesper this year...

Hendrik did very well but for me it looks a little bit like he is doing the same trick all the time

How on earth Jasper did not win this? Since when Jasper does not have a style? - Plus his tricks are so sick! Come on give him that gold medal! Judges you made a terrible mistake here, big time!

Iam with the judges , yeahr of course tjäder did crazy unique tricks but Harlaut sent it sooo damn smooth n clean i would give style a point more than the Type or Kind of trick, soo buttering a long way or a scatchy nice butter could Look sweeter than a back flip or f.flip🎉 big up they both should get Gold. Keep Up! R¡de on ❤

I agree Jesper should have wo, but do not forget knuckle huck isnt just about throwing the biggest tricks and the most flips its about style and trick selection. So while jesper definiitely won on technicality of tricks I feel henrik kinda gave the judges more of what they wanted from this event

Jesper was completely robbed

I'd probably say jesper deserved the win, but I think it's interesting that a lot of the usual comments on these comps are people complaining that judges don't care about style and its all about spinning to win. In this case style was king, but now people are upset about it this way too. Idk what to do with this information, just kinda putting it out there

The judges completely robbed Jesper he deserves to win

Henrik you keep it butter man don't flip and spin looking like a Olympic diver for the people who can't even walk straight they like flips you keep it style and when you do flip and spin it's still style love you don't do a trick to compo till it it's smooth keep doing you man shit is real and snowboarders and skiers lovin' it

Even if u try to justify henry's gold as "he was going for stylish stuff" the butters weren't suuuuuper long or flexed as for example last year's nb frontflip. Simply don't understand the judgment, I'm sad for Jesper

if you guys don't stop complaining they'll let Jesper Tjader win with a 360 next year.

Jesper had to kiss the knuckle this year to finally let the judges know he could do it all

What Henrik did, I did at age 13. What Jesper did, is what I dream about doing. To be honest, Jesper got hasseled the way I talked myself into 2nd place at Redbull Play streets quite a time ago.

3:10 was so fucking clean

i mean henrik did some super steezy tricks, but jesper was the winner for sure

IM a Henrik and Tjader fan, but imo Tjader won that..no hate to Henrik at all, both were great

I thought that the other guy was way better. Went bigger snd wsy more creative. Thought the winner was a bit boring to watch

I remember watching Shaun White beat Louis Vito and thought to myself...Vito was 10 times more talented, but Burton was the sponsor of the event and White. You get what you get

Henrik basically did the same thing over and over, spinning the same rotation (counter-clockwise) for every single time he went, just changing to switch and adding another 180. Also it looks like he is stomping both feet down inbetween the spins so he's basically "resetting" instead of landing in a butter. Props to both guys but I think Jesper def should have won since he had WAY more creativity on every single trick and way harder and way more creative. No hate towards Henrik just the judges.

I think Jesper he just had so much style but Henrik was much more smooth and clean

I want XGames to highlight the trick that won gold

Three of Henrik's tricks were the exact same.

Jesper is the best

Jesper did the best tricks on the knuckle. But Henrik and Jesper were god. 🙂

Was sure Jesper was gonna take home the gold.. But wont complain over Henke taking it. See it like Creative vs Style!

I’m a huge fan of Jesper tjader

Jesper should win!

I think that x games was compensating for robbing him on his switch dub bio 18 which got a 38 and the run before was a switch dub bio 16 got a 42. I don’t think he would’ve beaten Andri cuz he was berserk but he could gotten silver or bronze

Henrick is by far my favorite skier hands down but... he for sure did not win that

Jesper is the #1!

Jesper was the real winner just as last year

Jesper won in my heart

No hate to henrik but jesper can do all of those tricks and he did better tricks than henrik switch dub back my guy is insane

see you next tuesday judges!

Big fan of Henrik but Jesper should've won, maybe the judges felt like they had to give henrik the win after he dropped out of slopestyle
