fun fact, I was thinking about this and then they brought it up on the broadcast around 24:40: SSX Tricky only supported up to 3 inversions and 1800 degree rotations; anything bigger than that would be displayed as "???". So yeah, that insane over-the-top arcadey snowboarding game wouldn't even be able to comprehend what was thrown down last night.
quad means 4 full rotations, 1800 is 5 full rotations edit. sorry, I guess u meant that they're doing quadruple corks, meaning that they're doing 4 flips
Snowboarding has progressed so much. I remember watching the earlier days of winter X and thinking "this is crazy, how will they ever top this". Everyone is SSX video game status these days. Absolutely nuts.
Style free? Idk those were pretty stylish to me. I mean not like tweaked out or long grabs or whatever. But you do that many spins and land that clean, it's going to look sick.
With progression every year they need to bring the $ booter back 10-15 feet and raise the angle of launch, these guys are maxing out this beast of a section!!
Corning's Tailgrabs looks soo good and I really like them because they look different then the rest, but he always releases then quite early and that's probably the reason why they aren't scored that good
@@Nick-eu5lr @jrbaconcheez what Ive heard (and agree on) most pro sees his tailgrabs as a big no-no (like grabbing tindy), since its very ballerinalike nature. Grabbing it like Mons Roisland on the other hand, is very appreciated.
What a way to cap off the weekend! Insane Superpipe contest, and a Huckfest of Big Air with Quad's and 1800s left and right. Def didn't disappoint this year
Has to be one of the best XGames Big Air events I have seen in quite a long time. These riders threw down some MASSIVE runs. Quad 18s like they're out of style.
I feel like we need more Halldor Helgasons in those events, so that it will become more of a style competition rather than just who can make the most rotations.
I would like a comp where 900 is max. It would make it more about style than who can spin the most... This is impressing dont get me wrong but in my books slow back 180 is one of the coolest tricks =)
@@Hinahou Thanks for the tip, I need to check that! Yeah, I understand the progression part and I'm enjoying this as well. At some point the more spinn/flips thing is just getting repetitive. I really enjoy the knuckle huck bringing the style part into the games as new addition.
@@jeppej4265 i understand why you would say that but that would probably slow down progression in snowboarding. Part of why snowboarding is so cool to me is that they always push themselves and each other. Im sure everyone where stoked to join the 18's club that night.
He's been riding with taped shoulder and popping burana whole comp. Impressing to even try in my books when he hasnt been able to train in last few weeks.
Hey hey, Big Air Podium going completely to the Euros... 😉 Congrats from good old G! Crazy spins and rotations, from where did these guys got the abilitiy to still now after 5 rotations were they are...?
Sooooooooooo impressive. Cheers gentlemen. Thank you sooooooooooo much.......I ll be eternally respectfull about all those physical and mental engagements. Peace. 😇😇❤❤
I remember playing snowboarding video games doing tricks like this. Spinning and flipping as much as the game would allow me. Now people are doing it for real.. bruh...
Anyways those tricks are completely insane, big up to the guys hucking quad 1800s. Every year at the end of X games competitions I ask how can it get any bigger? And it just does!!!
@@unlimitedgnar1955 while I have seen dusty throw a quad cork 1800 at the US Burton you forget that that was the First time he ever attempted it. So while yes he can do it he hasn’t practice the trick as much as Corning or Kleveland
Please bring the knuckle huck back to the big air jump, it where it belongs . Because it felt like the knuckle wasn’t there this year. Still loved it but the competitors needed a bigger knuckle for there hucks !!!!!!
Watching X Games is the one thing that is consistent in my life every year!!
Same
yep, slope used to be my fav and now it is a big air
Same since I bin 13 in 03
It gets better and better with the tricks these guys can do now
This is by far the best big air ever! Everyone stomping their tricks and everyone going yard!
To anyone looking to follow the Takeru Otsuka story of this competition:
Run 1 - 11:57
Run 2 - 17:43
Run 3 - 25:46
Run 4 - 34:56
Run 5 - 42:23
This was the most exciting big air of all time hands down

imagine throwing a quad 18, landing it clean, and still not getting on the podium
I like that format though, cause technically it's Big Air not Best Trick so it takes more than 1 crazy trick to win it.
@@rbgilbert11 Hie is talking about the fact that the level here is insane, that even something as ridiculous as a quad 18 doesn't give you a podium
Lol
If it was just rotations ski big air would become aerials
You need a 2160 or go home.
loved Dusty seeing what everyone else was throwing and deciding to just take his previous medals and have a fun time out there
He was outgunned... He knew it.
honestly, dusty's frontflip was sick.
34:12
Imagine being Takeru and doing the frontside quad cork which has never been done and not even getting on the podium.

no x games in norway this year.
@@alexandraburkhardt725 Yeah
Thanks for the full broadcast
This has to be THE best big air in xgames history
Seeing the best trick of the night (8:58) get scored a 14 as Yuki remains all smiles is both inspiring and soul crushing.
All those 18s and quads but that back triple 16 from yuki was one of the most stylish spins I’ve ever seen

10:15 MARCUS
11:04 DUSTY
11:55 TAKERU

that was insane, they popped off
nah but deadass tho
kinda feel like marcus should've had 3 gold this weekend :) Dusty did do well tho
I feel like he was definitely robbed a bit in slopestyle at least
they always rob marcus and i hate them for it
No he didn’t. You’re stupid
@@DuncanWilliamsOFFICIAL duncan it’s okay man just breathe
He got robbed in knuckle huck IMO
they gotta make the jump bigger next year, its just not enough for some of these guys
Yeah hard to imagine why they keep building smaller jumps. Especially when the only thing they score well are style free widget spinner tricks
They will be sending quints
Style free? Idk those were pretty stylish to me. I mean not like tweaked out or long grabs or whatever. But you do that many spins and land that clean, it's going to look sick.
I could watch this just for the commentating, give them a raise!
"I'm soorry you just don't have I have it" such a Canadian moment
The announcers on this are fantastic.
They’re unbelievable
I thought Yuki would have brought out the bs quad 1980. We know he has it but I guess he was not feelin it.
I love that I have problems doing board slides, and their doing 1800
Lol felt that 😂
i can do a 360
Wow! This 4K Steep gameplay is super realistic!
Low key, there should be the alt-Big Air with a max spin limit at 900. Style rather than huck wins.
With progression every year they need to bring the $ booter back 10-15 feet and raise the angle of launch, these guys are maxing out this beast of a section!!
Fantastic. Best Big Air in years. Well judged and well deserved (although I think Corning's tail grabs were a bit underscored).

front quad 18, NBD, thats fire
these guys all popped off. you love to see it
BIG sends through the whole comp!!! Amazing!!
Mons does switch 1620 and corning does switch 1800 and both get a 45? Seems rough on Chris
I think his 1800 was too hardcore spin to win (the grab and rotating). It was really sick but a bit like ballerina. Just my opinion.
You have to count style as well, Chris 1800 was sick, but little less stylish with that tailgrab
Yeah fair enough, I just feel bad for the guy haha!
Chris’s grab style is trash, that’s why.
haha rene just wanted to join the 18 club

im trying to get to the xgames SNOWBOARDING IS LIFE
To think Markus Cleveland was the first to land a quad cork 1800 in an X games big air event 4 years ago and this was his first gold still baffles me.
The 360 was clean 👌
Corning’s cab 18 was better than a 45. I think a 47 would have been accurate.
Oo, they put this back up, a little controversial with Takeru's injuries. Very tough comp.
Most enjoyable big air I’ve ever seen
TAKE ME BACK TO THE 1800'S W THESE TRICKS
Does anyone know the name of the song that starts playing at 47:58?
oh dude ! I want it so bad too !
Quake Matthews - 50,000 Reasons
Watching Tortein throwing the first triple cork back then somehow was narlyer than those 1800s.
What time is it ..... it’s 18.00 o’clock ......
That was insane
This is so cool!
Which snowboard is Takeru riding in this competition? Someone else had the same one in knuckle huck and the design is sick
This was nuts
Unbelievable
anyone else getting an absurd amount of ads?
seeing no crowd is sad
5:00 first run
Takeru deserved a 50 for the quad 1800 any world first has to be a 50. Dont care that he dragged the hand its still the first one ever done
Hey hey, Big Air Podium going completely to the Euros... 😉 Congrats from good old G! Crazy spins and rotations, from where did these guys got the abilitiy to still now after 5 rotations were they are...?
Billy’s quad predates this by several years
These are tricks I do in steep , wow insane it’s like steep but real life lol
Dudes filming those follow cam angles kinda blows my mind a bit
Thank you
Gracias
Whirling Dervish is a great term, wym
Jeesh, these camera guys are crazy these days too! 🤣
not a fan of cornings style but that 45 was robbery compared to what the others were getting for their 18s
Flat 18s are easier than corked 18s. That’s why Marcus had higher scores, plus the indie grab, just more height, style and smoothness.
@@23JMRH honestly man I get what your say but I believe a flat 1800 is harder because of how fast your spinning which makes it harder to land.
@@ausstn879 agreed

So hard to get a fast spin that has lots of pop going frontside.
