[ALPJr]

One of the best tourneys of the year!

[ALPJr]

Great announcers video conditions. I image that more sponsors and more pros will make the trip in the coming years

[wskier]

[MrJones]

Wow! Nate wins and runs 41 three out of four rounds!!!! Wow! Manon Costard wins again!!! Wow!Freddy Winter runs 41!!!!!! Awesome skiing and.........the silence is deafening!!!!

[Razorskier1]

Incredible skiing. Why are Nate, Freddie and all the rest of them so much better than me? Dang it.

[gregy]

Freddie is an incredible skier, but man Nate is tough. Anyone see what ski Nate was on this time.

[BRY]

WOW, Manon is one tough competitor. According to the front page article: "She didn't just get a piece of 3 to get the win, she ran the whole pass, the third time she has done so in tournament. This was the first time a female skier had ever run 39off in Europe."

On a borrowed ski, crazy. Perhaps she should just let her old ski go and see if she can keep the borrowed one. It certainly seems to work for her. Stellar skiing.

[Wish]

Said it before, Manon is the skier to watch.

[chris55]

Oh yeah....brother......she rocks....seriously, she is strong and I like her style too. She will push herself as well as Regina and Whitney, looking forward to the Malibu

[Luzz]

@rico unfortunately the European Fed website is not programed to handle different formats than the usual multiple round and finals events. Still sore and tired this morning, but as happy and as it gets. So many highlights:

- Nate and Freddie killed it, hands down.

- Robert and Brando showed to be raising stars of our sport

- Manon showed extreme poise and ability to adjust to unexpected difficulty.

- It was showed once again that Europe is a great venue for skiing, and scores can go down here as well!!

 

I'll post more as the day progresses. What a weekend! Thank you @BorisL for the nice words. And thank you to all my staff for their determination and passion.

@Luzz as a novice slalomer waterskier, the SanGervasio tournement was absolutly amamzing, what a performance these guys put on. I loved to watch it (I live in Geneva)

Great to have such a competition here in Europe. Great job, no great job sorry, SUPER JOB !!!!!! Love it

[Razorskier1]

My wife loves Italy. She wants to go next year. Hmmm -- going to have to start saving some money!

[DanE]

@Razorskier1 Nothing to see there, and the food is awful..........not!

[Luzz]

How things went down on Sunday

[gmut]

So! Is San Gervasio located in North Carolina? Nooooo! Soooooo! These skiers can actually post big scores at Little Mountain and other sites!! Yes!

Well shucks,Imagine that!

[Than_Bogan]

@gmut At the risk of being obtuse, what are you talking about? Who are Jeff and Tommy and who ever thought San Gervasio was in NC?

[skidawg]

I believe there's a touch of sarcasm there!

[Horton]

Wait! WTF! Why did TGas go to final ahead of @FWinter?

[jcamp]

@horton, can you award yourself a panda?

[Bill22]

@Horton it's Tuesday and you're asking this?? :smile:

 

Nate had a bad round 1 and didn't make the top 4 (hard to believe 1 @ 41 off is a bad round). That put Nate as 5th seed.

 

H2H round A: seed #1 vs. 8

H2H round B: 2 vs. 7

H2H round C: 3 vs. 6

H2H round "D": 4 vs. 5

 

H2H round E: winner of A "Winter" vs. winner of D "Smith"

H2H round F: winner of B vs. winner of C

 

H2H Final: Smith vs. TGas

 

Edit: I am SURE Horton knows how the system works. I put the above diagram for others who may not.

[Horton]

Aw crap I misread the bracket graphic

[ToddF]

I missed that too. Didn't even consider that Nate wouldn't be the 1 seed.

 

[Freddie Winter]

Yes, @Horton, meeting Nate in the semis sucks. Having said that I think I might just be the only guy ever to get 4@41 in a pro event head to head and lose. At least thats something :smiley:
