Nice, WA represent!
Problem is, next year there will be 60 less spots due to a bunch of older pros who show up just to party and get blitzed. They rarely if ever qualify but are there to bro-brah around. People like Billy Anderson who ride there every year..but never qualify..come on Baker, invite these people due to their contribution, but cut it off if its evident that youre just there to schmooze and try and get your foot back in the snowboard world. Over and over and over plus every old pro in the book…….its a recipe for a lot less local participation.
