I've noticed that there's a year that's as good (or slightly worse) as the last, and then it gets better.  Imo this pattern goes all the way back to 2006.  2007 was about as good as 2006, 2009 was slightly worse than 2008, 2011 was slightly worse than 2010, 2013 was about the same as 2012.  And now it's improved again.  (This is just one slightly wacky guy's opinion, apologies if it makes no sense).

Dennis put up a good fight to beat Ryan.  In fact if he'd finished strong I think he may have beat him.

Oakland had a surprise appearence from Dustin Brown for freestyle. He came out first, ended it with a nice save, and took the lead for 3/4 of the show.

I forget what event it was at, but they had a 5x5 square of cars and a fmx hill so the trucks would land on the cars. They need to bring that back.

I believe you'd be referring to one of the Houston shows in 2010.  Maybe FELD could incorporate that somehow into the WF15 freestyle course.

I love this setup, but to be honest (from this angle at least) it looks pretty dangerous.  Crossthreading that would be asking for a rollover.

I think Joey could be an underdog in racing this year.  Not only did he win the Young Guns Shootout last year but he almost upset Dennis in Round 1.  I don't think he'll win but I think there's a good chance he'll make the quarter-finals.

Agreed on the bus stacks, I would love to see a triple that's somewhere between WF9 and 11, about as big as 9, but not quite as dangerous as 11.  (But not the one at WFX, that one didn't seem to work as spectacularly).

There are only the two for 2012 and 2013.

Alright, got it.

I do one of these every year, but they're usually around 20 minutes, is it required that I condense it?

Didn't put very much thought into these, just what I want to happen there.

Fastest Qualifier:  Adam in GDTL
Racing Finals:  Linsey Weenk (Winner) vs Marc McDonald

Top 5 Freestyles:

1.  Monster Mutt (Charlie Pauken): 31 + 4 = 35

2.  Son Uva Digger (Ryan Anderson): 32

3.  Crusader (Linsey Weenk):  29 + 3 = 32

4.  Avenger (Jim Koehler):  30 + 1 = 31

5.  Stone Crusher (Steve Simms):  27 + 3 = 30

And for the hell of it...

32.  Scooby-Doo (Nicole Johnson):  6

The Houston article said that he had two incredible saves in his run.  I'm excited to see the other one.

That's a good point, very good in fact, but most people probably wouldn't recognize the luck Cam had last week.  Both are strong contenders though I now believe.

Here's what I believe is the save being spoken of.  Good, but definitely not save of the year.

Awh dammit, I almost went back to St. Louis this year, if all these are true I'm gonna be pretty upset.

Further differentiating this season's freestyle courses from the past few.  Hopefully they bring back those crazy, partially destructible obstacles for the World Finals.

Not to be that one guy, but right now that line-up says 'Loo O'Donnel'.  Unless Lee's secretly a British toilet that should probably be fixed.

Danny's post beats this one by miles, but Dustin had a pretty good save in Indy.  He's getting better as well.

Wow, that was really funky.  That's definitely a save of the year nominee.

Here's two of the four runs that got a 19.  If these were some of the best I'd assume the rest wasn't any better.

From what I've found on YouTube so far, the judges were a little strict, but yes it seemed like a very bad show for a stadium.

I'm not exactly sure what Carl was thinking at the end of this run.  He had the win in the palm of his hand and... well just look.

All the ramps on that San Diego track look like they're gonna send trucks flying.  I think we can all be confident in saying that wasn't/won't be the only big crash highlight of the night.

Haha I knew someone was gonna post that.  Freestyle of the Year nominee right there.
