Twitch got ****ed at dew action sports tour in denver Bartram beat him by 0.3 for first with a 94.6 and Ailo Gaup got 3rd with a 93.0, Faist ended up in 8th with a 90.5, McElory in 9th with a 90.4 and Metz in 10th with a 90.1. Metz stacked on one of his flips got back up and did back to back flips over the 40 then the 60 and in his second run he did a nose manual to heel clicker flip.He went for a flip after time and come up short and limped of the course. In Twitch's first run he did 6 flips but missed out on basic tricks cos he cut his run short with time to spare. In his second run he did a can can lander flip over the 85 that run got him a 94.3 then the finals were postponed due to wind. Even with the can can lander flip Twitch still got F@#%ED by Bartram and the judges. I think the judges don't give him enough credit cos of his attidude but still he's an awesom rider. If you think Twitch got F!@#ED post your thoughts

Like I said before, Kenny did a tech transfer that no one else hit, and tricked off it, and also pulled a clean McMetz to No Hander lander with no bar check, so I believe that's why he scored slightly better than Jeremy. It was close but that's how it goes. Don't get so emotional about it, judging is a tough job.

i didnt know he did the mcmetz to no hander lander with no bar check but the can can lander flip of the 85 is pretty comparible to the transfer

I could be wrong, but why does there seem to be this attitude that everyone and everything is out to get all the "badazz" riders in the mulisha and that the judges favour the "non-badazz" riders?

It sounds like a pretty good run so i rekon he should have won. Cowboy isnt my favourite but good on him for winning. Twitch has picked up his game heaps and is absolutly flying along :headbang9

Yeah his first final run he over-rotated the Nac-Clicker Flip and crashed into the hay bales... Scored a 73. But it was only best run so it made no difference, his 2nd run was all that counted. Go watch the vids of the runs on www.dewactionsports.com theres a video camera on the left click that...

Just watched the runs, and I hate to say it, but Bartram just owned Twitch. He was more extended, his tricks were cleaner and that transfer to flip was awesome.
