I kind of feel the same way. It seems like every bump video I see these days involves a straight back flip up top (perhaps iron crossed) and then a corked 720 type deal at the bottom. Someone needs to bring back a daffy twister spread :grin:

Patrick Deneen has amazing speed in the bumps. He's accelerating the whole way down...

It's the nature of the beast (judged sport). For instance, in watching the gymnastics during the Olympics, those gymnasts develop a routine for the season and pretty much just stick with it. Same thing applies for almost all judged sports, with slight variations.

As good as Deenan is, there's a reason Dale Begg-Smith is rated #2 in the world and #1 in duals:

Deneen is ramping up for 2010 Vancouver. Begg Smith will not be a factor then.

Is DBS not going to Vancouver? Deenan is definitely the U.S.'s go to guy right now.

Where do I recognize that song from?

Oh yeah, I've already watched like every bump skiing video on youtube like 10 times this summer. That must be where.
