Nicholas "the furor" Foederor and his Xh20 golden circle are a joke. Nick says the group wont allow it, everyone else says its Nick that makes the final call. He tells people no, but when sponsors and friends of sponsors show up with Sparks its no big deal. "Every circumstance is different" is the offical reply I got from him. :facepalm:
Its not what our sport needs, but they arent worried about the sport as a whole. They are only worried about their niche.
I have asked nicely for 3 years to change the rules and always get shot down. I would have little issue with "the rules", but when you bend the rules you look like a hypocrite.
They even told a guy this year with a 3d no. Its the ultimate in hypocrisy. As big of a joke as it is...its still a freakin standup!!!!
I can completely agree...its not the place to be ripping side to side on some 4stroke turbo, but if you understand what the event is geared towards and can do what the group is doing...you should be allowed. If you want to be there with your big ski just go a little farther out and do whatever you want...go for it! If you wanna jump waves on your RXPX...just do what others are doing and everything will be fine.
I have a small group of people over on the X that agree its a joke and I have almost posted what I posted above there...but in all reality the thread will disappear and nothing will change.
