Put your skis away because TJ Schiller just closed down the sport of free skiing for the next couple of years. Last night at Winter X Games 10 Ski Big Air, TJ landed a double corked 1620. Yes that is correct, 1620. He just ruined the sport by progressing it way too fast. Because of an awesome couple of jumps by Bobby Brown, TJ had to settle for the silver but I am not sure he is that bent about it. WOW! WATCH TJ SCHILLER'S 1620 X GAMES VIDEO Results: 1) Bobby Brown - 100 2) TJ Schiller - 95 3) Elias Ambuhl - 90 4) Russ Henshaw - 89 5) Jossi Wells - 89

Day 1 is over and so are the X games for a couple unfortunate professional skiers. Since only the top 8 move up, the men's slopestyle finals are going to be packed with the best. I wasn't really impressed with the double flipping straight rail riding competition today. I am stoked to see Sammy and Tom throw down with more style Saturday. Check out the Skiing Slopestyle Men’s Final on ESPN 2 this Saturday, January 30 at 4 pm- 6 pm. The women's slopestyle field was quite a bit smaller so the finals were held today. Kaya Turski, Keri Herman, and Grete Eliassen rounded out the top 3 with no real surprises. Men's 2010 X Games Slopestyle Elimination Results: (Top 8 Make it to Finals) 1 Andreas Hatveit, 2 Bobby Brown, 3 Russ Henshaw, 4 Sammy Carlson, 5 Tom Wallisch, 6 Phil Casabon, 7 Jossi Wells, 8 Matt Walker, 9 JF Houle, 10 Jacob Wester, 11 Elias Ambuhl, 12 Charles Gagnier, 13 Alexis Godbout, 14 TJ Schiller, 15 PK Hunder, 16 Colby West Women's 2010 X Games Slopestyle Final Results: 1 Kaya Turski, 2 Keri Herman, 3 Grete Eliassen, 4 Ashley Battersby, 5 Megan Olenick, 6 Sarah Burke, 7 Kristi Leskinen

Bad news already at winter X Games 14. Skier Simon Dumont was injured at the end of super pipe practice Tuesday morning. From what I have read it sounds like he misjudged a double flip and bounced all the way down to the flat bottom. Don't you worry fans, Simon was checked out by medical staff and is said to be ready... for a day off and some good old fashion rest. Mr. Dumont is still scheduled to compete in Friday's Big Air, Saturday's SuperPipe, and Sunday's SuperPipe High Air. I am hoping for a speedy recovery since Simon is my pick to win the newest event, Super Pipe Big Air. READ THE EXPN ARTICLE
