1. I didn't watch, so I really don't know (but figured I would have seen someone here post about it if it had happened)
2. The double flip prediction has been around for a couple years now.
3. The little bit I did see was boring. So now it's not just flip after flip but also helicopter/flatspin after flatspin. Yay.

Flatwater, I honestly do not think it is possible.........

The double flip will happen at some point. I do agree that the flip and roll show is getting a little old. I watched a clip of one run and went on about my day sitting in front of a smoker and drinking beer. I want to learn to flip but its kind of boring watching flip after flip. I guess its like watching golf on TV. Hate watching but love playing.

I would enjoy a reduction in points after repeating a trick or variation of 8x. I still watched a good bit of the entire broadcast and enjoyed it. They do need to add some shifts for announcers and cameraman. I saw them miss a finish of a race, miss the first flip off, and just generally show something totally different than the announcer is even talking about.

Did Lee have something that locks his pole in position to accomplish that superflip? I saw him do somthing under the pole before and after the flip. His run was awesome.

They have the superflip bars that spin out to lock your wrist, and I believe he uses a snort teather to lock the pole down.

I have been steaming since yesterday. You said pretty much what I thought. I will add, they do this for 6 straight days. NFL commentators do it for 3-4 hours a week. Not for over 72 hours in a weeks time. There is only so much to talk about. As for the comments about they should be interviewing racers. They have. They also talked to whoever would come up to the tower. I could have sworn I heard Clayton Jacobson being interviewed. Scott Watkins was up there.

From a racers stand point. The last think a racer wants to fool with is having to leave your pit and go to the tower. You are too busy to want to deal with that. Mac was racing in 2 classes yesterday. Wait, or was it 3 classes. You may be out there all day but when you race more than 1 class. The time between motos can be short and stressful. I have watched racers literally have to do complete motor swaps between heats. Think they had time to go BS.

STEP UP OR SHUT UP.

Come you really think Mikey is as good as he use to be?
To me he sounds like he is clueless about a lot of what is going on and they need to get some pro freestyle guys to announce for am and am to help announce for pro freestyle.
Him and that chic just sounds like clowns announcing.

yeah, i havent seen what exactly it is in any pics up close, but its about halfway down the pole (not very far on a 15" pole, i know) he locks it down somehow, i believe kahuna is right, just a short cable he hooks up then flips out the superflip bars. it is innovative, and surprising that his superflips and scarecrows didnt give him an advantage over the flip'n flat spin show.

Lee is not using a teather, he has a system he designed himself, he just removes a cap, pushes the pole down and it locks into place. To release he simply pulls a lever.
Chris.

Seems logical now that they have come up with a system, I know 2 years ago or so he had a teather.

errrr, Stoyer was announcing for Amateur.

I did not hear as much yesterday, but they did sound alot better and were announcing where the leaders were better than before........ Were they perfect all week? Hell no.......... I am not disagreeing there is room for improvement.
