i'll tell you what gebauer looked damn good over 18' this weekend. should have made the next bar too. I dont know if he'll win but ill take him for a top three place. My guess is skipper either jumps 5.80 and wins or chokes. should be a great competition, they're all in the hunt. anyone jumpin over 5.50 has a legit shot at the title.

I don't think he wants Tommy to choke, but he could choke. Weather conditions could be bad, he might just be blowing through his poles, he could have a bad day. Anyone could choke at any moment for a thousand different reasons, but just in the case that he does.

um, yeah...i guess they could be....it starts to rain and the roof starts leaking, making the runway slick just when the bar starts getting high.
yeah, skipper doesnt seem like much of a choker based on past results, the only reason why it is a possiblity is really just the normal uncertainty of the vault as an event.
if i was a betting man, i wouldnt put money against skipper...
