He did not place well as he did not pull a trick on the quarter pipe or get big air on the quarter pipe, the first place contestent did some sick stuff too
This vid shows most if not all of the runs.
Skip to 7:10 for the first place winner

Jeff…yeah…I agree that he didn’t do a trick on the quarter pipe but come on, when you pull off a trick like that, I really don’t think you even need to do anything else.
Oh well. The thing that sucks about this competition is that the judging is very subjective.

Im not an expert on it but i believe its big air becuase your supposed to get the biggest air on the quarter pipe and bust out a move for points, i agree the guy should have won aswell as the fans and some of the other riders but the judges have to give out points properly.
