They aren't going away. The best heavies will always be really large guys who move like slightly smaller guys. This. I would put White and Steveson into that third group. They've both gotta be at least 250 right? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

skikayaker 82 Report post Posted January 10 Since we're talking about HWY, I think it should be customary to announce the athlete's weight for the match. All other weights you know what the athlete's weight is, but not with 285. I think it's good information to know if there is significant weight disparity. While I'm creating a wish list I think televised scoring needs to always display riding time. This too is hit or miss with each broadcast. I like something I've seen recently, I think it was with Midlands where they show a scroll across the bottom in green and red the sequence of scoring the TD, Esc, Rev, NF, etc. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

How many 285s are actually even close to being that heavy? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
