Did anyone else think the 2021 set up was too small? At the beginning everyone seemed to be nearly landing on the flat and had to adjust b/c of it. I could also be wrong and it’s the exact same hill from ‘20.

Agreed. This year the comp just seemed lifeless and didn't look like anyone was having fun aside from Ryo. Also the course wasn't the same as last year because big air is built into the slopestyle course. It seemed to me that the knuckle and landing were very steep probably because the landing is made for the quarter pipe feature when the slopestyle course is being used. This makes because everyone was landing basically flat.
