Shawn likes Sean. She was tweeting about wanting to snowboard…
Shaun’s perfect 100 is a joke. Yes, it was better than the rest, but it was still a run with errors. The perfect score was a marketing ploy and a gimme since he had already won. His last trick was all over the place, and ended with him dragging his hand (a terrible execution error). It would be like someone getting a 10.0 E-score on bars at Worlds despite dragging their feet on the floor.
