I don't care for sports where the winner is decided by a panel of judges. Exception - MMA and boxing, at least they can win by a KTFO.

Ok so I watched it anyway, yeah, exactly as I thought. He flips and spins around, but honestly, what makes that a perfect run?

Because his name is Shaun White.

Any sport that relies on judges to give a score is subject to favoritism.

This is no different.
