Slopestyle included in 2014 Winter Olympics

In a move that will no doubt again have the snowboarding community divided the IOC have announced that slopestyle will be included in the Sochi 2014 games. Will this be good for the sport or just good for certain stars bank balances? You can check the full release from the IOC over here. Its also interesting to note they have shortlisted “roller sports” for inclusion into the summer games as well. Make of that what you will.
