im only checking because its about me. and I have nothing else to do.

But I thought we already cleared up that I'm not a part film filmer for Poorboyz. I was a freelance filmer, and they didnt even use any of my shots.

Im not saying you have to dig it. I simply made a video for sponsors. Its not like I put it on NS bragging about how good I am. I didnt want NS to see it. Love it or hate it. Its called an opinion.

I didn't know we already cleared this up.. Sorry that I am not regularly checking this website..

Also, I mostly find it humorous that you are on here defending yourself.. Just something I find funny about this website..

In addition.. If they aren't even using any of your shots than why are you claiming that in your video?

Lastly, I never was trying to say negative things about the promo.. I really enjoy it.. Happy to see a kid out there that isn't solely stooked on rails and doing pretzels.. I was just trying to point out some questionable statements or points you make within the video.. That is all..

because that video is already outdated. It says Im 15, it says I filmed part-time for PBP (which isnt true, its fee-lance, when I made it I didn't know the difference.), and it says my only sponsors are obermeyer and tramdock.

I am replying because you are asking me questions.

This is a great example of NS. Some brings up a video the creator never wanted NS to see, and then the haters start bashing it. And hating on landis is just pathetic. when you start hating on people like him that means you have no times on your hands.

You probably won't accomplish half of that in your life time and he did it by 15.  So get off his back, if you don't have anything nice to say stfu and get off the forums.

And it was a sick video landis, good work.  Look forward to seeing something else by you.

Excuse me, but you are in no postion whatsoever to be making fun of anyone. You havent even been here for one year, have no thread, pictures, or videos. Basically, all you contribute to the site is hate. Its nice that people like you "dont check regularly."

So what, Landis is better than you. So what if he has a good promo? So what is he is checking a thread made about him? Making fun of him and putting him down only shows all of us your insecurities. Yes, I have taken 2 years of psycology- I have a good idea as to why some people do what they do.

Did you know that people who constantly make fun of others, are actually just projecting the traits of themselves that they dislike?

I try to contribute to this website in a positive manner. If you would like to do otherwise, there is a link at the top left-hand corner that says "Logout ilikemuffins". I would suggest you click that, and find something better to do with your time.

Editing was so sick. the shot of the zero spin off a rock early in the video honestly resembled film so much to me. skiing was good too

sorry you got me there.. two years of psycology is rather impressive.. i'm really just showing newschoolers.com all of my insecurities.. hilarious..

and you're right i'll probably never accomplish half as much as this kid within the ski industry..

and.. i wasn't saying only negative things i might add.. im stooked that there are some kids out there that aren't only impressed by spinning onto rails and doing "urbans." there are definately a few backcountry shots that are pretty sick..

Hey hey hey...lets not start a hate thread. Love each other. People liked it. Others didn't, thats okay too. Just be passive about it.

And I need to give up on trying to explain myself to people with negative attitudes. I need to get used to the fact that people will love or hate no matter what.

bye Newschoolers.

good format and feel but i feel like theres no wow factor. theres good shots but if you only spend time in the bc i would expect more stuff. your zeros and 180s are nice tho. I really dont wanna sound like a dick but it just seems like sponsors wouldnt be amazed at it. Itll probably get you on an AM team for a small company like surface tho. good luck and sorry if this came out in a dickhead way.

ya newschoolers is whack, landis is a great skier, there is no specific formula for what companies look for in a skier, if i had to narrow it down to a few words it would be: skilled, stylie, easy to work with, nice and honest

I liked the whole feel of the video, it gave a good sense of what your about not just look what I can do. You have sick style too which you can't really teach, overall an amazing vid

the overall impression made by someone as young as 15 is amazing. he doesnt come of as super cocky like a lot of skilled young guns. its a sick promo

exactly. Usually i think trying so hard to get sponsored is lame but in his position i support it because the kid lives in alaska and needs some help getting out of there to where he can do more with skiing.

So yeah, sponsor whoring isnt for everyone but go landis! Get a travel budget and come to whistler. That and just because you can do more tricks than him doesnt make you more worthy of sponsors, landis has alot to offer to anyone he rides for especially with his filming experience.

All I can say is wow. I have never seen such a good promo. Yes the skiing is not the best but the ideas and what he has to bring just to the sport of skiing is unmatched by many of the people on newschoolers. And I also can't wait to see more from Sloth.

i can't believe only one ohter person thought that sucked. that eskimo certainly knows how to talk himself up, seeing as he did significantly more talking than skiing. plus the namedrop was pretty funny to: "i film for poor boyz..." yea sweet. i think that kid just dug himself a hole and is gonna have to become alot better to get out of it.
