i think this is the most hate ive seen in one thread in a long long time, oh well
stop bitching and go ski what you wanna ski, and dont shit on people casue they arent doin what youre doin. i mean you wouldnt go tell a pro football player to go fuck himself if you didnt like football now would you?

and Alpentalik, take your 4frnts and beat the shit out of him

He who dares wins

as much as i dont like the attitudes some racers have towards other mountain users, that guy can FUCK OFF!
KILL ALL THE WHITE MAN!

wow, the hate is bannanas on this one,, tell ya what racing can be a shit load of fun and requires a whole bunch of skill,,,

and if it were easy they'd call it snowbaording

THe thing I really liked about it was the fact that erich fucking rips and destroys the slopes, hes nothing close to a park rat, and its just ironic how out of all the people... he chose to call an a amazing skier all those horrendous names!

^yea, i kinda thought that was the point of this thread - the irony that this guy tried to flame one of the best freeriders on this site about his love for FIS and racing! I think people didnt see this, but then you americans never were any good at sarcasm and irony

My problem w/ racing is the generally snobbery and shit that gets shoved down kids throats.
I went to camp of champions this summer.. and if anyone has been, they know we are right next to 2 racecamps.

Anyways.. on the good days, I would run laps on the tbar, bad days id hike it. The days i ran laps, i made a point of being a bastard and asking every racer i went up the tbar with questions. The mass majority of kids (8-17) years of age, either a: Didnt want to be at racecamp at all, because it was nazi hell. or b: didnt mind it, but would have much rather been at freeski camp. The overwhelming majority of them didnt like there coaches, and found the environment to be far too competitive.

My next point is this. Racing will die. The x games is whats on the cherios box these days (as sterbenz said..).. and theres nothing special about gate whacking. Gate whacking = groomed man made piste skiing. Everyone dresses in tight assed suits (AHHH the hideousness) to see who can go faster on terrain thats built for speed.. yuck. Real 'racing' should take place on extreme terrain.. this has become a joke.

Skiing is about having fun also. Racing defies this from the observations i have made over the years. I go to one of those dinky private ski clubs.. its all about whos racing team does best, whos the best, best times, winning etc etc. Sure newschool skiing has its competition, but i can go to the fucking park with my buddies, enjoy a day of hits.. and never end up bickering over whos better. Wayyy to much snobbery and competition involved. Old fags shove 8 year old kids into racing to furfill dreams that they have could achieve when they were kids.. and create monsters.

^ i rest my case

gun control means using 2 hands

'to each his own'

you know i'm not much into strapping on a darth vader helmet and a full body condom. but there's still a bunch of maniacs who get there kicks out of speed skiing.

they're will always be racers and freeheelers and freeskiers and well hopefully not monoboards.

*O*

i used to race and it was fun while i was young but then i just realized something. racing sucks. Racers are super snobby and think their like gods. Maybe the reason they're so snobby is because they have to wear their gay skintight little suits. Oh ya and freesking takes alot more skill and talent then gate banging.

Sometimes I race home after work to take a dump, or I race over to the grocery store to buy some Doritos.

the thing that I think people are missing is it isn't racing vs. freeskiing, or FIS vs non-FIS, its about assholes on the hill. Guess what, there will always be snobs on the hill, personally I've seen racers be snobs, and freeskiers be snobs too. People just generally need to chill. Racing requires a great deal of skill, as does freeskiing, its just a different blend of the same skills (Balance, Edging, Rotation, and Pressure).

People in this thread have been bitching about Race-nazi's (and yes they are some out there), but are you any better when you comment on them bombing through the park to straightair a jump?

The one thing that hasn't come up and seems to be the problem is respect, not enough people are giving (or getting) respect.

I'm done, and if your gonna flame away.
