how did hibbert get sponsored?

i'm sure this sort of thing has been posted before, but since i don't really care:

how in the shit did hibbert get sponsored, get invited for his own segments in movies and qualify for the x games (which i did not get to see the qualifiers of). in watching his brilliant segment in forward, his ungodly horrible skiing ability has led me to question how he has scammed the newschool arena into letting him become a pro skier. can hibbert do anything? is he good, ever?

go steal strike three from your grandmother and watch it. and then look at how hardcore hibbert is. and how big he goes, and how huge his nuts are.

first of youre a jackass. second, he finished most of the rails he fell on, and completed most of the tricks he fell on in forward. he just takes soem spectacular falls. berman realized (correctly) it wowuld be humorous to make a segment of all his best crashes over the years. anbody that has the balls to take the falls he does and then get back up to try again deserves sponsers.

not to seem bluntly obvious but his part in forward was meant to be a joke, scott hibbert is an amazing skiier, watch any movie with him in it or just watch comp footage..... he deserves everything he has come by and you dont deserve to live, the end.

put it this way alpinecowboy, he may crash a bit, but he has such a determination that he ends up sticking everything you see him crash. He is also the same guy who slid that huge triple kink in strike 3 when people like steele spence and olenick couldn't. point: he's got game

'can you read what that says?'
'donna simma?'
'yes, that's right. now how would that appear in a phone book?'
'simma, donna?'
'that's right now Simma down na!'

Alpinecowboy seems to be rather critical of a lot of pros...Sarah Burke, Pep, and now Hibbert...You're going to get a lot of hate over this kinda stuff, man. At least you weren't the one who posted '''Eric pollard sucks'' though... but anyways, I haven't seen enough S Hibb footy to comment on this one, not having ever seen strike 3.

even if he was a total hack, which he obviously isn't, the fact that he has made enough of a name for himself that everyone knows who he is, is enough reason for sponsorship.

man ive been to that quad kink personally, watched my friend try it, and i tried the last kink on it. after seeing my friend (psychicskier) try the whole thing like 15 times and only get up to the third kink, ive gained a new perspective on scott hibbert. he tried it hundreds of times unsuccessfully. HUNDREDS. do you understand the beatings that the rail gave to him? but he got it in the end, just like the dude above me said, and guys like olenick and spence didnt. thats why he is one of the best and ballsiest in the game.

oh and by the way, watch out for danny (psychicskier), because he will get this rail really soon, and it will be posted on ns for all of you to see and watch in amazement.

fucking hell... hibbert has been at it for a long fucking time and he has the sack to do alot of things that other pros cant. alpine do anything that hibbert does in any of his segments and then maybe you can talk shit about him and look like a complete fucking jackass instead of an 9 year old complete fucking jackass

um, how about the fact he is one of the first people to do 12's in the pipe, is one of the best grinders in the world, and has one every single minor competition he has ever entered. Not to mention the fact that he has been part of snow-jam, one of the most exclusive contests, and won his fair share.

man, all i have to say is that the proof of him being one of the best lies in the fact that he has been invited to the x-games, world superpipe championships, and the whistler invitational. and he podiumed in whistler. he is just an unlucky guy when it comes to most major comps, thats all.

nuf said, i'll watch strike three. oh don't get me wrong i never said the kid wasn't determined. its just that from what i've seen of the guy, he goes big and then goes home.

JD i just choose to be critical of skiers just as others are critical of other professional athletes. i think theres too much blind love for pro skiers on this site. they're all good but the bar has to lie at some level.

hibbert has been throwing down 1080 grab's 900's switch 7, 900 in da pipe, and sliding rails when he was like 16. like 5 years ago. back when he was at the top of the game. when he is healthy and on the ball he can throw down, and represent.

Dude falling is progression. Besides he lands a lot of sick shit. If you don't you will never learn. I mean jesus christ just because they show em falling a lot doesn't mean he sucks. Its like saying you cant fall or somethin. I mean i dont kno about you man but when I fall and don't get hurt I get more confidence. Whatever.

i dont see a problem here. alpine cowboy asked a question and stated a problem (a little overstated, and then others backed up a counterpoint. no need to flame, problem solved, no biggie, hibbert is sick.

If you're makiing a ski film,and shoot a lot,you usually get a lot of bails on film,by ALL the athletes. You could make a section likes Hibbert's to anyone. EVERY skier has had their share of bad falls,but I think Berman really showed the people how hardcore Hibbert is.

It would have been even better to see like four or five of the sickest tricks he bailed in his section nailed in the end. That would have crowned it all..

He has a point though, I mean I'm the first to say ''Dan Cloutier blows goats'' when he fucks up in the playoffs... we all criticize other professional sports people, so why do you hardly ever hear anything bad about skiiers? And when you do, it's always the same ones, moseley, tuffelmeyer etc.
Maybe there is a bit too much blind love for pro skiiers; they can screw up too. I wonder why this is...

in forward they just happened to show alot of his bad falls. he doesnt fall ALL the time. He just is a good skier, who takes more falls than other people. Just because you fall sometimes, doesnt mean you suck...

He is insane, his crashes are hillarious. Go pick up Balance, Second Generation, or other Level 1 films to see how hudge he goes and how hard he crashes. I would have to say that he does not have the cleanest style. His crahes have defianately helped him get sponsored

hibbert is a sick skier. kills it on the urban stuff and definitely is not afraid to go big. he got a spot at the xgames probably because he did wicked at wsi. (3rd)

im sure hibbert is better than most of the people here, but still, the guy appears to fall more than he lands, and those 'insane' qp hits at superpark 4 were insane, but they were also dangerously stupid, he was goin like 35+ out and goin 8 to 10 ft into the deck, thats just sketch
