Team America

Hey Guys,

Just wanted to give everyone a heads before any false rumors get spread. 
JOSS Team America this season is going to be Myself, Simon Dumont, and Bobby Brown.

I am going to be competing as the Team America Rookie.  This was my first season competing in the X-games and accordingly I can still be considered the rookie for our team.  Although I competed in JOSS last year, I feel me being the rookie for our team is a great way to put together as good of a team as possible.  It also gives bobby a chance to come out to Sweden with me and simon.  He deserves it so much, and I couldn't be more stoked to have him on our team.

There are tons of awesome skiers out there, and tons of american skiers that absolutely kill it.  Yes there are other skiers that deserve an opportunity like this, but no one as much as bobby.  He's slayed the comp scene and it's gonna be awesome to have him as a part of a film project like this. 

Just wanted to give everyone a heads up! And let you guys know how stoked we are on our team for this season.  It's gonna be an awesome contest!
Hope you guys enjoy the videos cause I know we'll enjoy making them!


-Tom Wallisch

Gonna be honest i think thats mad gay... 3 x games skiers? doesnt matter if youve only been to x once. i saw a shit load of amazing kids on the JOSS team NS entry vids that could all be the rookie. this is super sketchy. Gratz Bobby this is sick for you, but i think its unfair to every rookie who really could have had a shot.

bullshit. that's not even close to being a rookie. that's like saying 'I play in the NHL and played for team Canada at the Olympics but I should still be allowed to play in the world Juniors"

You technically could do that. Patrice Bergeron played a bit in the NHL, then played for Canada at the world championships, then played in the world juniors.

Alex pietrangelo played for the blues last season and played this year for team canada. Regardless i dont think wallisch should be the rookie. But still who cares its gonna be such a sick edit, I couldnt care less about teams i just want to see some sick skiing.

World Juniors are just 20 and under, of course you can play if you've played in the NHL.

http://www.edmontonjournal.com/sports/saps+world+junior+roster/2308970/story.html

article talking about how NHL teams don't let the Canadian team borrow their players.

It's possible, it doesn't happen often, only usually when the player does the 9-game tryout with the team, then gets sent back to his junior team.

Think about it for a bit. Not many people in the industry have heard of him, so this is a chance for some exposure.

I think I saw tom wallish in a ski movie about 3 years ago doing every trick invented, what was it turbo? . and like the guys above, nobody knows about him and he doesnt have a promodel boot coming out with shoelace tounges on it. this will be his chance to get em! because if skiing needs something, its shoelace tounges. loopholes make the world go round. and maybe this is his chance to win some money, because he has very few sponsors with fat check books. YAY!

Tom is going to be on team america no matter what, so whether its as "the rookie" or captain america who gives a crap, Under the rules he is able label himself the rookie just so Bobby could join the team, are people missing that?
