I think these things are really killing the sport. Progressing the sport way too fast. Whats next triple corks? Im sure theres already ppl trying..

yea. this guys right. we should cut progression all together. lets get back to leather boots and bindings with wooden skis. thats what skiing needs to save its self.

I guess if water ramps hadn't been around for 50 years, your argument might have some validity.

If you are a hardcore backcountry skier than only shreds the gnar and never skis park then I can totally see where you are coming from. Park skiing isn't really skiing though. Jumping on skis and spinning is aerials. Sure you have baggy clothes on and can do steezy grabs but at the end of the day as soon as you leave the ground its gymnastics. Training with airbags and water ramps isn't going to help you shread a gnar line on a pow day. Its going to help you in the air and thats it. So no, I don't think that airbags and water ramps killed gymnastics. If you think that airbags are killing skiing and you aren't arguing that park skiing is killing skiing, then you just dumb. lol

Fuck I would love to hit a water ramp. Would seriously be like the coolest day of my life. I'd huck a superman double all Dumont style first try.

First off, you sound like an uneducated idiot who obviously doesn't know what he's talking about.

Secondly, there are people trying triple corks, next time you make a thread, use your brain.
