gorilla steeze will never die. forgetaboutit

You know what I really wish would die? Half-baked interviews in ski movies. People who regularly throw their bodies off large objects tend to be not so smart (go figure). So why on Earth would you want to hear the pseudo-philosophic drivel of a stoner who has hit his head too many times?

Yeah its weird to watch kids who act superior and claim really hard that they've been into freeskiing longer than others by what their first twin tipped ski was, but in reality those kids are knowledge-less clowns that look very pathetic to those who were skiing park before there were even twin tipped skis...

Basically kids like you, who are jackasses that have no perspective of their own sport or themselves and have very little respect towards other kids who are in the exact position you were in a few years ago.

The whole, "I'm an asshole" thing has been done before. Try being original next time because what you're doing now is not working out for you. Hell maybe even go back to being a sensitive little bitch because you were REALLY good at doing that before.

don't see what point you fools are tryna make, cool youve been on this site a long time, and others are younger. teach us wise one, its really hard to learn 12 years of history. also its really cool to be an old member on a site dominated by 16 year olds, in a sport dominated by 18 year olds, you must be like the best skier on here. oh wait, your old.

Do you mean that Cork 3's replaced the Lincoln loop? If you're trying to say they are the same thing then you're wrong

Remember when you would bitch and complain when someone would call you out and call you names for saying something incredibly stupid? You remember when you would send half-assed angry messages asking why someone was being mean to you or why they're so mean to everyone else? The best part about all that is that you now try to copy exactly how they would react. The reason I'm responding to this post is because it struck me as incredibly ironic.

I could careless if people dusagree with me for this, but before you go ski park and try to look like a thug, learn to carve a decent turn first. People have just lost sight in the back bone of skiing, and just use it as a way to be "cool" rather them for the actual love of it.

I was unclear sorry. I meant busy patterns like this. patches are in right now I'd say. Also saga is at a position where they can dictate changes in style.

You can add that to the list. The ability to ski any and all conditions, all over the mountain, is a dying trend in skiing.

It's funny, the majority of skiers try to emulate snowboarding trends from like 4 years ago and end up taking everything way too far.... I had this crazy idea that maybe, just maybe, you should wear the same style of clothing you normally wear everyday you aren't skiing when you go skiing so you wont be lying to yourself and hiding some wanna be gypsy/gangster/hesh/skittle thug alter ego. Just a thought....

I just had this convo with my dad the other day. We only wear this stuff because we think it looks cool. I guarantee 99% of the kids that wear baggy thug looking clothes (such as my self) don't actually act like thugs on the mountain. I can't really say the same about the people wearing more of the hesh style because most of them are into that whole culture in their normal day lives. Skiing style is just style but it's obviously going to be different from what we wear on the streets because it's cold up there
