Doing triples on skis = Quitting skiing.

Based on the Saga account's history and the fact that you're supposed to have good public relations, you're not the brightest humans either.

Shut up. Its a ski company, not a fortune 500. Why do they have to be so professional? who actually cares? Kids? No.

Agree! His moves were so clean! It takes a lot of time practicing what Russ has achieved!

Thats McChesney and I think he rides for Dragon goggles. In which case they are likely to be one of the 13/14 models.

Bobby Brown's triple in the Grand Bizarre was on point. Very smooth. It was a triple cork as well rather than the usual triple flip with a 180.

I'm not saying Sammy's wasn't sick, it has been my favourite triple so far.

Not saying that they're better or anything, but give some credit where credit is due. Those are just some examples.
