Emma_Watsonnaw you're simplifying.

calling such tricks that are pretty exclusive to himself, especially consecutively, to rack up letters is pretty bogus mate


I couldn't disagree more.

The thing I've found most entertaining in this recent cup is skiers calling creative or unusual tricks which their opponent has never tried before or isn't comfortable with. So many times this has resulted in the opponent pulling a sick trick out of nowhere, under pressure, and with their own style. That really showcases the insane level of talent and progression these skiers are capable of. And when they make such tricks no-one gives the skier calling the trick any shit - they just talk about what an insane game it was. It's only when they don't stomp it and get a letter that people suddenly start bitching about it and acting like a particular skier is suddenly a bad sport when literally the only difference is whether their opponent stepped up and stomped it or not.

Exactly like this game: Oystein calls underflip on 27 out- a really tech trick which he has dialled and A Hall tries it but fucks up. A Hall likewise calls some tricks he has dialled, and then Oystein fucks up. Then people like you come on here and bitch about A Hall simply because he won. You've basically conned yourself into believing that he's played the game differently to anyone else because you're ignoring what has actually happened.

I don't really get it.

Emma_Watsonwell it's a god damn shame to see skiing become about winning, rather than about having fun.


Why does this come up every time a skier calls a trick someone can't do? It's not like Oystein was calling triple corks, AHall was calling creative as fuck shit which was cool. I don't know how you can reason that someone shouldn't call a trick because the other person can't do it. With your logic I should be able to play Wallisch and since I suck at skiing Wallisch shouldn't try anything.

the only shame is to see people like you bitch about people calling tricks their opponent can't do. The point of a slvsh game is to win and that doesn't mean they aren't having any fun doing it.

Kimbo Sessions Slvsh Cup at Klappen anyone?

Not sure if anyone has seen the various photos over social media lately, but it looks like the slvsh crew and a lot of dope skiers (henrik, torin, kim, joona, noah m, woodsy and even jon olsson) are there right now :)

Maybe not a full tourney/cup, but I hope to maybe see some really good games come out of that event with those skiers there.

.lenconCan we get a game with Karl now? The closest I've gotten is a troll from Steve.


Everybody messaging is telling us where to do Cups and who to play games with, thank you, you've got some great ideas. We really like that UFC concept from the recap. We are down for 90% of your ideas, but the riders/resorts need to be down too. Please message them as well as us.

Chances are not many resorts even know what Slvsh is, much less have budget available for it, but if they get a ton of messages about it, they'll at least look into it. Cheers

LOL, Joss and Walker are actually being cool and supportive who are the actual people who run SLVSH. Then you have leaches like yourself who know a few pro skiers and you're being a condescending douche because you know information we don't. Congratulations, betcha that makes you feel super duper cool

Firstly, Evan has a point. The cups, and any event for that matter, take a massive amount of organising. That's not some kind of secret ski industry insider info, it's just common fucking sense. And the bigger the cups get, the more 'official' they will become and the more work they will be.

Secondly, and I really do try not to rise to this stuff, but who the fuck are you calling Evan a leech. He works hard as fuck for very little reward to make this website run how it does, to give other content producers the opportunity to make some money for their work, to help the less well known players of this industry grow. Feel free to disagree with his opinions and his way of putting them across. Hell I definitely don't always agree with what he says. But understand that there are plenty of skiers, producers and other industry folk who would never have had the chances they do in skiing without the work he puts in to NS. He's the complete opposite of a leech.

Edit/disclaimer: He'll also think I'm a fucking idiot for posting this a) because he is one of the few people I've met who genuinely doesn't seem to give a fuck what people think, and b) knows that responding to dumbass internet opinions always makes things worse. C'est la vie.

Then he should enlighten them, instead of being a condescending deuche about it.

I see no problem in people suggesting where, who and how, especially not in this specific thread.

You missed the point. I'm not telling SLVSH to do a cup at Klappen or Breck, or wherever like most of the kids on here are doing. I'm saying that the SLVSH crew was at Kimbo Sessions and I'm sure there were some sick games that happened there for the event that we can look forward to. I don't know if there will be a cup event for that and really don't care...we just have something good to look forward to (I'd hope) after this last cup.

So the Slvsh brackets that people filled out, any idea when we'll find out the results to those? Or who the winners at least?

Mad props to the Slvsh crew for putting on the second Cup and coming out with the recap video which was a great way to wrap it all up.

I know everyone has been posting where they would like to see slvsh cup held, and I'm sorry to add to that, but what about slvsh cup Andreas' back yard? Wouldn't need to close to public, and it would be relatively easy to change the park between rounds, making it slightly more interesting.

Obviously there is still the problem of getting athletes organized and funding provided, but avoiding the pain of closing a public park would make things go a lot smoother

Some food for thought, and I know there has been a lot but bear with me here.

1)make a summer camp/tourney themed hoodie
2)Make a season Slvsh cup/tourney (like on golf for the Fedex Cup where the player/rider with the most points or wins gets a prize or something. Have like 24 riders be in the season cup or something, and have some games outside of the cup be played on the side
3)Make a game mode where each player has 10 tricks to set for themselves, and have a sheet of tricks where the harder the trick the more points you gain, and the rider with the most points wins
4) Because money sounds like a problem, make an auction with all your gear at the end of the season to raise money for SLVSH, or better yet make a kickstarter page for donations or some shit like that

I like the idea of having a list of tricks specific to each park. Rather than points, you could use the money aspect of in on out with the list of tricks to motivate the players to do certain tricks that might be cool or funny
