Tracksuits, wavy arms and glasses? What is this nonsense?! Bring back Evan Raps FFS. At least he could ski without looking like a monkey with tourettes.

For me the bunch reminds me of what the Joystick crew did a while ago, even before butters, handrags became a trend as now. Of course the way The bunch edits their video is different but still, I don't consider their way of skiing really innovative.they just took what joystick did , improved it a bit and mostly marketed it well.

snowfinderI like what they are doing but after 25 vids of them dicking around on groomers it gets a little old.


What do you wanna see?

nick_GAPERAgree with this. Not a fan, but it makes freeskiing what it is! It's an expression. A passion. The more relatable skiing is to get more kids into the sport, the better. All styles are good styles

Well said!

ozzywrongOMG finally some one says it.. Seriously all these dudes can't ski to save their lives and every single person dick rides them .. Adam Delorme .. Please come back and save park skiing.. TWall and Jossi have good ski style but these bunch guys and all the arm movement trying so hard to be "edgy" gtfoh.. Bring back gorilla Steeze .. For the record Evan raps was one of the most stylish skiers ever same with Julien and Mik d.. Even Pollard and Pep idea was so much better than any of these Shiity unstylish edits these people are dropping with the fucking gay tight pants and fucking hipster harts and the hands flying around ... Oh it's fun to ski like that.. Pfff none of you can ski big mountain to save your lives .. Hack skiing with no technique go do some race drills and learn to use your edges.. You can call me salty all you want but it's the truth it's ugly as fuck skiing .. With not even an ounce of good technique attached to it..


It's your opinion that you don't like these skiers, you don't have to hate on em just cause you don't think their finess is stylish. Go watch Vishnu's recess and honestly watch how comfy and flowy they look. true finess

Forget him, I wanna see butters on boxes. Not onto them, on them. I have no idea how you'd pull that off, but that would be hype. So like a moving press, jesus yeah that sounds fucking tough.

Not everyone needs to be doing the gnarliest shit all the time. The bunch are skiing cool as fuck and setting new trends and leave them to it.

You can still wear your saga skittle suit and ignore them

This "problem" doesn't seem to exist in the backcountry/big mountain niche of skiing.

Why are you such a salty little prick boy. Skiing has progressed since whatever videos you watch and there tons of styles to fit a variety of niches. Some may be cooler than others in your opinion but they ski the way they ski for a reason. They think its dope. So why not let people ski the way they want to ski? some of you guys are making me laugh
