Silly kids. Don't you have middle school finals to be studying for?

there are much better things to do with your life than spend it ruining others. -wh@t

Skiing is an art form, an escape from all things bad, skiing is perfect, skiing is my obsession.

Love is the amazing shivers you get when you're silently slipping through trees on a powder day, that overwhelming feeling of contentment where your heart beats a little faster and louder. That unmistakable grin of happiness that you can't shake off. It's unconditional, it's unbeatable, it's compassion and it's adventure.

coming from someone in the industry... thats pretty unprofessional

It's not because I have some affiliation with a ski company that I do not have the right to have an opinion of my own... Kid has mad talent and has a great bag of tricks, but I just do not enjoy watching him ski and I do not like his style. I agree with the robocopskier picture. That said, he still is so young that he has plenty of time to develop his style and make things look good. Have a good day my friend.

prime example of why some people dont like him, he's got that jock mentality of a skier, all my favorite skier would never say they train, they ski, just my opinion.

1. If all the athletes do future spins in one contest, there will technically be no one left to receive a prize (at least, in our reality). The skiers who podium will be transported to another time in the distant future, and therefore will not technically be able to receive their prize. -Steve Stepp, talking about how Joss 2012 will end

Since when has it been cool to not train as an athlete? All professional athletes train whether they want to admit it or not. No professional hockey player would have ever made it big without being on ice 4 times a week. It's the difference between recreation and professionalism.

Okay I figured it out, he DOES HAVE style. However, it just hasn't evolved yet, at this point he's still super young, and he still hasn't grown out his what I call, "teenage lankiness." Next year I predict he'll grow into his body and become a little more coordinated with his tricks. He has the "style," just hasn't learned how to use it. It'll come in time, just like it has for everybody else.

Well stated.

But addressing everybody saying that Nick and Bobby have no style, I think it's because they're mostly contest skiers. I know that Bobby filmed with MSP and rocked that, but even all that was resort rails and a big air jump: The kind of stuff you'll see in a contest. I haven't seen Nick in any movies this year, and never seen him ski urban or backcountry or anything like that. So my conclusion is that they're trying to progress their skiing to the most extreme limit that they can manage, in big parks and jumps, in order to surpass everybody else in terms of the technicality of their tricks. Some people like Parker White and Ahmet Dadali spend the majority of their time filming urban and unique stuff you won't see at X Games or in the Dew Tour. It's the way they spend most of their time, so they learn tricks that will help them excel in the filming scene, while the 'robo-skiers' are learning bigger, more technical tricks that will score higher in big contests.

SKI THE EAST

I tail tapped a gaper who was standing on the knuckle yesterday. It was a nice firm smack right to the helmet, definitely the high point of my day.

well, then your only hope is to get full tilts, I hear they cure goggle bang.

sure he trains and works hard, but every time i see him ski, he is having a blast. its still training, but its not like it is a forced thing, he just loves skiing all the time

There once was a goon from nantucket,
Who tossed a cork 9, and he stuck it.
He saw the rep from line,
who said it looked almost divine,
But then told him to try not to huck it.

Bobby had two banger segments with pow and urban in them. Here is the extra footage from Bobby's stuff with MSP

I don't mind watching his edits, he's got some nice tricks. He'll develop a more distinct style with time, I'm sure. Nothing to get your undies in a bundle over.

At this particular point in time, however, I think his style is still lacking something that sets him apart from other skiers. Example: watch a Talkington or Martini edit, then watch a Goepper edit...

style/stīl/
Noun:
A manner of doing something.

Thats an incredibly broad definition for a word. Style is a manner of doing something. That same thing can be done in so many different ways and interpreted in just as many different ways. If someone does something that you dont like then you are more keene to a different style. Saying someone has no style is an incredibly dumb statement. You are simply not a fan and supporter of the individuals style. If you can not understand this then you should take a step back and think about it before you accuse someone of "not having" style.

We participate in a sport that is so open to interpretation and this is going to help create so many different styles. Everyone of us is doing the same thing, we are just not doing it in the same manner.

This is my one serious response to these dumb threads because i am sick of people being so uneducated and ignorant. So tired of people hating on the sport we all love.

Have fun out there kids, skiing is the greatest sport out there, simply because of how open ended it is.

I don't feel like reading through a bunch of people shitting on Geopper because they don't like his style, so this may have already been said. Everyone develops their own personal style. Your style is just the way you look when you ski. Some people have a smooth style, agressive style, hucked style, the list goes on. Stop saying Geopper has "no style". Just because you don't personally like his style doesn't mean it doesn't exist.

you don't know nick goepper you stupid fucking kid. just because you can't spin over 540 you think that it's all about steeeeeze man and bluuuuuunts and you're fucking jealous that you can't win dew tours.

you think that nick can't do really slow cork 7 like the rest of ns? i'd bet money that he can, but he doesn't because he's not a little pussy like you and he actually likes to get better at skiing and profit from it, unlike you who probably gets your mom to buy your season pass and lodge food every day.

some skiers are pushing style and creativity, some are pushing technicality and ferocity.

The kid is 17 years old, and in the last year or two, he's gone from being roughly 5 feet tall to 6 feet tall. The same thing happend to Chris Laker, and the same threads were made. Now Laker has developed a dirty style that a lot of kids seem to appreciate. Give Goepper another year, and I'd be willing to bet he'll acclimate to his body and work out some sick style too.

Also, these threads are getting boring.
