HANDDRAG DUB 7

Ill have to rewatch it again, but I was not super impressed. From what I saw while scrolling through my phone was just a bunch of jumps over stuff in the streets. I know I saw a few jibs, but from what I gathered it was just a comp skier who built jumps in the streets and did comp level tricks over them, without directly interacting with the environment. Feel free to put me in my place, cause like I said I didnt give it my full attention.

His street edit after his injury a few years ago was way better.

My vote is for either Peyben Or mango for this years real ski. Mangos handplant/flip was ridiculous and dont even get me started on that nose manny backflip

Was waiting for this. Somebody to come in with the usual ABM hate "He's a comp skier and everything he does is shit". Honestly that part was pretty nutty, and that dfd Z rail was aesthetically pleasing as fuck. All but like 2 shots were sliding rails.

Was actually surprised that more people weren't hating it for no reason.

If you actually read I never said I hated it, I never even said I disliked it. It just didnt stand out to me personally. Like I said I thought Peybens or mangos was better. Its not black and white, just cause i dont love it dosent mean I hate it.

dude did both way switch 4s and hit 2 of the craziest rails ive ever seen, and did some shit that was also very "creative" (that royale on the rainbow was insane). you kinda seem like the type of dude who just blindly hates everyone who does comps for like zero reason when the reality is, those kids tend to be better skiers on a technical level...

No need to get your panties all bundled up. Gave it a second watch with full sober attention and it was a lot better than i thought. That Rainbow feature was disgusting. That being said Im still gonna have to vote for mango.

Some of you guys are way to defensive. sheesh

The fact is that if we had Mango doing the same tricks on the same features as ABM with his arm waving, everyone here would praise it for being "the clear winner". It's just that many have such a bias towards "comp skiers".

Theres definitely more praise to new wave skiing. I think it depends on what your looking for in a video part. My favorite trick from ABM's part was probably that 3 surfaceswap safety grab on the rainbow. It was creative and clean and it was a weird trick that you dont see very often. But IMO a lot of everything else was something I could totally envision someone else doing, maybe not with ease or with the same style. But it didnt pop to the point when you shake your head and your like wtf?!. But I definitely did that for a lot of mangos tricks.

NarcopusYea but also.... mango

But mango had maybe 3 shots that could be considered as impressive whereas every shot of ABM's was on higher consequence features doing insanely more tech tricks. Creativity and flair are excuses to stick to safer features doing less tech shit.

ABM absolutely threw down.
