Cany really make a fully truthful assumption but I feel like siver is one. Like we get it you can spin a tornado in the same direction with a fuck ton of swaps on every rail, no need to act like a 12 year old who just landed his first front 2 in front of the camera.
rant over, but fr I wanna hear who y’all think is cocky. These kinds a threads get the sauce stirred a lil bit.
dvx100filming fish is a art, playing with the little things (angle & vig) goes a long way to improve your shots. you can easily keep someone in frame, but can look terrible with the less you do.
Doob in mouth, cam in hand, smoke in eyes. It’s pure bliss.
in all seriousness it takes awhile to feel everything out, I completely agree. Some shots work with very little, other times moving around and doing what’s necessary to get the desired shot is absolutely needed. My post was mostly satire
this thread is so toxic. kids got some issues, but hes never been a douche to me. the nword thing is yikes, but lets not pretend that up til 2013 every skier wasnt doing that (doesnt make that okay tho)
WoFlowzFunk. Funks from a rich ass part of rochester, kid acts like a hoodlum, and says the NWord on IG live, along with tryna act like he's gangster, has some pretty standard ass style and skinny ass pants

This honestly kinda pains me to say, but I find the high school girl way she tells so annoying. I seriously try to overlook it and I can’t fault her because she is high school age.
I can’t fault her on her competing. She has the pedigree.
This is how I feel stating my opinion on a 17 year old who is a better skier than I will ever be:
weastcoastShe just a clout chaser whos less than average looking, idk why everyone gets a boner over her
BradFiAusNzCoCaThis is how I feel stating my opinion on a 17 year old who is a better skier than I will ever be:
Nah don’t feel bad, what’s Wack is wack. Chances are you’re not clout chasing every second of the day on IG like half these mfs are.
She may be “bettter” than you but “better” doesn’t mean who can do bigger tricks. It’s who has more STYLE. The right people watch skiing for the STYLE. She’s showing the wrong image of skiing but oh well, what are you gonna do 😭
Haha man I started categorizing comp skiers differently a long time ago.
It is what it is. She was smart to negotiate that pro model with faction. I bet she’s killing it in China with her commission.
what irritates me, and I guess I’m getting old and crusty now, is - whenever I see her interviewed or whatever, she has this style of speaking that is very “I know what I’m talking about, you don’t.”. It’s a distinctly young, naive attitude I’ve seen before. I really don’t know how to explain it.
Like I said, I feel like a playa hater saying this. But I’ve noticed it.
Also, I can’t say I wouldn’t have that same tone if I was working with faction, Oakley, fendi, etc. at 17.

Yeah, I don’t associate with anyone who casually drops the Nword like that- at all. In fact I think the next big trend for 21/22 should be holding your homies accountable for what they say and do, in the end it makes us all look like assholes when we let shit like this slide. Like how are y’all gonna ride P-dogs ass for being rich but let this other kook off the hook? Last I checked rich kids making ski edits with their parents money is harmless, but I’d never fuck with a kid who acts like that- and frankly I look down on anyone who does.
Racists aren’t welcome at the sesh, period.
-DanOverall, this whole thread is goofy.
don’t find myself seeing eye to eye with Dan too often but in this case he’s 100% right.
TLDR:/ y’all are witch-hunting the wrong mf kids, and some of you need to find god.
Jemseileen is just a marketing tool, i found it funny as fuck that she wanted to ski for china during the olympics cause that’s just wack
I seriously wonder how much of what we see from her socials is her and how much is her parents/coach/manager. I wouldn't be super surprised if she has a manager who tells her to post this or that or even does a lot of her posting for her. She is undoubtedly a good model but so much of her content seems... forced. I will agree that her style is pretty comp-jocky and many women are more entertaining to watch, but she rarely seems to mess up which I appreciate.

Most folks with a significant social media following or who could be consider 'influencers' have someone who manages the account. I would be very surprised if there isn't someone making a few bucks while they schedule posts and arrange sponser product placements in them for her.
weastcoastCall em out. Mfs who are cocky about shit.

edit: I'd much rather see Eileen & Gus swap to represent other countries, and to give others a chance at making the Olympic team to represent us.

fair points, i’d just very much hate it if she won a gold for china when she’s a born american. I understand she’s half chinese but is she doing it for her heritage or for an easy trip to the next winter olympics?

Pussy move right there. That’s like becoming transgender from guy to girl and then whooping everyone’s ass playing in women’s soccer or something.
Jossi wells- super bitter and angry dude. Met him at Whistler a few years ago and he was sloshed drunk and fucked up on drugs. I really hope the guy gets help with his alcoholism and substance abuse bcuz it really destroyed his skiing career

This came off very asinine and transphobic, what I mean to say is it’s annoying when people abuse “the system” or their identity/heritage just to gain success, fame, money, etc.
saying this because that’s not who I am and I’m not trying to get banned lol

guys, Eileen won two golds and a bronze as a rookie at this year's x games, idk much about her but we can safely assume she doesn't need an easy way to qualify for the Olympics lmao

Doesn’t matter, if Elon musk goes out and robs a bank or does something shitty, imma still shit on him. I hope this analogy is understandable

Yeah honestly good for her, she's probably inspiring a lot of people, both girls and boys, in China, while opening another slot for a talented woman from America to compete.

'One day, I'll be ripping dub cork 1080's both ways like Eileen!' Dreams 11 year old Pingping as she takes a break from assembling consumer electronics to wipe the sweat off her brow.
Love the people acting like America sucks (not saying we don’t lol) but China is a beacon of freedom and opportunity lmao
