Look for the article to be up shortly on http://www.jon-olsson.com in the news section (im writing it right now)

But quick summary of the day....Jon stuck two more dubs today, switch rodeo to underflip 9 and to 10

New trick is dubbed the "hexo flip" marking Jon's 6th double....and crossing off his largest goal for the season, a sw dub. Grabs included Japan and mute i believe

PICS and article should be up by the end of the night

not to be a lamer flamer claimer. but the direction that somebody takes off does not change the fact that he/she is flipping and spining again and again. now what jon is doing probably does not look super hucked or ugly. but if the sport is headed that way then a few things can happen. A) sport "progresses" in the direction of the more rotations the better eventually turing us into aerialists. B) kids die. sport dies. C) everyone has to have money to train water ramps and such to be on top, leaving only the very wealthy in the sport. D) im dont feel like continuing this rant, you get the point

your a dumbass, just cuz he flips and spins doesn't mean its aerials. our whole fucking sport is based on fliping and spinning. aerials is based on flawless, uniform technique. jon has a unique style, rediculous smoothness, and incredible innovation - to compare his tricks to aerials is straight up retarded. all he is doing is bringing the best things in freeskiing to a higher level. one which i garuntee you will never reach as such a fucking close minded individual.

We are already at that point, in fact, pretty much every professional sport is like that.

Jon's sick, might as well push the limits while he is here.

sorry, you must not be able to read. if you try again and maybe you'll see i never once said what jon is doing is ugly, i said it probably wasnt, i mentiond that thier was a chance that spins/flips keep increasing that skiing could possibly become aerials, where the highest spins/flips win.

and what knowledge did you base that last sentace on?

once again. if you actually read the post, it will say that i thought is DIDNT look like an aerials trick.


or you could just skim over everything you see, and jump to conclusions.


sorry to seem harsh but c'mon, its not that hard to finsih reading a post before replying to it.

F) You cant do them and you are jealous.

I don't care who you are. You are a lamer and a flamer claimer, Let him do what hes doing (its not as if you can stop him anyways). Its something new, its something cool and hes getting allot more ass than you are out of skiing. If somebody can push something in a direction it has never been, WHY THE FUCK NOT PUSH IT. Just think how the world would have been if Columbus decided "yea that shit out west is way too progressive for me, ill just stick home and have some bangers and mash."
