ok. here's how I see it. Tosh, first of all, congrats on your 1440. yes it is a big spin, and there are not a lot of people that have done them. I can see why you would make a thread to tell the NS community. But you do not need to go around and brag and claim that you are the shit. No, I cannot do a 1440, and I can not spin all 4 540s. In fact, I hurt myself trying to spin a 5 yesterday. Does that make you feel good? That you are better than me.
For a lot of kids, skiing is not their whole life. And a lot of kids look up to "pros," and I use that term loosely, like you in the sport to inspire themselves. Now apparently you are only 16, and although I am not a fan of large spins, and the whole "spin to win" lifestyle, I can still respect that it is a difficult trick that is done by few. Now being 16, I can see that you are still a bit immature, and you want to claim your trick. But you and I both know that you are better than 95% of this site, so you don't need to start arguing with the population of NS about how sick you are. I think that as a "pro" in the sport, you should be acting more mature and make it so kids strive to be like you, and give them something positive to look up too. Though you are young, you should be more responsible and less of a jerk to people not as good as you. And before you go on hating me for this, don't think this is just another post hating on you, because I respect what you did, but you know I'm right.
and I'm not even going to start bringing 9 in to this
