think about how much talent it takes to move your body in such a way to make everything look so good

i <3 pollard. I like his style, i like watching him, i like that he progresses the bc, the park, etc... so ya, your at least the minority. but i guess i understand your point, and everyone has their own preferences.

I also like him because of his outlook on skiing. In his segment in Push, he says something along the lines of:
"A lot of people are just going massive and fast, and I like that as well, but I just like finding lines that have a lot of flow to them..."
which I think is a great way to see the sport. I can dig him, and im not going to hate because you dont like him. People have their own styles, and its cool if Pollard's not yours.

pollard's style is so chill i love how he seems to float every trick. He can do like rodeo 10's etc. but he would just rather go out and ride how he wants to which is super floaty and stylish. I also met him at sushi village in whistler he's a fucking cool guy

I shudder to think about the skinny skis we'd be trying to ski in pow if not for people like Pollard and McConkey...

after his 'lifestyle' segment in yearbook (i think, maybe focused) i really stopped liking him, i thought he was a gay hippie. however, his segment in push redeemed him and now i realize that he is awesome.

dude he said the exact same thing as you did, but with only one character. i think he's the one saving bandwidth.
