This has been said many times, but he broke 2 of his vertebrae on Big  Bertha, and he is not competing for a while, and may be be done with park skiing.

I know... but I thought he'd still be with rossignol. He was like THE big player for rossignol.

thats wack if they took him off just because of his injury, just like cr and salomon. fuckin sell out companies (if that even is the reason).
anyways candide is the man and allways will be, wouldnt mind seeing him in tanners or pollards films.

you can't be the big player if you don't compete.

WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG

thank you for being completely WRONG.

until skiing wakes the fuck up an starts giving riders props for there video segments skiing is gonna keep on being gay as fuck!

competitions shouldnt not equal a sponser keeping you on its team. Look at snowboarding surfing skating.

why is skiing so gayyy

RIGHT RIGHT RIGHT RIGHT! Thank you for being RIGHT!

I tried to make this point in that thread about a skiing World Circuit or whatever. I honestly could care less about comps, the only one I'll watch is X-Games.

Also, I was just at Stoneham where they were hosting the snowboard World Cup and let me tell you some of those riders were straight up faggots.

Comp scene is bunk!
