well, I could post any video that didn't have rails or jumps in it and it would be progressive then. Or I could post any backcountry/big mountain, or hunting yeti (which I prefer more than any park video, no hate to big mountain peeps or nimbus).

No need to be a little poorsport about the way skiing's going...it just is. You'll see people branching off into all of the areas, some more "creative" than others.

Ok, in all seriousness, I actually liked some of that video, a few of the grinds were nice. But why would you ever want to see pretzels gone? I agree that seeing someone 630 of a rail is almost always hucked, but I like to see a 450 off on occasion. I think pretzels will always be a part of skiing. I don't like spin to win, flip to win is sometimes ok. I feel like in a few years that once people mellow out on the spins and flips that everything will balance out. Most runs will consist of styles with a few bangers to keep things moving. At least I hope thats where skiing will go

Seriously now, the only person I've ever seen do a sick (ie steezy) one footer or rollerblade grind is me.

no poles looks good sometimes, and some of those grinds were sweet, but everything that kid did looked hucked, which is weird cuz he was never really spinning, i mean like hucked in a rail sense, where it all just look so forced and not natural. Also, no poles didn't help, that looked weird too.

when you make the thread title in all caps are you claiming that this is the best style and how all skiing should be?

Everyone is becoming gay with the paranoia about tricks...it just shows weakness in your own skiing, you know...

Ha, how was him spining constantly on rails and boxes with HORRIBLE style make it better than any pretzel? I would honestly rather watch someone do a hucked 630 out then a sketchy double switch up.


And if you want "style" spins off rails, peep tim mcchessney, kid makes 630s off look amazing, and even made a 630 on look good.
