WEAK!

Simon's tricks are so played. Misty 7 & 10. Cork 3. Switch 3. Aside from some rail stuff (which is a little more impressive)....that's it

Seriously what's up with all this hate? If you have skied with simon you'd see how hard he rides. He's a damn good skier. Quit hating on someone better then you.

I haven't seen this movie but in general I think this problem comes from the fact that Dumont's skiing is so exposed that you see everything he does a million times. It's not that he isn't evolving, he is (look at his parts from a few years ago). It just can feel that way.

agreed, why you guys would hate on anyone who is a good skier is beyond me.  I think a lot of people are missing the point.

I didn't like his part either. 5 different jumps and that's it...
I just don't get why he doesn't throw some of his older stuff, like truck 5's or the $$$ sw7 with nosemute from Push (JOI). Best sw7 in the game till Lolo did that screamn.

its not that we are jealous that he is better, its just that we are getting tired of the same shit from him year after year.  And he is fake as fuck

he is really good but i think if he learned rodeos he would take his tricks to the next level.

Truth. He also has a lot more style than many people give him credit for. Maybe he's not throwing down dub 12s, but what he does throw, he throws amazingly well.

I, for one, am glad he's not part of the "spin to win" camp, and prefers style instead.

Oh, and cork 3 is a very difficult trick to do correctly. Just because it's a 3, doesn't make it any worse.

yea, typically when I get annoyed by seeing multiple threads my first reaction is to go on Google and find a picture of Al Gore

notice the crazy-inverted cork five tails in that segment ^. Seems like everyone is doing those these days and that seggy is like 2 years old.

you do realize that he does throw doubles in the pipe and on jumps in a couple edits, right?

look up the area 51 xgames training video with him and colby west just for one example ( this was last fall/winter)

and i know that he was learning dubs last summer in nz with tanner. i know there are videos but i dont know the exact names...

It doesn't really matter what the fuck you think of his tricks because he's still won X-Games more than you have or ever will.

I'd watch Simon's Forward seggy any day over his seg in the new Poor Boyz flick. He slayed back in the days of that neon orange hunting hat.
