I know Wallisch gets paid very well now, and deserves every single penny of everything he does for our sport.  But the last company I want to see on the best park skier of all time is Scott.  I already know, I am a hater...

I am definitely an idiot, I already know....  The style of our skiing, is our image.... is it not?  When you don't know who someone is in the park, you automatically judge them on their image.... if you don't, your a liar.  That's what keeps this sport fun, its competition that is a damn good time.

Haha you can air punch me if you want.

Skiing is hyphy, life is hyphy if you want it to be.  Wallish is hyphy.  Wallisch is underground.  Wallisch is not a sell out.  Wallisch is a very good skier.

Please shut up. There is absolutely nothing "hyphy" about skiing. I could care less if you listen to rap music, i do too. But please get the fuck over yourself. There is nothing hyphy about skiing. And maybe you judge kids on their image, not me. All in all, fuck you.

"Although mostly Bay Area, getting "hyphy" is more of an Oakland word defining getting ignorant, drunk/high, and quite violent within a group of friends."

???

can you please slowly explain to me what hyphy form of skiing is? thats the closest i could find to a definition of hyphy that doesnt involve music...and that doesnt seem like any skiing ive ever seen...

Well people definitely ski drunk/high, and the gangster kids act violent, most people are ignorant in some way.  Ignorant high/drunk gagster acting kids must be hyphy I guess.

I am not talking about the wikipedia definition of hyphy.

Skiing has its own definition of it now.  It will die soon though, just a trend.

Hyphy = acting stupid, going dumb, being rediculous/irrational.


Sometimes the act of this is quite fun. Why do people get hammered and do dumb shit? same difference. im for the hyphy movement but i see where you guys are comming from.

You might as well just stop now because you like hyphy style and looks like the vast majority of people on NS don't. Then let it be that way. You have your opinion and everyone else has there's, stop trying to convince people that your way is cooler.

Exactly..... the "hyphy" movement originated from the  "C-Crew"

THIS HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH THE MUSIC OF THE BAY AREA.  You are looking way to into it.  It is just a fun way of skiing, and a certain attitude with it.

Hahahah.  I LOVE THIS THREAD.

You people are good shit, I mean it, not sarcasm.  My last hour of work definitely made my day.

I LOVE SKIING and the freedom that this sport is.  So many good/different opinions that keeps this sport such a damn good time, and friends for life.

I tried to be nice, but now you just sound fucking retarded.

How is Wallisch not "Hyphy" anymore? because he decided to get off an amateur ski company for one of the largest and well-known ski companies and for a much larger salary (I'm guessing)? So yeah he got on the scene by posting videos on YouTube and acting "Hyphy" with all his ski buddies, that in no way means that his style has changed by going on a different team.

And I bet he got sick of that stupid shit after getting popular.

i might get ripped a new one for this but i think wallischs style has passed its prime, dont get me wrong he does everything flawless now and his technicality is sky rocketing to the best. However i always liked when he wore the brown ronin suit the best. Just my opinion dont get too heated ovr it, hes still one of my favorites to watch.

Are people distraught because Scott's Marketing, is not "Hyphy."
Or are their products just terrible in other people's opinion?
I can see how their marketing does not coincide with  Tom Walnuts, ergo, selling out. 
And one person, rode Scott, and supported his claim as to why they suck.
Anyone else?

The name is TERRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRIBLE.

Ive never been a fan of their products either, always felt they were lower grade.  That is just my opinion though.

sounds like you ski for ALL the wrong reasons, who gives a fuck about the name Scott, what about Smith? do you hate on them too? or Line?

ski for yourself, not for what others think about you

if we are going on pure name most companies are not to cool.

Smith, Dynstar, Fischer,  Black Diamond, Salomon.... (no offense to any of these companies)

Really are these names cool,? not really, I actually like Scotts stuff. As for the movement of hyphy skiing, well I dont know what people call it the gangsta movement or thug movement or hyphy or what not, it is just a word. As long as everyone is having a good time does it really matter.

Judging one on what they wear is actually human nature, go to the store with a mohawk or with a tall tee and see how people look at you. It is the same on the slopes. I have read so much hate on this site and most of it involves judging someone. If you are in the 1% that does not judge then that is great.

Lastly, Hopefully Tommy Walnutz will help Scott become more of a core company then they are. It is going to be interesting to see what happens this year and next with Scott. I am stoked he is on Scott.

scott is a company that has the financial status to make changes in our sport. No hate for those with independent ski companies, I think thats rad. But lets get realistic, there isn't that much money from those companies to go around and make anything happen in our sport. Scott might not be cool and underground to alot of people on here, but they are creating products that are keeping the sport alive and not shoddy.

I don't see why Tom can't go on a bigger company. It makes sense for him to move on to a bigger company who will help him grow as a rider. Zomg Scott sounds gay, suck it up its just a company name.

this kids arguments are boggling my mind. I've never seen someone so worked up about the name of the company. The name is scott, its a big company thats been around for a while and is not going to alter the name of its company to accommodate your ridiculous hyphy movement, which really has no correlation with the ski community.

ahhhhh!!! finally somebody agrees with me, i was saying this to my friend the other day and i got bashed, I think he used to have his own steeze and it had its flaws but since then he has developed what I like to call "superpro" style, style that guys like Jon and Sammy has. I would much rather watch someone like Paco Garcia, Blake Nyman, Jon Brogun, Seth Morrison, Sean Pettit, Witt Foster or Charley Ager ski. All of those guys have completley distinct styles that are there own. None of them have this perfect superpro kind of style and are much more entertaining IMO to watch. Face it tho, skiing is not hyphy, never was and never will be. It was all a joke that got taken to seriously by 12 year old kids. Skiing is the most fun thing ever and I love it sooooooo much but we dont need to act like bay area rappers when we do it. Just go play dress up if thats what is fun to you. /rant, sry bout the hate
