so they have been pretty low profile until recently and they now represent what the UK has to offer ski wise, from covering all the UK events to making a movie from last season, to covering the just passin through tour with Wallisch, Walker and Schiller

the edits are sick and NS should recognize them in my opinion

check 'em out!

In the Uk not from the UK. Is Gus actually English or are his parents just from there or what?
Unity should Have it, there a lot of production companies that have orange names that haven't done half much as Unity to keep us entertained. Mind you I do think there is an awful lot of orange names these days.

This thread is another reason why the orange names should disappear.

Originally the idea was to make it more obvious who knew what they were talking about. This way when people had a question about a certain product (say Orage outerwear) they could pm the account with the orange Orage name and be pretty confidant that they were going to get a useful reply. This way they could avoid making some thread and getting a bunch of different answers from people talking out of their asses. Likewise if an account with an orange name made a thread about some industry news, you could tell the difference between that and camO's sense of humor.

Great Idea and really could have made the website a better place.

But like any great plan it went to pieces when it hit the playing field. I don't know whether the admins forgot you all were teenage pro/trend whores, or if they had a fleeting trust in your maturity, however you all were obviously not ready for something that would make sense and turned it into a status symbol.

Plus you have a bunch of accounts with orange names where you can't even tell why that name is orange.

Yeah, I do think at the very least orange names should have a line in their profile that very plainly states what exactly they do.

I agree to some extent but that's it, Unity represent what the UK has to offer to the rest of the ski community round the world. There are no other major production companies really, Unity cover all the events in the country and make edits and write ups for them. I'm pretty sure if you asked them a question they would get back to you with a legit answer. I don't want them to be orange because I'm a 'Pro ho' but because they put effort into their work and they can benefit the rest of us

yeah Roockley

Unity are without a doubt the one production company who never fail to pump out baller edits, without fail, not only featuring UK riders and UK slopes, but big events like the freeze and Austrian open.

They're cool dudes and deserve the props, so let em know your love NS.

They're not EVERYTHING the UK has to offer.

But they do a good job of representing the hardships we face with our shitty weather and low lying geography, and the filming and editing is very good.
