Skiing is no longer real

Skiing used to be a pure sport filled with adrenaline and excitement. With all of the new technologies and equipment skiiing is no longer the same, it is too easy and not how it was meant to be. Skiing of the future is only going to get worse and the skiing of now is nothing compared to what it used to be.

your dumb as fuck I could put you on a brand new pair of benchetlers with the dopest dalbello boots line poles fks bindings and take you to places your nuts would shirivell up and die

i dunno how good of a skier you are but there is soo much gnarly shit out there that the technology itself will ever take away from the thrill

i suppose footbal is being ruined too by better technology in helmet construction since concussions are less and less rare?

so you think rocker and light construction makes it too easy? the point of removing the limitations of skis is so that we can remove the limitations of where skis can go. its not about doing the same thing over and over again, only easier, its about using the better technology to go places that are harder and bigger. it makes the difficult stuff possible, not the available stuff easy.

this thread is by a guy who thinks progression is bad and everest is not a mountain.

i think it should be required that people like this get their balls clipped so they cannot reproduce.

I didn't read the thread but why the fuck are so many kids worried about the direction of skiing? It's a individual sport...You can take it or use skiing in anyway you want.

skiing is too easy?

sorry, whats your name? i dont remember seeing you in any magazines or movies.

and what, we were supposed to keep on skiing on wood sticks?

drivings just not the same anymore, i dont use a crank to start my car.
televisions just not the same anymore, it has COLOUR!
wars not the same anymore, the whole world dosnt duke it out.
computer's are not the same anymore, there is no slots for 3.5" floppy disk's.

technology is constantly improved to improve things, not make them worse.

im thinkkkkkkkkkkinggggggg, your amish. if so, get off the computer and churn me some butters.

Will the Real Slim Shady Please Stand up please stand up please stand up.... Okay we're gonna have a problem here. Y'all act like you never seen a white person before- Jaws up on the floor like Phineas opened the door and started wooping his ass first and before they first were divorced throwing her over furniture. It's the return of the o wait no wait just kidding, he didn't just say what I think he did he?

Ski technology has gotten better, we can all agree on that. Keep in mind though that shaped skis now allow average skiers to carve much easier and ski things they couldn't have 20 years ago. This is a double sided coin however, because now the top tier athletes can push themselves and their equipment much further. A lot of people can carve and ski powder with greater ease, but those who were already proficient at those skills can now go faster, do more tricks and continue to raise the bar.

This whole argument about the new generation not being as good as the previous one is as old as time itself. When hot-dogging first became a thing, it was seen as reckless and stupid by some, people said similar tings about park skiing when it rolled around as well. Hell, I'll probably complain about the young guys when I'm older as well.

[Intro]
I'm playin' [?] Biatch!

[Verse 1: Dolphin God]
Elmo came with that AK-47
Nigga, you don't hate on me, I'll bring out that 11
Bring out that AK, 40, lil' 7
I bust it up on you, nigga, you look like presents
And you don't mess with me, you look so ugly
I tried to keep it clean 'cause I look so smuggly
I got a bunch of swag and your swag's at zero percent
You got a big nose, nigga, you ain't got no scent

[Chorus: Elmo, Big Bird, Snuffleuffagus & Dolphin God]
This is the song, la-la, la-la, Elmo's song (Woo, woo)
La-la, la-la, la-la, la-la, Elmo's song (Ocean Gang) (I like it)
La, la, la, (Dolphin Gang), La-la, la-la, la (To think he wrote this alone)
La, la, la (Dolphin, Dolphin, Dolphin God) (Catchy) (Dolphin), La la, la la, la
This is the song, la-la, la, la (This Dolphin God), Elmo's song
La-la-la-la, la-la-la-la, Elmo's song (Dolphin God) (I like it)
La, la, la, La-la, la-la, la (To think he wrote this alone)
La la la, La la la la, la (Catchy)
He wrote the music, he wrote the words (Ocean Gang for life)
That's Elmo's song

[Verse 2: Dolphin God]
I'll bust you up with that AK-47
I got two cups just like that 11
2012, here we come, got that AK
2013, we ain't gon' be fake
We was never fake, I've been never fake
I've been real all my life and chill all my life
Gettin' this money and this paper
You can't mess with me 'cause you is a dumb-behind shaper, nigga
[Chorus: Elmo, Big Bird & Snuffleuffagus]
This is the song, la-la, la-la, Elmo's song
La-la-la-la, la-la-la-la, Elmo's song (I like it)
