Srsly All I heard was OMG his part was soo fucking sick. After I watched it I was like Meh.
The whole segment was just a repeat of rodeo, strait air, 360, 180. Even I am more than capable of those tricks. The only trick worth while was his S-rail shenanigans.
Don't even get me started on his style. His powder turns with his steezed out unzipped jacket reminded me of MFM so much that I almost threw up. Next step is cruzing powder in a wife beater.
COOL BRO
^ agree to disagree on which is harder
but there were two shots of a 270 disaster on that urban, one of wallisch and I can't remember who else
And the kid who said an open jacket is unfunctional and unstylish or whatever is just straight up wrong. You've probably never skiied on a real mountain before but weather changes in a heartbeat. Also, think about the times when you've hiked a feature...I know for me I get super hot and almost always open up my jacket. And why are you focusing on his 'look'' rather than his skiing, he could be dressed like a fucking caterpillar as long as he's throwing good tricks.
Plus, for future reference know that the people who are a part of these movies look at these threads. I know its the internet and all, but have some common courtesy/manners and try not to insult skiers who are pushing the sport and putting together movies for your enjoyment.
Ahmet segment was not my favorite even tho I love seing ahmet ride.
I think open jacket skiing in powder is stupid and yes I didnt like the shots with the open jacket cause it made the shot look weird to me.
All that being said, he slayed it HARD and there is no way you can discredit what he did. Maybe it is not what you like the most but to some other that is exactly what they want skiing to be.
Are we seriously judging someone over the clothing they wear? Come on. I don't give a shit if he's wearing briefs and a hawaiian party shirt. I have not seen his part in Eye Trip yet, but I can tell you that I went crazy when I saw that urban S-rail transfer. Don't tell me you didn't get chills from that, but back to the clothing point. You're seriously going to judge a talented skier by what he wears? It just sounds stupid when you read that question. Let's not nit-pick at clothing styles, let's pay attention to the tricks.
What is your point? That will be my first peice or Jiberish other than the hat that has shrunken. I'm no trend whore if that's what you're implying. Honestly, I desperately needed gear. Everything I have boughten has been used by other people. My helmet, poles, ski's, boots, gloves.
Skiing to me is skiing, my friend.
