Bobby Brown was a dam good skier and he podiumed so why he did now? His pull out game was quick and painless(That's what she said). He can still throw triples so why is he now focusing on filming, one a fis skier aldehyde a fis skier, once you in the game there’s no pulling out right? Well apparently wrong.

whats your guys thoughts on this

Seems like he now rides for Crosson Skis. In french "Crosson" would mean "masturbating" at the first-person plural

Yo, I haven't seen anything official of Bobby Brown retiring. So is it real or no?

I did see that he posted about going to NZ and skiing for the first time since his knee injury, but then there were no posts from new Zealand or of him actually skiing. Hope all is well

Just looked them up. Turns out they carry a lot of high-end gear that would be far out of the budget of the average skier. Charging almost $1200 for a pair of park skis that are awfully narrow compared to 99% of the park skis you can find pros and consumers using on the mountain.

I'm all for high-end skis such as Folsom customs which are handmade, but park skis? We all know you're just going to bash them into concrete and no amount of " Top quality edge material" Is going to stand up to that abuse. Park skis should be cheap.

Do you want to send some over to me? I think Bobby is a great skier and it seems like the Fis is screwing him over, he did a triple "backseat as the FIs would call it" AKA having some steeze, and got like a 79 score.

Whether he'll compete again is unknown to me... But the way I perceive it he may (and should) be taking the same route as the majority of the Stept crew. Filming/cinema seems to be the simplest conversion a pro skiier can all make to a enjoyable, profitable career in the real world. I'm only 24 and can feel the effects of this shit on my body, and i can't throw down / eat shit half as hard as these guys. They've all progressed the sport so damn far and each will have their own lasting impact on skiing. For Bobby or any of them to continue to risk their shit for the little bit of money they may win at contests just seems ludicrous, id rather just see them being successful in other fields and/or put out slightly more chill video parts like he did with "be water"
