GeorgiaJibberdub 7 off the trashcan blew my mind
supersquidIll have to rewatch it again, but I was not super impressed. From what I saw while scrolling through my phone was just a bunch of jumps over stuff in the streets. I know I saw a few jibs, but from what I gathered it was just a comp skier who built jumps in the streets and did comp level tricks over them, without directly interacting with the environment. Feel free to put me in my place, cause like I said I didnt give it my full attention.
His street edit after his injury a few years ago was way better.
My vote is for either Peyben Or mango for this years real ski. Mangos handplant/flip was ridiculous and dont even get me started on that nose manny backflip
theabortionatorWas waiting for this. Somebody to come in with the usual ABM hate "He's a comp skier and everything he does is shit". Honestly that part was pretty nutty, and that dfd Z rail was aesthetically pleasing as fuck. All but like 2 shots were sliding rails.
Was actually surprised that more people weren't hating it for no reason.
supersquidIf you actually read I never said I hated it, I never even said I disliked it. It just didnt stand out to me personally. Like I said I thought Peybens or mangos was better. Its not black and white, just cause i dont love it dosent mean I hate it.

It wasn't though.
supersquidIll give it another watch then
fghtoffyrdmnsdude did both way switch 4s and hit 2 of the craziest rails ive ever seen, and did some shit that was also very "creative" (that royale on the rainbow was insane). you kinda seem like the type of dude who just blindly hates everyone who does comps for like zero reason when the reality is, those kids tend to be better skiers on a technical level...
fghtoffyrdmnsdude (that royale on the rainbow was insane). ...
LukeTheWaffleIt was a tourque btw
fghtoffyrdmnsfuck oops its been a minute since ive watched some bladin
PeeDogThe fact is that if we had Mango doing the same tricks on the same features as ABM with his arm waving, everyone here would praise it to being "the clear winner". I'ts just that many have such a bias towards "comp skiers".
NarcopusYea but also.... mango
