Proof that Wallisch and Dumont just killed New Wave
I swear if this means that white kids are gonna start calling everything gangster, wearing face bandanas, and throwing gang signs after landing 5s again i might vomit. All for tweaked grabs and afterbang, but skiing as a sport is white as fuck and y’all look stupid pretending it isnt.
teamdummyOh for fucks sake. Do what you want. But I sure didn’t feel the internet shake when the Bunch dropped their last edit. There’s a reason for that. It’s buffoonery. Fucking dancing and spinning around and flailing arms on every landing. They’re doing it wrong. Period. People are gonna be laughing at their videos in 10 years.
I can see that their skiing makes you insecure. It used to make me insecure too. (you can find my hateful comments buried in old ass bunch edit comments and threads.) It made me feel invalidated. And that can be scary in this sport, all your hardwork looked upon as worthless because of a belief that attention should be focused towards you rather than something different than what you do.
Dont worry dawg. One day you'll Hopefully see that you are valid. your hardwork is worth it. you just gotta understand that when you ski, you do it for no one but yourself, as if you were the last person on earth, you'd ski in only ways that make you happy. And once you have that mindset, then NO OTHER SKIING WILL MAKE YOU INSECURE. You'll only feel Love when seeing Skiing. All Skiing.
CatdickBojanglesAnkilla on NS > No Ankilla on NS. Welcome back we missed you.
Suhhh dude. I dont check NS as often as I should. I just got back on to Write an Article and I have 24 fucking Notifications hahaha. Appreciate all the attention TBH.
little_1337Very well said, I agree. It's just like how people would shit on thug skiing for wearing baggy clothes because it looked "ridiculous" now everyones shittin on tight pants and kids who are stoked to be skiing! Maybe everyones just gettin old or I'm out of touch...
Exactly Dude. Times are Changing. Embrace it and Grow and Flourish. Or Hate it and Stagnate and Wilt.
I'm so old and out of touch that I had never even heard of new wave until I saw people referencing it and "The Bunch" in the comments below the Wallisch/Dumont video.
I'm glad they're having fun, but there's nothing in their videos that particularly impressive in the way that pretty much all "Newschool" skiing from 1998 onwards was. I don't think there's any defensible basis for claiming that this is simply a matter of old people hating on a new development in skiing simply because it's new. I can remember being in a room full of skiers well north of 40 when Mosely threw down his 360 mute grab on his gold medal run in 98, and all of them lost their minds. They'd never seen a trick that combined technical mastery and style like that, and I had countless experiences like that over and over again at TGR/Matchstick premiers, on chairlifts, etc. I remember taking a lift ride with an 80 year old, passing over the park, and seeing him react to someone throwing down a rodeo five by spontaneously blurting out "Sweet mother of God! What the hell was that?! That was incredible!" No hate - just awe and appreciation.
There's something different about what I saw in the one and only "new wave" segment I'll ever watch on purpose. The guys in "The Bunch" are clearly talented, but they frankly seem so disinterested in putting that talent to use, and so unexcited about what they're doing I'm not sure why they bothered to film it. The whole thing seemed like another manifestation of self-conscious irony, which has been a tedious cliche masquerading as an ethos for what, 20 years now? This time on twin-tips. Great. "Hey! Look at us. We're landing....sideways. Get it? People used to try *not* to do that - but now we're doing it...on purpose. Get it now? No? Okay! See the pants we're wearing? They're really skinny and *not* actually made for skiing...ect, etc, etc, etc, etc." Yawn.
I have three year old and eight year old girls who basically have no frame of reference other than going skiing, and when they saw the "Resurrection" edit (on mute) they were instantly blown away by the energy, the speed, the air, and the athleticism that they were watching even if they didn't have the vocabulary to describe their impressions with anything other than a "Whoa!" every time the edit cut to another incredible trick. The stoke radiating out of two world-class athletes reveling in their talent and savoring every stomped landing was absolutely contagious, even to a three year old.
When they saw "El-something or other" they were just confused. "Daddy - what are they trying to do? Are they skiing that way on purpose?" I was just as confused as they were, so I didn't have a good answer. The best I could come up with was "I think so, but I'm not sure why." "Me neither - let's watch that guy in the red and white pants again!"

Great influence on the young generation. NS skiing will always have its roots and those willing to continue it.

I hope you're going to show them the OG Slumdog Illionaire so they can learn the proper gun handsigns.

I'll take Shit That Never Actually Happened for $1000, Alex
It definitely isn't anymore that's why I rock the old kit with tall t. There are hardly any half decent outerwear companies in the game rn, new wave style blows and the og companies have lost what made them dope for the most part.

Well basically swerve skiing, the majority of the vishnu team, and wearing overly fitted gear/tracksuits. There are talented new wave / swerve skiers but I just think that the vast majority of them doesn't look as good.

I mean Tukka Porri rides for vishnu and the rest of the Forre crew has similar style to him. If you can't enjoy the style of forre you got something wrong with you. I think swerve skiing has mellowed out this season and if you watch vishnus team video, the deep end, you'll see that theres a lot more hammers and a lot less swerve than years past.

Vishnu definitely has gotten a lot better just still not really my thing. Its definitely impressive to watch I just would never try to go for that style in my skiing.

I like the majority of the guys that ride for J like Zahner and stepp. I know Carson Kerr (one of the guys from super unknown last year) and his style is sick as hell. So like that's more of the style I'm into, little bitta swerve lota big simple bangers.

I just see that as normal skiing, which is sick. No thug or insane swerving, dudes just being technical and stylish.

Moseley did the dinner roll in the 2002 Olympics because it was what he wanted to do and because he thought it was cool, even though the judges penalized him for it. The guys in the bunch are doing the same thing now - they don't care if you think what they're doing is cool. It's what they want to do. The only difference is that this time around, instead of being open to new stuff, you've taken the place of the out of touch judges.

This post simply pwns.
great post man.
The reason so many people loved watching kobe bryant play isnt because he made baskets, its because he had the natural athleticism on par with a snow leopard and it was aesthetically pleasing to watch kobe move and jump like he had catapults in his shoes.
the el noire shit is all about simply making baskets.
But watching tammy and street credits is closer to watching kobe bryant jump 4 feet off the ground to do a slam dunk.
athleticism is the drug everybody is searching for, not dorky brainfart creativity.

Let's do this and shut the F up about Bunch and other flimsy-handers. Let them Rest in Peace, the swagger and afterbang has killed them for good. If not on mountain, then morally for sure. They are not and never will be as good as Simon, Tom, Tanner and other big guns of 200X era.
Resurrection has already become instant classic, it's right there on top shelf with Slumdog Illionaire and Team America JOSS edit. El-something - not so much and never will. Edits like Resurrection is what people wants. Real speed, real skiing, real tricks, REAL DEAL performed with REAL STYLE. And not dressed like homeless guy from thrift shop.
Damn y’all really getting heated over peoples style they choose to ski with. No one is forcing you to shuffle your landings or wear track pants chill out

from the way people describe it I'm pretty sure magnus is going into peoples homes and forcing them to watch Elnour at gunpoint
also keep the new wave hate coming boys, every time I hear it I just think about Mango winning real ski and laugh. Saying new wave is dead is just announcing that you're out of touch with the scene.
