Nico Zacek needs your help!


Because he's about to graduate, that's why! Here's what Nico has to say:


Dear Newschoolers,

Freeski Pro Nico Zacek needs your help! For his thesis paper for the University of Munich, Nico is writing an inquiry into "The Future of Freeskiing." It would be great if you could find a few minutes to help him and fill out his online survey. In order to thank you for taking part, you have the chance to win one of many of prizes provided by Nico's sponsors: Völkl (Dogen skis, hoodies, long sleeves, t-shirts, polos) Helly Hansen (jacket, pants, hoodies, t-shirts) and Marker (helmet, goggles, bindings).

Check out the link to the survey: www.chibaland.com/nico
Oct. 8: The survey is closed, thanks to everyone who replied so quickly!
Nico will announce the winners of the prize drawing in a few weeks.

 

Thank you for your support! With your help, instead of writing papers, Nico can be spending his time more productively, like this:

OH really!
nice
thats sweet
help him everyone
Just took the survey. Best luck Nico!
damn
done
teehee
i helped him
Wow, someone could use some english lessons
hhaha looks like hes gunna eat shit on the brand ahead of him on that log
DONE
so, what happened to that last big survey we all took? and this shit is spelled wrong in the survey...
"How do you rate the promotion-activities of "Voelkl"?"
Nico's fuckin sick.
i took it also, yay!
and i think the language/spelling is off because it was traslated from german...my guess.
dank
my guess too. and I just took it. good luck with this, and congrats on graduating. Does anybody know what he's getting his degree in??
O snap, we have the same name.

That 1st pic looks sick. But it looks like he's about to die.
just took the survey. Good luck Nico, hope all goes well
it seems like the future of skiing is based on marketing and branding.

Happy graduating Nico!
much better than the last survey on the NS community
i took it yay!

To Shadows: Volkl spelled differently all over the world.
to hagrid: thank you
The reason it is Voelkl above, is because you see those two dots (umlaut) above the o - well that can also be written as oe, so it is not spelled wrong, it is spelled right. Ihr seid doch doof.
sim
i tried but it died half way through...lame i shall try again later
i just did the survey, pretty good, very focused on equipment
sweet
yea, very focused on equipment... i don't actually see how it has anything to do with the future of freeskiing... anybody.
good luck Nico
i wish i could ski instead of school...
mad respect good job nico and good luck in some awesome way you'll help freeskiing
That survey was kind of suspicious...

Seemed like more of a thing Volkl wants because I really don't know how that would help to write a University level paper.
Done.
VOKLE SKIS SUCK
if you want to insult the company, you need to spell in correctly first
hahaha, this is so awesome, Zacek is one of my many favourite skier!!YAY!
I still want to know what happened to the last survey!
thesis paper? is he getting a degree in helping his sponsors do market research? whatever, i did it for the prices.
what i'd love to see is a comparison of what respondants say they value in promotional activities of a company, versus which companies they considered the most 'authentic' and had the best promotions, versus the actual money and effort those companies put into team, events, etc. i bet itd be a nice quantification of just how far peoples heads are up their asses.
I think Nico's majoring in marketing or a similar field, if that answers your questions.
i did it
now that ive used a few mins of my valuable time, i hope i win some free shit
i helped him out.
DeV
what the fuck is a ski that's adjustable in lenght or flex. more specifically a "grind ski"
^innovations for the future! that's what they are!
Nico is off the richter scale.
cool man
All done..good luck with the thesis!!
it´s Völkl
yeah but an UmLaut(the two dots) is pronounced OE(like uuw) so Voekl is how it is written globally
wooo hoo i hope i win
i got this:

anyone?
oh i just read the above comments
Hehee, Nico just got 300 million survey answers.
no work.
i feel sorry for whoever had to deal with all that, NS fucked it up
sick nasty
Im angry for that the survey didnt ask about the need of innovating binding brakes that work both ways...
its brokeenesss!!!
this might have something to do with it. if you go to the hosting page, www.chibaland.com this is the only thing that shows on the page. so i assume the site is currently down and is being worked on.
^so basicallly NS didn't break it!
hahah ya we broke ANOTHER site.
ok. if you are translating german to english or cant type in the letter with the umlaut (two dots) then you put an e after the letter. comes from them in my family's names. voelkl and völkl.
anyways. useless piece of information about deutsch.
^that is not my last name btw...realized it read like it was after i posted it. oops.
THE REASON VOELKL IS SPELLED HOW IT IS IS BECAUSE THE O HAS THE TWO DOTS ABOVE IT THE UMLAUT O. ITS NOT SPELLED WRONG RETARD. LISTEN,LEARN AND SHUT THE HELL UP :) no really tho, its because its spelled in another language, so dont speak before you know.And we know nothing, so lets all be quiet and smile
^ps. I heart you(anoybody who complained about the spelling :)

Did Not Save

An unexpected error has occurred and your responses cannot be saved.

:(
^I got that one too.
Happy to help, so i went in and did it. But at the end I just got the did not save message too, what's going on? Anyway, that survey beyond any doubt was a Volki survey, but lets give Nico benefit of the doubt and say it is also (in some hard to imagine way) for his studies. But he better prove it later, and we better see who got the prizes or his reputation will sink. Otherwise if its genuine, I hope it helps your paper Nico.
so from those questions it is easy to Volkl see Armada as they kingpin to emulate, wrong, they should think more about rossi
Now the survey administrator has 300.000.000 e-mails :)
Armada, Line and 4FRNT are most known for having this strong 'core' freeskiing company reputation. Völkl wants to gain same kind of respect too.
too bad the survey is closed already...
damnit, its closed.
jea its closed
its closed... good luck with the thesis man!!
is e sponsored by suzuki?
closed... good luck man
gayness its closed....
Hey Rizu,you sent 300.000.000 to nicos survey, how?
He need help to graduate ? While thousands of other non-pro skiers have to work their asses of themself to graduate ? Gay
YAY Nico
that ass hole closed the poll!!
haha I'm surprised more people here didn't rip on him for being in college. I thought it wasn't cool to be in college or university. I thought it was cool to sit around and smoke weed everyday?
hahaha im lovin the tree jib
too bad the survey's closed. best of luck nico!
