all you people dissing snowboarding. i will respect you opinion but only if you actually are knowledgable of snowboarding and are not just a skier crossing ski terminology over to snowboarding. they are two different things. i've been baffled at how ignorant some skiers can be of snowboarding.
i've met guys who are oblivious of the difference between backside and frontside (unnatural isn't such a big deal anymore when you think about it that way eh?). are you even aware of when they are riding switch or not? though it may 'all look the same,' there is a sublime beauty to it that skiers have not yet paralled and is the envy of gurus such as eric pollard. it is subtle, yet as impressionable as a bomb.
admittedly, style is in the eye of the beholder, but before you knock it, atleast understand it. i think skiers have more possible avenues open to them, but we haven't been able to properly take ful advantage of it yet. soon...
and snowboarders looks infinitely better on rails (for now). we're catching up though, air rail and pipe. it won't be long... speaking of which, anyone seen the new scotty wittlake ad? the beach rail? fucking NUTS!

Yeah, that beach ad is fucking sick. The one where he hits the huge rail and ends up in the water?
Download the pulse trailer and have a look at some really stylish snowboard rails.
As for Devun Walsh. I think he's probably influencing skiing almost as much as some ski pros. He indirectly influences it of course. Alot of the best pro skiers look up to him and what he is doing for snowboarding.
