Dude. Nobody holds a candle to Pollard. Did everybody see him ski that face switch in ski movie 3. He goes unnatural better than anybody, and he got's original style.

I fully agree that Pollard has some of the best and most original style in all of skiing, in Happy Dayz, Tanner Hall and Evan Raps are kinda rippen it off..
You should never get your style from watchin' MTV, all you'll get is fashion no originality, what clothes are the wearin'? what drugs are thay on? If i acted like them would i be someone? No. ~ Sublime

Pollard is good ya, but you cant say that there is a #1 skier out there cause no one is the best at everything.
Pollard is amazing at lots, but I wouldn't say he is the BEST at any certain aspect.

Man. Pollard is my favorite skier. Mostly that he really reminds me of me. Ive had many people say i look just like him, I wear headphones all the time and have similar style on snow. hes just way better. This was before i ever saw him in any movie or magazine. i know it sounds like i ripped him off, but I really was always really laid back. And i am the most uncompetitive pearson in the world. ski awful at comps and stuff, cause it anit my thing. i really like just like filming stuff from my backyard, and stuff like that.

Being Irish, I guess I should resent the Notre Dame nickname 'The Fighting Irish.' After all, how long do you think nicknames like 'The Bargaining Jews' or 'The Murdering Italians' would last? Only the Ironic Irish could be so naively honset. I get the feeling that Notre Dame came real close to naming itself 'The Fuckin Drunken, Thick-Skulled, Brawling, Short-Dicked Irish'

there are so many skiers that are better than pollard. Personally i don't like his style, he just does small tricks big and slow, Kinda like a little kid read a book, with small word and large font and reading real slow.

Chris Collins is definitely awesome, and along with Pollard those two are the most down-to-earth out there.

And I hate how everyone is ripping off Pollard's style... that's just shit. A style is only good as long as it's unique. That stupid dumbshit asshole C.R. Johnson should stick to his bio 1260s and not touch something that isn't his. And I'm not just making random profane accusations, either... I have full confidence in my opinion of C.R. Johnson: the biggest asshole in skiing.

I dont think you could every put a numerical order on the top feild of pros, because they are just that. the top of the top. you cant name a number 1 out of them, they all have aspects that are so amazing in their own way.





ever wonder if iliterate people get the full effect of alphabet soup???

Pollard is in stereotype... which is also a pbp movie....
that's why.

as for the best skier ever, well that would be Nancy Green, she would kick pollards ass

I like Pollards style, but i mean still. They make it kinda like you can only style smaller tricks or at least it's easier to style them I guess. My favourite hit to watch is Tanner's D-spin 1080 in Happy dayz, that is the fuckin deadliest trick I've ever seen, I love it. Smoooooooth

I like this new emphasis on unnatural spinning and such. While I cannot possibly imaging myself ever pulling a d-spin 1080 or a bio 1260, it is somewhat feasible that I might one day be able to throw down simpler tricks unnatural. I'm glad skiing is getting some tricks that are difficult and technical without being completely insane.

Tanner grew up in Montana which has some good biug mountain stuff. So yeah I definitaley think he can ski big mountain. But I dunno, hes such a stoner, it would be suicide to get into some of those no fall zones as fried as he gets.
sacrifice, to some its just a word, to others it is a code, what matters is the colony, he is willing to live for the colony, fight for the colony, die for the colony.

i don't think its really right to say that u have a 'favorite' skier. becuz i can guaruntee u that when u watch a movie u love mass things about mass different people. everyone had their own plus's and minuses.
