A few weeks ago I worked a promotion for Fuel TV here in So. Cal. I have always wanted to ask these people why they rarely if ever showcase hardcore skiing? So I asked the Vice Pres. of marketing "why?" He said that skiing was not on their radar to air their 6 main "action sports" You can prob. guess those. So basically skiing in Fuel opinion is not core enough, or not cool enough for them. This is total Bullshit!
-- Freeride skiing is one of the most intense and sick sports in the world, if not the sickest! So I think everyone on NS should call them and tell em whats really going on in the mountains. Demand Skiing on FUEL TV! Ask for the marketing dept. or the programming dept.Toll FRee 1(888)4FUELTV. www.skipunx.com Call Em!

if they replaced a few of those goddamned surfing shows with skiing i think it would be a move for the better. surfing is cool, but 8 hours a day of "surfer dirk diggler surches for the perfect wave over the summer of 1972" fucking blows.

i never thought id see paintball and tv and they play that so im sure skiing has a future on tv...we have a tv show here in NH in the winter called "must ski tv" theres not a lot of freestyle but its a good way to pass 2 hrs on a weds night

ya ive seen them they are really good. fuel used to show ski films but the songs were all changed and made them really gay. they show way to much surfing on fuel and i think surfing is gay

Yeah FEUL TV has really gone down the shoot considering all they play is like surfing and skating and stuff. I mean its cool to watch but there are so few skiers on that show. Insane cinema presented one of its showing about skiing but thats about it

All they showed was propaganda and 1242(only a few segments, pep's kristis and maybe tanner's, I can't rememebr). They also showed WSI from 04 and that was cool, but that's it besides offtrails stuff.

i cant take him[liam downey] seriously cuz his name reminds me of that downy bear from back when i was a kid -d loc

I don't deny there are bad things in the US right now, hell, 51% of the country to be exact. But god damnit, our country being fat is NOT a problem. I do't give a shit how fat people are. hell, fat kids are harder to kidnap, that means our country is safer.

Yo they also show Untracked which is a show created by TGR featuring Skiing and Boarding mainly with some surfing trips. Real sick. I am just finishing up an edit to send in to Project Detention, im so stoked. Check the rough edit in the edits video section

when i eat at bucky's burritos they always show surfing videos, and i wish they would show skiing, cuz i think its more exciting, a lot of the surfing stuff gets pretty boring quick, but i guess a surfer would say that about ski videos

Skiing won't be popular until the retards realize that $75 lift tickets are above the reach of most of the public, $800 skis are ridiculous, and $49.98 for a Ski Punx hoodie is a fucking crock of SHIT.

fuel is the best thing going, and they definitely dont hate on skiing. in fact at killington this year they were filming the saloman oasis tour. ive been waiting to catch the footage cuz me and a few other skiers slayed the s rail.

buy the fuel channel its like a dollar a month.

they do play occasional skiing, but i agree, i think they should move away from souly board sports

its kinda one sided
