Was it impressive. I think so. Simply put Andy Mahre is a solid bet for the rookie of the year award!!!

If youve ever zeroed anything over 20 feet, youll know its not as easy as it looks

Andy worked on zero spins since way back in the dayz, i bet doing that for him is just as natural as a straight air exceptthe fact that you might get bumped by the jump... the kid is sick

I wish they weren't called zero spins, they make you think it's some big trick and it's just not moving (don't get me wrong it's hard as hell to do that) but I wish there was a better name for it. Also I am glad that they are calling spinning rightside and leftside now, not natural and unnatural. Also I am going to stop saying switch, we can't steal shit from snowboarders

that would be wrong. since cab is switch unatural. and stop this shit about "oh no we are copying snowboarding" just shut up, and go ski. i'm so sick of that everyone on ns tries to seprate themself from snowboarding so much. it's skiing not politics or some other talking shit.

how is it not a huge trick, in my opinion, huge zeros with a nice grab are some of the sickest tricks out there

Yeah zeros are so intense! You are basically blind the whole time you are in the air, it is the only trick where you are like that.

yeah i think some of his shit looks really steezy when he isnt using poles. some people can really pull it off, but who really cares its bout what you want to do. if you dont like poles its all good, its not like you use them in the park
