You guys suck. Why hate on no poles? It looks sweet. Riders who don't use poles just mix it up a little bit, how can you not like that? Some people are dumb.

Or, 44% of ns could think that One-footed grinds are the coolest things ever, thus no-poles could never stack up.

to be honest skiing with no poles does look dumb.. it just leaves you woundering where to put your hands, and you just let them dangle and flop to the sides as you turn.. with poles you have better balance and you can get aa more steady and smooth stance... no poles will never catch on

Even andy mahre rides with poles sometimes. its not like you even have a reason you are all just being trendy and trying to be like andy mahre. when you can actually do shit then you can ski with no poles. If you are a snow blader its just gay. Please try to find a good reason that you should not ride with poles.

It helps balance you out and it helps turn in back country. It also helps hit stupid fuckers like you right in the head. Reply, BITCH.

yeah, but riding without poles forces you to be a more complete skier, demanding you to learn how to balance using primarily your legs and core. REPLY, BIATCH

skiers use poles for a reason actually a number of reason skier who dont use them should chop off thier cocks and turn to snowboarding. if you dont ski with poles your gay so why not go all the way and castrate your self. others wise shut up and except the fact that no poles is gayer than mj giving an 8 year old a bj

Poles are sometimes required in major competitions. Poles help supplement core balance and help whip yourself around in the air. Poles can be used to grab things. Poles can be used to save yourself from falling off a steepass cliff. poles help keep your body centered. Poles can be used to keep a place in line. Poles can make funny whistling noises. Poles are standard and are therefore NOT TRENDY and help probe for rocks and other such things in the back country. Poles Can Kick Your Ass. All hail the pole. See if you can keep up DIRTY SLUT. Hi im 5'12" and 8 1/2" I love long walks on the beach, candlelit dinners and french poetry.

Just because your tiny brain cannot fathom a new and witty response does not mean you should give up. No one likes a quitter.

i think u need to chill out man...no matter what u do, someone will think its gay...fuck em'...PERSONALLY...i think 1 foot grinds are dope, and dont overly like the whole no-poles buissness, but thast just me...why am i dumb becasue of that??? i just dont like the feeling of it becasue i have tried it before, and it looks to simple to me...but again, that is only my opinion, so just chill out man and do and think what U want, regardless of what other people think.

Thats cool if you want to ski without poles, i just think it looks stupid and takes away from skiing, makes you look like a blader/boarder not a skier. Poles are a universal skiing object, and they are part of the technique of turning, and you dont have to use them if you want if thats what u want to do.

trendy...

hmmm i think that despite the fact poles can be used for a lot they are superfilous and uneccesary... Maybe they including mahre are following the suit of the originators of the "gorilla style" who also havppened to not use poles very frequently back in the day..
