So why does'nt he have a full part in war? He is the sickest kid around, they even use his shots for the intro. He does have a bonus section, but still. Anybody know why he does'nt have one?

i don't think it has anything to do with how good you are, but rather how much footage you get for the year. last year dave chricton, chris b, and... someone else shared a part in x=10 when they were so hot right then.

Well, Jacob had atleast as much footage as Andreas Håtveit and Sammy Carlson judging by the Bonus part..

They usually don't give new guys a full section in their first big-name movie, Sammy seems to be the exception

i dont think u guys are barking up the right tree, it has nothing to do with footage. at the time of filming, jacob had jsut got on armada so they had already spent thier film budget for the year, ean they had already paid all the film companies to film with thier atheltes. u never notice that when every one switxhed to armada, msp didnt film with them the next year. or that everyone who films with msp either is or eveentually ends up skiing for either salomon, k2 smith or helly hanson

alright then... if that is the case then explain something like crichtons small shared segment in x=10. it's not like he just got on dynastar.

crichton still had a decent sized part of the "shared parts" of the song if thats what your saying it was like 90 percent crichton and like the rest of the ten shared by treadway szocs thovex and benchetler

i think it was a little bigger, but not by much at all. honestly though.. i haven't watched it in a while either. and if crichton is a bad example, i'm sure i can find others. i know vinnie dorion had a shared part when he had been on salomon or a million years already. i'm just trying to say the reason isn't because he just switched companies.

There is also the fact that chriton did not have much footage for X, sometimes u jsut get screwed in the way of not enough filming in a deason, no one is goin out to screw ppl. Look at iannick b, and Sarah burke, neither of them got that much filmage this year, but they were still healthy, use some common sense

no shit. the point i was trying to prove is that the only reason wasn't because jacob was new to armada.

Jacob has always been a talented/promising athlete, but he didn't "blow up" internationally until he switched sponsors...
He deserves all the recognition he gets though.
