In a movie I prefer both. I'm not a fan of Candide where all he does is tail blunts. The only exception is Pollard cause he's so god damn cool.

If it's super hucked, then cross. if slow and smooth, you dont cross.

i like how c.r. johnson does that either
a) just no cross or
b) cross them, but not like so huge, and more subtle

like in wski106 when hje does those natural and unnatral 5s with the corsses.

It depends on the skiers style. If they're more upright, than cross, if they're more gorilla, uncrossed. Like tanner hall in ski movie 2 versus CR Johnson or Shannon Schad

i think it looks better doing the cross but i think it would be more fun to just float and go uncrossed

crossed generally looks better for a larger spin. like a switch 10 blunt is sick as hell, but i find for slower, more floaty spins, uncrossed / no movement at all looks crunk as fuck.

i fucking hate this debate. Both are super sick, pollard and candide are both good skiers in case you didnt notice. Mix up your bag of grabs as much as possible. If i see someone hit a whole slopestyle course with half stylie crosses and half stylie no crosses, then I would think that was sick. unfortunately there has to be a debate about everything in skiing.
THEY ARE BOTH SICK
