thats funny, i dont remember saying anything about andy, but now that you have brought it up, why is it that andy uses poles when filming? maybe because he knows what is best for the sport, and yes every skier needs to start reping skiing like it should be, oh, and your too cool for skiing, you think snowboarding is rad so do that and never come back to skiing you fucking homo

Poles are cheating sticks, skiers should learn to ski well without them if your a racer you know what i mean. A shit load of freeskiers have a racing past. But as far as skiing with out poles, i say leave it to the Aerialists. My 3cents worth, Nick.

drop the poles for a bit, learn to ski with out them, dial in grabs with out them, then if you want, pick them back up again, you probably will be a better skiier and thank your self for not being a close minded prick. Sometimes it's not for steeze but for learning and practice.

When you get good enough without poles you can ski just the same or better than if you had them. I like to ski around with one hand on my cock and two fingers in my ass so it really makes it nice not having those pole thingy's in my hands. Now can we stop taking about this shit?

Well, I am yet again going to call you out. While I agree with what you said, you apparently, don't. What's your opinion on one footers again? I'm interested to see how you get out of this without looking hypocritical.
Please, correct me if I remember wrong.

1 footers are a park rat trick...shit, i havent touched a park in my 3 weeks of skiing so far. go ahead and 'progress' rails when the last thing they need is to be slid. oh wait. nevermind...stay away from pow. keep up the one foot.

Depends if you can ski with poles and still have style. If not then try to ski with poles to get the style down. Basically always use poles.

I wouldnt say "million dollar question" but "$50 Question" b/c thats about the price of a pair of poles I think.

skiers without poles remind me of little kids needing their parents to help them onto the lift as they struggle to get from the line to the loading area

Good try... Sooo sliding rails regular is also a park rat trick? Because that is what I make of what you just said. Don't try to get off of the point- what is your opinion on one foot slides?
My point really is, why are you sitting there telling this other guy to grow up, when I have heard the same sort of thing come from you?
Now I totally respect your skiing, but maybe you should just let that do your talking for you as well.
By the way, I have never ridden pow ever. In fact I hate it with a passion. I don't even know why I chose Kicking Horse over Whis 4 years ago. Must have been the reputation of their rail park.... Don't assume.

and dont assume i ever assumed anything. i never said a damned thing about you not skiing pow. maybe you should read a bit better...or not read what i say at all. its not like what i do has got me anywhere. maybe my opinions could be some secret form of advice...?
