Replying to Why must we make skiing move in the wrong direction?
open up your eyes fella's look at where skiings going and how it has the potential to be so lame. I recomend watching the continuum or any early ski movie and then watching like dub-ski or x or war or tbc, and compare the soul aspects of the movies. Where did this whole rockstar mentallity come from? We're not rappers or mainstream professional athletes, were skiiers goddamnit. The baggy clothes, the "steeze", the fashion, its all about the image.......
What the fuck?
What ever happened to not worrying about what you looked like and what gear you have, because when the day's over so many people from all different walks of life shared the same snow you just had.
There is no way for me to change your minds but i talked to my ski coach today who could be a professional skiier if he wanted to but he is so bummed on the coprateness of skiing and how its changed so much for the worst that he chooses to ski for himself. Now you should all ask yourselves, is being a rockstar and "living the dream" really what you think it would be?
just remember i dont give a fuck if any one agrees or not, and in the end we all just ski....
