I just started trying out manuals/tailpressin on funboxes and shit, but i need an opinion, are they cool, or just fuckn retarded.

-this comin from the guy that backseated a safety once.
Friend-'Dude, i just got a 130 on my iq test'

i guess it would depend,maybe hitting a box switch and doing a switch 180 and landing on a tail manual would be pretty cool

yeah. i think it looks cool when they land drops really back seat and tailpress for a bit because of the steep landing. if people started doin those on purpose that would look sick.

I am not doing the grabs because I am getting a thrill out of touching my ski-JP Auclair

Manuals are sick, being able to take jibbing to flatland takes skills, utmost respect.

Thats a ridiculous question. If it feels good and/or is fun, then do it. You shouldn't be doing something or not doing something because someone thinks it looks gay or thinks it looks cool. thanks for taking skiing in the entirely wrong direction

bro, snowrider is right. it's not about wheather it looks cool or not, it is about how it feels and to some extent the difficulty of it. i have duct tape on my glasses just because id rather have skis than sight

Snowrider you pbly have never been on a competition. I know the guy who wrote this, and he's tryin to see if he can get an edge with flatland tricks at competitions. If you are serious about comps, then ure gonna do some stuff that you don't like doin. You got a good point, but u have no right to attack him.
There are 2 ways you can go about skiing, try and progress it as much as you can regardless of your feelings toward it, or do absolutely nothing, and just have fun. Our sport hasn't turned the way it has because ppl wanted to have fun...

I like doing manual to 180s.

I'm gonna learn how to do a little revert, from going fakie, into regular, and pop back into a 180 in one motion next time I go skiing.

fuck



Being Irish, I guess I should resent the Notre Dame nickname 'The Fighting Irish.' After all, how long do you think nicknames like 'The Bargaining Jews' or 'The Murdering Italians' would last? Only the Ironic Irish could be so naively honset. I get the feeling that Notre Dame came real close to naming itself 'The Fuckin Drunken, Thick-Skulled, Brawling, Short-Dicked Irish'


i cant ski im always depressed im 12 yrs old and 274lbs. somebody help me
