if theyre real good and theyre a freeskier, then its cool, but if they dont have twins and go through the park and mess up the jumps, then its not cool

I ski with normal poles but sometimes I ski with no poles because its fun, fuck people who say it isnt, they just havent tried it or just suck at skiing, its fuckin sick draggin hands and slashin and shit. I wouldnt like to ski all the time like that, but if you do, thats chill. I think short poles are lame, its like useless. At leaste with no poles you wernt a pussy about not using poles, you made a decision, poles or no poles.

OMG REALLY? THATS SO FUCKING COOL go fuck yourself I'm sick of your 86 worthless posts. I have not seen one where you actually add something to the thread instead of your shit. It just pisses me off.

no poles, they throw my ballence off. i dont see why poles are too important to park rats like myself, they dont do anything but sit in your hands. i rode with poles one day to see how it is and why people like it better than no polesl. and it totally threw my ballence off and i couldnt even land a simple straight air. i gave the poles to my friend to hold and i nailed every jump. poles also get in the way of geting a firm hold on grabs. i grab so deep that my palm is against my ski sometimes and i just dont see how i would be able to grab with something in my hand
