the first few truck drivers to come around were cool, but now that everybody is doing them off every jump, its starting to get really old.
it doesnt look steezy, it looks like youre playing Johnny Moseley Mad Trix.
are we going to bring back the backpacker grab too? because its about as steezy.
truck drivers are whack. if youre not simon dumont then dont do them.

not really, but thanks for playing.
i did one the other day and thats what made me realize that theyre gay. grabs look cool because you grab with one hand and tweak it out or steeze it out with the other. its a smooth and steezy spin.
truck drivers, unless theyre in the pipe, just look reallllly stupid. youre park rat buddies might think it looks "really kewl" but really everyone else (everyone on the lift, snowboarders, skiiers like me) is laughing at you because you look like a dumbass doing it. they dont look steezy, they look stupid. theyre not progressive, they were around waaaay back before newschool got big, its not "steezy" or "progression". thats why i say, if youre going to be doing truck drivers, then lets start seeing some backpack grabs or some bug mans too. because at least the bug man doesnt give me cancer when i watch someone do it.
but seriously. truck drivers are gay.

fucking a, yes i can do one you assholes. thats how i can say theyre gay.
im not like 90% of this site who talks shit about things they could never do.
truck drivers are easy to do, you just look like a retarded yoga instructor or a second grade short bus kid doing it. "oh look at me, i can grab both of my skis in the air, dee dee dee!"
how about throwing a sick nose grab like gagniers tweaked out true nose. try throwing that because its waaaaay harder and actually looks really badass when you throw it.
if i were god, i would remove the truck driver from this earth.

for the record too, i wouldnt be this vehement about the subject if everyone hadnt immediately slammed me for having "opinions". because you guys dont have open minds and cant accept the fact someone doesnt like something you like, ill sit around as long as nessecary to retort to you ignorant douchebags.

i agree, when i saw sammy doing them in war it was totally new but i guess everybody thought they were cool and did them so much that now it's like the most common grab, its done too much

they can look cool in certain cases, but they can also look really bad if you have super stiff style where it looks like you have something stuck up you know where

kinda what im trying to say... they look soooooo stupid, you have to be dead on a VERY fine line for them to look good. but FEW people do them that good. Dumont, C West, Sammy, a couple others, and thats it. everyone else that tries them sucks and looks reallllly stupid.

i just brought this up in another thread yesterday but i think truckdrivers are dope i just dont want to see them EVERYWHERE and in EVERYONES video part for EVERY trick. but that leads into another discussion of how people should be trying ALL the grabs and not just mutes, crutons, blunts, etc...

what he means is you saying only simon should be doing truckers is the same as anyone else saying that if you aren't TJ and can't tweak like him, then you shouldn't be doing mutes.
basically, thats just stupid. like this thread.

i didnt bother to read all the comments cuz this is a stupid thread and the creator seems to have something very personal against truckdrivers. its just a grab man, they have nothing to do with the truckdrivers yo momma ran off with.

I don't know about yall, but I think truckdrivers are pretty damn cool. It's so hard to drive across the country at long hours in the night, sleeping in the cab, eating horrible truckstop food, and doing whatever else truckdrivers do.
nevermind, seriously, truckdrivers look cool in the pipe and with certain people. Id rather see more blunts, true tails, true nose. Besides when you do truckdrivers it looks like your taking it up the ass. Almost everyone in skiing wants respect from mainstream people, if people are doing truckdrivers off every jump, they will think we are literally gay. So please, for the sake of the reputation of skiing, stop doing truckdrivers.

i think that they are awesome, so steezy, theyre fun too. But it does seem that everyone is doing them so that does take away from it.

Yeah dude, truckdrivers are a pretty integral part of society these days. People don't realize how much of their everyday goods were hauled long distances by truckers get to them.
And yeah, the grab is fucking stupid. It looks like taking a dump in the air or something. It's a stupid "gimmick" way to style out your trick... like the stink bug and shit like that other dude said.

dude just let it go. let kids do what they want. yeah i think they are pretty wack, but then again so were spreads and daffies. the truck diver will take a nice long ride but will eventuallly die and be left for retrospectives of future skiers

i think it just shouldnt be something thats like OOOOH AAHHH, and people should still mix it up... i know people are gonna bag me for this but look at snowboarding, they do like every grab in the book, and i think skiiers should be that way an stop getting into ONE trend of a of ONE grab every year and still do different things.

I like truck drivers, they are steezy. But, they are overused, and like EVERYONE does them.
I think we need to use truck drivers in moderation.

Yes.. it's official.
You can only do Truck Drivers Monday, Wednesday, Friday, And every other Saturday of the month.
Between the times of 1pm and 10pm.
The only time these rules can be broken, is if you are in a comp. But even then, you need to get a permit.

I feel that truck drivers are really sick to see and that I'll never get bored of seeing them but everyone is literally obsessed with them. If you can do a truck driver switch corked 5, you're garunteed to do very well.
