ive seen it in a few threads and i would just like to say that this epitomises what is wrong with skiing in many respects. the guy simply can't ski. i'm sorry to make you the center of conversation here as ive never met you and your probably a great bloke, but im damn sick of people who cant actually ski but can throw a corked 5 mute in the park or do a switch up or spin onto a rail. You could throw a lot in the park but when you went to drop a 20 foot cliff it looked like you had never skiied in your life. your technique was all wrong and this shows in your park skiing. you land a lot of jumps back seat, in fact you ski back seat pretty much full stop, your too erect, your hands are way too loose and spray from your body, and the list could go on. you might claim, "well thats my style", but at the end of the day, theres ten year old kids out there who can throw these tricks, which basically proves anyone can do it if they hav the balls. throw someone in the back country and in the pow and then you can see their true skiing ability, or even if you just analyse their park skiing, and im sorry to say it again, but u cant ski mate, and u are a big part of whats wrong with this ski industry. innovation is never going to occur from people who cant actually ski, because these park skiiers like yourself who cant actually ski to save their life, are so limited with technicality. park skiing is still skiing, and as long as this is the case, we can only take the sport so far if we're going to be park skiiers who cant ski. learn to ski before you hit the park, its better for the sport!

The only thing wrong with skiing is the mindset that it should look a certain way.
No matter what aspect of the sport you look at, that's more often than not the root problem.

this thread absolutly pisses me off.
Kohl is one of my very good friends and for you to call him out saying hes a perfect example of one who can ski park but not all mountain.
Do you even fuckig know kohl?
The kid ski raced from 3rd to 8th grade!
He was an alternate for the juinor olympics when he raced.
Just cause he doesn't have any bc lines in his promo doesn't mean he can't ski bc. Kscho fucking kills the bc. But seriosly who wants to fucking film lines on a powder day?

Just to let you all know.
Kohl Schoening didn't start skiing park til 8th grade.
8th grade he was racing at the time so he had no time for park really.
9th grade year washington had its worst snow season of the year and him and i skied MAYBE 20 days.
10th grade (this year): Kohl absolutely kills it in the park now. AND THE BC!

Dude, don't pick this fight again. I've seen in like 230592734 other threads, and you are just gonna lose. I'm trying to save you some humiliation.
Everyone has had enough of the "the BC is my park" speech. I'd rather whoop my own ass, put a cigarette out in my eye and my dick in an electrical socket than hear about how you have conquered the BC, but have no proof.
And to the starter of this thread, please understand that this is FREE STYLE skiing. I'll break that shit down for you. You are FREE to have any STYLE you want.

are you serious? are you the one who made this alias or what, this shit isnt legit at all, KOHL IS CLAIMING ITS A PARK VID YOU FUCKING IDIOTS, and ill add my name to the list of kids backing up the fact that k scho could own most of the people on this site in any aspect of skiing.

kohl sucks at everything, those shots aren't even of him. kohl is actually 200 pounds overweight and eats skis instead of riding them.

I'm in the exact same position as schoening...even around the same location so I can't really diss him.
Good luck dude.

AustrailianJib whatever your name is...you must be an alias, because otherwise your just damn crazy.
Kohl is a good SKIER. Not just park, not just pipe, the kid can ride the whole mountian...switch if he fucking wants to.
He comes from a strong skiing background, his dad was involved in the national program.
There is no rebuttle avaliable here, you dont know him, you've seen 2.5 minutes of skiing and from that you judge his capability...the arrogance you must have to judge someone so openly is simply shocking.

what is it with this place? yes this thread is ridiculous but it doesn't require every single damn member to reply calling him a dick. unless you have something constructive to say besides 'what a dick' let the thread die. how do you know hes not a troll?

nope, im not going to let this thread die. for the fact he used Kohl as an example is just ridiculous. Kohl fucking ski raced! He learned how to ski. I don't think he would continue with ski racing for 5 years if he wasn't somewhat good at it. The "too erect" comment is hilaroius because all year kohl has wanted to progress the just laid back/pencil steeze. Kohl doesn't want to have a similar style like all you kiddies trying to be just like thall and all those guys. he's doing what everyone should be doing. thats create your own style.

wow way to generalize....you ski the east coast. ive seen east coasters who have gone bc skiing otu west and on their first day, they stomped a zero spin off a 20ft cliff. ive also seen a 5 off a 20ft cliff on this other kids first day dropping cliffs. you can ski the east and know what your doing off cliffs. you just gotta be a good, talented skier. if you can adjust to stomp shit perfect in park you can stomp shit in bc. you just gotta be a good enough skier to make adjustments.

the only thing i could really call out in kohl's video is that his body isnt quite controlled. he doesnt have the spin degree down to exact but what does it matter? i dont see what the point of calling a kid out for is when hes not pro.

I thought that vid was sick. and the cliff is definitely more than 20 feet. and it looks like he just underestimated the snow depth and thought it was steeper than it was. All in all, that vid is solid

youve got some pretty sweet vids of you "having the balls to throw down in pow"!
NOOOTT!!!!!!! i bet your a local at your home mtn who thinks that you are the shiz and no one can touch you and you laugh at the people and make fun of the ones that try to be good and actully are having fun and not worring about STEEZ(even though thatis the most important thing about skiing...not), just like the kids around here. but i have a news flash sry to tell you this but your not. this is the dumbest topic i have seen on this website in a long time....you should just hang up the skis before i reach trough the computer and slap you with a STEAK! yea thats right a big juicy 10oz t-bone.

i was thinking about writing a big reply bitching you out, but i realized everyone has done that for me. I will say two things that i feel are important though. First, until three years ago, kohl was a racer and therefore you are incredibly far off by saying he has no form and cannot ski outside of park. and second, the fact that this is only his third year in the park (and last year washington barely had winter), i would say that he is absolutely amazing and far exceeds any random 10 year old.

Kohl flipped out on my like a terd and this was my response
hey man chill but from reading the kid's thread i agree, there are far too many park skiers that can't make a turn for their life. Keep in mind that I didn't see your promo but the shortcomings that are described about your skiing technique reflect a poor skiing backround. sorry, also I never said you can't ski, the thread was based on all kids that stink at making turns but ski park, you were just an example, i never mentioned anything about you
and for the people who say i can't ski i'll let you know i raced for 7 years and my credentials include state cahmpion multiple medal performances at junior olympics and took 5th place at an international race called the whistler cup.
also i have won local mogul contests to add to the fact that i'm not 1 dimensional and can outski 99% of the people on this site
