I personally wasn't impressed, too flaily, no style, nothing too impressive. Although it is nice seeing the misty! In a year or two he'll be a lot better.

Its cuz no one comments in the video section and if they arent serious. The forums though people are more serious and critical. But I did like that movie and I commented it on youtube

good for a 13 yr old. but the jumps for the urbans are huuuugee. make some real set ups for the stairs, some that you actually need speed and pop onto.

damn, this kid has some skills, alot of potential to be a greta rider. Hes still young, and has alot of time to get better. he should get sponsored within the next couple years.

pretty good on trick level, but style is lacking
a bit pencilly and ride on urban is so 2000.
give it some time, get him to pull his feet up into him more and hell get it going

ha i know the kids older brother from Clarkson... the urbans they're hitting pretty legit... but i agree a lot of the jumps up to them look a bit silly. A little more (ski) style instead of skate style would def make him look a lot better. Sit him down and make him watch some pro vids instead of rollerblading with his bro and it'll make him a lot better.

i think the lack of style is due to the fact that it looks like he's forcing his spins. I liked the misty's they were sick!

nice... fellow NYer w/ Lab, Whiteface, and the urbans/ hut jib at Clarkson.....next season make a conscious effort to improve your style.... that will make such a dramatic change in the kid's skiing

It is good for a 13 year old but the was not enough style on the jumps and one the rails change up and do spins on and then it would be amazing and you would definately get sponsored

I love how everyone talks about "style" as if they had any idea what the fuck they were talking about. Style is the essence of moving the body in the cool of the flow man. It will come. The kid is 13. I bet none of you had style at 13. I bet most of you are still pimply, sweaty kids with cracking voices still going through puberty. IMO, the kid kicks ass, and will be kicking it hard soon enough -- and with "style."
