i was sitting at home, during Halloween night, i was handing out some candy, a marc andre belliveau song come on while i was playing my ipod on some speakers, i really realized how much i respect the guy. i mean come on, how many people have gone from a pro skier and a good guitar player to breaking their back and still continue to ski as a paraplegic and still rock out. i really have a lot of respect for the guy. he still is a far better skier than me i just think he is an inspiration. any other input?

agreed 100%. what an inspiration. what a role model. thats the kind of dude kids should try to be like in skiing, rather than pseudo gangsters like mik d (shiest d wtf??)

I will never get tired of Marc-Andre respect threads.

The man kills it in every single aspect of life.

there are a lot of skier that i have respect for but marc andre belliveau seriously hurt himself skiing. if i did that, there would be a chance that  hate skiing and would want nothing to do with it. however, he manned up and starting skiing as a paraplegic and is likely an inspiration to other paraplegic as well as us

His music and skiing is soo inspiring. Whenever I'm in a rough mood or something it's never a bad thing to play a couple of his songs.

yah man so true. I mean if you brock your back it would be pretty hard to get back into skiing as paralegic skier. That guy is the perfect example of not giving up.

I just put up the poster of him from freeskier up in my dorm by my door so that I can remember his story every time I walk out of the room and be inspired.

im sorry i don't even know what mt snow is. i hear the name on here all the time but i don't know what or where it is. i would take a guess as that it is a mountain. (that was a joke)

holy shit.
i had so much respect for him before his accident.
he was kinda underrated i thought.
after his accident he is still destroying jumps.

such a talented person.

Damn he's gotten way better since when he was at High North. Marc-Andre is going to revolutionize the sit-ski you guys just watch.

i dont get it... was he supposed to stop playing guitar because he broke his back? i mean yeah the skiing is really baller but just because he cant do some of the things he used to, don't expect him to be dead on the inside. man is stoked on life and nothings going to change that and i envy that. way it should be, not a big deal.
