I've tried to write threads on the topic if the recent future of skiing. I have expressed my distain for most freestyle skiiers today. I'm not wring in ordr to "hate i'm expressing my lack of respect for kids who dress all thug don't use poles and are complete park rats. It's cool to try and look steezy; i do the whole baggy thing, but bandannas, xxxl basketball jerseys, and not usign poles is just dumb. Mostly because the only kids who do dress like that aren't good, the whole point of not using poles is so you can do grabs easier ( although is is just as easy to grab with poles). A majority of kids who actually don't use poles don't hit big jumps and don't utilize. All i'm saying if ur one of those kids don't dress like an idiot, i know your momy buys you all the newest gear but there should be some corelation between skills and gear.
I know the standard responce will be: as long as ur having fun you have accomplished the goal of skiing; stop hateing. If you thought about writing this reponse you are dumb because neither are legitimate arguments.
Go skiing have fun but don't give skiiers a bad name by being an idiot
