Candide + Tailgrabs

Candide is a super sick and stylie skier. But is anyone getting kinda pissed with the only tailgrab thing? Watch Happy Dayz, there isn't one jump where he doesn't do a tailgrab. I think you shouldn't be able to win comps doing the same grab because there is no variety.

who cares? that's his choice to do tailgrabs, it's part of HIS style, if he can do a tailgrab in every jump he does and make it look good, then good for him, that's sick.. to each their own

actually in happy days he does a 180 mute over the transfer, so we know that he can tail grab and mute grab!

candide is awesome, don't knock his style. I used to hate Mick Nick's style, because it was like skiboarding on skis. But I tried to do throse grabs, and they are hard. bottom line, Candide is sick, and his tails rule.

yea i mean he is cool but if he wants to win more comps, for his sake i reckon he should (Even if he can do them, which im sure he can) do them.

k, candide has sick style
he chooses to do tailgrabs cause he only likes grabs that you can tweak really hard, such as tails and mutes

You guys all got me wrong. I wasn't makin fun of his style, Candide is one of the best skiers out there no doubt. I just realized though how he has a short span of grabs. I am sure he can do more just wondering why not. Y all peeps like flipped out.

so what if candide only does blunts (AKA booty grabs) and tail grabs? he does them well. u wint comps because u do a harder trick better than the rest. if its a slopestyle or pipe event he has to mix it up!
dont hate on a guy because u dont like his bread and butter. look a jon. ridiculously sick his bread and butter is a crossed toxic grab. its sick

the point is mo-rod, jon, unlike candide, does safty's mutes, tip, japan, and every other grab in the book. Jon has a way bigger bag of tricks too, but thats a whole nother story.

one of his hits at parkasaurous over the channel gap in strike 3 is like a mute and a tail at the same time

candide is unbelievably sick, he goes huge, has style that makes everything look effortless, not so much in a motionless 'my hands are hanging by my boots' way, but in a that looked really easy way, given, he does grab tail alot, and it looks sick
