Election is around there just start from the groomer and launch straight off the top you can easily go 40. And i think it is called big konga but get off of gad 2 and and go through the gates and it is in the trees skiers left just look for the signs that say warning cliff area.

You and your cousin epitomize everything that is wrong with skiing today.

No poles in pow hucking backflips, tiny cliffs with super nice filming gear, 0 style.
That is all I have to say.

dude who the fuck are you to tell me that my FREEstyle skiing is wrong, its fucking free.  i cant epitomize the "wrong" part of something that gives you so many options.  get the fuck off your high horse man, you have no idea about what and why we do what we do.  super nice filming gear? panny dv g500 or something like that.  super nice, not at all.  tiny cliffs? aight mr seth morrison, at 16 how many 100 footers was your ass front flipping.  everybody knows that when you start dropping cliffs, you go right to the hugest ones, so you can impresse the douchebags on NS. 0 style? once again, i'll just go get xxxxxl fucking everything and after bang the shit out of stuff to create some bullshit style.  you my friend have absolutely nothing backing you shit so you cant talk man.

and the fact that you think these things are WRONG with skiing today, makes you way too narrow minded for this sport considering you cant openly accept something outside of the status quo.

oh yeah and to get the backflip thing out of the way...

we had no backcountry access. no shovel so we had to jack a shovel from ski patrol and they found us and told us that they would kick us out if we built any jumps, but they didnt figure out that we had their shovel. so we had to hike our asses way out past baby thunder close to white pine where we wouldnt get caught and then proceeded to give it our best to build a jump with the circumstances we were given...


we were just learning backflips, and it was retarded to use poles so they wouldnt get in the way or somehow hurt us if we came down wrong.  it was a shitty jump indeed but fuck man, there are reasons to peoples actions. dont be so quick to judge people

WOOO! right on brotha. Preach!!
No, No, I completely agree this faggot needs a serious talking to. Get a net and throw it around his body so we can pull him down off his high horse. I like your swear words because they make my mind tingle with the power of your expletive force. Right on!

So tell me, do you like hardcore reggae and ska?

Dude, what the fuck is wrong with you?
YOU epitomize everything that is wrong with skiing today AKA hate.
Fuck you, seriously.
There were some really nice pow shots in there, and what the fuck is wrong with pow hucking backflips and tiny cliffs? Hucking b-flips into deep pow is one of the most fun things in skiing, and who cares if the cliffs aren't big? Maybe they didn't know how to get to the other bigger cliffs at Snowbird.
As for your comment about the super nice filming gear, that's just stupid. I would way rather watch that decent edit than watch an edit filmed with a fucking cellphone.


And to the guy who posted that video, props. That was some solid skiing and some solid filming.
