hes been ahead of his time for years now, just watch these edits, they're still super sick by 2008's standards. Blake if you see this, you're my idol!

Think of the man
who fell from his fishing boat in the fog off Alaska.
He heard the motor
slowly trupping away, its cargo of vain fish under its wing

i think alot of people can pull it off. you have to be alot more controlled i think or you look squirrelly. being a rollerblading "trendster" or "indie" kid myself, i really like fitted pants anyways. i think if you can really ski, you can easily pull them off.

Jordan Seldin does it good good good too. i like the video from 2:30 on.

i know its gold, but im too lazy to change it.

from another post (papasteeze)

1. If your profile is not filled out completely. you should not be orange
Including who you represent
Including contact information outside of NS
Including your position with in a company - I think team riders are okay - they are reps
2. If you do not have posts and are not active in the forums. You should not be orange.
3. If you don't log in or are not willing to regularly to check for PM's and such - you should not be orange.
4. If you don't return PM's (reasonable ones) - you should not be orange.

Blake is a great skier...always thought so...but he is even more of a cool guy. I think if you actually ever meet Blake you will know how cool a guy he is. I remember the first time I met him was in a Borders bookstore and he was just starting to get sponsors and ski really consistently...however many years later the kid is still real and doing it his way.

You can't see it but I am raising a glass to Blake.

he showed me that thing called a shifty in his 11th hour video, a trick that might have saved a little girls life actaully, shifty to chest is better than french fry to chest

You have no idea what you are talking about my friend.

Broke Hyman is a pure skier who can actually ski, not just hit little handrails and boxes in some little terrain park somewhere.

Like you.

Whatever is right.

not true at all, today the biggest skiers are competition skiers or ex-competition skiers, and since hes not a  pipe jock he isn't as big as he should be, but just wait he'll get there

i disagree, but if it was even so, isnt that to be expected? keep in mind how he was doing really innovative stuff that we are calling innovative in 2008, 3-4 years ago. forward nosepressing a box? jea thats mindblowing in 2004-2005. shiftys galore? fitted pants? he is extremely underrated.
