I was reading my Axis mag and the interview with tanner and pep, and one of the last ?'s in it is
Q: What is the lamest thing you had to do to promote the sport?
Tanner: This guy from YM magazine wanted me to sit in the snow and throw snowballs up in the air and look all happy.
Pep: He wanted us to throw snowballs at each other and make snowangels.
Tanner: It just sucked. It took so long and the girl doing the interview had no clue- no ?'s written down, just trying to think of them on the spot. I know if she were interviewing Eminem, she wouldn't be sitting there trying to make up ?'s.
-So I went into my grocery store and picked up the latest issue of YM magazine to see if these skiers were it it... and they were... this is what YM put 'The cutest ones we could find for this month... FREESKIERS (they do tricks like snowboarders but on skis)' Then they went on to talk about how Pep grew up on an Organic farm and can make pesto sauce. Ok... THIS PISSES ME OFF SO FUCKING MUCH! Seriosuly, the article was crap. If you are pissed too express your anger to letters@ym.com

' We watched in awe as these freeskiers pulled massive tricks at Mammoth Mountain, CA. They didn't even charge admission.
C.R. Johnson, 20
When the guys want to take their snowmobiles out into the backcountry and build kickers (snow ramps) to jump off, the first person they call to ask about snow conditions is Charles Russell (shortened to C.R. for hip factor).
'My dad's the avalanche forecaster in our area,' says C.R., who grew up in Squaw Valley, CA. 'So he taught me how to be safe.'
He also used to get pointers from Olympic gold medalist Jonny Moseley, who was his coach since he was 9. Lucky guy, right?
All of the top-of-the-line advice helped make C.R. into the well-rounded freeskier he is today. 'I do well in competitions, but I can also go heli-skiing getting dropped off by a helicopter into extreme terrain and feel really comfortable. I think that's what being a professional skier is all about, not just being good in one area.'

Boyd Easley, 22 Boyd used to be one of the top mogul skiers in the world. But he discovered freeskiing in 1999, and retired from downhill racing forever.
A year later, Detroit-born Boyd placed fourth in the Winter X Games and moved to Truckee, CA. 'Now I travel to film ski videos in places like Sweden, where the girls say, 'Ooh, California— you're like Brad Pitt!'' says Boyd with a big grin.
And though he's clearly not there to shoot anything remotely like Ocean's Eleven or Fight Club, Boyd doesn't bother correcting the girls' assumptions. A month before our shoot, Boyd had screwed up his knee doing a jump.
So while he had to lay off the skiing, he indulged in one of his loves— shopping for belts, including his new favorite, a snakeskin one with metal rivets. 'But anything past 100 bucks, I'm like, 'Uh, it's just a belt.'' Agreed.

Shit, Boyd must be pretty good to be one of the best mogul skiers in the world and then retire from DOWNHILL RACING ???
I certainly know that 'hip factor' was the big decider in shortening my name too.
wtf ?!
give me a break.
They say there is no such thing as bad publicity, but what good does drivel like this do.
I just hope they got payed a lot of money.
