whats with everyone and saying uncrossed grabs are the only stylish grabs, it seems noone thinks a crossed grab is stylish anymore... thats what seperates us from snowboarders, i'm not saying no uncrossed grabs, just we should cross our skis, its who we are

i think no grabs, with good body position are better than anything.

dude just do wahtever you want, who cares what the name is, if it is 'similar' to baording, or if it is crossed or uncrossed. The main thing is to keep style, and go big...

Both can look good as long as they're done stylishly. As long as you vary them its cool. I think the argument before was that candide only does a couple of similar grabs. But they look sick so who cares?

Just have diversity, do both cause then it'll look like you have a bigger bag of tricks.

just go for whatever flows, and feels natural, crossed of uncrossed.
that's my two cents

I think that until we as a skiing community stop arguing about this gay crap we will go nowhere. So there are many different styles? Who cares! Get over and ski you little brats.

I think that spins look really nice uncrossed...makes them look really nice and stylish and smooth, as well as small corks (cork 3s and fives) However, I think once you get higher up in the 7s and nines and inverts it looks nicer crossed...because it stands out more, and gives the flip or spin something more to it, since it can't really have slow, smooth style (not nessecarilly but you know) Laso I think startight inverst (lincolns, backflips and flatspins especially look much better crossed.)

variety, learn them all then use whatever you like or think is stylish. then if you need to do something different from other people in a comp you can use a different grab.
