yah i know what your saying. its almost as though it went unnoticed. that was one of the most amazing acts of skill i have ever seen. andreas is definitely up there as one of the greatest skiers of our time

yea andreas is one of the most under appreciated skiers right now. he can do everything both ways, and he has a really consistent and smooth style. hell he won x games last year and still doesn't get any hype

hes super chill too. during the x games slopestyle practice runs last year me and my roommy were the only people watching and most of the athletes just ignored us, but andreas comes up and has a fifteen minute convo with us. he told us how his day was going and what he was planning to throw. hes my favorite athlete

Agreed, I think hes THE most underrated skier. Coming into the xgames everyone is talking about dumont, tanner, jon, sammy, but nobody ever talks about andreas even after epic movie segments and gold in xgames. Gagnier and west are up there with being underrated too. Andreas can do almost any trick and the reason that nobody notices his natural and unnatural were becase they were both so steezy and clean.

Andreas is just insane... don't know any skiers atm that are close to doubles both ways (correct me if im worng) Am yet to see his part in reasons but him in yeah dude blew my mind, so many wow moments!! And how like every urban he does he can slide it natural or unnatural and every spin he does can do true nose or true tail and right or left. Defiantly best park skier in my oppion, and seems like a super chill guy!

  He is officially not human.  He is obnoxiously good....He absolutely owned Slopestyle, no doubt had an opportunity to win big air, and threw down probably the most tech run in the pipe other than Tanner.  He's a freak.

  It is interesting that he doesn't get the kind of love that some others do...Well, he's not American, unfortunately that hurts his popularity.  Oh yeah...he slaaaays urban.  I almost forgot.

in terms of raw tricks i would say he is the best park skier by far.. this injury might give a few others the chance to catch up a bit but he is just a monster.. right and left doubles.. no unnatural way of spinning.. sick urban etc.. in my opinion he is just WAY ahead of the field.. i hope he will get all patched up in time to film a bit this season.. because even though nobody really notices, i think he sets the standard for everyone to live up to..

Its becasue everyone who saw reasons is still in awe. Like i watch those two tricks like 10 times and still couldn't believe it. he does them so smooth either way. But yeah he needs more hype and i  am pretty sure he can ski in january

yeah there definitly isnt even close to enough hype  about andreas. he has amazing style, the most insane bag of tricks that i have ever seen (definitly since he can throw all his tricks both ways with all the grabs), and isnt super cocky. definitly one of my two  favorite skiers

He kills it, great style and range of tricks.  Certainly up there as one of my favourite skiers.

yes i think the same, he doesn't spin nat or unnat, he just spins right or left, how it should be called at that level.
