When you see a kid in the park who's got some real steezy LOOKING style (like his outfit or w/e) but can't do much trick wise, does that annoy you? Kinda like posing a little?

cuz they had that suspension design, but the patent wasnt theres, so the guy who did have the patent leased it to a bunch of other companies. dw-link i believe its called. i think they might have more, not sure though. like if you check out turner bikes, they're one of the companies who have the lease on the patent. this guy, dave weagle, or w/e his name, is rolling in dough.

i think he's trying to say that the true roots on NS skiing, which are I guess skiing fundamentals, are just being forgotten.  I don't think he's trying to say the park skiing is a joke, but rather that park skiing is just creating kids who fool around, and not real skiers, who can shred the entire mountain.

that's me.  i wear pretty baggy, nice stuff but i'm also mainly a snowboarder and half-decent at that.  only  been skiing for 1.5 years so i'm not very good and look like a bit of a poser when i'm out there on the sticks.  i ride with some pretty solid kids though so i blend in, haha.

but i don't care what people wear, gotta start somewhere and as long as you're pushing it.  hating is the worst thing going on the hill.

i would say i highly classify for that. i cant spin off teh bigger jumps like the 30 footers but do off teh smaller ones, i can do the flat box and flat rails. i used to be good at other rails but stopped trying tehm cause they arent really fun to me.

but i would say im a realy good skier out of the park, thanks to racing for teaching me how to actually ski.

and i rock xl/xl SMS gear thats fresh as fuck

you get the gold coin for contributing to the site. i don't think anybody's paying just to get a little GIF next to their username.

lots of peeps pay just for the gold coin or money sign. mainly 13 year old kids who borrowed mommies credit card so they look cool on the internet.

I dont let it get to me I just ski unless the kid is being all cocky or if its somebody who doesnt deserve anything they have but they can get it because their parents have mad money then that annoys me
