Funny but weird, i know it's snowboarding so if it's a big deal then move it to NSG, but maybe worth a watch. DEF WEIRD

its funny, danny kass is from my home mountain in jerz. and he claims all this stuff like growing up in jerz and its in this ad and everything. but the funny thing is, he absolutely hates mountain creek, and they hate him. so, idk why i felt compelled to share that, but bak to the thread, that was weird

I don't understand, after watching 4 minutes of that the most interesting part was when it showed the boot at the end... I love nike's, but fuck they should stay out of extreme sports, they have their ground covered enough already
...what the fuck was the commercial about anyway...

How did you receive it?

It came across as 'what the hell is this ad about' and then bam - Nike snowboarding boot.
So i guess it was effective in that way.

Did I miss the message?

In my opinion - very atypical as far as Nike's marketing goes.

yeah word but probably only to an artist like you...   

I wonder.... How many in the targeted demographic can even relate to a Sgt. Pepper motif or better yet, a Zappa reference with the yellow snow?  Granted the graphic on the shoe is right outa the psychadelic 60's and the trippiness ties into all that. Didn't realize that stuff was making a comeback. It seemed like a commercial 40 years too late to me.

Then again I am not the targeted market.  hahhaha

so the whole thing was leading up to that chick with 2tongues at the end to go with his new double tongue snowboard boots?

that was a fucked up commercial.

There are exactly 3 things wrong with this video

one|: there is no way Danny Kass cut his hair off, even if nike said "hey danny, tell you what, cut off your grease and well pro model you up some boots." so this isnt really Dannny Kass, nor is it his pro model boot.

2: no hippy in their right mind would share ANY of their yellow snow to let you snowboard on you danny kass impostor! no way! And that bunny, yeah that bunny seemed a little sketch to me. I have my eye on you bunny.

and C: that was not nearly crazy enough. Someone shoulda told nike : its not how far you go, its how go you far. I learned that from dave from ski school. which is far superior to ski school 2 in every way. And yes I do think a girl in a bikini at 9 am is wrong, and no i hope she does not stay like that all day.

oh, plus, always feed your dog part of your hot dog, or you will get herpes.

Ohhh this is only the recycled beginning: Hippy/Gypsy 2009

Either way, yeah, well made video ad.

Also check "The Boned Age" and "No Correct Way" for more trippy-rocker style references.

what the fuck is with all the hate.  sure its really stupid that nike generalizes all snowboarders as acid tripping pot heads.  Guess the trippy visuals is how they connect with our sport (kind of a slap in the face dont ya think, wither makes the sport look fun or like a joke)  but other than that the art was fucking sick and the boots were pretty ill as well.

i bet danny kass gets so flamed by his friends though for riding a hot dog down a fucking mountain.  That shit was stupid.

He's probably like "Did you get paid hundreds of thousands of dollars to ride down yellow snow? I don't think so, so shut the fuck up!" At least that's what I'd be like...

im lost as to how that commercial had any point.. but it was terrible mainly becouse danny kass was in it. im surprised he wasnt ripping on some skiers in that considering he enjoys doing that so much
