im sorry, but the glut of threads recently about literally anything ruining skiing, killing skiings priorities, or whatever, is getting old.
skiing is merely blowing up and changing right before us, often too fast to even keep up. thats all. skiing is where its at, and is sooo dope, so much so that people everywhere are starting to recognize. snowboarders give us mad props, our pros are on morning shows and the news, our sport has all kinds of contests from the x-games to small contests done by the big names at their local resorts, we have all kinds of riders and pulling from different age groups, little kids think its "cool" to be a skier again, we have big companies and little ones supporting the industry, and it happens to still be fun for all of us no matter how we shred, where we shred, even if its when no one is watching, just killing it thinking "that was soo sick".
and not only that, but the entire freaking freeskiing community practically, from newbs and mary o'neil fakes to tanner level pros and industry insiders, are on THIS website. so while there are all kinds of small glitches that are readily apparent because its such a tight knit community, really, freeskiing is on its game in my opinion.
now if only we could get a sick video game....
