   YO YOU MUST GIVE THA RESPEK TO THE VIKINGS WHO ORIGINATED OUR SPORT AS WELL AS YOURS, STOP HATING AND SHOW LOVE

   ONE

holy crappers dudes. i just read all the NS members comments on that blog. gotta chill out guys. take a couple breaths before you start typing. it just ain't that serious...why are we so sensitive? it's a site whose tagline is "making fun of snowboarding since 1997"

EASY BOYS, its ok to laugh at yourselves.

i know something like this was already posted but i thought I'd give 10 more rebuttles

1.) The fact that freeskiiers copy nearly every single thing that we (snowboarders) do. Ahem… 2 years later.
2.) Is it really necessary for the equipment to fly off when they fall?  I’ve fallen thousands of times on my snowboard and never once have I wished that  my snowboard flew off.
3.) Doing tricks while holding poles… Ya know, if I wanted to see someone spinning around holding onto poles: I’d go to a strip club.
4.) Skiers on rails look like rollerbladers with size 47 feet.
5.) Tanner Hall.  Is that guy serious?
6.) Those grabs.  It’d seriously look less awkward if they were all grabbing each other.
7.) Hitting jumps switch… it just looks ass backwards.
8.) Those giant sweatshirts.  It’s like they have midget envy.
9.) Let’s face it, no matter which way you’re spinning – it looks a bit “unnatural.”
10.) Those skis may be faster down the mountain… but my god it takes them forever to walk down the lodge stairs in those boots.

1.) A mute on skis looks nothing like a mute on snowboards.                                                                  
2.) Torn ACL's sound like fun right...?
3.) Andy Parry goes no poles all the time, and i bet you like unstrapping everytime you get to a flat part of the mountain.
4.) Last time I checked, oversized clothing was steezy... and like the last guy said, you look like skateboarders afraid of falling, how about you ballz up and snow skate.
5.) The flying tomato, I'm pretty sure that's a kinky sex position.
6.) "He just threw a melon grab, or was it a method, or a japan..." at least skiing's grabs are recognizable
7.) Becasue skiing "ass backwards" is no different from skiing "ass forwards" and therefore is just as easy... right?
8.) Even Surface skis' riders know that tight clothes are NOT steezy
9.) I'm pretty sure that having independent control of your legs is more natural than haning them locked into a plank
10.) you want to talk about slow... how about all of the snowboarders who sit on their ass at the drop in ramp, thinking of what straight air grab their about to throw off the first hit in the beginner park.

Suck it Trebeck

1. skiers have actually been pushing progression. Apparently the biggest thing in snowboarding pipe now is doubles…. skiers have been doing those for like…errrrr four years now. Also when it comes to speed and air… we go biggger! simon dumont (who i dont like by the way) went 35 ft out on a quarter owning whatever you snowboarders have produced . Suck it

2. is it necessary for equipment to fly off? Ummm yes. Im not really into getting a torn ACL everytime i fall.

3. your not really into poles? alright. Im not really into unstrapping on cat tracks or before and after chairlifts like you guys have too.

4. 47 ft feet? hot damn! you’re only off by like 42 feet. And anyways, you know what they say about people with big feet. Big D’s son!

5. Danny Kass, is that guy serious? http://www.boardistan.com/?p=9977&cpage=1

6. now your complaining about our grabs? you try to grab the tips of skis. Its not easy… on account that we have 47 ft feet too.

7,actually hitting a jump switch looks ass forward. think about it.

8. giant sweatshirts… you might be referring to henrik harlaut. For your info he just did a 1620 with steeze. Embarassing what any of your snowboard buddies have ever done.

9.your talking about unnatural? whats more unnatural…. going down a mountain facing forward.. or going down a mountain facing sideways??

10. stairs have never really been a problem. especially ones with handrails.

I just wrote an epic paragraph which was lost because I didnt fill out all the required fields. too lazy to repost. FAIL
