The new steez

Anyone else who has noticed that in all of e'dollos latest edits, he never stretches out his body to full length, he's constantly leaning forward? Personally I think it looks like he needs to see a kiropraktor, but that's just my personal opinion. Anyone who sees this as the next big thing? Seems like everyone is starting to get over the afterbang...

Gotta hand it to him for taking tail presses to the next level though, I´ve been waiting for that for ages, we've got a lot up catching up to do comparing to snowboarders when it comes to rail variations.

i think you just notice it because his hoody is past his knees so his ass looks like hes hunched over in his back. no one really skis completely vertically, you just dont notice it as much because they arent 3 feet tall wearing 3xl

I think it has more to do with the fact that he's pretty short and wears huge clothes. Plus leaning forward looks better than standing straight up usually.
I hope more people start creating their own styles.

Hate it, especially with his super tall jackets/hoodies it just doesnt look right. It could look ok if his jacket ended at his waist

who cares what other skiers are doing. why hate on henrik or the people that want to be like him. if they're all doing the same thing, it'll just make you stand out more for doing your own thing.

I'm not hating, but I think I made it clear that I'm not a big fan. So don't call me a sheep.
I'm just seeing a style that now, with people like Henrik doing it, might become increasingly popular, and now I'm sharing my thoughts and opinions with fellow freeskiers. It's called discussion, and there's nothing wrong with it. It might in fact be constructive.

If you would stop skiing because of what others are doing, then your the one who's letting himself be affected in to big a degree.

Honestly bud, just chill out a minute. It's about what people want to do. It's not as if kids don't realize that they're copying a pro's style, it's because it's what they idolize and what they want to look like. If you want to wear tight jeans and a 10xl t'shirt, that's just fine, let people do what they want, and if it doesn't effect you, don't worry about it. No hate, and no offence intended, just speaking my opinion.

hemorrhoids?

Seriously hope Harlaut's back isn't screwed up. He's a young guy.  I think it pretty much boils down to doing what works for your body type.  Henrik's not tall so unless he wears platform boots, he isn't going to look the same as Bobby Brown.  I think Henrik does what works for him and others do what works for them.  When someone tries to force a style that doesn't work for their body, it's pretty obvious IMO.

Untrue, Tanner Hall started it! Since you probably started skiing after T-hall moved to skiing mainly pow, try and find older videos of his park skiing (Ski movie 2 or 3, 1242) or even watch his trasition videos like Dubski, were he slays park and urban with unbeleivable smoothness. It has probably the sickest sw butter on to an urban ever and this is when barely anybody was touching down rails sw. I should point out tho that his early big mountain shots are a little funny looking as he used to ski the whole mountain super gorilliaed out..... Fuck Im old

Henrik looks ridiculous in that new NZ rails edit.  I think he should just wear some stuff that maybe fits him a little bit haha because he just looks like a little ball with that L jiberish on.

After you mentioned, I checked the Edit and I fully agree, and I REALLY noticed it.. once you point it out it is crucial, Not hating but I dont like it, I never realised how bad that stance is until I saw that edit. I doubt it'd be his back or he probably would have got it checked/fixed.
