I thought that you were supposed to edit it out when you forgot to stop recording and then skied all the way to the chair with the camera rolling.

I will reserve judgment on whether or not he is better than me.  I want to see him on some steep terrain before I will give him that.  Mountain High sucks, if he can out-ski me at Mammoth in some steep terrain I will give him credit.

He is a good park skier, I will give him that. 

For the record, if we are talking Socal mountains Baldy and Waterman destroy Mt. High.

Either Chris Haffey is a really small guy, or they really built up that jump the one day he was hitting it. In every video I have of that jump it looks like it's about 10 feet to the knuckle.

love that edit,
skiierman is a troll (just ignore his post)
froot boot represent,
haffy is hyphy,
people hate on bootin' because they clearly never fall, and skaters try too hard and never land shit, the edit you posted is proof, it was filmed in like 30 minutes and there are soo many bangers!

He's actually really good at park. He's throwing a lot of 9s and 10s. THAT VIDEO SUCKED. He threw a sketchy 5 and barely slid the boxes... Idk if this threads a joke or what but there's better vids of him skiing than that piece of shit.

to whoever said rollerbladers should not use their arms as much, please try landing on 2 foot long areas as opposed to 2 5 foot areas
it's a whole lot fucking harder
and when you're on concrete there is a much smaller margin for error

haters, please fuck off until you can rollerblade

fuck the haters, you give skiing a bad rep. the man is on skis, and from what ive seen, he could probably hold his own with half the people on the site, and for skiing as little as he does, man, he kills it. hes out having fun, how can you hate on that?

by leaving this footage in, it makes the edit that much more original, therefore way more enjoyable to watch. this also allows us to enjoy the scenery/other skiers' presence as we wait for mr haffey to hit his next feature. a brilliant fliming technique i must say
