So yeah, I didnt pay attention at all to what happened this year in skiing other than main events like x games, CR Johnson (rest in peace), and backstrom (rest in peace) so I have no idea whats going on in the sport right now.

I have just grown tired of the same old shit on here, and Ive been busy all the time so I dont ever go on ski gabber. So what were all the new big stories? Injuries? The best new skiers? The best new edits from last season...




I searched for stuff like this and couldnt find anything. IF there is a thread just give me a link.

Well, it snowed in some places, people rode on new and old skis, um, people were in comps and won and lost, and then the snow melted.

Bout it.

Candide basically dominated every backcountry comp he entered. JOSS was spoiled by team america releasing their video early causing a HUGE MONTHLONG SHIT STORM in the ski gabber. Taps on rails blew up. Bobby Brown switch misty 12, 14 and triple flat.

What happened with that? Did WME drop everything? Or is it still making it's way through the legal system

Nick Martini, Henrik Harlaut and Phil Casabon got injured.

There was a team Newschoolers at JOSS and they killed it!
