Replying to The REAL Style Thread

Alright, at some recent point, 'tweak' style with a lot of extension kinda went out, minimal 'uniform' style went in. Why? Does it make sense? Is safetying while pulling your feet a few inches apart really that harder than crossing and blunting? This is happening exactly like with snowboarding, except with skiing, at least so far, there's fortunately not been a counter-movement that tries to reclaim pencil steeze as do-not-give-a-fuck cool or something (in skateboarding and snowboarding there'll always be some really messy-style lanky pros that honestly look slow and shitty but they'll have a bunch of hessians (or their homeboys) backing them up because dirty has dignity or something). Don't take sides, just talk about how things are going.
