i heard through the grapevine that he got his voice stuck in one of his accents and cant remember what he actually sounds like anymore. anyone else hear any truth to this?

Nice try at being funny, but you didn't quite make it happen.

He's actually got quite a few super dope tricks in his bag.


Sure, he's no Tom Wallisch, but I don't think he ever intended to be the best of the best of the best.

He was good enough to make it to the pro circuit, and now that hes in? Bah. Fuck it. Let him have some funs.

I laughed for a good couple minutes in the new MSP movie where he just straight claimed winning the X games. Seriously one of the funniest things I've seen in a ski flick.

He really fits in with MSP. He's a great skier, and he isn't just a generic park rat like a lot of pros glorified on NS. And he's the funniest guy ever too.

I went up the t-bar on the Whis glacier with him, he's an awesome guy

brought them BACK into the game. They used to be called rocket airs before they went out of style.

not positive but I think I met him at keystone last year. dude similar build couldnt see his face though. standing right after the intermediate rail park, while this guy commentated on all the kids hitting the jumps and crashing in the big park, then did a 2 on pretzel 4 out with that colby west solid steeze and never saw him again. Ill never know for sure but its a good geuss and fun story when i get in depth with it

Colby is big the game, met him at freeze and he was so chilled out, he knows he's not the best and doesn't claim otherwise, but he can still put it down hard if he wants too.

We need a break from all the pro's who just put out a 5 min long edit of solid skiing and Colby provides that

<3 you Colby

COLBY JAMES WEST, one of my favorite skiers and it has nothing to do with his minimal shredding.

I also feel like his talent is a bit underplayed cause people pay attention to him cause hes the fucking man and not so much because of his skiing. e.i. his segments in "The Way I See It" (hilarious)
