So i recently posted up this edit I just made on my mountain's facebook page, and got a real nice comment by them in return. Check the ender.


This is their response,
Hey, Drew. While we love the visuals in the video, we're a family-friendly mountain -- with a family-friendly facebook page -- and we're not digging the lyrics (or the cursing at the kid in the end of the video). The boss tells me to keep this page clean, and that means that George Carlin's 7 Dirty Words are pretty much off-limits. While we love it when folks share photos and videos on our wall, we're hereby announcing our one and only rule: Keep it clean, safe, and fun!

yea that was probably pushing it a little.

but other than that, it's bullshit. i would suggest writing back on their wall about how you're sorry that they don't appreciate free advertising.

how about the guy is right and you should change it if you want it to be placed on a website of a large demographic and age bracket. It's their personal website and they can delete whatever they want. if you want to be on their page, abide by their rules.. clean and simple..

PC has nothing to do with this.. foul language at a 5year old is them needing to wake up? you need to grow up.

Obviously they want to be a family resort. And wannabes telling little kids to f*** off do probably not belong to this group.

Video is sick though

yeah honestly the more i think about it, this is probably the part that made them more mad than anything. it's one thing to have kids putting songs over footage on their own time and posting it on a facebook page, where anybody can literally post anything, and most people who are on facebook have seen/heard much worse, but if i were a parent i'd be pretty pissed to find out that kids were yelling shit at my little kid who is just trying to have fun. although that would never be my kid, i will be pissed as shit if my kid ends up being a gaper.

Do you actually not understand where they are coming from? You have to be retarted if you don't get why they are not stoked on a video with constant swearing and harrasment of a young kid on their public info page.

That was cool, except the song did suck....
The end is where you lost me.

I seriously cannot stand when people pull shit like you did a the end. That kid can't be older than 6 and you or your friend gets enraged at him for snaking. Are you kidding me? So weak. You're portraying such a negative image of the culture, shit like that is why kids are so standoffish and lame to each other in the park.

You probably didn't abide by "park code" when you were that age.

I'm really grasping at straws as to why you chose to put that in your edit.

I loled at the yelling part at the end. Happens way to much and people who ride over lips of jumps are annoying. It didnt look like the kid heard him because he didnt look back or anything, but i agree with most everyone else, if i planned on putting this on their page i wouldnt have included it in the video. But otherwise i didnt mind it.

Sick video.

I wonder why they didn't like it, it couldn't have been that you yelled at a 6 year old or anything.

Saying fuck you to a 6 year old didn't make you cooler... didn't really have to be added to the video.

my old mountain removes posts critical of the park or really critical to them at all. Even just asking if they plan to reshape features in the near future gets deleted.

I swear immature fucks like you are what give newschoolers, and newschool riders a bad rep. Grow the fuck up, no one cares that your hill didnt let you put a shitty video on their facebook.. But I guess when your that immature you do anything for attention.

cool edit man, but ya, in the long scheme of things, probably not great music for a resort. the percentage of people that actually like that kind of music that go skiing, believe it or not, is actually pretty small. and ya, like everyone else said, the whole kid thing was kinda dump to put in if you wanted to get it on their wall.

Haha this thread totally backfired on you. You totally didn't get the response you thought you would get...

Nothing is funny about it. I do have a sense of humor and teenagers cursing at small kids who have no idea what they are doing doesn't really make me laugh. I don't know what sort of sense of humor you have? It's pretty sad if you think that is funny.

Thank you. That is all.

I stopped the edit before it even got the the "ender" that everyone is talking about. The park is not a ghetto, it's a pleasant place. Make a video that makes it look pleasant and enjoyable.

Not funny at all. Next time you scream profanity at a child, I want you to think to yourself. "am I acting like a piece of shit right now?" The answer will be yes.

Next time you feel like doing something because you think it's funny, stop and ask yourself: "Is this funny, or is it just funny to me?" Because that wasn't funny, that was just your friend being an asshole.

And, did you seriously need to make a thread about how your mountain didn't like this edit? Obviously it wasn't going to fly, and they are completely doing the right thing taking this down.

It would have been far more reasonable to remove your edit on the basis that the song was absolutely terrible, not on the use of profanities.

No they did not.

Either way skinnier stances are better looking than a stance that is stretching your groin muscles. That's for jump/pipe jocks.

I remembered seeing this and thinking to myself- is this person retarded?  Of course that shits not gonna fly, and no I don't feel bad for you at all that the mountain took the video down.  You gotta remember that lots of people hate park skiers, or freeskiers in general.  Add that to the song and the dumbass comment at the end and I'd say you deserve a nomination.
