Elias Ambuhl wins JOI!

Remember when people used to be stoked on our sport progressing? What ever happened to that?

This..

seriously people have been throwing down so hard at JOI and everyone is bitching.

Sorry Im drunk and pissed off

I don't think he was saying that he prefers blunt grabs specifically at all. I think he is saying that his idea of skiing and the type of skiing he prefers is less of a gymnastics pissing contest and more of a self-expressive, "skateboarder-ish"(pardon the cliche)individual style.

I happen to agree, but the great thing about freeskiing is that there is room for both opinions.

you fuck.

that being said, the combination of triples and newschoolers.com will be the downfall of park skiing. The clusterfucking (this thread and others) needs to stop.

Why are you lipping the biggest filming in the game, you're stupid! People need to look more on style, not just hucks, don't want this to turn into freestyle like in the olympics! Steezy shit like henrik and b-dog are way nicer to watch. Or steezy edits from mike hornbeck. Those are the best things to watch not just hucked tripples

yeah man, sometimes you just gotta be a douchebag on the internet.

Well that just isnt true

Im going to post this thread just because it knows whats up

For christ sakes skiing is progressing in all different ways! There are pipe and jump jocks who are making a living doing crazy spins and going huge progressing the sport by adding one more flip or spin and there are people like b dog and edollo who are progressing the sport by killing it on the style side of things. You just have to understand that these things can co-exist and both can be enjoyed in harmony.

We don't have to sacrifice one for the other. Skiing is a sport with multiple dimensions and people need to understand that.

yer the biggest fucking asshole on this site. why dont you get a life you fat fuck.

Are you serious? NO ONE has as much fun skiing as Jeff Kiesel

yea man, you tell 'em!

First off, I don't give a fuck who eheath is, filmer or no filmer, to me he is just an arrogant prick who seems so frustrated in real life he has to come up as a complete dick on internet.

Second, saying Henrik and b-dog are nicer to watch, that's your opinion buddy and yours only. As for myself,  i do dislike Henrik style. I think he takes his "gansta shit"  way over the top and his 8xl dresses make him look like a monkey midget. But that's my opinion and I respect him for his skiing.

Third, stop being a frustrated know-it-all about triples. There were tons of people like you  shitting on switch 10s at the time, then double after that... There is nothing you can do against progression, and it won't stop at triples anyway. As for hucking them, you're just wrong. People just started throwing them and they already make them look like doubles.

All in all, good for you if you if you prefer watching a 4bi9 seg of Henrik, those will still come around fall every year and you'll still have your dose of slow afterbanged switch 9, so don't worry too much. And if you don't like triples, then don't watch bigair events, but there's not much you can do about it and they will still progress our sport with more and more tech tricks; and trust me, LOTS of people enjoying watching it, myself included.


ps: watch out tho, Henrik might throw one in the near future and I bet you'll be sucking his dick for it.

I totally agree with you dude! I like that it's pushed but judges always just look at how big the trick is and not on style, that's what bugs me the most!

damn i had ur karma on 10 already!
someone had to say it, thank you!

I respect that you rather having a different oppinion on skiers styles and i have a different one. Yeah but when everything starts there always hucked and ugly! Yeah those are the kind of edits that i like but the DIFFERENCE is that henrik will do it with a blunt and make it look super steezy!!!!!

definitely sig worthy

Don't like his style, but stocked for him.

yeah dude definetly agree with you there. Elias's triple looked real good, but fuck what's with skiers and there abilty to be none creative. Someone learns a new trick and then everyone's gonna start doing it with the same grab, same shit. it's official, in less than a year the triple cork mute grab is the new dub cork 12 mute. im all with progression, but if everyone (comp skiers) pushed it in different directions it would make it more enjoyable to watch, that is why im glad people like b-dog exist
