Cant really think of better wording for it, but with the Olympics approaching does any one else think that the Olympics will change our sport as we know it?
Maybe not on a newschoolers level, but we always see the professional athletes we look up to wearing tall ass clothes, repping 420 culture and partying like its their jobs (drinkin), also nearly all edits are to a rap playlist.
Im not saying I dont enjoy freeskiing as it is today, I love every aspect of it. The thing is, with the Olympics we see a different level of professionalism. For example Bode miller is seen as the "badass/rebel/partier/alcoholic" in the winter Olympics. His drinking made him one of the most controversial Olympians. Im not saying chug is gonna be in the Olympics at all, but hes one of the most recognized guys on this website and his fully documented drinking puts bode to shame.
Im not trying to take sides or anything at all, im just playing devils advocate. What kind of change do you think the Olympics will bring (besides insane progress and exposure)?
