you prefer?

'dollo style, tammy style, bobby, nopoles, anything.

Gangsta, gypsy, slim, baggy, tall etc etc, post what kind of style you ride, and what kind of skiing style and ski clothing style you prefer. clothing style is pretty irrelevant imo but i would like to know what the majority of NS thinks. Pics and vids will be neat.

there are a lot of different styles out there. whats yours?

I like pros or unique kids that have there own simple style. Personally i like seeing a super clean 9 with a nice grab than a double. Just a personal preference.

I just have my own style, not baggy, but not tight...typically wear a different jacket/sweatshirt every time I go out I don't like looking the same every time, I'll even switch mid day.

haha, I'm actually a big fan of my own style. As overconfident and cocky as that sounds, I'm actually usually pretty critical of myself.


I dig the style of guys like Jack Borland, Jeff Kiesel, and Cole Drexler. Basically guys who are doing their thing on rails, trying to tweak stuff out and do things a bit different than everyone and make up their own tricks, hit things in new ways... I like that.

who's the user on this site who has a quote of me saying something about style being about how you ski, not how you dress? I'd like him to come here...


I think it's NYsucks or something.

Speaking of style, does anybody believe you can "change" your style.

For me, I lift my arms above my head or just really high up when i jump, and i hate how it looks. I've tried to not do this, but its tough, has anybody ever tried to modify their style?

Yes. I have drastically changed my style from early last year to now. For something like that, it's easy to just focus on and fix, but for a complete change in skiing style, it's more gradual.

I'm a big fan of the skiing i've seen you do. It's dope and refreshing. Skiing like a snowboarder for life. I try to do the same thing kinda, and have a baggy gypsyish style

I really do enjoy Max Hill's style, so smooth, yet he charges everything, and he inspired me to buy skinny pants.

i really like sean pettit's style. sorta fitted outerwear, and a really smooth way of hitting lines. he seems to never flail either which is rare among the big mountain guys.

as for my own style... dressed kinda like a big mountain guy/park rat combo

The best style is people who are just being themselves. All that means is people who honestly are not trying to be anything they are not. Doesn't have to be a certain look. When you are talking to someone / see someone ski who is doing what they feel and lovin it, it's obvious.

The best style will always be: natural, smooth, and creative.

throw a grab in there. that usually chills the arms out. I used to have wandering arms for a while then just really started thinking about controlling my arms just really concentrating on where they were while i was in the air.

I try to just have a really relaxed style, loose arms, i'd rather throw a shifty 3 than a cork 7, but still do em both with ease. I'm a snowboarder as well and a well done nose press back 180 out always looks good. But Clothing wisesome days i'll hit urban in jeans and a tank top, other days i'll be decked out in my thuggie and real baggy pants looking like a goofball. I like to have fun though thats number one. So if one day all that sounds fun to me is rocking a pink jump suit and gaping around the park i'll do it and the next day i'll be in my normal attire charging getting new bangers.

I like to think I have my own style I guess its probably closest related to Antwaun Dixon, a skateboarder.

My style is based around making everything look as hard as possible, probably because I suck. Slightly baggy though.

I enjoy Gus's skiing style, and the bagginess of T-Wall
The thrill he gets from competing, he wouldn't change it for anything
