If this isn't an awesome show of how tightly knit the ski community is... well I don't know what would be.

So much win.

This will also be an important lesson to ESPN's developers about why you don't simply rely on a cookie to take votes in a poll.

what a joke, specially seeing how some kids probably voted over 100 times for tom...

guarantee not one person did this for travis, let alone had a clue you could cheat the system...

i'm sure i'll just get hated on heavily, but in my books travis pastrana is action sports hero, and twall is nothing more than a really good park skier..

yeah, you're right, the internet is serious business, kids shouldn't be messing with it!

and you're also right about the cheating, the pastrana fans could never ever figure that one out! only NS, and especially NSG has the required intellect to pull off hacks like this!

Hopefully when tom is done with park riding monster will give him money to play with planes, helicopters, cars, trucks etc etc
Then will he be an action sports star in your books?

Tom's doing the hard grind at the moment like travis did 10 years ago when he was dominating moto and fmx.

So true. Out of Pastrana's 3 million FB fans not one could have possibly figured out our highly advanced hax system. This proves that the skiing community is filled with pure genius. Well done chaps.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tom_Wallisch


bahahhahaa yep, definitely a joke... I love wallisch, he's got great style and fucking kills it in the park, but common.. Travis Pastrana is a straight up legend, and comparable to evil Knievel..


"Pastrana's accomplishments are already legend: world freestyle champion at age 14, five-time U.S. amateur motocross champion, two-time Canadian amateur motocross champion, youngest rider ever to represent the United States at the Motocross des Nations in France, 125cc pro national outdoor champion, 125cc East Supercross Series champion, and most successful competitor in the history of X Games freestyle motocross.

He's pretty amazing on four wheels, too, as he's demonstrated with his four consecutive championships in the Rally America Series. "

ya the other day i was going through a box full of old ski movies and in there was the original revelation 199 movie. I don't think i've watched that movie in like 5 years at least, and after watching it again i'm still just as amazed as i was when i was a little kid!

Travis is the man!
