We have to do something NS.  This is insane, I honestly think all of the decrepit old men on the FIS Board of directors should be shot, they are so out of touch.  This is the start to a  long chain of our sport becoming arials.

it's no surprise, why «freeskiers» wanted to get away from this shitty organization, because they SUCK, hopefully no judge is going to be stupid enough to apply for this position

Please keep in mind, if you are going to e-mail or write anyone, please be respectful. Don't use foul language, don't be rude. Try and use proper grammar and spelling. If you just spout off with language and whatever else your e-mail will just be deleted and make it that much less likely that our opinions and complaints will be heard.

The skiing portion of the olympics will just be an aerial show anyway. Shouldn't be too hard to judge a bunch of doubles and triples.

Fucking this. I think that we, as a community, need to ask ourselves if it is worth it to cave to the FIS so we can be in the Olympics.
You must all make your own decisions, but mine is fuck no. This story just shows me that they don't care.

This is why JF and JP and all those guys quit moguls in the first place. Next comps are going to get too rigid, and boring, the judges are going to get more and more out of touch until none of the top athletes are interested in comps anymore and then johnny decesarae is going to have to digitally remaster and rerelease state of mind, degenerates, and 13 in order to re-open the stargate so that luke skywalker can confront his father, darth vader in order to fulfill the prophecy once and for all. I'm calling it right now.

the judges for skiing and snowboarding will be the same people. the head judges will be specific to once sport, but all the panelists will not be. you dont see the judges for gymnastics judging diving in the summer.

I just sent a very polite email to all of the addresses posted, I think it does help them realize that there's disconfort in the community and that they have time to change and start doing things right.

Sending a picture of your penis or pictures of the guy's kids and schools would probably be counterproductive, but telling them that they are doing it wrong it's just fine

Seriousely though,for integrity of the sport I feel like all the dudes that are considering competing should really consider boycotting, we don't need the olympics, and their can only be more BS coming from the FIS.
