i only say this because i personally dont like the whole rasta thing. i used to watch cr johnsons part in pop yer bottlez on mute because i hate sean paul so much. i feel like rasta is strong now but will die pretty soon like the gorilla steeze phase. tanner hall pretty much introduced both of those.

tall t's: not even close
bandanas: are you fucking stupid?
bandana out the back pocket: correct
one pieces: still rock OP is just jelly
studded belts: where these actually ever in?
ski magazines: wrong again
cameras with handles: wrong again
those hats with strings: many ppl still rock
those head bands with strings: never saw one
gorilla steeze: WILL NEVER DIE THEED FTW
suits with busy patterns: have you seen any outerwear?

Lesson Learned

OP is fucking stupid

tall t's: i just dont see as many as a few years ago. theyll still be around for a while i think and tall stuff definitely isnt going anywhere
bandanas: ive been seeing a lot of baclavas lately and i think bandanas look stupid and make you look like a cowbow
one pieces: i think they are sick i just dont see them anywhere
studded belts: yes i saw a few people with them a while ago.
ski magazines: nobody cares as much about magazines
cameras with handles: im not a videographer so i could be wrong but i see a lot of those photo looking cameras instead
those hats with strings: could be, i just dont see many wearing them
those head bands with strings: i think thall used to wear these all the time
gorilla steeze: one person is doing it so that would fall under the category of dieing
suits with busy patterns: im talking about patterns like the magic suit etc. not patches of colours

1. learn to spell dying idiot

2. just because you don't like it, or used to like it and don't does not mean it's out of style

3. a few people with studded belts doesn't mean they were very popular

4. just as many people buy ski mags If anything they are more popular

5. you mean camcorder instead of "camera with handle" or am I interpreting your stupidity wrong

6. "photo looking cameras" you mean DSLRs? They are more popular because they are generally more technologically advanced than camcorders, but you seem to be a camera noob so fuck it

7. You posted this thread already about Tall Tees and that was nearly as stupid, please stop.

There used to be this trend where people enjoyed skiing more than dressing up for it.

Died about 5 years ago I think.

My dad told me back in the 60's and 70's girls would ski in really tight ski jackets and pants instead of doing the super baggy look that is around now. Oh and since they didn't have helmets back then they would let their hair flow too.

It was a better time.

calm down bud...

as a filmer who pays attention to this shit I would say that the handycam era has ended and (not counting gopros) most edits I see now were filmed with a DSLR (and most of the time combined with a glidecam)

How about everyone that has posted so far with an opinion, you tell us when you started to get into park skiing.

The rest of us will laugh at your n00bness and can take bets to see how many of you are talking out of your asses. Sound good?

Asking the kids of NS about the history of freeskiing is like asking a Middle Eastern woman about the history of women's rights.
