Too many wallride/trannys

PSA: They are not cool anymore... They used to be cool, until about 3/4 of urban in WE and the 86 were tranny or wallride shots. Not to mention the Education of Style. Seriously, Leigh Powis and Cam reilly should start hitting goddamn down rails again! Like the good old days!!!

so what???

 You dont have to shoot 20 of them in 1 season, just find one gnarly as $%/* and make it look good then do something different.

Even if something is the new hot thing, it dosent mean you have to do it all the time, wich some people seems to be doing a lot lately ( from the doubles to mega futuristic spins onto EVERYTHING, presses included)

Too much of ANYTHING is too much.

everyone agrees it's dangerous and there's little margin for error. that doesn't mean it never gets old or you can't over do it.

OP needs to get his head out of his ass. Yes, there were a lot of tranny finds but they were gnarly and cool as hell.

I think the biggest and lamest problem with the tranny/wallride scene is that skiing just copied it from snowboarding. They've been doing it for years, we just picked it up the past couple seasons.

Come to think about it, every new trend in skiing was just a new trend in snowboarding 2 years ago... Which is really weak. Pro skiers, get your shit together.

(of course there are a few exceptions)

this is worse than that thread about men and women competing together. OP clearly has no idea how much skill that stuff takes...

I actually agree. The eighty six still had ALOT which is actually a good thing. I love watching tranny finding , i just like watching movies that have alot of diverse types of shots, and WE really failed in that respect.

I still need to see, WE. But I agree, too much of the same in one movie can make it stale.

I think it all comes down to how creative you get with the shots. But yeah, too much of anything can get boring, but, if you maybe add features at the end of them, or like I said, get creative, there still plenty of options.

There's a valid point here, but I don't know if it's just about transition landings.

What I'm often impressed by in these sorts of shots is the potential for disaster that doesn't play out. Reflexively, we're used to seeing videos packed full of stomped bangers. And the way that we're supposed to remember that these things are hard or scary is via a crash section or something, which we can all agree isn't subtle or new.

I was reading a Pat Moore interview last year where he emphasized the need to give the rider the benefit of the doubt with video parts. There's no question that things look smaller on camera, and the skill level of these athletes is immense. The problem of making people care, of tapping into those emotions in creative ways, that's an honorable goal for a ski film. I think Weight pulled that off last year. All.I.Can pulled it off in the environmental department. I can't help but measure ski flicks in light of the ones that creatively and genuinely stir emotion beyond the rudimentary stoke to get out there and ski.

Trends will be trends. Transition landings, redirects, and all that are just one more flavor to binge on, and experience dictates that skiing will often take good ideas and make them unpalatable by overdoing them. Were there too many transition landings? Maybe. Didn't bother me, but it was noted.

The plus side of our silly binge mentality is it practically begs skiers looking for a fresh direction to try new things. Skiers will step up to lead the sport in different directions, and that's only a matter of time and influences. Can't wait to see where it goes next.

jesus the urban got repetitive, i know those features are technical and all but i like to see trick technicality too. More stuff like max morello is doing. if you watch him in the credits of we he had well rounded urban

That's a hype train I'd hop aboard.

Thankfully, things like daffys and backscratchers never went out of style, so one way to keep steezy is to keep doing the mogul tricks I learned in high school.
