i think the main problam is that this site has accomplished so much and has made its name and now has so many people on it that some of them are the posers you see on the hill, point im trying to make is that newschool sking is growing and is some of the shit we have to deal with when it comes to newschools progression. i say fuck what the ignorant have to say, if their not willing to change listen to what you got to say then just let it be. The riders out their pushing to make a difference, dropping the mad drops, and coming up with the most tecked out tricks no whats going on. besides, so many tricks are so closely related its hard to tell the difference from one thing to another. Just my opinion

but you see it's the ones on this site that are up there in the progression that he is complaining about - he just picked a fight with the wrong guy and is now complaining about it.

i dont see how telling fellow skiers to lick their balls, or fuck their dads is progressing the sport, they may be good skiers, but not good rolemodels, which is exactly what you have to be to be truly progressing the sport...and i didnt pick a fight, i came back after being gone a week and there was shit spammed all over my messages....and i again point out, how do you know that i'm not an awesome skier??? none of you know me, no one even cared to try to get to know me, you just assume that because i'm a non conformist that i'm wrong and i suck. in all reality i'm progressing the sport better than you because i help people see the fun of skiing, rather than turn them away from it

if none of use have every heard of you than you must not be very good at skiing and not progressing it very good. 'cause i mean, how good could you possibly be progressing the sport if noone knows you and knows what your doing? And you are the only one getting dissed here - so we're not scaring away anyone who's just getting into the sport - just you... and if you're just getting into the sport we're obviously not scaring you away because you're still here trying to defend yourself for some stupid reason which none of us can understand.
BAM!

just because i dont have the time or money to devote myself to freeskiing doesnt mean i'm not good at it...i stuck a cork 7 on my first attempt...i have maybe 5 days a year where i do freestyle shit, the rest of the time (maybe 5 more days) i ski big mountain...i'd like to see any one of you have as many tricks as me only skiing that much....and you dont have to be the top pro in the world to progress the sport...you can do that by showing 6 year olds on the hill that skiing can be cool, and by encouraging people to try stuff, etc...i'm pushing the sport in an entirely different way than you, i'm making the sport better, you're making yourself more cocky

right - people who produce videos, represent all over the west coast in competition, and just killing everything they touch is just as good as you who goes skiing 10 days a year and gets one 6 year old pumped by watching you throw a corked 720. yea, i can see how you progress the sport so much... what was I thinking? And perhaps you should meet and ski with the people you are saying are cocky ass's before you go and say they are cocky ass's... 'cause you might be in for a big suprise.

all i have to say is that i learned 12 new tricks in 4 days last year...stuck all of them within the first 3 tries...i'd like to see you do that...and sorry for being on the highest level team in canada for a different sport, it's sorta taking me away from freeskiing, just a little, some back and talk to me when you go to the world junior championships 2.5 years after you start in one of the most competitive sports in the world

i don't give a fuck what you do outside of skiing - 'cause to me skiing is all I care about - so you only skiing 14 days on your spare time means you don't do fuck all as far as progression for the sport goes.
Good for you, you learned a bunch of tricks in a few days - so you did a lot of personal progression, but we ain't talking about how much you progress - we (by we I mean you brought the shit up and now you're trying to back out of it which is really lame by the way) are talking about progression for the sport - which you arn't doing jack shit for. Hell, you arn't even really into the sport.
As others have said - you are just making yourself look more and more like an annoying, clueless, dickface who noone likes. do not try and defend yourself again because I can tell you right now whatever you say I will be able to pick apart and prove that you infact, are an idiot.

i think i will defend myself again...just becuase i'm having so much fun doing this (and it's obviously pissing you off pretty good) ANYWAY...i may not be totally immersed in the sport of newschool skiing, but i am definately part of it...and if i can ride the park, throwing down all the trick i know how to do (which is quite alot, given the amount of time i ski) and influencing people (skiers and snowboarders) to see how cool skiing is, than i'm progressing the sport...i'm not progressing it in the way that i'm making new tricks, or building bigger jumps, or doing sicker lines...i'm progressing it in that i'm encouraging people to keep skiing, or to cross over to skiing, seeing how awesome it really is...what i was saying about you not progressing the sport is simply stated this.....i expressed my opinion, and you jumped down my throught....you said i should quit skiing becuase i expressed my opinion....you said i should never talk again, becuase you didnt agree with me....i hate to point it out, but you're killing the sport by doing that...slowly, but it is happening...if i were any less sure of my abilities and my opinions, i might have left skiing, or left this site...and if you turn even one person away from skiing just becuase you dont agree with them...in my mind, you shouldnt be an ambassador for the sport
