it's now super cool to wear a baseball hat (snap back) with a balaclava and sunglasses. no matter how retarded it makes you look, or how far from functional it is.

Jon Olsson is still racing.
Tanner is still talking in caps.
Heath is still around.
Mattman is not.
Everyone has a handful of double flips in their bag.
A good number of skiers have a triple.
Mute grabs are out.
Tail grabs are in.
Goggles are gigantic.
Look up tranny finding.

Also I forgot to mention, this is a little known fact but you know how Jon Ollson used to have (and presumably still does have) sweet ass cars? Today's superstars have rocket cars. They try to keep it on the down low though cause rocket fuel ain't cheap and more and more people are all "environmental."

Skiing has made huge steps in equality issues as well because there is in fact a black man on skis.

Everybody wants to be like Henrik and Phil

Salomon is dying

Coreupt is bankrupt

It's cool to hate everybody who does future spins except Tom Wallisch

Triples

Dub of a box

Screamin Semen on the way back

stalefish = right hand reaching past blunt to outside edge (sort of tindy position) of left ski, or vice versa.

lobster = one of the names given for the "method" grab or tweaked safety that's really popular and alternatively, the name of the dub Henrik's doing (lobster flip) where it looks like a flat 3-5 into a weird belly down, head down towards the landing sort of bioish flattish mind fuck.

trannies = a near 90 degree meeting of a wall or other surface meeting the ground where someone basically angles skis and body to ride the wall surface to the ground and shifts weight and ski position to "absorb" the transition to the ground. Sometimes there's a built up little pile of snow that makes the angle a bit less harsh. It's also anytime someone finds a way to transfer downward momentum to the horizontal, such as in hitting a jump and landing on the side of the landing, or hitting a rail and instead of landing to flat, landing on a sloping surface. Basically, you know it when you see it, and if you watch any movies with urban from this year, you saw it.

redirects = a wallride where instead of hitting it parallel, or with a takeoff that launches parallel to the wall or surface, the takeoff sends you directly into the wall (stept and B&E also like big ass redwoods) and you rideaway back towards the direction you took off from. So, instead of basically doing a "sideways wall grind" like wallrides of yesteryear, it's like slamming into a wall and absorbing the impact with lower body and ski bases and traveling back the way you came from.
