I took it down -- no need to have two threads on the same topic. Plus this one has the link to the Freeskier article.

I doubt this a lot since Williams is the TM and he filmed his introduction to the team edit, plus Veilleux is dope as fuck

Who knows, he said he likes playing with media. He wants all the ns kids to shit their pants when they see him on TC.

Definitely surprising news, did not see this one coming whatsoever. I'm stoked he's on Nordica, but also I am greatly saddened by his TC absence. Considering how they occasionally ride with riders who aren't on Line, hopefully this statement is incorrect

Are we talking about the freeskier one? I read it and didn't see it, even ctrl+F'd line and ltc and didn't see anything about him not filming with them.

it seems like Nordica has got some pretty strong hate towards Line. trying to steal all their athletes. Evan, Jeremie, Ian, who's next Will Wesson?

Ugh I'm really kinda pissed about this. Ian played a key role in the Traveling Circus. It's good for him I guess. It makes a lot of sense because he's always at Sugarbush with Evan and the rest of the Intelligent group. Hopefully he keeps the weak going and an occasional TC appearance would be great.
