If you don't want to read the thread, then you won't see the videos, simple as that.  But they did really hit it, and as I recall, they threw down pretty hard.

i think all of you need to chill out. its just a gap, if someone wants to wreck themselves let um. but if you try and pick a fight then your a fag for thinking you own it and its your "turf" skiing and riding isnt a gang. your supposed to be stoked on other people trying new things not hating.

P.S mfm really isnt that cool

I love this thread haha. Everyone like "zomg, MFM will kick your ass, he owns the backcountry" haha like, a) MFM is a pussy. b) nobody owns the backcountry.

Dude's killed it, mad props to them. What have they been up to since?
