I still fail to be THAT impressed by AD. Yeah it's cool when he actually flexes the ski, but half the time it's wishy washy and gross. I don't care if you can 180 after the trick, it's not that great. Tail butter 3 is sick though

watch closely on the first zero spin at :52. dude goes in switch, throws his skis totally sideways skidding off the lip and somehow reverts back. that and everything on the groomers 1:16-1:34 just shows insanely good edge and buttering control at high speeds. i don't want to be a dick, but if you don't recognize how good AD is at skiing you probably don't get out of the park much



and here's a bunch of other delorme edits because i'm procrastinating from studying for finals.

Where did I say I thought he was bad? Anyways I'm sticking to my guns, shuffles really don't impress me, actual butters do. Both appear in that edit. Plus the song is overused.

And I ski 75% of the time out of the park. I'd gladly challenge you to a chinese downhill to settle it :)

official rules:
all participants click out of skis. they get lined up so the noses are at the same level. everyone starts facing uphill, away from the hill. on "go", both skiers run to their skis and click in. the race begins from there. pushing/shoving is allowed

A two person chinese downhill doesn't count. Both participants are therefore required to recruit 10 additional chinese dowhnillers.
