SnowshoeThompsonyou should give them weed brownies so they're more chyll
lonewolf_I get that there are still trends and stuff in freeskiing but I like them a whole lot better than the ones in ski racing. I guess what I want to say is I'm sorry for ski racers being such dicks.
MinggWe do different sports and the mentality of these sports are completely opposite.
Racing is standardized to hell and back so the mentality is so much more strict. That's why some racers may come across as uptight.
To you that comes across as them being a dick but to them it's being focused and training to be the best. If you're a racer, you're on a team and competing. People don't just race for fun.
Freesking is about creativity, style, etc. and it's not as restricted. That's why freeskiers in general seem to be more laid back. I'm not trying to say freeskiers aren't focused but most people who freeski aren't competing. It's mostly a recreational sport so there's a lot less pressure to be the best(sorta).
So I guess what I'm trying to say is that the nature of both sports form complete opposite personalities. And this is what I think makes racers and freeskiers clash so much.
You prefer the laid back style of freeskiing and that's just who you are. You like freeskiing and not racing. That doesn't mean racers suck or that they're wrong or anything. I've met a lot of really awesome racers and you can't judge them all because of a few dicks. Just putting this out there, racers usually are no more annoying than freeskiers.
lonewolf_rock the rasta colors and spread good vibes
Sh4dowSSX type racing would be fun.
dingusI made a Facebook page trolling ski racers it was actually called SKI RACERS SUCK its probably still there although i was like 10 or something when I made it so the trolls are probably gay as aids but i still trolled good its something that I'm really proud of
Chubz.they could out ski you in the blink of an eye so complaining about them doesn't really do anything.

VerticalDroptechnically, you should thank a ski racer. without them, there probably wouldnt be a lot of the pros you see today. freestyle was all about rebelling from the norm of the ski world ex: ski racers.
so next time, thank a racer!

VeryDillHow it is for my mountain anyway.
Racing coaches: mixed. Either chill or douchebags
Racing kids: mostly nice and cool people. A couple spoiled kids but overall pretty good.
Freestyle coaches: the ones I've talked to/skied with were mad cool people.
Freestyle kids: 50-50. Seems to be spoiled jackasses mixed with some of the nicest people on the mountain.
KravtZNot to mention there are WAY more hot girls who race.
.FRY.fuck you. I'm a racer.
