Controversial opinion alert!

Half those tricks are wack. Tokyo drift? Underslide nose bonk? It doesn't even look good. Edge control is cool and all, but c'mon.

Lol at a switch 5 blunt being the sickest trick in the game. Those guys are so talented but they take being "creative" so far it's not even interesting.

maybe for you but I thought the game was really cool and interesting, while I find most other slvsh games kinda boring.

Disagree with this. The game is about friendly competition between all sorts of skiers. Obviously LSM wouldn't be able to keep up on huge jump tricks but Gus/Goepper wouldn't be able to keep up with tech and creative style tricks either. It would force each side to step into each other's shoes and find a middle ground and thats what would be really interesting to see.

I get that but the game is designed to give both sides a chance with the trivia crack rule. Plus, both of those guys, B mack and LSM, do (or at least one time did) have some crazy tricks on lock. I'm just wondering if someone like Gus or Goepper could actually do some of the tricks in this latest game. Sure they could call dubs but these guys could call something challenging too. I just wanna see some contrast I guess, not two guys who's skiing style is very very similar. I already see that every Bunch edit. Jah feel?

this is the dumbest thing i've ever read. Without people like this, the sport literally would be ariels. Go play baseball or basketball if you want to watch something with zero creativity.

That being said, gus or bobby would straight up slaughter these guys in a game. Probably even the weirdest/tech tricks in here, zero spin tail tap and the backslide gap backslide, those guys could land in their sleep. But the bottom line is they wouldn't think up that trick to do in the first place, that's the beauty of the balance of our sport.

Just my opinion but i didnt enjoy watching any of those tricks haha. That was the worst game i've ever seen. Neither of those guys could beat anyone else that has played so far.

Are you saying Nick Goepper can't do a 270, land sideways then ride out forward? Im sure they could think of doing these tricks too, but doing real tricks are usually more fun to them than sliding around sideways with their hands on the ground all day

The problem is that sometime people have a hard time expressing their negative opinions, they come off super harsh which people think is "hating". I agree that there isn't really hate, just negative comments, same if someone said "that dude has bad style, he just hucks, spins to win" but since thats more acceptable on NS, its not hate its just an opinion.

All you fuckin idiots complain about competitions having no style.
Slvsh makes a competition where the skiing has style and you guys start bitching.
If you didn't like it don't watch it, I'm sure the Chinese aerials team is looking for more fans.


But don't try to say this shit is easy, if any of you could do what LSM does you would be professional skiers.


That said, the tricks were sick but I think I prefer something more technical when it comes to head to head competition.

Im not a big fan of this statement. Most people on here advocate that skiing is an art form, and as an art form it is open to interpretation by the viewer. Just because people are commenting and posting their opinions it doesn't mean they're taking it too seriously- what do you think forums and comments exist for? They're here to host discussion, and without honest opinions we would not make progress. If you have something you feel is valuable to the discussion then post it but otherwise if you're going to police the forums and try to tell people to chill out when they're hosting a good debate, just keep it to yourself.

Why is everyone so soft? Sharing your opinion is not hating. I enjoyed the game, and it doesn't bother me that other people didn't. Not everyone has to have a positive opinion about everything.

''It's free, so you can't criticise it!''
Just stop it, you completely miss the point of the ''negativity''. It is not meant diss SLVSH directly as a whole at all, people are just giving in their opinions on the entertainment value of the games.
People have discussed about the Bunch and the tricks they're doing in many other instances. If Nick Goepper would play a game, people would still mock him like they've had for years. It's not about the format. You try to sound like an angel who thinks that we should blind and deafen ourselves just because... I don't even know. Admit it, you missed the point and you should feel bad. /rantforadumbkid

yeah looking back on the rest of this thread I realized pretty much everytime they release an episode people complain in some way, I figured this was disproportionate to what normally happens in here but I guess not lol

to carry on with the discussion, I feel like hand drags on rails are going to blow up this season

I'm sorry, but I liked that game. It was different, fun and unique. There have been so many games that are to their core super similar, to have one that was so out there was a welcomed change of pace in my opinion. The park was clearly haggard, but Maxi and Lucas still made it happen. Sure it wasn't Evan vs Russ epic, but it certainly didn't suck either.

And for people saying they could do half those tricks -- A. I'd like to see that and B. there are tons of games where people call a bunch of rail tricks that a lot of people can do (how many times has a left 270 or a k-fed been called...), just because it was different doesn't means it's easy.

Agree with what others said about the backslide to switch up backslide 2 out. That shit was bonkers.

I liked the game, it was really cool seeing something different from the other games, and It's exactly what I expected to see from these two.

it all depends on what you like seeing in skiing, for me that was one of the best slvsh games yet, opinions can be said but why rip on skiers and they're tricks, you've got a superunknown winner going up against a true style innovator, i'm sure they can all teach us a thing or two
