This cup was so fun to watch. Props to Walker and Joss and all their crew. Even more props to the competitors.

The level of skiing these days is insane. It’s great to see so many ‘young’ guys with huge bags of tricks, lots of style, creativity, and balls the size of a hippity-hop. I can’t believe some of the crazy tricks set, that were just laced on D.

so much fun

That was a crazy game, so glad that Woodsy was reffing, felt bad that Quinn lost on the questionable call though, I think he would have had a pretty good shot at winning had the game went on

True, but Woodsy definitely fucked up the call on Henrik's back 3 swap safety. Quinn did not get that grab. Still, if I was reffing, no way in hell would I have given that last line to Henrik.

Damn, I had heard the last call came down to a really questionable b4, but that was sooo sketchy. Stoked to see Henrik take the W, but I would have liked it to have ended on a more worthy last set. It would have been interesting to see how the game would have ended if Quan had been given the set back after that call.

We can complain about the b4, but the game should have ended with the 3 swap safety, so I think every thing is ok

It was really fun to come into this thread after each game and drop some opinions and see what everyone else is thinking. Kinda reminded me of golden era NS when SG was poppin... thanks everyone!

I think nobody wanted the game to end like that, or even end for that matter because Quinn is a fcking G and seeing them both throw down was sick! I don't think woodsy wanted either of them to lose and probably did the best judging anyone could've done.

Honestly half the fun of the cup is watching it with others, reading this thread, and seeing different opinions...it really is kind of like a march madness or some other equivalent....this thread definitely reminds me of when NS was popping.

SLVSH is the best thing to happen to park skiing in recent years...I think it really emphasizes why we all love this aspect of skiing, pushing yourself with you homies...nothing better

Remember that Woodsy also let Henrik slide on Henriks 8 even though he landed more 50-50 and shuffled the back big time. They both played a great game and Henrik may be one of the nicest opponents to ever play slvsh, but it frustrates me that it seems like he got away with more than Quinn. Which further frustrates me because everybody seemingly had the attitude that Henrik is untouchable and Quinn never really had a chance, which is bullshit, Quinn was matching him for most of the game, he even got two revenge letters.

I'm sure I wasn't the only one that was glad to see Woodsy be the ref for that last game. He's the best SLVSH ref out

I'm mad impressed with Quan, I knew he was going to hold his own but goddamn that game could've gone either way. It's for sure a bummer the game ended on that note but both skiers had their faults. B3S was sus but Henriks rodeo 9 at the beginning was not rodeoed...
I'm not bothered by Henriks tranny to sw as much as his 4 on 4 off had a massive hand touch that shouldn't have counted, especially not setting, if that was defensive I could understand that call more. Big ups to Woodsy though, he defo did the best he could and kept the entertainment level high af!

As of now, the games have racked up 620k views on youtube. Safe to say it can easily hit the 800k in the coming weeks.



i'm curious to see the potential future of the slvsh cups with that much exposure for brands, resorts and athletes. I think, to the big resorts, this could be a really great venture as they already have the insane parks and accomodations in place. + the cost of having your park with that much exposure has to be cheap compared to other advertising platforms. ++ you get to associate your park and resort to the best skiers in the world being stoked on life. slvsh has definitely something going on, keep it up folks.

I'm also curious to see how many cups could be done in a year. I think right now a big aspect of the hype is the rarity. There are note a lot cups so were all hyped to see some games with stakes on the line and where the athletes turn it up a notch. Personnally i think there could easily be 3-4 cups a year with the same hype.

I think it would be hard for them to have multiple cups a year because most of the guys who compete in the cups are doing comps for most of the year. My hope is that we'll see a cup with more skiers in the future, it would be sick if they had a cup start with 32 skiers, it would probably be difficult to organize though.

That was fucking nuts, never wanted that game to end compared to the rest. Didnt want it to end like that but the iffy calls were evened out so whatever I wouldve been stoked on anyone in this roster winning. Pretty identical skiing but damn Quinn is absolutely filthy, Henriks a wizard himself, make Woodsy the designated ref for every game too.

Thank you SLVSH for making my nights so good after work, best cup to date.

Heyoooo, this whole tourney was outrageous and credit to all involved. Been years since I’ve clued into any park skiing but this ooozed everything that makes the sport great.

Had no idea who Quinn was but his level is right there with Harlaut. Both crushed their truck selection in the final, every trick/line was a joy to watch.

tbh SLVSH is the greatest thing that has happened in the ski industry. XGames copyrights all of their shit so you can't see it all over the internet and cable isn't super accessible. SLVSH makes skiing look fun and approachable and more fun and random. Skiing isn't about having some super organized event it's about skiing and seeing wtf happens. You can see Quan was still stoked even tho he got 2nd and Hunter was still stoked even tho he got 4th. SLVSH is for the people. I hope this brings a lot of people into the ski industry. I feel like money isn't even the problem like people have said over the years. Because looking at scootering shit is just as expensive as skiing (scootering may be easier but still). If SLVSH keeps getting view on youtube that means the more views --> the more views it'll get and since they have their own channel and website. As long as SLVSH doesn't become money hungry and stays OG then GOD BLESS MATT AND JOSS

I agree , people seem to think as soon as you get any money for all your hard work that you are selling out. Selling out is when you change the whole idea for money . It would be good to see money going toward slvsh so it can keep running

I agree with everything.


I would say SLVSH has the potential to become the Berrics of skiing. And I love how they produce more than just games, instabangers, trying different types of games..plus their cinema section of the website with all the high quality ski content right there on one page.

They are the best thing in skiing right now.
Only thing I could suggest is EAST COAST GAMES PLEASE

There were some east coast games this year, but I don’t think they posted them on the site. SLVSH came to my home mountain and it was sick /claim. I can’t find the game tho.

Yea most independent non-cup games they film tend to be released 4-8 months after filming. Considering we're getting close to the 1-2 month break they take off from posting games, we probably won't see it for a couple more months after that.

They should have an east coast park build a SLVSH cup park just and have it right after they close for the season, maybe with east coast skiers.
