Farmville420How the fuck do skiers actually just hit flat tubes for an entire day and not get bored.
I see people do this all the time and they wont even try techy shit just switchups and different spin combos. Not even hating but like how do people actually enjoy flat tubs that much someone explain

So many of the days I’ve skied have been at super beat tiny Midwest hills where a flat tube was often the only feature that wasn’t a total catastrophe. We definitely did get bored though. That’s why I do the majority of my skiing outside Ohio now despite still living here

SchizoSkierStiff skis > soft skis any day of the week in the park. You can butter the shit out of stiff skis fairly easily and being able to actually land tricks and hit big jumps without landing completely bolts is pretty cool too.
however soft skis > stiff skis in an all mtn setting.
This opinion is so invalid as you yourself said you haven’t even skied a double black diamond.

I could hit and have hiked flat tubes for hours at a time. They are easy to do tech tricks on and falling doesn't hurt. Why would I risk falling trying something hard on a tall scary rail when there is a perfectly good flat tube that I can try a bunch of different combos and never be afraid of dieing

Because some people are not lazy fucks and prefer to hike a feature to progress, you fucking idiot.
I still see fake film burns being used in HD edits and I wish people would stop. If you don't want to film videos on obsolete film cameras, then don't. Adding fake film burns, grain, or any filters/effects to make your HD video look older is lazy and looks terrible.
Shout out to anyone out there actually shooting on 8mm or 16mm though, shit is hilariously expensive

verynormalguyFront swap to switch looks even worse imo laziest trick ever
totally depends on how you do it. I agree that stock fs to sw looks super underwhelming. Fs to sw with any sort of ollie out or tailpress looks nice to me. To me it's in the same category as 2 to fw, sw lip to fw, kfed, etc. Not an inherently a good looking trick but can be done nicely
I get what you’re saying but at the end of the day why frontswap at all when you could just backswap 🤷♀️

to me, backswap looks better, front swap is more fun to do, less scary sometimes. back swap pretz 2 is the most fun rail trick though, and looks the best.
Farmville420I think east coast terrain lowkey fucks way harder than people think
yeah a lot of west coasters think really poorly of it but as soon as you show them some mad river footy etc. they are like oh yeah that's actually kind of cool.
wrong. being any more open as a whole sport would be favoring them over other people. i'm for equality. of course individual to individual is going to change but in reality there's not one person who cares if your gay as long as you keep it to yourself.
Really solidifying your position as the dumbest mf on this forum

timdrachanobjectively wrong i go out of my way to gatekeep skiing from any mfers who repost dope snow giveaways on their story
Didn't consider that, point withdrawn.
On a serious note, there are a lot of young and impressionable kids out there. I used to be one of them. Never bought dope snow thank god but I did have a virtika jacket way back in the day. People have the ability to learn what's wack and make smarter decisions, especially if they have good role models

I was also a Virtika kid before I understood what they were actually about, kids learn, it’s part of being one. It’s when they let themselves stop learning and get caught in the bs is when shit hits the bricks.

When it’s actually good, it’s good, such technical powder skiing and it feels so good to get good lines through tight shit while getting face shots. Spring skiing goes dummy too
Virtika was a really good price point for what you got. I had a Virtika jacket or two as well. Unfortunately, the owner is the entire problem with the company.

This is the truth. Im in the market for some new outerwear and their spring sale had some really good prices but I just couldn't bring myself to buy anything. I cant support the arrogance.

I didn't know anything about Lesh until the two planker episode and now I refuse to support anything related to the company lol
