Quick question, what makes Magnus and all the other new wave skiers ski the way they do? (Ex. Arm positioning, leg positioning,...)

Centered stance. Impecable balance. Hip steeze.

get track pants, drop your poles, drag your hands as much as possible, and land every trick arms out; full-crane style

bonus: weird hat/sunglass combo & say things like swerve, lit, & skrrt

No tricks bigger than a 540 either and always shuffle the landings

Putting mumble rap in every edit of yours and throwing your arms like you're telling on yourself.

Do that with track pants and you're most of the way there.

You need to ski with your feet crazy close together, butter your way down the mountain, If your on a rail you MUST manual or press

Truu, this new wave term is starting to get really misleading. That’s how I always defined it but it seems like half the time people use the term new wave just to put skiers that they don’t like into a box. The new wave skier isn’t even really a thing, it’s just natural progression of skiing. Is mango new wave? He rides on3p and does butters. Henrik and phil do butters, Are they new wave? Max hill did butters was he new wave? Nope it’s not as simple as that. The issue with the term is everyone has a different definition and people have shifted the definition into more of meme. The only one I could think that everyone agrees is newwave is magnus.

New Wave? There is no new. It's all been done before; pretty much anyway.
Just have a good time and do it however it makes you feel good! Yes. If it feels good, do it!

Wabs looks like my mom's Asperberger students who get dressed by their parents... Then he snuck a durag in his backpack.
