In the women's ski category there was no
Mathilde Gremaud
Sarah Hoefflin
Taylor Lundquist

These are the litteral 3 best women's skiers. And they didn't include them SMH I'm sad now :/

"based on their influence on the sport through film segments, competitions, photographs, community involvement, and social engagement."

And I literally had to google those names to make sure this wasn't a troll thread.

Elyse and Parker destroy any of those women in big mountain. Powder is more focused on big mountain. There are lots of women mentioned who by Powder who I would put well above the three you brought up. If you want to win an award for Powder, you should destroy the mountain, not just the park. If Newschoolers starts awards those women will probably do very well.

I wish they only put riders that had done something in the past year. Like if an athlete was working on a two year film or was hurt all year they wouldn't be in and it would let more people who do stuff all year in for voting.

Uh, not my contest. But it is the "Powder" awards. They probably aren't looking for "stylish rail skiers. Fuck, you guys are dense.

I've only seen powder awards given away to skiers who have film segments, I've never seen them give anyone an award based on competitions.

"ThEy ArEnT LoOkINg FoR StYliSh RAiL sKiErs" ... they literally have a category for 'best jib'

Furthermore, ""POWDER staff chose the top female and male athletes in skiing based on their influence on the sport through film segments, competitions, photographs, community involvement, and social engagement."

Seems to me like you just wanted an opportunity to shit on female skiing

Except (IMO) one of the best movies out this year is mostly women. Don't be so mad that Powder awards is looking for something beyond the park.

maybe you should start the 12 year old white knight awards. Then nominate who you want chode.

Thats actually a really good idea haha. I'd probably nominate Taylor Lundquist, Mathilde Gremaud, Sarah Hoefflin, and Emma Dahlstrom. What about you?

Its hilarious you think the Powder Awards matter. Its just the industry jerking itself off, it means absolutely nothing.
