Daffy "Butters" are not real butters

hubbardsi dont think that detracts from the difficulty of having to only butter one ski with only the strength of your thigh
but i agree theyre annoying to watch

pinkcamo1000nobody butters their toast with two knives pointing different directions.

Sharko... but nobody butters their toast with 2 parallel knives either

teamdummyWhat if you don’t even use knives to butter toast???

Now what?

pinkcamo1000Ok if you like doing this trick and think it's fun that is totally cool, keep doing your thing. This post is not meant to call out any skiers in particular.

However,

The Daffy "Butter" is not a true butter. Why? Because nobody butters their toast with two knives pointing different directions. The reason why butters are butters is because pressure is being applied to one end of the skis, either the tips or tails, around which the skier is sliding or pivoting. The skis are the knife, and the snow is the toast (or bagel or whatever). Furthermore, what makes a butter cool and impressive is that your centre of gravity has to be way over your tips or tails. This is why the trick is difficult. With a Daffy "Butter," you stay centred the whole time, and the way your skis are interacting with the snow is not at all like how a knife butters toast.

I know trick names are pretty silly, but these should really be called Daffy Slides or Daffy Spins.

KrongosI think pretzels should be called reverts because a pretzel makes no sense. Also, what does a sleazy background dancer from the 2000s have to do with a front swap to 270 out? Why is an ollie called and ollie but a kickflip isn't called a Rodney? And so forth.

DeebieSkeebiesFreeskiing in the early to mid 2000s: "yo that was sick, erryones got their own style and doing things how they want"

Freeskiing in 2019: "Ski however you want.....WAIT not like that, thats not okay"

L.U.P.E.False. It’s very real

DIRTYBUBBLEThe fact that going backwards on skis is called switch and not fakie is stupid as well. We’re literally the only sport that does that

SofaKingSicknaw, snowboarding usually says switch as well

also "fakie" probably didn't stick because it is just such a lame word. sounds like it was coined by some douche wearing an upside down backwards visor on a 90s deodorant commercial. let's call it going fakie, braaaah
