Matt Chojnacki stole Magnus' yellow vest

Not really tryna disrespect aerials, but doesn't freeskiing almost just discredit the whole thing as a sport? I know this sounds ignorant, but think about ski big air. Guys throw way bigger shit, while grabbing and inventing new tricks. Then look at slopestyle, guys are throwing essentially the same amount of flips and spins, but on multiple jumps in a run and with rails in between. Aerials seems like a pointless sport when freeskiing is essentially the same thing but just bigger and better. Also why would you want to compete in aerials instead of just learning how to throw shit on park jumps? I genuinely don't understand the appeal of it anymore. I could see it being much more interesting when these tricks seemed out of reach anywhere else on the mountain, but now adays I just dont get it. If anyone here actually is an aerialist I'd actually love to hear about why you do it, or why you chose to in the first place.

new wave skiers have officially gone full circle.

Yes

I'm pretty sure most aerial skiers are gymnasts that pivoted. Most likely most aerial skiers can't ski for shit other than pointing it into the jump.

this but holy fuck how do aerial skiers get so high with balls so large, surprised it doesnt cause some gravitational wave across the universe

But then again, lots of park skiers are former gymnasts or have a background in gymnastics

Definitely, I have a gymnastics background. Most aerial skiers didn't grow up skiing but grew up competing in gymnastics. They couldn't cut it and pivoted.

Yeah, but think about how dope these guys could be if they learned to ski. Just sayin
