Kinda self explanatory. I think that j-walks are way too overrated. They don’t look that good, and they arnt hard

Daffy butters (they’re honestly just too easy to be considered a trick) and any rotation over 720

I hate pre grabs, screamin semens, caribous, SWITCH RODEOS AHHHH (unless ur just tryna learn sw cork), fake butters (sometimes reverts are swag tho, depends), basically ~75% of the “creative” grabs cuz they’re ugly, of course daffy butters, and last but not least royale slides

Swervy butter 1s or 3s right after landing something. Riding it out looks so much more clean in my opinion.

Gotta disagree there, Candide's massive flat 3s in the backcountry are the cleanest tricks out there

Ur right I definitely can’t do them with any cool tricks nor would I try because I don’t like how they look. I don’t hate on people that do them I just think they look really stupid

Oh for sure dope. Candide makes straight air shiftys look super dope as hes charging at like 60 mph. Thread was park tricks though not backcountry. Also, legit flat 3s where shoulders and hips are aligned close to horizontal is extra dope and very hard. I just get pissed when someone does a backflip and throws a japan grab in and all of a sudden they did a 'flat 3'.

And when i say pissed, not really. Still better than me haha

skiing through the park to “swerve” not hitting a single rail, mostly seen by those who won’t try to learn rails.

Oh look it's 2010-12 again.


Honestly people have some dangerously steezy dubs even trips these days. And the lower spins have gotten super slow too. Idk maybe just my opinion.

Hahahahaha ik man im actually super opinionated when it comes to skiing but I don’t necessarily judge ppl for doing those tricks I just don’t like seeing them in edits because imo they don’t look very stylish.

Nobody really agrees with my opinion tho so im probs wrong but thats chill im not the biggest swagster in swag town myself but as long as people don’t un-ironically daffy butter im fine with whatever trick although I will state my opinion on what tricks I think are ugly

people claiming cork when it's merely a slight wobble or they're just leaning in to the grab.

I’m with you. Switch rodeos don’t look that cool. I feel like Sammy C has done some coolish ones with that brokang (I think that’s what he calls that really high safety with that leg kicked out like half a truck driver ) but overall, I don’t like how it’s set and how people get into the axis.

Regular rodeos look so much better. Maybe it’s because most switch rodeos look super flippy?

i feel like Henrik does them and they look cool because they’re waaay flatter?

Yeah they literally gotta be flat to look good, otherwise its just like a mix of a lincoln loop and sw front flip which is wack

I don't really like back swap to switch. I always thought how it was weird that people were doing them in like '06, and only caught on when the Bunch started doing them

Holy shit this is the most based reply I’ve seen. BS to switch looks like shit and it’s yet another example of people trying to imitate the bunch.
