Ok NS, I know it’s still the middle of summer but I feel a lot of y’all have already been chatting about this so I figured I’d get the thread rolling now. Below I’ve made a couple predictions, many are obvious but some may have you thinking “hey now… that would be pretty butter”.

**drop any predictions, opinions, wishes, recipes, hopes, dreams, haiku’s or clips that you think supports your idea of what will be trendy this year :D **



————--official forecast according to me (young_patty) below :

*things looking very skate inspired (go figure), be on the look out for everyone and their mom making VX street edits.

*we saw the rise of many homegrown edits, crews and premiers last year. With arsenic, Zoot and Jet blowing up the organic film format I’m thinking this year a lot more people will be focusing on full parts and projects rather than the clip to insta format we’ve seen dominate the past.
(If not then god have mercy on our souls)

*based on hood this year and the shit I liked skiing during the season I’m thinking we’re gonna see a lot more wallies, pole jams and tap features in edits. Maybe a stronger focus on the DIY aspect.

*PUNK ASETHIC IS BACK, HESH 4 LIFE

*dark colors and earth tones again. Big pants, patchwork, homemade everything, 90’s inspired color ways, and as usual: whatever skating/snowboarding just did a year or two ago.

*50-50 tricks are still cool, gaps to rails have been popping off as well, weirdo flips along with unusual axis’ and rotations will be big this year in and out of comps.

*More and more street skiers will turn to spots that AREN’T handrails (gaps, ledges, pads, drops etc)- we’ve seen that in years past but I think this year will be a bigger split away.

~~as usual these are just predictions made by me (young_patty) based on what I think is cool/ where I genuinely see skiing going.

if you have anything you’d like to add, argue, disprove, talk down on, pretend you already knew of/started (lol as if), highlight, gaslight or infer about please add to the thread

See you in a few months y’all!

CatdickBojanglesWell they are a great close air support option. Never been downed by an enemy. Can circle a target for like 12 hours. We always had Apache air weapons cover never ac130s though. I did get to leave FOB Shank in a C130 doing a combat takeoff and that shit was gnar.

WoFlowzsaw one of those for 900 with 760ish operating hours it's a few years older than the ac90, what's your thoughts?

I don’t think hours matter too much. Mine has like 1300 and it works like a charm, just be weary of the servo zoom mechanism sticking. A friend of mine has and hmc as well with less hours and his servo zoom will lock up around like 12mm, especially in the cold.

WoFlowzNeckie tubes with a drawstring to become beanies have been on the rise the last two seasons started with boarders and this season became more popular with skiers.

Alright kooks lets fire up this thread with some negativity again, its hurricane season so my current forecast is: lots of goretex/arc on riders who can barely slide a rail, jetskis are gonna be poppin off, unnecessarily baggy pants are probably going to die off (might be wrong), arsenic is gonna make ski boots, and plenty of kooks will continue to emulate 2015 snowboarding by overpaying for p2 cameras, and handmade pants are gonna be poppin

Lol P2 camcorders prices be off the rails rn it’s like every action sport wants them, skaters, skiers, snowboarders, the dude that films weddings etc. Hand made pants are poppin and continue to be poppin I think in warmer climates or spring people might wear things like massive dickies or wrangler cargo pants cause they look pretty darn good and almost the same as soldier pants. It’s accessible and affordable looks good but isn’t insulated or waterproof so might die fast. Arc is the new supreme so don’t be surprised if there’s people rockin it who aren’t rich dads or rippin back country skiers. Thrifted 4xl wing pants or track pants will low key die off as they have been. Small top massive pants sadly still seems to be a trend. I expect necky/beanies to be even more popular. Which I might start selling cause their fun to make on the sewing machine actually. Everyone and there mom has Vishnu’s and On3ps now which makes most people look like trend whores….but the real trend whores will be skiing jet skis or Icelantics because they couldn’t get jet skis.

Tell me about it, they’ve been big for a while now. Most people are just hopping on em though it seems. There’s indyoo, obvi, snp, and a few other girls making em out here atm.

like there’s been damn near as many “pop up sales” this year as there have been movie premiers. It’s crazy to see how big they’ve gotten.

Like are you even core if you don’t have a handmade fleece hat?!

Snowboarding seems to be getting into puffy jackets, racecar sunglasses, and tighter fitting beanies so we can expect that trend to start hitting late season/next year.

-more earth tones/white/black colours
-CAR BBQing is coming BACK AGAIN this year. WOOT WOOT
