If your edit looks like a thrasher video you’re late
I just saw another thread about butters and the dude tried to chalk up the rise in buttering to how “accessible” that kind of skiing is. That’s not skiing fam. U mine as well grab a foam roller and jump on it sideways and call it ur first rail. And I don’t want your opinion if your account was made after 2016

and i actually agree with the title of the thread, honestly if your edit looks like a copy of anyone else's edit but your own, you're late. do your own shit, get insp but don't rip.
but, fuck outta here saying you can say what skiing is, you wish you had any authority at all

I’m curious why you say 2016, what’s so special about joining before 2016?
gravelwell your ignorant boomer ass gonna get forgotten cause skiing's movin on without you
Hey Motherfucker, don't lump us all in your "boomer bucket" . I've been skiing since stretch pants and I butter at least 20x a day. You bastards aren't going anywhere w/o me.

for all you know i’m just as old as you. don’t whine at me, i wasn’t even talking to you and you took it personally.
no matter how old you are you gotta stay with the times, i don’t want to hear some gatekeeping bullshit that any year newer than 20XX and you can’t have a say in what skiing is and could be.

It's fucking joke, settle down, you sound like the "gatekeeper"
Y’all are borderline retarded. I’ll make an edit with trap music and wear baggy shit if I want to / I’ll wear my skate shirts and hoodies and put some shoe gaze or distorted rock in it.
You gotta realized these bastards didn’t invent shit. They’re stealing from other huge mainstream sources.
Zootspace / mill bastards / child labor
Are the big names promoting a more skate style but by no means is it some extraordinary out of the box stuff.
They didn’t invent skating or rock, and sports have been constantly stealing from skating/rock for years upon years.
You think these ski crews are the ones bringing back third eye blind / heavy rock and shoegaze? Give me a fucking break, if you actually went outside and to a concert / involved yourself in the music scene or skate culture you’d realize all of that shit has been growing back within the past few years.
Maybe it’s because a lot of you have grown up / live in these bubbles of ski towns and don’t understand that these crews are just ripping off mainstream shit going on in the outside world.
I love all the edits and movies these crews put out, but anyone trying to gate keep this skate style has a big ol pile of shit floating in their skull instead of a brain.
DominatorJacquesIt's all been done before. Nothing new. What you gonna' do, reinvent the wheel?
Exactly this. By newschoolers logic I’m not allowed to have trap or rap because it’s over done… I’m also not allowed to have rock music because I’m somehow copying child labor? Wtf do you want me to put? electronic or jazz? Country? Are they serious?
Skiblade420Exactly this. By newschoolers logic I’m not allowed to have trap or rap because it’s over done… I’m also not allowed to have rock music because I’m somehow copying child labor? Wtf do you want me to put? electronic or jazz? Country? Are they serious?
I say to those with a camera, produce whatever you like. It doesn't have to be all that. The "formula" will have always been created before, but don't let that stop you.
Just don't copy my stuff, or I'll come after you! ;-)

I get what you're saying but "stealing" is a strong word. Sounds more like they're influenced by some things, which doesn't necessarily constitute stealing imo.

Y’all all late. Skiing never gonna be half as cool as skateboarding or snowboarding. It’s it’s own shit: with that being said when y’all consider GoPros good filming and someone out filming skate style and y’all mad when it’s the most accessible way to film. Keep this shit raw.

ngl bro skiing “steals” everything cool from snowboarding and snowboarding steals everything cool from skateboarding

we dont all come from rich families with houses at aspen, butters are accessible because you can do them everywhere if i could ski pow i would but we dont have everything like you
dude exactly, i just feel like the sport was so much purer when it wasn't about what camera you used or who could butter, it was about like, what spear am i using today? will Ragnar and i get little baby Fredrik to safety in the next village? and no one gave you shit for wearing a helmet while raping and pillaging or whatever
also still pretty pissed at skateboarders for stealing the whole "traveling and doing sick shit on wood planks" idea

I can pull up 1,000 snowboard / skate videos that are exactly like zootspace, millbastards or child labor. The only difference being they aren’t on skis.
Stealing styles isn’t bad because everyone does it, and you still have to be creative to pull it off well.
Have you not heard the phrase steal like an artist? It’s a common term in the creative industry that means everything’s been done before, so steal a style and flip it / make it your own so it’s more personal.
They made it their own by simply being on skis. Which isn’t some revolutionary idea.
Don't get it twisted I loved al their movies and think they’re creative / edited well and it’s cool they’re pushing the ski industry this way.
I’m just saying it’s not some revolutionary idea, they’ve stolen the culture from sports close to their industry, so don’t get mad when I also “steal” the skate inspired editing / rock music and put it in my edit.
Im not saying “inspired” because these movies are much closer than just being inspired by their influences. It’s a whole style they’re emulating, so I’m saying “stealing” but in a non malicious way.
Finally someone that understands! Fr fr! When the tricks were only remembered in the Kvads, and not on a VX. Smh. Times were better back then. The original Saga
