2002 to 2022 20 years of Newschoolers

ReturnToMonkeyDo you remember the first time you did a 360? Or whatever your first actual trick was?

keagan.karstensWhat era of the Newschoolers site was your favorite?

LogiWhat is your opinion on skierman?

AndrewGravesSVWhat have been the best/ most groundbreaking ski movies in your mind?

Also what do you think NS/ NS members can do to try and recapture the glory days of the site?

BiffbarfWere skiblades/boards whatever you wanna fall them accepted back in the day? I know they were v popular aming the general public

BigPurpleSkiSuitOne of the biggest things in my metaphorical travels into NS history is just the sheer volume of posts old posters that haven't been on the site in years now have made. Do you think there is a way to get them to take notice of NS once again? I especially would love to hear from @Mr.Huck who seems to have the best storytelling skills I have ever come across.

alpinepleaseDid you ever use regional forums? Do you remember the glorydays of regionals?

SuspiciousFishDo you remember when Tanner's gorilla style pissed everyone off?

DummyBearswhat was the ski to own back in the 02-04 era you referred back to.

ObwonI found my old account from 2002 lol. Bonscottsbio5. I was a fan of acdc. I used to upload videos unfortunately they no longer exists. I had some cool backyard rail stuff and a steezy cork 5. I only posted 1 thing to a forum thread, I couldn't spell when I was 16, and it turns out I was an asshole.

JaskierNot a movie, LTC they opened this kind of skiing to a larger audience and still do to this day.

Glory days are just that, there is no way to bring it back. Newschoolers was new, this kind of skiing was new. There were no coaches there were no rules, no FIS. There wasn't many people with twin tips so when you saw someone with a pair it was a no way you too! moment.

That said what should be brought back are the local rail jams and comps.

SuspiciousFishWhat about Yearbook and Propaganda? Those are the two OG's IMO.

JaskierRossignol scratches, K2 public enemy and fugitive, Armada, and Line.

danbrownand troublemakers

JaskierJoined NS in 2002, somethings have changed but the love for skiing has not. Still out there as much as I can be, still learning new tricks and still spraying Jerries. Hopefully in 20 more years I will still be doing the same.

Thought it would be cool to do an ask me anything about what I can remember about the site and the ski world in the last 20 years, so ask away people.

ToddlerBodyBagHow toxic is NS today compared to its past?

RRhighriderWhat skis old skis did you get rid of that you wish you would have kept?

Have you ever looked back at some of your old threads?
I have and it's utterly embarrassing seeing post from my teenage/college years. I think newschoolers could have a small side hustle of deleting old threads for a price.

sexyjuliandid people have music to ski with back in the days of the ancients? Were you a walkman kinda guy? Or were backpack speakers the shiz

Tino94Thats soo awesome! This is perfect I've been looking for an old edit from like 06 maybe can't remember the skier but it was a park edit with classic super mario sounds, he was collecting coins on boxes and rails.

JaskierRossignol scratch sold them for rent money in 2006, such a fun ski.

I predicted the future in 2003, https://www.newschoolers.com/forum/thread/22720/candides-is-my-ski-god

NS today is a tame house cat compared to the past.

Backpack speakers weren't to common, everyone had an awesome walkman back then.

SuspiciousFishThe Rossi scratches were sweet back in the day. Did you have the Freddy Kruger ones?
Lol remember when anti-skip was a legit feature on walkmans?

I still have my old GIRO tuneups from 2006:

JaskierClassic helmet, had this pair really wish I didn't sell them.
