3maniaHis run was crazy good. Can't wait to see the whole contest. Anyone know when they're gonna post it up?
pow314I mean he still looked like a complete goon between jumps. hands way high up and riding his tails to make the turn and shut down speed after landings. Compared to a guy like Markus who has the same if not bigger bag of tricks but stands on his edge and just fucking rails. Magnus is a great skier and fun to watch him do his thing but compared to someone who really has top level edge control and traditional skiing skills its not really comparable.

Farmville420Holy shit my comment earlier was a lighthearted joke but you really just said he doesn’t have traditional skills. Are you fucking for real bro? He didn’t get famous for swerving, he was already established as an incredible skier both in BC, park, and street. You know absolutely nothing about the guy and really just discredited an entire career of hard work and top tier skiing because the man threw on track pants and decided to have fun for the past few years. Go watch his old videos, you’ll realize he actually dominated in every single different style of skiing, so much to the point where he decided to literally invent a style. Even if you think it’s whack it doesn’t take away from anything he’s done in the past, which again, you clearly know absolutely nothing about… clueless comment.

pow314Hahaha was definitely a harsh criticism but I stand by most of it. I've watched him since he won superunknow, don't need to tell me about his career. Like I said he's a fantastic jibber, obviously good in the air, and has tons of fun. but there's still a world of difference between his traditional skiing skills and a guy like eder's.
