BLandzBeing marketable is 10x more important than being good when it comes to getting sponsored and the graphic isnt totally mind blowing but its pretty cool I like it actually
NeonGreenSharpieno way there's a market for a steepsteep gilson ski
Your telling me steepsteep is comparable or as marketable as ahall, bdog, henrik, cal carson, etc?

Farmville420Also who cares if he’s corny, he loves skiing, and he gets kids hyped on skiing, and introduces skiing to non skiers. All three of those things are good. Sure some dudes are better skiers and more deserving of pro models, but it’s not like Nick is a bad kid at all, I wouldn’t say he’s “undeserving” at all, kid has more passion for skiing than any of us. Literally sat in his room after a career ending back injury and made a whole YouTube dedicated to playing a skiing video game because he had to fill the void
BradFiAusNzCoCa*Skier we know joins small company*
*Retires and starts running the ski side*
*Goes out of his way to flow lots of kids skis and run rail jams*
*Gives a passionate ski YouTube personality a pro model which is basically just a topsheet*
”OMG they’re literally ruining the culture!”
It’s undeniable what Josh and Gilson are doing for the community. I, also, never understood the disdain for Steep Steep. Can’t win with you kids lol
armchair_skierI don't understand why they still get shit on by this website
armchair_skierGilson is the only ski company I can think of who goes out of their way to run rail jams Also they sponsor @GeorgeBrown81 . Also made in merica

Hank_5445yeah but gilson isn’t gonna be able to sponsor a rider of that skill in the first place..
NeonGreenSharpieWhy not promote one of their skier instead? Giving a model to a youtuber who barely ski because of his following of 12 y/o is just short term profit. Why do you think people get vishnu skis but no one get gilson? Vishnu support what really matters.
Ps. I have nothing personal against steepsteep
skiermanIts because Gilson doesn't give a shit about promoting good skiers, they only care about exposure. Sure enough you can expect a steepsteep youtube video of him gushing over this with a stupid fucking thumbnail of his stupid fucking face looking shocked and it'll produce 30k views of free adverts for this shitty ski company.
-DanNick is dope.
Gilson supports.
These are facts. don’t need to compare them to anything else. Ain’t anything else like em. It’s fine if not your personal taste. At end of the day, skiers win.
skierman*influencers win* big difference, you dumb fuck. But hey, let's ignore what's happening in MTBing where brands are refusing to support racers and freeriders who are literally dedicating their lives and health to riding because the sponsors would rather invest in whoever gets the most views on youtube! Great idea!
snowfinderWelcome to reality. Influencers are cheaper and easier to support.
skiermanWelcome to another bullshit explanation to excuse the greed of companies who pretend to support the skiers when in reality they're looking for the cheapest way to promote their shitty products while fucking over the skiers progressing the sport.

ctepas@TournevisRond is big mad and doesn't know how business work

NeonGreenSharpielmao
have you ever seen a gilson ski irl?
GordmanYou’re acting like they only sponsor influencers, when that’s simply not the case.
skiermanThat's because you're an ignorant, stupid fuck.
Farmville420Says the guy who sees “50 pairs of limited edition top sheets” and is somehow convinced that it means the entire ski industry is funneling money into his pockets. You got mad that he posted a video of him being excited about the skis but didn’t flame Sammy Carlson for posting a whole two paragraphs and slideshow just to talk about the whitewalkers… or zahner for posting the same thing for the rat rods…
skiermanThey're called trends, you stupid fuck. Gilson is just doing the same shit MTB companies are now doing in the majority. But yeah man, it'll NEVER happen in skiing despite it happening in every other sport.
snowfinderskiing isn't its own thing, like everything else its a business.
skiermanTell that to Jskis. Quit trying to make excuses, you pathetic fuck.
