NeonGreenSharpiegilson is like the autistic kid everyone's defending but no one wants to hang out with
I feel like Gilson is more that friend that always brings beer but nobody is really that close with. They're always invite cause hey, beer, but they won't be anyone's best man in their wedding.
Gilson supports a lot of things we like, like rail jams, events, up and coming skiers, etc. But nobody is excited about the product they offer. Their website and product descriptions seem uninspired and don't push design at all.

BUT ITS JUST BUSINESS MAN! PRETENDING TO SUPPORT SKIERS AND BEING CORE IS JUST MARKETING MAN! ITS OK, ITS FINE! ITS JUST THE WAY IT IS MAN!
ran into steep steep at Joyride, genuine nice dude. I'm not a huge fan of his content but he gets people stoked on skiing so can't really hate on that. Good for him
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?
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
that youtuber that "cant ski" made it onto the canadian team a few years ago and can ski better than you.
and? do you really think a youtuber who play video games has the same influence as someone who ski professionally or semi professionally? Cal Carson has 12k on ig and id be willing to bet anything that he's selling way more skis than steepsteep

this year I went to 2 rail jams hosted by Gilson all I can say before I always considered Gilson on the same tier as j skis yk cool at times kinda corny not as aggressive and raw as the companies I usually like but they were okay but after the jam my respect for them went up a lot. steep steep was the announcer for the jam and I gotta say no one was more stoked to be there then him always lively asf and just seemed genuinely happy it was just pure happiness and fun just having great times and making the best memories with dudes I barely know but we became boys. Steep definitely helped in a way the growth of Gilson while the ski is not for me personally because I ride early rise rocker skis but I still think the collab is totally cool.
.squirrely.In favor of steepsteep, huge fan of cal’s skiing but being sick doesn’t necesarily sell product
that's why gilson only made 50 steepsteep skis and there's 200 threads here about vishnu skis.
People buy pro models because they identify with the skier, they want to be like him and ski like him.
His gf is sponsored by rossi I’m pretty sure. from the looks of it, they moved to Tahoe.
I actually like watching her turns when she’s skiing some off-piste stuff at Squaw. she’s got some satisfying upper and lower body separation and she uses the full ski to slash.
I bet if you hung out in Tahoe city, you could meet him haha
GrandThingshaha fuck.
I'm going to start a new Tiktok series where I find him, corrupt him, get him hooked on cigs and beer and make him one of us
NeonGreenSharpiethere are people way more worthy of a model/topsheet.
he brings nothing to the culture
just give @jems a pro model at this point

Of course there are better skiers but that isn't necessarily what creates the entire culture. SteepSteep loves skiing just as much as the next person on here and can probably still do better tricks than 90% of people on NS, manz is completely for the culture... he just also happens to have an insane Youtube following that you can't not respect... 158,000 subscribers..... and he just helped sell basically 50 pairs of skis in a couple of days! I am a skier on Gilson and totally respect the move and think just because you do a top sheet with someone who isn't the best pro skier has nothing to do with not bringing anything to the culture

The beta gilson supporting events, made in America, sponsoring small skiers and getting creators involved marketing strategy vs the chad make bendy skis and have 15 year olds simp for copy paste top sheets marketing strategy
Yoooo yall are a bunch of pussies. This is fucking abysmal.
If a skateboard company pulled some shit like this the backlash would put them out of business.
These fucking suits at Gilson will do anything to make a fucking buck and you're retarded if you think this is anything more then some faceless marketing ploy to take advantage of probably the only Freestyle skiing youtuber with an actual platform who uploads regularly.
This isn't the direction I want skiing to go and I fucking genuinely dislike you if you think this is a good thing for skiing.
No hate to steep steep, he's a good dude, we live like in the same neighborhood so I see him often, but his taste in skiing is pretty opposite mine.

You sound like an insane person, what other direction would you want it to go. Does him sitting down and introducing his audience to forrmula and breaking down all the bangers for them sound like a “bad direction” lmfao
Hey guys let’s gatekeep skiing as much as possible, never respect anyone with a following, and try and push out anyone who’s not “cool” or good, that way nobody wants to get involved and the sport dies because no one wants to invest money into it! But hey, at least it’s cool!
it’s skiing dude. Also there is no way you disagree with his taste that much, dude did a whole reaction video to forrmula, if you don’t like that movie then *you* are the one with bad taste in skiing lol
sorry for vent but you sound like a schizo man child lol

Oh please. shut the fuck up. Didn't say anything negative about steep steep in that post moron, yeah I don't give a fuck about steep steep I'm talking about Gilson, sorry your reading skills are still at an 8th grade level. You'd let steep steep fuck your girl if you had 1 too hey.
Fuckin defending him when that's not even who I'm talking about. Steep steeps alright he makes videos, I don't like them personally but they're harmless. Fucking GILSON on the otherhand, they fucking suck. Like really fucking suck.

You literally said you didn’t like his taste in skiing so I just emphasized that he showcases some pretty good stuff to his audience.
You still sound angry and insane, bashing a small company for what bro. How can they be worse for the sport than rossignol, who doesn’t even make a park ski, or faction, who didn’t even include a street segment in their “foundations of freeskiing” movie. You’re just picking such a dumb battle when you could spend ur time hating companies that actually do the wrong thing. But whatever I know ur a troll anyways don’t know why I’m arguing with a homophobic schizo in the first place lol

My post didn't even sound angry, you just put that shit on me out of reflection, ur just reflecting your own insecuritys on to me like homophobia. Pretty sure it's cause you're the homophobe, did someone touch you funny? are you okay bro?
Name me 1 instance where I've been homophobic, oh yeah you can't because I love and respect homo's dumbass.
Farmville420You got banned for calling Luke votaw slurs after shitting on his life for 3 days straight because you hate how he dresses do you think we forgot lol
Ohhhh yeah I bet I really offended him huh. What are you the Kook Gaurdian? Defender of all things kooky?
Definitely whole heartedly hate gay people dude, you caught me broooo, shiiiit brooo. I got called out damnnnn. Shiiiit dawg I didn't want anyone to know that was me who dislikes luke votaw, shit bro how am I gunna comeback from that.
ReformedBThats the term I'm looking for "fake-ass stoke" just like the snowboard announcers, fuckin annoying moto dads. "helll yeah BrAnDo you see that"
Its really pathetic how people can't see through that bullshit.
skiermanIts really pathetic how people can't see through that bullshit.
Cause the kids on this site are 16-19 year old rich white kids, with golden retriever energy who haven't experienced any hardship at all.
The biggest hardship in fuckin farmville420's life was getting grounded for 2 weeks cause he swore at the Xbox. Now he's trying to condescendingly tell me why my viewpoint is wrong.

My dad paralyzed himself from the neck down when I was 12 but go off I guess, keep up the edgy shit, it’s super cool and funny
SessionI mean, you do have 2 bans for precisely that.
Yeah and I learnt my lesson that's why my name changed I'm a recovered homophobe. It's very disrespectful to bring up my past problems, and challenges.
goatmasterI met Steep Steep tonight at the bunch premier tonight. He was super chill and nice. Came off as a really nice kid. Put more respect on the mans name.
