Is anyone still at 100% so far? If so, let us know! https://www.newschoolers.com/videos/watch/863415/Embed-Code Kim Boberg vs Jeremy Pancras Teaser. Oh and his street skills… pretty hard to beat. But honestly, like Dale and Noah, I’m just hyped to see him skiing again. His video output is frankly amazing. The range of locations he pops up in and crews he shreds with doubly so. He skis pow, he skis street, he slays park too....
Finalists from over 22 home resorts submitted short edits simulating a slopestyle competition run. Stevens had two really solid nines with a Japan and a tail grab. Ethan Swadburg (Breckenridge) stomped a pretty flawless competition run, said Spence. His jumps were also extremely tech and done with a good variety of grabs and an impressive execution. A very enjoyable run to watch, said Meader. Bercovitch broke the mold with his submission....
Tomorrow’s is not one of them. His backslide and shifty games are unmatched and he can get on some crazy axis too. In other words, he’s a social media wet dream. Dan is pretty much a film guy, despite the occasional frustrating day on the comp circuit. And it’s all good content too. It’s anyone’s guess how far he could go in this thing. He’s from Vermont, that’s about all I got from him (via Walker)....
It drops the night before each game, with exclusive content, words from the riders and more. The Slvsh Cup has also meant some insane social media clips from the crew in the meantime. Jake, this is fucked… https://www.instagram.com/p/BR3e-H5F1Rq/?taken-by=newschoolers Candide continues to dominate the social media game. That isn’t news by a long shot, but even by his standards, this line is ridiculous. I’m stoked to see that ‘something from nothing’ mentality continue to grow in skiing....
Wind was also causing some serious speed issues making for a pretty poor event to say the least. To be clear, I mean no disrespect to the riders in saying any of this. They deserve mad props for putting up with what they were given and the top runs were frankly insane. FIS need to sort their shit out and fast, thank fuck for the upcoming Slvsh Cup. Neither was properly clean either....
All photos: Rachel Bock/Slvsh Welcome to our pre-game coverage of the Slvsh Cup Grandvalira 2017. It’s no secret that Slvsh Cups have only been sporadically covered by the ski media world. The games themselves stand alone and are freely available, making your traditional recap style comp coverage somewhat redundant. He’s got a super clean style and a big bag of tricks to match. Perhaps most famously, he didn’t wear shoes at Mount Hood that one time....
And that’s exactly what happened in the wake of this afternoon’s World Championships in Sierra Nevada. “It’s been nothing short of pathetic from the organisation to the course. I’m really happy to walk away no more injured than I already am. We always knew that in Sierra Nevada in mid-March there would be no snow. A lot of my friends got hurt fighting for what is ultimately nothing really. It’s a free sport, an action sport....
The speed was there but the looker’s right wall the pipe took out a bunch of guys. On the flip side, there were some positive signs for the future. The allez allezs and his celebration at the bottom were still pretty hard to watch too. The judges actually seemed to agree about the lack of innovation and gave him an 88. A couple of small bobbles limited his score but I think he’s going places....
On The Come Up is a series in which we highlight an up and coming skier each week. Some of you may recognize them but for many, the name wont ring a bell. These boys are on a shred mish. The kid just gets it. He knows exactly what hes doing on two skis. H: IT’S THE BOMB! Are you kidding me?? Seems that Hank enjoys big mountain more while finn likes to spin park laps?...
Some of us have to deal with the saddest excuses for terrain parks this world has seen. NS member DungeonMaster did an interview with localRyan Thoreson about Andes Tower that you should definitely read. Another great member quote, but not quite what you want the reputation of your park to be. “I went a few years ago for a day. EVERY feature in the park had a ridiculously huge gap on....
Brands send us the sticks and we spend a solid chunk of our own seasons shredding them. In the few runs Id had previously, I never really got the EDollo. It felt unbalanced and unwieldy for its size with its more solid, cambered tail and noodley nose. But about 5-6 days in it suddenly clicked into place what all the hype is about. They actually carve really well for a ski Id subconsciously written off as a noodle....
It includes two main jumps, one measuring 29m from takeoff to landing, the other 23m. The possibilities are literally endless. The Riders List This years roster is comprised of the creme de la creme in skiing and snowboarding.
“Stevens' switch 9 was the best and cleanest trick,” said Meader. Marin Hamill (Park City, UT) finished in second for her clean right 720. Caroline Claire (Mt. Snow) finished in third. Claire and Hamill have both had successful seasons with numerous podium finishes at FIS events. “Shoutout to Schwartz for her rodeo seven off that crazy jump. It was the highest air in the competition,” said Krepela. His X-Games level performance blew the judges away....
