44 % of NS is stupid.

Amen. Stupid little bitches don't know anything about where a major portion of style even originated.

If I'm skiing in the park, why do I need poles? What if I want to ski like I skate? If I'm trying to do tricks and rails, I really don't need two things of metal swinging around in my hands. Having both hands free to grab is a hell of a lot easier than being limited to having to hold both poles and ski in the same hand. Not to mention that I've probably fallen on my poles a million times, and I think I rather hit the snow than a metal bar.

In the end it doesn't really matter. If you're sick, you ski sick with poles or without, your decision. They both look good. However, seeing a rider without poles is refreshing. It's different and it looks pretty sick. And you can't just say that eveyone who skis without poles is being trendy. That's dumb... most people ski with poles...so wouldn't it be anti-trendy? Retard.

Anyways, no poles is dope.
 
Hell yeah that is about as real as it gets. oh and dont forget how handy poles are they be used for all sorts of things like making bongs and such
 
i dont know what you are getting at here. i never said shit to you in the first place. hippie
 
thats a pretty bad example... its quite ugly... how bout watching andy in ... anything since breathe and stop? i dont know there always some no poles somewhere.
 
you honestly get so much better at skiing riding with no poles, your air sense is hightened and grabs are easier to control. Anyone who puts down poles for like 2 or 3 runs is probably going to look like a chicken with its head cut off flappin is arms around in the air, it takes time and turns out sweet. I like poles and ride with them but no poles is super fun too.
 
NS is on its period. skiing is skiing. its fun. whether you choose to ride with poles or without them, its still skiing and fun.
 
people can do what they want, just because someone says skiing with no poles is gay doesn't mean that it in fact is truly gay. don't listen to other peoples opinions unless you ask for them.
 
PAT WARNER FOR PRESIDENT!!

i said the same thing about how the threads on ns are getting so stupid you guys are just ragging on skiing and how gay switch ups are and no poles are and this and that, and this site is about skiing in the first place
 
yeah but back when u were first learning to ski u had no poles and as u got better u learned how to use them and they make u a more complete skier because u have to know what to do with them or else u look dumb and without them your hands/arms just hang and look dumb
 
one time, i was in utah, and this dude looked at me, and i said "hi" and he tried to say something but his mouth was frozen shut by the icicles on his beard and his absolutely superb 'stache. he proceeded to tell me his life story on the chairlift, including how he divorced his wife, sold his house, bought a van, which he calls the "stabbin' cabin", and drives around the country to ski different places, but he lives in the parking lot of the Salt Lake City Fitness center, which is open 24 hours, and he showers there and things like that. he was also planning to screw a pair of snowboard bindings to the floor of his van so he can strap in "the cute little snowboard girlies" and make them feel special. then we got to the top of the lift and we went different directions. throughout the course of the rest of the season, i broke 4 pairs of poles. i finally said "fuck it," and i began to ski without poles.

it is fucking great. the end.
