I miss this guy in the ski industry. He was always throwing down. Super genuine guy when I met him on the chair at Breck.

It was a shame he didnt make sochi and its a shame he got cancelled for telling the truth about the kenworthy shit. I am happy for kenworthy but you have to be an asshole to assume that he didnt steal some of the spotlight from other skiers like schlopy.

14353523:dolanslebensraum said:Iirc i think he said alot of the US pro skiers felt like kenworthy stole the spotlight away from other skiers and majorly cashed in when he came out.
i think kenworthy probably has enough money to retire by now from all the sponsorships/media attention he got. Meanwhile joss Christiansen probably earned less than 5% of what kenworthy earned, even though joss beat him in sochi.
14353544:RasTrent said:He basically gave him shit when he came out, said that gus used coming out as a way to boost his own image and reputation. Which makes sense, but like he woulda got the same attention from coming out no matter how he did it. Especially being the first or one of the first skiiers to come out like that
