haha "they sponsor a black guy" obviously black and only black is associated with being "thug"- jesus buddy.... your disconnect and completely ignorant assumptions about both what BandE stand for and your mindset in general is pretty humorous. Critique style, taste, preference, skier type, all you want, but you just look like a bitter idiot when you start calling others "fucking retards", no respect for people, forget skiers/pro's. Phil and Henrik are two of the most positive, nicest, and progressive people I've ever been around. enjoy your indie lifestyle and burnt attitude, keep the hate and the love coming because they wont stop.
big respect to Stauss, the guy knows whats up, respect+positivity
