Candide: Works harder then any other skier for his shots.

The man was bitten by a wolf while filming for Few Words, bitten by a fucking wolf.

P.S. I'm not here to actually argue about pro skier's work ethics.

 
It's also crazy how he won big air in the X-games and then blew his knee out, clawed his way back and won pipe, blew his knee again and then came back to win slopestyle only to break his back (on a fucking gnarly jump, Big Bertha if I recall correctly) and then come back and win Red Bull Linecatcher and the goddamned Freeriede World Tour. The guy is literally unstoppable and insanely well-rounded, and to top it off despite all that he's not even remotely arrogant.
 
I bought two copies of a few words, one for myself and the other to show my friends who the greatest friskier in the world is.
 
haha fuck i looked up that article and before i thought it was so crazy how he got that shot, but it was tamed, not trying to take away from candide at all obviously though.
 
OK people, beside the factors above... I consider Candide, as one of the best skiers of all times, hands down... but lets remember he has earned everything he's embarked upon and the challenges endured made him who he is today. Yet, when you get that power behind you to fund your dreams and make you as "extreme and exclusive" like T Rice it's a different world. Who can say who works harder for their shots... Andy P serving assholes is a whole lot more miserable and harder than flying around looking for wild life... two different worlds I know but we still live in it. I've always believed if we could put all our eggs in one basket with support, sponsors, money, belief anyone could be super pro. Just a thought.
