Expert Village Appreciation Thread

[scottvail]

Where would skiing be without it. They have showed us how to ski rails, how to do spread eagles, how to ski backwards, and much more. I can honestly say that these advanced skiing techniques have progressed my skiing more than anything else ever has.

 

[Sir_SkrillALot]

[Parkboy]

*trying to fix shit on my car

wow i'm retarded

 

[Jacuse]

yeah, i was looking at there site and they have "experts" in hundreds of different topics.
Scott vail definitely has to be the most informative though.

 

[Shlogan]

how to slide rails????? i thought those were boxes

 

[Jacuse]

no no no
its how to "ski" a rail, not slide.

 

[skithesprings]

[Parkboy]

[MatRich]

[Canuker]

Im not going to lie guys i use expert village alot for different things and i wish theyre were some legit ski vid's on there because i would really watch those and use them alot because learning on your own is fine and everything but having tips and advice really helps( especially in the form of video because i am a visula learner)

 

[Canuker]

nevermind my comment before. This guy is actually really legit, i was watching his video's and he's actaully good like he is teaching 450's out, 720's, switch 720's etc...

Its so steezy in his 360 vid he is talking you through it while he's in the air.

during his 360 he's like " just pop like that and land and ride away" like during the rotation. I thought it was funny.

 

[rj.]

yeh expertvillage is great, i heard thats how twallisch came to be

 

[scottvail]

word
i also heard Seth morrison learned to ski AK lines on expert village. Shits crazy

 

[who_cares]

no way man. i wish i was half as good as him.

if u wanna see real gapers just watch turbo or CLAIM. those guys could learn a thing or two from scott vail.

 

[scottvail]

If I recall I think i remember scott vail having a segment in Turbo.

 

[who_cares]

im pretty sure that was in the extras. it was so dope, he was skiing rails and doin spread eagles like no other

 

[scottvail]

oh word.

Shit was so legit.

 

[aznsteeze]

holy shit!

look at that after bang on the original video!

i bet wallnuts learned from it.

 

[Alex_G]

WHEN IS THE HATE GONNA STOP NS??...tanner, simon, and now scott vail?

 

[DaveM]

Scot Vail is definetly one of the best "advanced skiiers" in the world.
