FIS screwing with skiing again...

Yeah the olypics is especially har on snowboard pipe and 2014 will definetly happen to all skies and snowboarder. They can't use a logo on their equipment that is visible to the human eye on TV or at the location. Even during an interview.
 
On one hand, this is good because it can (hopefully) give sponsors incentive to stop pushing their riders into competing (huge buzz kill) and direct funding towards more creative marketing outlets. On the other hand, we are talking about FIS here. Meaning that any regulations they implicate aren't coming from a place of reason. So even if this particular instance could potentially (by some stretch) have beneficial results, it is doing so superficially.

In other words...

Best case scenario: FIS is bad. Does something bad. Accidentally has positive outcome.

Worst case scenario: Fis is bad. Does something bad. People keep giving a shit about competitions.

10/10 Great post

IMO Olympics is a whole other level of skiing. scratch brands, you are representing a country, I also believe that at other competitions, like dew and x games, they will remain allowing sponsor advertisement so that will allow companies to advertise their brands at contests, especially not during Olympic years,
