line's opinion on freeze

[pa_freeskier]

from line's website:

'The reason for Freeze being cut has very little to do with its current size or growth potential as stated in the press release. Obviously Transworld publications nor Ski or Skiing became the size it is today over an eight year period like they claim to have expected from Freeze. Freeze has been canceled do to corporate greed and a lack of understanding, recognition, and respect for the actual dramatic growth this segment of this sport has and continues to experience thanks to Freeze's relentless dedication. The cutting of this magazine is a slap in the face of everyone at every level in the snow sports industry.'

yah man, thats so true. this is a huge blow to the skiing industry. it's so funny how a sport can depend on a magazine so heavily. that magazine was helping are sport grow. im just wondering what is happening to the us open....

skiing is so hot right now!!!

 

[hellmut]

possibly a sign line is going to step up and fill the gap left by freeze. Does line of the money and capabilities to even attempt something like that?

well written, words right out of my mouth.. regardless of the real reason we are at the prime of this youthful sport. these past years has been one of the biggest booms ever..(first boom really). 4 years ago we would have never imagined this sport revolutionizing whether it be simon 20ft up in the pipe. to 100 feet plus kickers.. i mean the sport has changed so much and to be kicked to the curb over economics sucks and thats life, but i definitely think a major ski company like Line should begin financing this operation.. i think freeze was a good magazine that supported the ski industry.. and as skiers should should support it..i think this could be a new goal for Line, and it is possible to be a moneymaker.. i met micah(editor in chief) over the summer, he's a really cool guy.. this news must have been cutthroat to em.. good luck Freeze

we should petition... or hutn down the people who made this decision to kill freeze

 

[$$SPINNERS$$]

i think that transworld should compare the success of freeze magazine to other skiing magazines and then they will see that it is the most popular ski magazine, realize they are idiots, and hopefully bring it back. they are probably comparing the profit margin of freeze to the success their snowbaord magazine, and since snowboarding is way more popular, well, you can figure out the rest.

^im sure transworld researched plenty.. this is a huge money deal that was shut down.. they dont make mistakes that often.. they just realized that the price to make and produce the magazine wasn't enough... it sucks but that's how life is.. what we can do is petition which isnt a bad idea, but some online shit is mad wack.. cause its not credible.. but good offer(there are like 3 already)

^ wake up dip shit. They killed it because it isn't growing as much as the fat heads want it to. that doesn't mean it's not sustainable. just not what they feel like putting effort into.

so they stole the show and fucking cancelled it because they can. fuck them. and fuck big business cause this is what it's all about.

it's like the bush administration caring so little about the 1,100 US troops dead from the current war.

if line took over the us open as the biggest sponcer / organizer that would be so ill. times have changed and the sport is getting huge.. i can only think what things wil be like in the next 4 years to come ..all new companies and crazy new stuff we couldent even thing of doing today . kinda got off topic sorry

'In rode the Lord of the Nazgul. A great black shape against the fires beyond, he loomed up, grown to a vast menace of despair. In rode the Lord of the Nazgul, under the archway that no enemy ever yet had passed, and all fled before his face.

All save one. There, waiting silent and still in the space before the gate, sat Gandalf upon Shadowfax : Shadowfax, who alone among the free horses of the earth endured the terror, unmoving, steadfast as a graven image in Rath Dinen.'

snowmaster you are taking the press release from time4 to heart, that is probably just the excuse, its what they want the consumers to know.

There is probably a bigger reason, like said by line how can you base anything off of 8 months of publication under new ownership.
